KuroSawWhat
Having seen Udaan about a month ago, I have to admit that I barely remember it. While the drama seems important and engaging at the time of viewing, and it was very well shot, the film doesn't seem to have much sticking power. It was missing...something. Or maybe it simply had too much browbeating of the it's one-note message. Looking back on it, the film did tend to repeat itself. By the time the main character
, I remember thinking, "It's about time." Udaan is certainly a good watch, but I wouldn't praise it overly much.

Life as Fiction
Flight, as the title translates, is about Rohan breaking free from what society had made him believe was important and necessary. It's hard not to call his actions landmark in Indian cinema, especially for a film coming out of the Bollywood system. For an industry that still finds full-on kissing controversial, the themes expressed here should theoretically create absolute outrage. ••• 12 years 10 months ago -
