About Time(2013film) summary and review by Jitu Das film reviews
About Time is a British romantic dramedy film revolving around time travel where a young man tries to change his past to have a better future. Written and directed by Richard Curtis,and starring Domhnall Gleeson, Rachel McAdams and Bill Nighy. The film was released in the United Kingdom on 4 September 2013 and in the United States on 1 November 2013
About time is a beautiful film about life.Before giving you an idea about the film, I want to tell you that A film or art is not a perfect thing,well when I go to watch a film, I don't expect it to be perfect,but I want it to be original,original is enough to make any film interesting,an original, a new idea, that can give you new insight about the world and life.
About time is a beautiful film about time travelling,even though,my most favourite film about time travel is The time machine,directed by Simon Wells,( who is indeed the grandson of H. G. Wells ).I loved the Back to the future series,but the appearance of the scientist made his look like he was crazy or something.Its a wrong idea about scientists. Sci-films that portrays the scientists as crazy,they may have not respect for science.It shows, they are only using the name of science in their films to just earn money !!
About time tells the story of a young man named Tim, who can travel in time but only backwards to the places he can memorise. It was a secret in his family,only the mans knew.
When he turned into 21,he is told the secret by his father,who was then a retired professor and who have read most of the looks using hat time travelling gift.
But this young man wishes to find girlfriend who did not have girlfriend yet.He lived with his family living a beautiful,even though his family was a bit different in a good wise. His mother was Mary, who was strong, her fashion icon was queen.His father who had always time to read books and spend time with him playing table tennis.His father looked amazing to me. Spending time books,music and family one of the best way to spend time.
There was another member in the family,it was uncle Desmond,who was a simple,loving person, who had his mind on other things.Then there was his sister Katherine,who was loving,cute and was nature thing.
But for Tim Lake, it was always about love.Then Tim moves to London after his unsuccessful love with Charlotte for doing job as lawyer.There in a blind date,he meets Mary,a beautiful girl,with firing in her hair,who worked as a reader. Tim fell in love with Mary.They soon gets married,they have kids,first one is a girl called Posy.Then Tim's father dies of cancer, who had spend an amazing life spending time with family,books and music.There was something peaceful about him.
Tim's father had shared his formula's for happiness.Those were -
1. Live everyday like ordinary people.
2. Live each day twice,first by living it just through the trouble of life and in the second time live the day by noticing the beauty of the life.
Later Tim achieves a insight on his own about the time of life.He does not travel time anymore,because he lives each day day by thinking that he has deliberately come to that day to enjoy it fully.
He says," We are all travelling through time together,all we can do is do our best, to relish this remarkable ride"
Soundtracks
The soundtrack of the film is just amazing,,they just perfectly fit with the scenes and storyline. My favorite soundtracks of the About time are -
- Ben Folds – "The Luckiest" (About Time Version)
- Jon Boden, Sam Sweeney & Ben Coleman – "How Long Will I Love You?"
- Paul Buchanan – "Mid Air"
- Groove Armada – "At the River"

A walk in the clouds(1995 is a very beautiful romantic film, a review by JituDas
ARTICLE 149
A walk in the clouds ( 1995) is a very beauiful film. The film was directed by Alfanso Arau. It starrs actor Keanu Reeves and actress Aitana Sanchez Gijon. Keanu Reeves was 31 years old when the film was made.I watched this film 4 days ago. It was on my list. But I never knew that it was so beautiful. The colors, music, the people they are all beautiful. There is many thing that makes a film beautiful. The people who stars, the director, the cinematographer.I do not know why Bollywood do not do cinematography. It is the cinematography that makes the film so beautiful.
A good cimematography creates a magical beauty. It makes the world look more beautiful than we we know it as.A walk in the clouds was made beautiful by the cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki. Emmanuel Lubezki was nominated 5 times for oscar for the amazing films such as Great expectation, Children of man( 2005), Gravity ( 2013).
There is another part of a film that makes it beautiful and do you know what it is. It is the music, the soundtrack. Without the beautiful soundtracks in a film, I can not dream of a beautiful film. I believe that good music creates a bridge between the viewers and the characters, that world, that time to your world and to your time.The soundtrack was created by Maurice Jarre. Very beautiful soundtrack. The guitar does the trick.
I believe that good film can give you psychedalic experience.
I know it is hard to find a good film and beautiful to watch, when everybody is a critic. I am not a critic. I am a lover of beautiful things and I just want to share the joy in living that I find.
