Ready for something actually relaxing? Perhaps the Merchant Ivory team's most gentle and pleasant film, this comedy of English manners at home in Surrey and abroad in Italy is a visual and dramatic delight. Society more or less prevents Helena Bonham Carter's opinionated young woman from experiencing the full glory of Florence, but a frowned-on romance blooms anyway. Everybody likes this picture. A Room With a View Blu-ray The Criterion Collection 775 1988 / Color / 1:66 widescreen / 117 min. / available through The Criterion Collection / Street Date September 29, 2015 / 39.95 Starring Maggie Smith, Helena Bonham Carter, Denholm Elliott, Julian Sands, Simon Callow, Judi Dench, Daniel Day-Lewis, Rosemary Leach, Rupert Graves Cinematography Tony Pierce-Roberts Production Designer Brian Ackland-Snow, Gianni Quaranta Art Direction Elio Altramura, Brian Savegar Film Editor Humphrey Dixon Original Music Richard Robbins Written by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala from the novel by E.M. Forster Produced by Ismail Merchant Directed by James Ivory

As we see rescue operations post a bombing attack being carried out in slow motion, the soundtrack goes almost inert in a show of frozen protest…And you know there and then that Aazaan has something out-of-the-ordinary to offer to the action genre.
Tackling global terrorism and Islamic isolation as seen through the eyes of a tormented Muslim secret agent, Aazaan heads towards its flaming phases of flash-points with the least amount of fuss or ostentation. The narrative knows all the sign posts.
The screenplay by Shubra Swaroop is gritty and gripping, ensuring that every episode stays a step ahead of the audiences’ expectations. The characters speak a language that belongs to the world of terror terrorism and anti-terrorism. And yet the spoken words in various languages including Israeli and French do...
