Of bygone days and leisurely ways

This post is long overdue,but here goes:I hope atleast some of you were fortunate to watch 'Olapeeppi' directed by Krish Kymal, when it hit theatres last September.It tells the tale of a family which falls into poverty once the zamindari system is abolished.The movie beautifully portrays childhood innocence and the village life and landscape typical to Kerala of the 1970s.Punasseri Kanjana, who returned to the silver screen at the age of 89 for this film, makes it worth watching.She is nothing but lovable as that grandmother everyone hopes to have.The movie also stars Biju Menon,Paris Laxmi,Sreejith Ravi,Anjali Aneesh Upasana and Reina Maria in lead roles.Sadly,this movie seems to have been vastly ignored by most viewers,but I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
