Namukku Parkkan Munthiri Thoppukal

Honestly this film is like perfect. I couldn't really find anything wrong with this movie besides the video quality being really bad. This is a film that needs a remaster. Ignoring that everything is perfect like I said. The performances are definitely the best part. Mohanlal goes deep into his role of an eccentric romantic with each mannerisms being perfect. Shari is also great as the second lead. The movie surprisingly is also focused on her struggles and she does a good job of conveying them. Thilakan makes us just want to take an ax and chop him to death. That how much I loved to hate him. The supporting performances especially from vineeth and kaviyoor ponamma are great as well. I loved that Solomon's and Antony's friendship was also a huge part of the movie besides the main romance. Padmarajans writing is also effortless with a great ending that was very progressive for its time while other movies used to botch this subject. A masterpiece in short and deserves to be seen even today.

I am not sure how Thoovanathumbikal received more stars than NPMT - I remember watching this movie one New Year eve and coming out with such optimism about life! It may be a personal choice and opinion. This movie is about human life and love after tragedies. The story ending is one of the best as in many Padmarajan movies. I could still hear the tanker blowing horn outside Sophia's house. Classic.

The beauty of a movie is not truly known right after enjoying it. It is truly known when it stays in your heart, as a pleasant and cherished memory.

Namukka Parkkan Munthirithoppukal (Vineyards for us to Fly) is one such.

When sheer genius in direction and screenplay is applied on a movie of a romantic genre with its theme around nature, and topped by natural performances, and blended with the sweetest music, you will create a film of this nature.

I give a film 10/10 in IMDB when it's not just able to give me a smile at times, but at the right moments is able to bring out a tear. This film makes it happen.

After watching this film you are sure to look up and follow through on other movies created by this director, if you are truly a connoisseur of film, and you'll not be disappointed upon doing so. The director Padmarajan has created one after the other movies that simply create magic on screen.

This one just happens to be my favourite.

i guess the music by Johnson is everlasting too. the theme music of the movie which comes right at the beginning is haunting. it will remain etched in everyones memories. but due credit must be give to Thilakan and Mohan Lal . the movie wouldn have been complete without their performances. one still wonders how Thilakan has not received international accolades or even a national award being the kind of perfomer he is. Most if not all of Padmarajans movies dwell on relationships and are very character centric and again most if not all of his movies are classics. his early death was a big loss to Malayalam cinema. his contribution to the golden period of malayalam cinema was immense.

If you have not seen this movie, then you should! It's a masterpiece and in a class of its own.

A movie that was ahead of its times, that continues to remain relevant and will remain so for the foreseeable future. An evergreen film to cherish and celebrate the sheer brilliance and craftmanship of Padmarajan.

The background score, the songs, dialogues, script, screenplay, acting, location and you name it, all of them are outstanding! A must watch for all avid movie buffs!
