The opening credits of Kumbalangi Nights feature a “Title Font Design” card, and you see how important this is - this gradation of colour from yellow through green to blue - in capturing the film’s mood and tone and feel.
These films are distinguished by an organic sensibility that seeps into every aspect of the filmmaking, right down to the title font. And now, first-timer Madhu C Narayanan’s Kumbalangi Nights, which unfolds in an islet in the outskirts of Kochi. Look for films whose titles begin with the name of a place, followed by a plural noun. If we were still in the days of video libraries, this is how you’d find the classiest entertainers.
