Magic!
I adored this film. All of the actors did a fine job, the music is lovely (and on my ipod), the dance numbers fantastic, the sets and costumes right out of a fairy tale... and it gives ghosts a better name than the poltergiest garbage we're usually offered. It's very ...

This version of Othello will blow you away
This was our favorite Hindi film of 2006 and in fact one of our favorite films ever. Omkara is a compelling adaptation of Shakespeare's Othello, with standout acting by all involved. The film is set in rural Uttar Pradesh, almost a modern "wild west" with its depiction ...

Great dancing, great laughs
For the first time, Bollywood has made a movie making fun of itself. The unrealistic, super-dramatic action, the crazy dance sequences, the random bursting into song, the mistaken identity, and of course Shahrukh. Farah Khan has completely outdone herself here. The ...

Read between the lines
This is not a comedy but a deep insightful snapshot into the lives of ordinary New Yorkers in the aftermath of 9/11. Though 9/11 is not referenced directly by any of the charachters you get the sense that all are undergoing profound changes within themselves during ...

modern Shakespeare
This film has received enough positive reviews without my adding my 2 cents. However, I would like to make the point that this movie is closer to a Shakespearean comedy than any other modern film I've seen (although I don't watch films as often as some). Although the ...

One of my most valuable "finds" this year
You hear about such movies only as a matter of happenstance because they are commonly shrugged off as "art cinema" amidst India's glam-bam Bollywood cacophony. To anyone even mildly familiar with the dark underbelly of meaningful cinema in India, the star cast is ...
