Watched several things over the past few days. Just recollecting a few as below. Obviously did not watch any movies. It is only series and documentaries.
Paatallok Conclusion
- This series was concluded on Amazon Prime.
- I felt this series runs around and needed to be concluded somehow.
- But the producer/director brought the "love of dogs" equation into the picture.
- But if their aim was to get rid of Vishal Tyagi they could have got rid anyway.
- But they had bigger plans.
- After the death of the elusive rebel, they did not have a choice.
- And they thought of going big.
- But I do not understand how a plot hatched to eliminate someone and blame on Pakistan falsely can propel a new party to national limelight.
- Maybe the plot was more complex. I did not get it.
- But anyway I am not watching it again.
De Gaulle Documentary
- This documentary was watched on TV5 Monde French Channel with English subtitles.
- What I have to say De Gaulle lived a life which was never without a "dull moment".
- Every second, every month and year of his life was eventful.
- He was the person who made modern France as it is today.
- He transitioned the country from First World War to Second World War to the end of France overseas colonies.
- He was a true person who was not afraid of any country or person.
- In Second World War during taking refuge in Britain he used to argue and fight with Chuchill all the time.
- He was friends with all leaders he came across in his life.
- He strove to keep France free from American influence and keep unique French identity.
- France is more than just language. It is different to Anglo Saxons.
- He was supporter of rights of Quebec and Mexico and other weaker countries.
- He brought about a smooth transition and transfer of power in Algeria and repatriated more than 1 million disgruntled French occupiers who were claiming Algeria as their own.
- Overall worth watching.
- He has dealt with all persons starting from Churchill to Stalin to Castro to Kennedy to Kruschev.
- I will say they do not make people like them De Gaulle no more.
- Truly a great man. A man from different times.
