Her daughter, my aunt ( bua) was loving, fun, and easy-going and her husband ( phupha ji) was temperamental. My grandpa ( baba) was quiet and reclusive, while my grandmother ( amma), the matriarch, was strong and decisive. My mother was intelligent and opinionated, while my aunt ( chachi) was responsible and caring. My father was the patriarch-omnipresent, strong-headed but emotional-while his brother, my uncle ( chacha in Hindu) was an eccentric thinker. We were a then-common, now-endangered species of the Indian societal landscape: a joint family. Growing up alongside the disparate, unique personalities of my family members, I became adept at understanding people’s emotions and behaviors at a young age. In fact, the skills I’ve needed to succeed were imparted to me at home, by my large family of 12. But here’s the thing: I never studied psychology or business in school. To do my job well, I need to be an expert at both understanding subtle human behaviors and building products. “I started thinking, ‘OK, if he’s the kind of director who gets invited to these theater festivals, what kind of directing would he do?’ And that’s when I remembered this multilingual theater idea that I actually had in mind for different projects, but I thought that by importing this, I’m able to bring about some sort of realistic - and also really simple - acting.I’m a Lead UX Researcher at Google. It’s a brilliant choice by Hamaguchi for a film that, at its core, is about Kafuku’s fear and often failure to communicate. What’s unique about the staging of Brecht’s play in the film is that each actor speaks in one of 10 different languages, including Korean sign language.

The drama follows Kafuku as he takes a gig directing a regional production of Bertolt Brecht’s classic play, “Uncle Vanya.” His comfort zone is increasingly prodded by the company’s insistence he use a professional driver, the arrival of his late wife’s former lover and a diverse acting troupe unfamiliar with his techniques. And to watch him come in on that red car, it was just such a wonderful vision.” And that was when the head of the company that loans out cars for film sets came riding up in that red car one day. Regarding the color yellow, I felt that in Japan, especially with all the greenery, yellow will sort of not really stand out among the landscape. “And so, in order to record in sync would be really difficult, especially with all the noise with the wind.
There’s so many conversations that happened in the car,” Hamaguchi says. And I realized quite quickly that this would be very difficult to do in film.
“In the original, the car is actually a yellow convertible. But, for such a key element, Hamaguchi made some important changes from the automobile in Haruki Murakami’s short story. In many ways, the red Saab 900 in Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s “Drive My Car” is the only mechanism that the stage actor and director Yūsuke Kafuku (Hidetoshi Nishijima) at the heart of the story has to keep the memory of his wife Otto (Reika Kirishima) alive. Everything should happen as if it existed and you shouldn’t see the director, everything should be hidden.” The hard thing about this is that you don’t have to see the director directing in these kind of films. I think these two points are bolder in this film compared to my other films. He notes, “For example, in many scenes, we see people, but we see them through something like a barrier.

The Iranian filmmaker also says he wanted to create an atmosphere full of misunderstanding and doubt. “Everything about the film field from the acting or the camera placement, they all were going around this idea of documentary.” “When I make a movie, I like to make it in a way that we feel that we are watching a documentary,” Farhadi says.
And it finds Farhadi being lauded for taking an impressive leap in his directing skills. His latest contender, “A Hero,” centers on a man (Amir Jadidi) in prison because of an outstanding debt and whose good deed during a furlough begins to backfire on him. Asghar Farhadi has already won two Oscars in this category for “A Separation” and “The Salesman.” He’s also been nominated in the original screenplay category for the former.
