The 2008 Cannes winner speaks …
Nuri Bilge Ceylan, who won the Best Director at the 2008 Festival de Cannes speaks about his film, ‘Three Monkeys’….
“It has always astonished me to see in the human soul the coexistence of the power to rule and the potential to forgive, the interest in the most holy and that of the lowest banality, and love and hate. For this reason, dealing with the qualities of our inner world which cannot be formulated rationally and trying to comprehend it, has always been the foremost reason for me in making films.
This film aims to present that kind of emotional and psychological situation together with a plot loaded with the violence of complicated events evolving between four main characters. We have tried to dramatize the abstract thoughts, beliefs and conceptual conflicts which deeply engage our minds by personifying them in these characters.”
After winning rave reviews in Mumbai during its theatrical release late last year, the film releases today at Pune
Show timing:

Beautiful. Brooding. Black. Boring. Beyond basic moviegoer’s reach. You’ll either love it or hate it! YMMV.
Y astonishing…its natural no….but on one level…hmmmm…it is…
The film is a dream debut…Its unfair that I say that in a way because Nuri Bilge Ceylan is a filmmaker with immense promise…
I really liked T3M…foreboding , grey, depressing, unspoken yet spoken…and so….
