Saving Private Ryan

One of the greatest World WAR 2 movies made ... Tom hanks at his best ... directed by Steven Speilberg (he directed his 1st movie at the age of 14) !
This movie is about values, lives, war, emotions, blood, courage, duty, respect - based on a true story. A group of soldiers at war in europe, got a new assignment - to save Private Ryan, whom they neither have seen nor know. Nobody knows where he is - just unknowingly dropped far away somewhere . His other 3 brothers had already died in the war at different places & saving him is the last chance of saving their mother from some grief & the army would not have to inform about the death of all 4 brothers. A movie well directed, acted - witty use of sound & music - worth collecting.
My learning from this gripping masterpiece : Earn your life ... Know your motivators ...

Music of the night : Humse rahoge kya hamesha khafa (Movie : Aur Pyar Ho Gaya ; Sung by : Sonu Nigam ; One of the excellent songs of this movie - a great work with music, rhythm, lyrics. Very lively song)

Mmmmmm Hmmmmm :-)

Q. How do they express doubt in asylums ?
A. Are you sane ?

Music of the night : Jaana, zindagi se na jaana (Album : Star ; Sung by : Nazia Hassan, Zohaib Hassan ; A melodiously sung lounge-like song. I used to watch the video in childhood & loved it since then)

The little one of squirrel

Have you seen a young squirrel ? I came across one yesterday & wondered how I never thought that I had never seen one earlier ! If I see it next time, I'll sure take a picture & post here :-) Till then, this picture found on the net may do : squirrel picture

I realized we can sometimes ignore small stuff in life & keep looking for bigger ones ! It's well said - when posisble, stop to smell the roses. Bliss lies around all of us - it's just waiting to be discovered !

Music of the night : I'm in love (Movie : Neal'nNikki, Genre : Hindi - love, Sung by : Sonu Nigam, Mahalakshmi Iyer, Clinton, Dominique Cerejo, Music by : Salim-Sulaiman) - a sweetly composed song, well sung, nicely filled up by music. Few other songs of this movie are also very good - one of them is the title song.
