involving the infamous lawsuits by Eduardo Saverin and the Winklevoss
twins. The setting provides for all of their views over the events being
exchanged, leading to the culmination of the film in a climax involving
complex emotions. Business and technology aficionados have had heaps
of praise for the film, and it is an endearing tale about how the world’s

5. Life of Pi
Based on - ‘Life of Pi’, by Yann Martell
Accolades - Nominee, Academy Award for
Best Adapted Screenplay, 2013
Anybody who has read the Man Booker
Prize winning ‘Life of Pi’ would have been
amazed by the vivid descriptions of the
characters, scenarios, locales presented
in the book. As a reader, one can find
himself frowning upon his own creativity
and imagination, because that is how
tough it is to visualize the storyline. The
director Ang Lee has done great justice
to the book while paying a silent homage
to the book at various instances with a
visual treat, in the film adaptation. The
amount of effort that was put in to the
making of the film with respect to graphics and cinematography is
commendable, with extremely well written dialogue. Life of Pi is a gem
that one mustn’t miss.
