A few spelling errors already caught!! And there was another movie
that I got that
nobody recommended, but I saw it in the store and bought it on an impulse, and,
well, perhaps there was a reason it was not recommended. :)

It is called Strings: Bound by Faith and it was filmed in Nasik during
the Kumbh
Mela. It is a fairly predictable romance that isn't that romantic to
be honest, about
a British guy and two Indian girls (one modern, one traditional, he
falls for the
traditional girl and all heck breaks loose, but the movie could be
much more interesting
and insightful than it is)...However, in defense of this movie the
images of Nasik
and that event (whatever it is, I never figured that out to be honest)
are really quite
striking. But the movie does not attempt to explain what is happening
in Nasik, it's
more of an interesting background for a less than interesting story.
:) But, I'm still
glad to have it, it's visually quite good at least...

BTW, probably the most heavily recommended movie of all these was
Dilwale Dulhania
Le Jayenge, which was great. I have seen it twice so far, and it's really quite
dramatic and romantic and very funny (the piano scene is perhaps my
favorite, if you
have seen it...) Anyway, all the movies on my Have list have turned
out to be good...
