Left Right Left - Malayalam movie Directed by : Arun Kumar Aravind Written by : Murali Gopy Language : Malayalam Truthful, Daring, Dashing, Scintillating, Brilliant. Hats off to the crew, who created such a daring and truthful movie about communism and communists in Kerala. I don’t know the implications of the movie in Kerala. Also don’t know how the lunatics received it and accepted it. If anybody thinking it’s an anti communistic movie, then its not! Its more close to communism. It’s opening the Pandora box of power, corruption, fascism and money that rule the dark face of Kerala communism. All know it, all see it, but like all common public morons we just sit and wonder, what now? The answer is the movie Left Right Left. I don’t know where to start with, because there are lots of aspects to the movie. Communism, fascism, political satire, current politics, emotions, humanism, human relationships and a strong home worked plot are the characteristics of the movie. As a movie the Direction, the art direction, character selection and acting were the best at times. Moreover, the guts of the crew to show the vulgar apathy of the most helpful ‘ism’ which changed the face of the earth in many countries and continents in the last 100 – 150 years – The Communisms, was at its best. When the common people (I call them morons – The Helpless) support the kindness, logics, humanisms, divinity in all ‘isms’ like Hinduism, Christianity, Sikhism, Jainism, Communism, Socialism they do it because it helps humans and human race beyond the religion, culture, cast and creed. When all ‘isms’ are taken away from the morons by the leadership, which only comes from power, which leads to the greed of money, then comes fascism, dictatorship and repression. Kerala communism is bleeding by it big time. So when I was watching movies like “The Lives Of Others” (German, Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck), “Good Bye, Lenin!” (German, Wolfgang Becker), Buenos Aires, 1977 (Spanish, Israel Adrián Caetano), I was wondering when the film makers of Kerala have the spine to unleash the atrocity of a corrupted party and un-kept promises were repeated year after year. The movie’s characters – Roy Varghese sleeps in every true communists, true human beings who are seeing the wrongness, vulgarity, arrogance of the communists leaders, but can’t do anything. When Kaitheri Sahadevan and SR spent time only to defend each other and stab each other’s back they forgot the state. They forgot the cries of innocent voices from Suryanelli and Vithura. That was just a political game for them. On power and off power. The movie depicts it beautifully. When the movie goes through the arrogance and fascism of Kaitheri Sahadevan, it also shows the strong history behind it. It also reveals the people who stand behind him and the history. When he buys the party with money he becomes the undefeated savior of the people and party. SR who is left political king pin who survives only with his undisputed personal credibility, he forgets communism and gets immersed in the face saving of his personal credibility. Yes communism has saved millions, many lives were shattered, many families were scattered for the betterment of the a suppressed human race but when the same communism takes a 180 degree turn to continue doing it because of the corrupted leadership currently, that’s exactly the movie has written. P K Jayan’s mother is at her best. That mother carries the true communism even though she doesn’t understand what communism is! Sethulakshmy is the person who played the role of Jayan’s mother. I will rate 5 star to her and her role. Superb. That’s a mother’s strength, that’s a mother’s braveness, That’s a Mother. Stood with her son even though he killed a man, she said if he had done it then there would be a reason behind it. What a strong character!!! Vattu Jayan’s character beautifully done by Indrajith. His lover’s character’s handled superb. Girl! The intension of a girl. How cruel she can be. Characterization and plot, excellent. Remya handled it good. The lawyer, Roy’s friends, Anitha also done good job. Certain songs could have been avoided. The one after Jayan’s love lost is just a duplicate of “Dil Chahte”’s Aamir Khans love lost song. Could have been avoided it, for such a strong movie. Once more let me congratulate Murali Gopi for his role, for his story and his contribution for good movies. This includes “Eee adutha kalathu”. The Trivandrum culture and the Kanoor culture, the language is handled beautifully. Congratulation Arun Kumar the director. You and your team got guts, truthfulness, maturity and commitment towards cinema, society and art. Congratulations to all of screen and on screen crew members. Welcome good and serious movies. As the movie says at the last we are the real communists. We are brave. We are alone and we still fights. That’s what the millions in Kerala doing, we are quite, we are alone but we are brave. We understand communism, but can’t tolerate communists and the attitude. The anti communists in Kerala the right wing, this is not for you. You are beyond a discussion. You stink. So let’s cut it out. This is about a good cinema, a good crew who did it, about some people who still carries the real communism in their heart and soul; this is about the solitude of braveness. Bowing our heads in front of you and your creation –“ Left Right Left”.
