__what do you expect after watching amovie?

and what do you want?

talking about me nothing but something to really touch me,something i do believe,

something impressive enough to let me not only react with the movie iam watching,,somehow it can transmit me to state of living the movies atmosphere ,,and may be still living this state or atmosphere for awhile after finshing watching the movie.
thatis what i define agood movie...

i dont sit in front of the screen to say ohh,,itis abig production they paid alot to bomb this car,and that scence cost must have been over ....dollars. this is the cinema of the very temporary and shortterm joy,, entertainment ,,mmm,lots of peolpe, see cinema only of that side,.but iam not gonna say big words,,,like the purposeful cinema>السينما الهادفه,and the other bad one,السينما التجاريه ..

all i know is that agood movie is that one carrying an idea or emotion or even joy ,merely joy but in away thatis effective and well done enough to touch your mood,,or mind or whatever,,that film which leaves aprint or even ahint in your mind.

...talking about the movie fish tail""ديل السمكه"" ,,the title used to give me the impression that itis one of these days' movies ,,with the same old story of 2 guys doing thier best to obtain the same girl which is the fish here,, though the story wasnot empty of this issue of the 2 guys and one girl,, YET when i first so the movie,,i was amazed ,,it was strong enough to make me forget the the stress of the exams,, the movie in my opinionis is brillian, especially the role my favourite actor amr waked played very perfectionally there.

the core of that movie is so deep, which tells astory of a poor egyptian guy,,who used to think he is leading alife ,where no life can be worse,then after joining his new job as electricity checker"عداد النور" and whatis this job based on in wandering not only through the whole city districts,but even through its blocks and separate houses....exploring its very deep secrets,,and observing what can this do with aperson who has the poet inside of him,, the movie illustarted how could this extreme range of contadictions in people's livings ,,and meeting the kind of families who live 8 or 10 in one room and the others whom thier cats have thier own rooms and especiality!!!1 ..

moreover different kinds of people ,he has to meet daily how could this all not only awaken but explode the poet part of him...
finally i have to confess here that watching this movie at one of the several times i have seen it,,was motivating enough to make me realize that i can not only taste the slangish poetry ""الشعر العامى"like i used to think,,,,,but laso may be i have something inside of me that i want to write down.,,

and i canot deny that my first two sentences in my poem ,,

'' اه يا بلد" they were taken from similar phrases said by amr waked"the poet" in one the movies scenes..
