Recently saw "Season" by P Padmarajan.
This movie has a very engaging plot but at the same time Pappettan has blended in various emotions into the movie fabric making it richer and much more fulsome.Just the plot can give the CBI movies a run for the money.
Set in the background of drug trading in Kovalam beach , the protagonist(Lal) helps two unemployeds with a shady deal with a foreigner.The lure for money gets the mean foreigner to kill both of them.Lal is arrested.The plot that Lal weaves is not an immature emotional one / a shallow revenge thirst.For Lal , the primary interest is rightly directed to the families of the lost accomplices.Lal, who was arrested for the two murders promises to help the foreigner escape(He has landed in the same jail) in return for money.This money is later used to help the families.
There is lot of meat in the movie for the viewer.This is a clear case where screenplay plays much much more of a role than direction.
