"Film By Rank (My Preference)" 1.Bridge Director- Anwar Rashid, Cast- Salim Kumar, Kalpana, Santhadevi ---Excellent Film,superb work by whole cast and crew...... 2.Puram Kazchakal Director- Lal Jose Cast- Mammootty, Sreenivasan ---Excellent story. it speaks abt the feeling that we dont see. 3.Happy Journey IFFK award winning Director- Anjali Menon's, movie will feature Jagathy Sreekumar and Nitya Menon in a different story. ---Funny Film yet a lesson for every FlowerTails (Poovalan) 4. Mrithunjayam Director- Uday Ananthan, Cast- Fahad Fazil, Thilakan, Reema Kalungal ---Amazing Filmography,the only horror genre,but incomplete story. 5. Aviramam Director- B.Unnikrishnan's movie will have Siddhique and Shwetha Menon playing the leads about a nuclear family getting affected by the recession. ---Good work by Siddhique,Touching sequences 6. Island Express Debutante director Shankar Ramakrishnan's movie will have the biggest cast in this short's list with Prithviraj, Jayasurya, Rahman and Kani. This movie is cinematographed by S. Kumar. ---Based on Peruman Tragedy.Prithvi has no or low role in this film.Yet so touching film. 7. Lalitham Hiranmayum Director Shaji Kailas deals with a romantic story about a man caught in between two loving women in this short. Suresh Gopi and Jyothirmayee are in the cast of this short movie. ---Extra maritial affires. Boring theme but quite ok. 8. Off Season Director Shyama Prasad will attempt for a different comedy genre with this movie featuring Sooraj Venjaranmoodu and Vindhyan ---Not funny as i expected. To be honest Venjaranmood disappointed. But good begining Shot where we see slumdog and millionaire. Story is abt poor forigners. Good ending as well. 9.Nostalgia Director- M Padmakumar will have Dileep, Navya Nair and Babu Namboodhiri in his cast lines ---I did'nt liked it. But it is not disappointing.Life style of some NRIs is shown clearly here. 10.Makal Directed by Revathy, this short will deals with a plot of human...
