Now I get something cleared. Yes, I am waiting for the article on difference between the two. Vanam Vasapadum failed to impress me both interms of script as well as visuals (with the exception of picturisation of songs). There were too much of highlights and it gave a bleached look especially from white regions of the visual. Anyway, do write the article once u watch the movie. Thanks Hi Ram - Thanks for the info.

But it never got a nationwide release. Mumbai Xpress is the first mainstream digital movie to hit the theaters all over India. I will write a technical article on the difference between two - once I get to see Vanam Vasapadum. I tried getting a DVD, but its a hard one to find.

I have another doubt.. Everyone now says Mumbai Xpress was the first digital film in India. But they said the samething when Vanam Vasapadum was released. Basically what is the difference between the two in terms of technology used? can u post an article on that too? It would be nice if you could post an article. Thanks in advance..

That was a good review on this movie. I liked it too. Well, as u had said, there were many scenes where the grains showed a little too much and there were certain shots which looked like highly compressed video with jagged edges. Did'nt expect this kind of work from Kamal. But I guess he'll get better with it in his future films. He's been talking about digital cinema for a while and its good he is done that. Anyway, do write more about his earlier films too especially Hey Ram. Another interesting point was about the Dogme 95 certification. Though the rules looks very strict, it will provide greate challenges to a film maker. Great going Hi.. That was a good review on this movie. I liked it too.
