Yesilçam

Yesilcam is a great series which is well researched and brings nostalgia as it focuses on political atmosphere and how the history of Turkey affected the process of film making there. Characters are so well crafted especially the multidimensional character of Semih who's got some really good dialogues by the way. It's a great period drama which tells you a story of relatively sincere people that used to exist at that time. It's not just a show about how filmmaking used to take place those days and how Yesilcam was a thing of pride to people as Turkey became the fourth largest producer of films in the world at that time, but it's also a show which tells the history of Turkey from the perspective of a film producer in an enjoyable ride for all.

I am already a fan of period pieces and I was expecting such work for a long time. The atmosphere of the period was successfully mirrored. Decor, costumes, makeup, etc. I found everything very harmonious. It's just that their accents were more modern; I'd like them to be treated more sensitively.

Other than that, I really enjoyed watching it. I've always been curious about Yesilcam's behind-the-scenes. For me, I would say that this series has filled a big gap. Not to mention being shot by a director like Cagan Irmak.

It was a very well-crafted script. Fresh, light and dynamic. No one realized that this hours had already gone by. We also loved how multilayered Semih's character turned out to be.

I can tell that Yesilcam is a masterpiece. Cagatay Ulusoy proves once again that his acting talent is unique. I watched both seasons twice. He is fantastic. This role let me speechless, Ulusoy is truely very versatile. The script is with many up and down moments. I recommend to watch it without a doubt, it's a great distribution in an exceptional series.

By the way I discovered Cagatay Ulusoy about 6 months ago, since then a watched all his projects. Before I never watched a turkish series and didn't have a good impression about them. Now I can tell that not all turkish series are the same, at least Cagatay Ulusoy's projects are ok. Which I can't say about other's projects because I still refuse to watch it.

It is a very beautiful story with wonderful characters from turkish history in 60's through the story of a passionate movie producer coming from an uncommon background

every character every scene in its right place i enjoy it so much that i watch every episode 3 times at least.