Don't listen to the critics. A film doesn't have to be perfect just like life and everything else.
The greatest reason I am recommending you to watch this film is because its a beautiful. A thing of beauty is a joy of forever, said by John Keates, the medical student who became a great romantic poet. I believe that with my heart because I myself find joy in beautiful things.
Why people watch films ? by Jitu Das

What am I afraid of ?
I am afraid of nothing more than dying and I think only when I would meet the girl who love the ake music, art or films, place, I would no longer fear death anymore. But its seems, I have not met any girl who have the ake personality. The girls I met in school and colleges were so realistic, they didn't like me, I mean I am kind of a daydreamer, I love music of every country . I love the sitar music, flute and santoor, I love guitar and violin.
Most of all if anything I love is films and my family. I love fantary, scince fiction films, I just love it, can't help myself. If there is a newfilm, I just can't stop myself watching it. While I watch I am in a another world. It calms my mind. When I watch a good film, I get lost, there is no troubling thoughts anymore. This is what also happens when I write. Now I am writing this listening "balads of paris de lu" through my headphone. Its just me in my room near the garage and coconut tree. Tonight the sky is clearer then it was this week. In this week the nights are misty and majical. Tonight I watch the orion constellation, the four stars in polygonal shape and in the middle one stare and 2 small stars in the right of middle star. There is also an bright star on the left side of orion. Tonight in my room I am sitting in my bed, I wonder what would be here in next 100 years ? Who would be sitting here, I won't be here. What would be here ?
May be all these thoughts give me company. I love thinking. We get bored when we have nothing new to think about. May be thats why people watch T.V, surf net, read books, listen music, watch paintings, sculptures.
That is why people watch films. Watching a good film gives you many benefits- first it connects with people with different characters, a reflection of real world but much more concentration found in the reflection, a film gives you new ideas about people and their behaviours and relationiships with each other. A film can take you a different time as the plot chose to, then you can have the idea of the people and their way of behaviour, fashion, culture and relationships of that time. So watching a film you are actually studying the life of many people each different character. A great film is meastred in the number of people it has inspired to live happily.

Top Science fiction films
1. E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is a 1982 American science fiction film co-produced and directed by Steven Spielberg. It tells the story of Elliott (played by Thomas), a lonely boy who befriends an extraterrestrial, dubbed "E.T.", who is stranded on Earth. Elliott and his siblings help the extraterrestrial return home while attempting to keep it hidden from their mother and the government.
E.T.,The extra terrestrial,
I saw this film first when I was like 12 years old.At that time ,I knew that it as an alien, not as an extra -terrestrial.I did not know that meaning of extra-terrestrial is alien.The only thing that thrilled,chilled me was the scene where Elliot files with E.T. in a cycle. The scene was so great that, people still get chilled watching that scene.You can see that in the picture how magical it is. But to see in a age of 12 year is one of the best memory I have.
2.Jurassic Park( 1991) has been the most inspiring film for me, because it was the first english film I have ever seen, I was like 7 year old when I first saw this amazing film. At that time, it was very scary to see the dinosaurs eating people.
But when I saw it, 8 years ago, I felt something else about the film. Even then I could not see the entire meaning of the film, the chaos theory, I did not know anything about that. Now I know that its a theory about the sensitiveness of a system, it is used in mathematics,biology,economics,physics,engineering,economics and many subject.
To being able to trace the DNA of dinosaurs from the blood of Dinosaurs which was bitten by mosquitoes of prehistoric time, and in a probable moment the mosquito got stick in the resins of a tree, after in a natural event, the tree gets fossilized and the resin too, the resin becomes a amber.(For me amber is the most beautiful fossil in the world and the insect are most found in the ambers.The colour of the ambers is many, but most ambers are found in golden colour.) Then scientists trace down the incomplete DNA of the dinosaurs and completed with DNA s of reptilia amphibia. They made the females unfertile so that they can control the number of the dinosaurs which will be kept in a park called Jurassic park.The owner of the whole park was unaware of what could have happen to put these prehistoric creature.
The message of the film was not to play with nature.
