RE: SC-S33/W3-Movie Diaries challenge| Movie Plot twist|Movie: Drishyam
Your analysis was great! The intelligence of Vijay Salgaonkar's character and the way he brought the movie experience to life are the real life of this movie. In my opinion, the greatest power of visual media or cinema is to trap the audience in their thoughts. The real surprise of 'Drishyam' was not just the disappearance of the body or the change of location; rather, how the psychology of an ordinary person can fool an entire investigation agency is what made the story extraordinary. The way you mentioned that by burying the body under the police station, he buried the truth under the law—this place is the strongest philosophy of the story. While Hollywood or other language thrillers put more emphasis on technology and action, Hindi and Malayalam Drishyam have proven that a strong script can create more thrill than any big action scene. Reading your post made me want to watch the movie again. Best of luck to you in this contest. 😊
