Lucia (2013)
A must watch
Was impressed with the story and screenplay. My congrats to the whole team of Lucia to have Conceived a good story and script. Could see a lot of influence in the script by movies like Inception and Cinema Paradiso and editing techniques inspired by Quentin Tarantino. However, Lucia does't feel to be a rip off or an imitation of the movies mentioned above. Everyone has their inspirations and Mr. Pavan has executed this movie beautifully. I would recommend this movie and say it is a must watch.
HOWEVER, in the director's short talk at the beginning of the movie (online), he said "there might be intentions to download this film and distribute freely. way we have taken enough measures to discourage YOU from doing this". Well, I did not like that the director said "discourage YOU from doing this." He Could have said "Discourage Those PEOPLE from doing this". Mr. Director, I suggest you to please script it in a way that it does not hurt the people who watch your movie with a good intention.
Also, the director has sent an email thanking all those who watched the movie online. In that he has mentioned "many ganged up in one persons house and bought the movie once and 20 people saw it together". Mr. Director, please be happy that all overseas audiences have watched the movie by legally paying for it. I request you to please change your attitude. You have show gratitude for the response and honesty of the audience who legally bought the movie and watched. This is a mass funded movie and hence you distributed the movie online thru many online distributors. Would you have done this if it were to be produced by you?
Well, all I ask you is to change your attitude and the words of your email.
