The Irony of Trump being a 'Model' U.S. President, Not 'Real'

The fact that some of my friends made a note of when I objected to Trump's Ascension to US Presidency that He could really be 'different'. So here is the proof, friends, 'not really'. Fahrenheit 9/11 claimed through US finance ministry sources that Saudi Arabia owned 11% of US GDP in 2004 and that data have only made a jump in years afterwards. If Sheikhs of Saudi decide to withdraw all of their money at once from US Banks, US of A would bankrupt. We all know Saudi Arabia as the flagbearer of Wahabi and Salafi Islamic Schools and they are the ones who have funded all incidents of Islamic Terrorism in the world. Osama was their son. USA has to love Pakistan not because of it's role in defying Russians in Afghan war of 1990s but because of it's close ties with Saudis. Every US President has been in 'bed' with Saudi Sheikhs and that will always be the case till the time Saudis have crude oil wells at their disposals and by that time, Saudis might own half of USA. So Trump's praising Islam (no wrong in that) in Saudi, being the main protagonist against Islamic Terrorism and Islam mostly during his election campaign, was only an Oracle's call. So those of my friends, I hope I could rest my case now!!!

P.S. Hoffman & Joaquin Phoenix: The Master

My infatuation with the movies is well known but my involvement with the actors and their characters is even more heartwarming. There are innumerable movies that I saw simply because they featured my favorite actors, however they themselves were not great. Examples could be infinite, however for the sake of this article I'll have to produce something here. Anger Management for Jack Nicholson (boy, isn't he a legend?), Swing Vote for Kevin Costner, Snatch for Brad Pitt, Legends of the Fall (Brad Pitt), Leon: The Professional, Immortal Beloved, Bram Stroker's Dracula, State of Grace & Prick up your ears; all for Gary Oldman (mind you, he is a chameleon). Meanwhile, I started accumulating some of the finest performances by some of the legendary actors of all time. Very recently, as anyone who follows me regularly knows, I grew very much fond of the craft and artistry of Daniel Day-Lewis. He is a fine, fine actor whose study and impersonation of a character is often pictur...

Love and Friendship

Friendship is an aspect of life that’s not controlled by its beholders. Ideal friendships, well they are the things of past now. Many a times we have seen our parents or their parents talking about their old great friends and how amusingly they tell us about their bonding, the moments they spent together and we see a ‘priceless’ twinkle in their eyes…..that’s something which is missing from modern friendships. There are terms & phrases like ‘yaar tu to apna bhai hai’, ‘yaar tu to ghar ka aadmi hai’ which even today invoke something very beautiful inside our hearts but we all know that the feelings underneath them are ‘hollow’, they are just mere words, ‘emotionless’ and ‘impassive’. Well who am I to comment on such an indefinable ‘qualitative’ perspective? I’m one of you, those wretched creatures that are still in need of true, great friendships. Well I certainly can’t say that I haven’t got friends. I’ve got friends, plenty of them in fact, and some of them are real great. I s...

Film Essay: Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2

It must be said that when I became routinely aware of the existence of Hollywood films, the one name that always crossed my path and eyes was 'Kill Bill'. It wasn't very hard to guess it's genre from its poster...Uma Thurman in a yellow spandex suit with a 'killer-looking' sword were very much indicating that it was an action film and we Indians LOVE action picchhers . But I wouldn't watch it, not until a week ago and the reason was that I never quite liked those 'action picchers'. It's very UnIndian to say but I was always more into 'Drama' and other genres of movies that unsurprisingly brought me to Hollywood and World Cinema doors. And Kill Bill I had to watch it because of two people that I respect and admire very much from movie fraternity, viz. Martin Scorsese and Roger Ebert. As much as these two people were fond of each other, I was doubly in awe of them. One a master filmmaker and other, the most popular film critic of the world....
