It was a transformative film for me. I was blown away. I had never seen something so beautiful and evocative. At the time, I was not somebody who followed film festivals. I only watched films available in the theatre or on DVD.
This is filmmaking at its best. Spielberg is appealing to the child in you. It's thrilling and poignant. It's such a complete piece of work. Because of its entertainment value and the presence of a star like Harrison Ford, we don't appreciate it enough. The cinematography was pathbreaking.
It's one of the greatest Hindi films ever made. The plight of an artist, the cinematography by V. K Murthy, the use of light and shade, the songs, the poetry, the political commentary and then the angst, restlessness, unrequited love.
Sudhir Mishra is the connection between my adolescence and contemporary cinema. He is the consistent force. This one stands at the pinnacle of his filmmaking prowess. It's one of the finest political films made in our country.
A great adaptation of Man, Woman and Child, which is an ordinary book. The screenplay by Gulzar, music by R.D Burman, acting by Naseeruddin Shah and Shabana Azmi made this film exceptional. It's just a combination of many forces of nature.
Thank you for reading!
