Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam

D54 goes where Mammotty leads as we review the dreamlike and deeply engrossing Nanpakal Nerathu Mayakkam (2022). We discuss Mammootty’s amazing dual performance as James and Sundaram, his prolific output at age 71, and his unparalleled range. We try to solve the unsolvable mystery at the heart of this film, while admiring the gorgeous cinematography and how masterfully director Lijo Jose Pellissery brings to life the world and inhabitants of a rural village in Tamil Nadu. This film delivered an experience that mesmerised and lingered with us. Is this another instant Malayalam classic?
