Kibar Feyzo

This movie, at its heart, is about exploitation of man. It's about critiquing existing power structures, questioning of traditional values and trying to make sense of it all. Our protagonist, Feyzo, pleads with the judge (audience) at the end of the movie: "I don't know where this leads to, you're the state (power), you know better. You be the judge of this, who's to blame?" and in this plea we see a summary of the movie, a man who was born into circumstances he didn't create tried his best to live a life in pursuit of happiness but his initial ignorance, his relative powerlessness and his inability to figure a way out of it led him to become a suspect in a murder trial. In a sense, he's pleading for us to judge the circumstances of his "crime" before we judge his actions.

This movie is a 10/10. It is a pity that the English speaking world does not know about Kemal Sunal. In fact a Kemal Sunal is missing in the Western world, his artistic ability is unattainable by any other actor or actress I have seen. Deepest reverence for what he has brought to the Turkish comedy.

This is one of the best movies ever made !!! It is very funny and coevally it shows the real life in the east of turkey at the 1970's. But its unbelievable funny :-))) "Feyzo" finished the army and comes back to his town, where he wants to marry with "Gülo". But there are some intricacies. His mother don't want to pay the bullocks and the money which Gülo's father wants for "Gülo", because at this time it was tribe for the people. The other problem is "Bilo", he started and finished the army at the same time like "Feyzo", and he wants to marry with Gülo, too. But "Gülo" loves "Feyzo"! But he can forget all of this before one man don't give his OK, he is the merciless chief of the village, "Maho Aga".

The movie has great messages. If you watch it even now, you will enjoy it a lot. The toilet scene was epic. Watching Kemal Sunal movies is always enjoyable.

This film is revolutionary against the long lasting 'agalik' system in the 90s, 80s and beforehand. Similar to feodalism, the 'aga' controls every thing in the peasants' lives, even their bedroom. Feyzo, gülo and aney(mother) resist against the system and 'aga'.
