That was an excellent one.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
I do not watch Turkish films very often, because many of them are cheap comedies which have similar stories since Kemal Sunal. However Turkey has very talented actors/producers / actress. Ozan Guven has proved himself in many pictures since "ikinci bahar" Unfortunately his best friend Cem Yilmaz was spoken more than him, when they were together in the same productions Filmlovers know that He does not need Cem Yilmaz. This film is the sample of my theory.Nobody else could be better than Meryem Uzerli, Her accent, education and film experience right for this role ( Nurgul Yesilcay could be good also but she has no accent )Belcim Bilgin is not the one I fallow normally, however she has many roles in Turkish Film Industry in these days. In this one she would not be better, no one would be :) Okan Yalabik was great even in his small role.And now Bora Akkas: Please keep fallowing this guy. I can not put my feelings in to the words. He could be the next Fikret Kuskan or Ozan Guven :)the story is good and well designed, picked. even the picture frames on the table have roles, nothing is too much, nothing is misery . Photography, light is professionally set up.Until last minute The movie is grabbing the viewers . at the end; this film well worth to spend time to watch. thanks
