ONE OF THE MOST REALISTIC MOVIES I'VE EVER SEEN
12 December 2020
Warning: Spoilers
As we know, this is the first full length movie of Nuri Bilge Ceylan. It's clear to say that now he improved himself in his vision of art and filmmaking. However, Kasaba is a really powerful movie which has many various layers in it.

In general, the movie is not a combine of a series of events. And in theory, it is only a family story which lives in a small town. But practically, the story narrates the life itself, in an existential way.

The cast contains many people from Nuri Bilge's family such as his father, mather and niece.

And i found out later that the niece, Mehmet Emin Toprak has tragically passed away as a 28 years old in a car accident, so his dialogue scenes about life seemed more real to me now.

In a basic order: the small town classroom scene, the child and the (tortured) animals scenes and the family's final talk scene in the forest were really memorable.

Thank you NBC, for one of the most realistic movies i've ever seen.