3. AI ( Artificial Intelligence)( 2001) is great sci- fi film by Steven Spielberg. Its about a humanoid child robot, designed to love their parents.It was made for the parents who have no children to fill up the emptiness of a child, who will listen to his parents ,never get sick, never get old.The story is about a child robot David who was adopted by a parents,whose child is about to die for some unknown disease.But after a while, the real son becomes miraculously healthy, then there is a tension rises, because the real son starts to envy David. Then the mother fears that it will be impossible for her to raise David, But,one day the mother leave David in a jungle with his super-toy teddy. Then one by one so many events happens,he meets a lover robot Joe( Jude Law). David once listened the story of Pinocchio by Carlo Colloid,an Italian writer( 1826-1892) He heard his mother telling the story, in that story Pinocchio was a wooden boy, and for his good heart and work, he was made into a real boy by blue fairy. Later being abandoned by his mother, he thinks that he must find the blue fairy, so she will make him a real boy too like Pinocchio. So he searches for the blue fairy, to be a real boy so he will be loved by his mother.Then the search take him to the place he was made.But he finds the blue fairy in the ocean. I am not going to tell you the end,I never do.
4. The day after tomorrow(2008) is a great inspiring film and what does it inspire us to do ? It inspires us to be concern about our planet earth. From the day industrialization started from 19 th century. The pollution by the industries are constantly emitting the toxic gases like methane, carbon di oxide, carbon mono oxide, nitrogen oxide are causing the ozone layer weak, ozone layer is saving us from the all the harmful solar rays. Because of the increase of carbon di-oxide gas in the atmosphere, our earth is getting warmer, day by day. We know what caused this rising of temperature of our planet, its because of the people who runs the governments and companies,who have no care about the world.But,who is guilty actually,its the people who concerns about the world, but don't go to politics or run company. They sit in their home blaming the government.
In the film,the global warming changes the climate of the whole world. because of the global warming, the sea level increases and first it floods many areas of the world, later the water freezes and become ice everywhere. Although in a scientific point of view, the weather does not change in the way film shows. But who knows all the climate facts, Did NASA knew about the recent meteorite that fell on Russia. The sad thing is that the ignorant kind of people are in every field, even in science, those who see only scientific inaccuracy in that film are ignoring the very message of the film.The message of the film was to inspire people to know about global warming.That film was not a scientific paper, why the ignorants do not see positively.
5.'' AVATAR ''(2009) is one the greatest film ever made not only because of the awesome cinematography, but the message it give us is to respect our mother nature, our world.
6.'' INCEPTION ''( 2010) inspires you to imagine, because imagination is powerful than knowledge. Inception is one of most thrilling sci-fi film of all time. It based on a universal event of mankind, that is our dream, we dream every night.We dream in our REM( rapid eye movement) stage of sleep, when in most our dream, we can not control our dream.But some night in a lucid dream, we being aware of ourselves,we can partially control our dream. On,the idea of controlling our dream, the film Inception was made.In the film,its a story about a father( Dom) a dream architect, who designs dream and dream within a dream, who is employed to interfere unconscious mind,which will change a important decision about business,that will profit an another company. To do such a job,which entering in the unconscious mind and changing decision,they go to sleep using powerful sedative, which will help to dream. For the whole process, they enter to dream, the team finds out that the businessman they are trying to influence has an army to protect his secrets in the unconscious mind.So they fight with the army to enter deep places of his mind.Another aspect of the film was to show the similarity of the dream with reality, sometime when you are dreaming, you feel like you are living in reality. Sometime we cry in our dream,seeing our close one dye in the dream, but when we wake up,we call it a nightmare. 
7.The adjustment bureau(2012) is also a beautiful sci-fi film.It is based on the novel of the same name by Philip .K.Dick ( american novelist, 1928-1982) His view of reality and future has made him a great prophet. His ten novel are made into films.
Like all his other novel,this story also question reality, what is reality ? The adjustment bureau deals with the idea of fate, what is it ? We think that god plans everything.But how ? Who manges everything. This film gives an beautiful alternative way of view reality and what controls our every next step. In the film, a David Norris, who is running for senate, falls in love with Elise, a professional ball-ate dancer, but fate maker does not want that to happen in his life, so when she give him her phone number, somehow the the adjustment bureau manages to loose the phone number by David. The fate makers try their best to keep David away from Elise. But David realizes the presence of the fate makers and challenges to change his fate.
