who says tamil movies only spoil people?

There is always a lot of talk among the parents that recent Tamil movies are one of the main reasons for taking the people and kids the wrong way; the statement though might look true on the surface is not totally so; most movies contain at least a single message which the undiscerning viewer does not pick up! and it definitely is not the fault of the filmmaker!! so I thought I will pick up those punch dialogues ( not the meaning less ones- but the meaningful ones) as and when I watch my share of movies in this piece

I will start with one of my favourites from the movie "ullam kaetkume"- a supposedly fun movie- the best part of it is in the parting speech the hero delivers on their last day at the college. he says " if anyone had only victories / successes continuously , their heads would burst with happiness and pride ; and the small losses are there to prevent that from happening" - to get the true meaning , better watch the movie as the hero talks

Today I got to watch a not so glamorous movie - "thotti jaya"-after buying a DVD sometime back. Just one statement stood out from the whole movie! not the cliched one which denounces the rowdyism! But the dialogue the heroine utters after the hero saves her from a harrowing experience- where she says what every woman looks for her in her man - "ovvoru ponnum ethir parkaruthu nambikkkayum , pathukappum thaaan"( trust and security). I just wondered how far it is from what most people think they have and they need !! I am sure that no relationship can be true without those two non compromisable factors..

More to follow!!
