Muhsin Bey

It is absolutely the best Turkish movie. It shows how arabesque culture impacts the classic art.

muhsin bey is no doubt the best turkish film of all the times. Sener Sen, proves that he's the most skilled actor in this film. Everyone who's interested in Turkish cinema should see this movie. And also,

Zugurt Aga and Ask Filmlerinin Unutulmaz Yonetmeni.

For me this is the beginning of a new era. One of the best Turkish Films ever made & a mile stone in Turkish film producing. Sener Sen is at one of his best performances ( Eskiya was the other one... ). A film everyone must see before making a decision on the Turkish Cinema...

This movie is definitely the best Turkish movie, and one of the best I've ever seen. Makes you really feel the defeat of old-school man who is one of the last bearers of honor, decency and humanity, against the "emerging markets" people. A very sad story is told in a comedy manner. It's a universal story, not only for Turks, but for everybody.

Muhsin Bey (Sener Sen) is a music producer who actually ran out of business, but still keeping to exist in business, occupying a table in a Turkish cafe as him last place of business. At early 80s arabesk music has its peak in Turkey, where Muhsin strongly resists to produce any arabesk albums. He would make only quality Turk and folk music. He is the only one regularly visiting an old lady who was once a great singer. One day, a guy named Ali Nazik comes from the country, wanting to be a famous singer. Whatever the circumstances are, Muhsin would invest only in quality music.

The film simply argues the "world". the world but in an eastern manner on behalf of Muhsin bey.

Although starting point of the director may not be as i claim,this does not change the fact for me.Muhsin bey is the man who loses.loses with roses.that is not problem.

After watching the film,you feel that something has changed in your mind for example real meaning of winning,losing,life,music,love... in the background hearing the voice of an older woman that is singing in Turkish classical music finally makes you something like a bird that bleeds from its wings on the ocean.

To conclude,i can say that watch this film not just to see the peak point of the Turkish cinema but also for the peak point of the acting who is absolutely most talented actor of all Turkish cinema history;Şener Şen.
