The Art of getting by (2011)

 Few movies are the feel good kind of movies and few of’em are inspirational and very few are like you feel you are into the movie. And this is one such of very few. I started watching the movie and wished that the movie never ended. With every passing minute I was drowning into the movie & wished I never surface up.

A modest guy who is in love with sketching and is a misanthropist, is bullied by his teachers for his nonchalance towards the subject. He meets a girl who happens to be his classmate and they hang out to know each other. They discuss the things where the girl is more participating, and she tries her best to make him speak and open up. The boy surely has feelings for her, a deep one, but its his behaviour that makes him stop. There is something about the guy that gets her curious about him. One fine day she admits that, here is the conversation and also the best part of the movie.

*Girl: Will you have sex with me?

*Boy: <blank faced>

Now how can that be swallowed by the guy like him who is modest and not to forget a misanthropist. She pulls down her best before him to make him realize what she feels for him. Now how the boy does react to this? Will he be lost in melancholy or will he realize her feelings and express his feelings for her too. Love is a difficult thing; & it can get worse if you screw the correct timing to express. You cannot have one fall for you, with the deceptive and embellishing talks. It is not necessary that you express it in a dramatically or royal manner, all you need to do is, express it from your heart.  It handles the next part.

The simplicity, the background score & the performance has such a taste of addiction in it that you just can’t rest with once. The movie is flowing and you feel to catch every bit that is flowing. At the end of the movie I was left with one word, and that’z WOW!!
