They are right there ⬇️ (closer)

🗺️

I would be terrified if I were the person or ppl they are hunting down ngl 😭

Speaking of masks, I saw a spirit that looked like a ghost with a gang of his buddies floating towards me 👻😅 If you're going to be my friend you're going to have to understand and be ok with the fact I see dead people, demons and angels 😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂

The Mossad ⬇️👀

I want to say, God specifically and clearly said

“The Mossad”

UPDATE:

Honestly I believe that they have a very, very good idea of someone’s whereabouts

I said Canada 🇨🇦 because obviously that is where I reside and which lets me know that our equivalent to Mossad is CSIS. They could be working together #thewhitetiger

Tua is from Hawaii and he's plays on the Dolphins so its very clear to me the Americans are involved.

The White Tiger (2021)

The White Tiger might teach a dubious lesson but the fact that - even for a fraction of a second - you’d consider following in the lead's footsteps says a lot. For outsiders, it’s a compelling story (whose satyrical nature might fly over their heads). To someone living in India, it might be revolutionary.

Growing up in Laxmangarh, Balram Halwai (played by Adarsh Gourav) never finished school and watched his father die because their town did not have a doctor. As an adult, he aspires to be a chauffeur for the son of the town’s “landlord”. Being close to Ashok Shah (Rajkummar Rao) allows him to escape his village but as he becomes more worldly, he grows increasingly dissatisfied with his position.

I don’t know if the movie's poster is genius irony or false advertising. We see a smiling photo of Balram sitting down, wearing a cartoon crown while his masters Ashok and his wife, Pinky (Priyanka Chopra Jonas) place their hands on his shoulders. All that cyan and yellow makes this movie look cheery and uplifting. It isn’t.

We’re introduced to Balram’s world through a wraparound story of him writing a letter to Chinese premier Wen Jiabao (the story takes place in 2010). Balram compares the Indian underclass to roosters trapped in a chicken coop. They see other birds getting butchered but make no attempt to escape. It’s the perfect analogy because when Balram says he aspires to be a chauffeur… you assume it’s so he can worm his way into a higher circle. Actually, he’s trapped in a mindset of servitude. He never objects to the beatings and insults but slowly, you can see his blinders peel away. Now, he's ready to take advantage of someone else for a change and his persistent loyalty makes him unsuspecting. The question is whether he will realize how little everyone else cares about him early enough to escape from his cage.

Calling this “an extraordinary journey of a self-made man from a tea-shop worker in a village to a successful entrepreneur in a big city” isn’t an incorrect description, but it is misleading. You’d never guess from those words that Balram is kept in check with the knowledge that if he betrays the Shahs, Ashok’s father (Mahesh Manjrekar) will murder his entire family killed. There are a lot of shady characters in the film. Even those who are “good” make dubious choices. If former doormat Balram abuses them, you’re not going to shed any tears. It helps that Adarsh Gourav is very charismatic. I hope this is the first of many films we see him in.

Writer/director Ramin Bahrani offers the talented cast a great screenplay and they all do it justice. The film is stylish, tense, and thought-provoking. You might need to do a bit of research to overcome the cultural barrier but this is one of those movies where you won’t mind doing the extra homework. I think I’d like it even more a second time.

The White Tiger Book Review

[bookcoversreview]

The White Tiger

Extract:

Mukesh Sir looked at me with narrowed eyes. He didn’t know the village ways, but he had all the cunning of the landlords.

‘Do you drink?’

‘No sir. In my caste, we never drink.’

‘Halwai...’ Mr Ashok said with a grin. ‘Are you a sweet-maker? Can you cook for us while you’re not driving?’

‘Certainly, sir. I cook very well. Very tasty sweets. Gulab jamuns, laddoos, anything you desire,’ I said. ‘I worked at a tea shop for many years.’

‘Mr Ashok seemed to find this amusing. ‘Only in India,’ he said. ‘Your driver can also make sweets for you. Only in India. Start from tomorrow.’

‘Not so fast,’ Mukesh sir said.

#40🎬 The White Tiger (2021) Não estava nem um pouco a fim de ver esse filme. O Tigre Branco tem um pôster meio sem graça, 5 dias atrás eu assisti “Quem Quer Ser um Milionário?” e tinha achado somente “ok”. Meus maiores problemas com “Quem Quer Ser um Milionário?” tinham sido os flashbacks para a infância sofrida do protagonista e logo de cara The White Tiger apresenta a mesma coisa. Pensei: “ah pronto, vão usar a sofrência do piá como muleta para nos sensibilizar o filme todo”. Tinha até digitado nas minhas anotações. Ainda bem que estava errado. O filme deixa essa linha de lado bem rápido, focando na parte quase adulta do personagem, num período onde ele vê uma luz do fim do túnel da pobreza, tem uma realização e então a sua transformação. A realização é disparada a melhor parte, onde o onde  o próprio protagonista começa a sua reflexão sobre o seu lugar no mundo, porque é tão difícil mudar, como dar o pontapé nas suas transformações e quais as regras morais a seguir. Não conhecia esse aspecto da Índia que é foco do filme e não vou dizer nada aqui sobre isso para não estragar. Basta dizer que a atuação de Adarsh Gourav pareceu representar muito bem essa dificuldade que parte da população indiana enfrenta. Pelo menos estava perfeitamente alinhada com a proposta do filme. Baita performance. Talvez se eu conhecesse mais a história, tivesse visto o trailer e lido a sinopse, eu não teria achado tão bom. Ainda bem que meu conhecimento prévio do filme se resumia ao pôster sem graça. Como é bom ser surpreendido por um filme.

How hard it is for a man to win his freedom in India? Later, I came to realize why! The greatest thing to come out of this country, in its 10,000-year history.. the rooster coop! They can see and smell the blood.. they know they are next, yet they don’t rebel.. they don’t try and get out of the coop. Servants here have been raised to behave the same.. the furniture on his back is worth at least two years his salary, and yet he will faithfully pedal the money back to his boss without ever touching a single rupee. No servant does, why?! Because Indians are the world’s most honest and spiritual people? No.. it’s because 99.9% of us are caught in the rooster coop! The trustworthiness of servants is so strong that you can put the key of emancipation in a man’s hand and he will throw it back at you with a curse! كم هو صعب أن ينال المرء حريته في ”الهند“؟ لاحقاً، أدركت السبب! أعظم شيء أنتجه هذا البلد خلال 10 آلاف سنة من تاريخه، هو قن الديوك! بوسع الديوك رؤية الدم وشم رائحته.. تعرف أنها التالية، ومع ذلك لا تتمرد.. لا تحاول الخروج من القن. ل��د جرى تدريب الخدم هنا لكي يتصرفوا بنفس الطريقة.. المفروشات التي يحملها الخادم خلفه تساوي راتبه لسنتين على الأقل، ومع ذلك يقود دراجته بالمال بأمانة إلى رئيسه، من دون أن يأخذ روبية واحدة أبداً، ولا يفعل أي خادم ذلك، لماذا؟! هل لأن الهنود أكثر الناس نزاهة وروحانية في العالم؟ لا.. بل لأن 99.9 بالمئة منهم عالقون في قن الديوك! إخلاص الخدم قوي جداً، بحيث أنه يمكنك وضع مفتاح التحرر في يد المرء، لكنه يرميه عليك ويشتمك!