8.Cloud Atlas(2012) is really one of the best sci-fi I have ever seen. The director Waschowki cousins and Tom Tykwer has done a really great work. The cast is just amazing.Tom hanks, Halle Berry, Hugo weaving, Bem Whishaw, Doona Bae( Sonmi),all actors portrayed their very well. I love this film, it was never really done in this style and visual on sci-fi film before. The best thing about Cloud atlas is that its not like an typical sci-fi film, where there is no story, no info about the characters.The film deals with the concept that our life is not ours.The past,present and future is connected. By our each act of crime and kindness,our future rebirths.There so many kind of people on earth.Some are kind, some are cruel,some wants equality of mankind, some run after money all their life, some seek truth and knowledge. In this way people are always borning and will born.I am starting to believe that there were people like me who thought like me, there is and there will be in the future.
Cloud atlas has the spectacular visual beauty, editing is done seriously with subtleness.
Inspirational Hollywood movies
2. Bruce Almighty is really a great a family must watch.
3. Leap year is a very beautiful film about life. Its a refreshing film.What I love about the film is that its full of natural landscapes of Ireland. Its an romantic comedy,surely you will enjoy, do not listen to the rotten tomatoes. What I think that the message of the film is that life should be simple and full of life not only showy stuffs. I loved the beautiful Dingle peninsula. I got astonished seeing the ake superstitions about the cat. The soundtrack list of the film is just great,it helps the scenes understand clearly.
+(FILEminimizer).jpg)
4. 50-50 is a beautiful film. One thing that makes this so amazing,that is its soundtracks, The songs perfectly match the scenes.I enjoyed this film more than 500 days of summer. This film taught me that there is always be some people when you are going through bad time. The soundtrack list of this films is just amazing,you will get into the film.
+(FILEminimizer).jpg)
5.In the beginning of the film 500 days of summer, it tells clearly that its not a love story, its a story of a boy meets a girl, The film tells you, not to have a belief someone is meant for you. There are no miracles,there is no fate, there is nothing is meant to be. Coincidence all that is, its about timing that is working everywhere in earth and in the universe. There is no soul mate, there is only person of that have same likes and dislikes. The horoscope is a fraud to fool people in need of something like job,career,love etc. I think that if you want to find the girl of your dream, you just have to be observant a little bit, you will find the girl of your dream,where your interest lies. For example, if you love books, you will meet her in the bookstores or somewhere related this place. You will find the girl that will love you in the places where you love going.

5. The descendants is a academy award nominated film for 4 categories in 2011 and for me the best film about life in 2011. The descendants is very successful in portraying a messed up family in Hawaii,where the mother got accident in a boat, and she is about to die,where elder daughter is addicted to drugs, and a 10 year old scotty.Where the father is trying to maintain the family.
What I loved about the film was watching the beauty of Hawaii. In the whole film,there was a breeze was flowing and guitar tunes Jeff Peterson and Hawaiian songs.
6. Little Manhattan is a very beautiful film.it has also one of the greatest soundtrack that match the scenes of the film. I think the message was to be honest and open with each other in relationships. Some time not talking with each other rots a relationship.Talking is very important. I wrote about that in my most famous post my idea of a happy family Talking is one of the most important thing in a relationship,if you do not talk with your family just for an day even if you are in the same home,its effects the relationship,it does not matter how slightly. Little Manhattan is full of beautiful soundtracks.
7. Flashback of a fool is also a film about life.All these film I listed are films that captured the real life in picture. Daniel Craig portrays an actor Joe Scot: who was successful,but later,his life became messy. May be it was because of his suppressed memories of childhood.Where something happened with him,later he goes to to this home, and reconcile with his family.In the end Joe Scot realize and thinks," When I was a child I used to think that being brave meant that you had to take ownership. That to have a dream and to move forward in life you needed courage. But the only thing you need courage for is for standing still."
8. AMERICAN BEAUTY is one of the great film is one of the greatest film that gives the messages that happiness lies in the love. Without love you can not find happiness in the stuff or in the money.
9. LIAR LIAR inspires you tell only truth, telling truth you can make your life more beautiful,because truth is itself beautiful.
10. " LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE "inspires us to never stop trying. It inspires us to be who we are already.
All these films are tells you that we must love our families,friends and neighbor. There is nothing that is perfect or could be perfect. So,we must never expect for utopia,paradise or a perfect society. At day,we need warm and light of sun and at night we dark to rest. I believe that,in life we need both happiness and sadness. What we call a person ,who is always happy,singing,laughing,we call them mad. Because, we need not laugh all day,or party all night.We need to be what the environment recommend. At daytime,we need to work,at night, we should sleep.There is no need to party all night,drink alcohol and get hangover. Why do something,that you are gonna regret doing in the future.Do something that your future thanks you for. So, whenever you get time watch these beautiful films.
