CLASS vs MASS

[VENKIRAJA]

i think we need to define class here.......if i say Mitya, DevD, Omkara then none of our movies can stand

naanum korean,iran'la irundhu 4 movies pEru sonnEnaa, then Mitya, DevD, Omkara all can't stand'nga

Wn we are speaking in Tamil film section, edhukku paalaa pOna bollywood(xerox copy of hollywood ) ellaam

No yA. AFAIC DevD, Kadhal. Classic and Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind are all in the same league.

for me, even vaaranam ayiram is a class movie in tamil............and it recovered its costs with just A centre audience.......poi solla porom(horible remake) is a class movie and it was a hit in multilplex circles........i really feel, people are ready to see the change, industry is hesitant to give it......[/quote

catchy is not classy..

peterish movies are called as class movies these days

examples of class movies.. mahanadi, heyram, anbesivam.. even VV is not a very classy move..

Ethu jaasthinu solla therla. But, nowadays, audiences have fixed perception in their mindset. Speaking of x, Oh, avar padathula kandippA ethAvathu vishayam irukum. OTOH, speaking of y,Oh, ivar padanggal pure entertaining-A irukkum.

Vk is a person who gave some vareity admidst formula movies in 80's.

its hard to classify him as a formula mass hero...he had given some classy entertainers.

HR sonna Mass films'kum ippo iruka mass films'kum romba vitiyasam.

Nowadays, the story is waffer thin. Heriones are there for the sake of it and a side track comedy is also chosen to fill the 3 hour mark.

OTOH, class movies have taken a giant step towards story and prefection, recent examples are VA, Yavarum nalam, Anjathe.

Mass - taken a step backwards with hero's carrying the story in one hand, whilst Class movies have attracted a different audiences altogether especially the ones that know more about other film industries.

Therefore, my assumption is that, there needs to be a mix between the two, if the movie has to succeed. long gone are the days to ultimate sunts and Bags full of punch dialouges. Movies such as Ayan, billa, pattiyal etc has been a hit mainly because of the mix of Class and mass.
