21

It feels nice to graduate from writing exams paper reviews to discussing movies which influence me to some extent. I am an ardent fan of cinematic masterpieces like Schindler's list, Shawshank Redemption, Godfather trilogy, The Departed..to name a few...

this also comes from the fact that my job demand this knowhow to such an extent. well few weeks back i watched this hollywood flick "21" starring Jim Stugress, predictably the next big sensation in hollywood.

the movie is about a studious and exceptionally talented MIT grad, who aspires to join Harvard School (where admission fee costs an astronomical 300,000 $), but he's nt financially sound and has difficulty making "needs meet end".

Hence he took up a job (that pays him a paltry 8$ an hour) simultaneously starts preparation for the scholarship which would be his wild card to enter harvard, but that will be granted to only one among hundred students who can dazzle the panel with not just their CV but also with that ONE thing that really distinguishes them from the crowd.

Well well...so how does he dazzles his interviewer...thats what this flick is all about...
a must watch...

And just FYI...a bollywood flick "Teen Patti" is being made on similar lines...with Amitabh donning the role of Kevin Spacey from the original..and Madhavan playing jim...so watch for it...shld be good fun..

Cheers!!
