മേരിക്യുണ്ടൊരു കുഞ്ഞാട്
Starring: Dileep, Bhavana, Biju Menon, Innocent, Vijayaraghavan, Salim Kumar
Director: Shafi
Storyline:Dileep as Solomon(an aspiring television/movie director),pretends to be creatively inclined and has directed a few episodes of a spiritual serial for a television channel to raise money for buying a golden cross for his church, but hasnt managed to get the funding.
*He is in love with Mary (Bhavana), the daughter of a rich man (Innocent) and she has three brothers who are prone to violence and who don't agree with their relationship.
* The protagonist Solomon (Dileep) detests violence and does not react to people who are physically stronger than him, even if it means bearing insults. This timidity is justified by his protected upbringing and thats how he gets the name Mary's little lamb(the title of the film)
* One more twist in the tale is that Solomon's mother and Mary's father were in love when young. But his mother married the sexton (Vijayaraghavan) out of rage, because Mary's father impregnated his maid in a drunken state and was forced to marry her.
* Solomon's life changes for better when Jose (Biju Menon) -- believed to be his elder brother who had gone missing as a child after a fight with his father -- enters the scene. Solomon now confidently walks around the village with the backing of a demented Jose.
The movie has its share of mystery and suspense which is revealed at the end.
Verdict:(3.5 out of 5)
Overall its a nice TP movie with lots of funny moments beautifully blended in and I ended up laughing many-a-times during the first half.
* Dileep plays his part nicely without any heroics, but with his vulnerable,innocent nature and with his share of jokes, he makes the movie enjoyable.
* Biju Menon's(Jose) character has a rough "tough-look" and with minimum dialogues ,he essays his role nicely with his looks and acting.
* Bhavana doesnt have much of a role to essay, but manages to glide through it with ease.
* Salim Kumar's story as the coffin maker is intertwined nicely within the main plot.
The songs are shot at some nice locations(probably in Kerala) and though not blockbuster songs, they seem decent enough because of the locale n picturization.
Kudos to the director and the script-writer(Benny Nayarambalam) for the racy and tight direction and scripting with the right bit of humor infused.
*Got a call from Sreejoppol around 4:30 PM on Saturday asking if we would like to join them for the movie.(at that time, Proneelettan and family had come down for a few hours and we were hosting them).
Finally, me, mom and Abhaya decided to go alongwith them for the show; went around 7 PM and returned back by 10:30 PM.
