Incir Reçeli

This film was beautiful. I disagree with the other viewer's comments. This film is not sexist. This film was also filmed in Istanbul not a small city, so I am guessing the viewer has never been to Turkey. Maybe the English translations weren't good. I don't know, I saw this film in the original Turkish and it was beautiful. Admittedly, some parts were a bit predictable and some of the symbolism was cliché, but this film explores a non-traditional love story and it has many other side stories and alternate themes that are explored. I wonder if it was based on a true story and I am very impressed with the writer/director's portrayal of a multi-faceted Turkish male character.

Turkish romantic drama film released in 2011. We can't do comedy, we're really a disaster in the horror business, we have nothing to do with science fiction anyway. But did you say drama, we're really good at that.

When it comes to the movie, when I saw the characters, I said I can't get enough of them. But it misled me. The romance between a girl with AIDS and an unsuccessful screenwriter is told. If you remove the drinking scenes, the movie is half an hour. There are a lot of illogical scenes. But in the end, she manages to shed two drops of tears from her eyes. That's why I found it successful. The foreign version of the movie is the 1970 movie (see: Love Story) that made us life a prison for a while.

There is a bit of sexuality and nudity in the movie.

After I have read the reviews above I have to say that first I didn't find the film sexist and I don't believe that the director supports the behavior of the leading male actor. I prefer to see it like there are men who behave like Metin, and the director chosen to make a movie which includes one of those men. I can criticize acting also, some scenes are really over theatrical (the doorman and the shoes for instance or sidekick of Metin character and even in some scenes including Metin ( Sezai Paraciklioglu) ). But I really like to see characters who drink beer and tequila in a bar instead of raki in the name of underlining Turkish Identity or red wine to underline the "intellectual artist" figure. Besides catching fish and making raki-fish lunch, putting a bowl for leaking chimney is nice choices to make everything real in such a "fantastical" romance.

Usually Turkish directors have an intention to exaggerate scenes of love and sadness with slow motion effects, high pitch music, but the directors choice in İncir reçeli was too naïve as in the scenes of cigarette burn in the tea shop, kiss int the bus stop, rose petals on the floor and etc. time pass effects were also successful. So shortly I believe it is a perfect 8 with all goods and bads.

The film was a good try, but needed a lot of work. I think that, had it been more comic-faithful. It could have been difficult for non-comic readers to get into. As an emotional film, it's perfectly fine. Fig Jam is a movie 'shown value'. Before, I did not want to watch this movie.Like me too, you will not want to watch this bored movie. You will be bored in the beginning of the film. But the patience to follow the film. At the end of the movie your emotions do not listen to you. Make sure you get a handkerchief with you before the start of the movie, because at the end of the film certainly it will work. Turks began to pull away a good movie. Cheap but great, strike scenario. Whos do not like fig jam, immediately start to love, the better. Until now, this is the most beautiful films which I watched..

I would wrote about a film (with few exceptions) if he is not worth watching. This is a blog where you can surely find something to watch, rather than read about some bad title. Perhaps highly inflated rating, maybe familiar storyline and main topic - I will explain this. Film recommended to me by my mysterious friend who I had the joy to see only once in my life.

Extremely simple film, Turkish (bravo to the Turks), with bold methods on moments, incredible performance and deployment of the story. Film that inspires and makes you follow every moment because later it turns out that it is a piece of the puzzle of the whole picture.

Incredibly cute main female character with incredibly sad fate. Film, of course, about love, about how to import creativity in your life, turning it into such. About rarity of the real things in life. With the message of our relation to others nearby, especially the balance between them and our ego. This movie is not light, but it is very good.

And do not forget - good things still happen, though not in an ideal way. Enjoy watching!
