Talking about good foreign movies, has anybody watched Spanish movie 'Butterfly' (2000) ? It is a must watch movie, particularly for us, who are about to watch great political polarization, turmoil and a bloody revolution possibly in a near future. This movie, although set in the advance shadow of Spanish civil war, is not a war movie, however. It is a simple story about a unique relationship between a 8 years old boy, Moncho, and his school teacher, Gregorio. Politics does not come significantly until the end of the movie. When I watched the movie, it felt like reading mindGame's poetry- simple story with no grand messages yet with powerful statements in them. Moncho learns, from his teacher, from his mother, from his friends, from his company with his brother, things about life, about nature and beyond. The end of the movie makes a powerful statement about dark side of human nature, particularly that which fear prompts. The way the fear of Spanish Facists made Moncho's mom do things brings the images of what the rule of Gyanendra Maharaj, or Comred Prachanda, for that matter, might do. Here are some images from the movie. Hope they motivates you to watch the movie, if you have not already. ----------------------------------------------------- Mocho and Gregorio learn about and from each other.
