Wild
Wild is a 2014 American biographical drama film directed
by Jean-Marc Vallée, written by Nick Hornby, and based on Cheryl Strayed's 2012
memoir Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail. The film stars
Reese Witherspoon as Strayed, alongside Laura Dern (as Strayed's mother), with
Thomas Sadoski, Michiel Huisman and Gaby Hoffmann among several others in
supporting roles.
The film has an interesting plot. In 1995, Cheryl Strayed
decides to hike more than a thousand miles of the Pacific Crest Trail alone as
a way to heal herself following her divorce, the death of her mother, and years
of reckless, destructive behavior.
The film presents a multi-linear narrative, presenting
events from Cheryl's hike in chronological order, with frequent flashbacks to
earlier points in her life, featuring her (as a child, teenager, and young
adult), her mother and brother, her former husband, and other people she has
known.
Badlapur
Badlapur is an Indian neo-noir action crime drama film
directed by Sriram Raghavan and produced by Dinesh Vijan and Sunil Lulla. The
film stars Varun Dhawan and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in lead roles, with Huma

Raghav a.k.a Raghu is a man with a past. He witnessed his
wife and son being killed during a robbery. 15 years later, Raghu finds out who
pulled the trigger to kill his family and the journey begins.
Badlapur is a dark crime drama with an interesting game
of taking action and responsibility, of being able to and not being able to
forgive and make sacrifices. The film delivers a top-notch thriller, which
shows how a happy man’s life changes into an unstable emotional state, and the
twist becomes a part of the formula.

as Liak, Huma Qureshi as Jhumli, Yami Gautam as Misha, Vinay Pathak as Harman, Divya

Monsoon
Monsoon is a 2014 Canadian documentary film by Sturla
Gunnarsson about the monsoon weather system in India. The film was shot in
India in the extra-high-definition 4K format with Red Epic cameras. The film
was included in the list of "Canada's Top Ten" feature films of 2014.
Subsequently the film finished first in the audience balloting, of the features
in "Canada's Top Ten".
From this movie we learn superficially about the vast
importance of this annual weather phenomenon to India’s people, agriculture and
economy.
Considered “the soul of India,” monsoon season provides
the majority of that vast nation’s drinking and farming water. (A minority
comes from mountain snow melt.) But while the rain may fall anywhere throughout
the subcontinent, it can’t be counted on to fall anywhere in particular — we meet
people at a refugee camp who’ve been forced to relocate themselves and their
livestock from areas facing a ruinous fourth straight year of drought. Too much
rain can also be harmful: Gunnarsson’s favorite interviewee here, 12-year-old
Akhila, lives with her family below sea level in the southern state Kerala.
When the year brings record rainfall, subsequent flooding is a disaster for
their entire village.
We also visit fishermen for whom the storms can greatly
increase haul but also endanger their lives. Taking a different kind of risk on
monsoon quirks is Bishnu Shastri, a colorful Calcutta bookie who accepts bets
on where, when and how much rain will fall. A visit to a wildlife preserve
reveals that for hippopotami and other endangered species, the season is
dangerous as well. When waters rise, they tend to flee to less-protected,
higher-ground areas where poachers await, drawn by the outrageous prices copped
by such rare items as rhino-horn powder (an alleged aphrodisiac).
Gunnarsson observes government meteorologists and others
charged with predicting the weather as best instinct and science can manage — a
premature or false prediction can roil the stock market and cost jobs. Film
star Moushumi Chatterjee, who starred in the 1971 hit “Manzil,” swans about
discussing the romantic role that monsoons often play in Indian pop culture.
