I saw Dor yesterday.

It is the story of two women - one in Himachal Pradesh and the other in Rajasthan - whom fate binds in a Dor. Their lives are similar ye unconnected - until, by a twist of fate, Zeenat (played by Gul Panag starts out for Rajasthan to look for Meera, armed only of a photo of their husbands together ( Read more... )

I was watching this song Tu Hi Meri Shab Hai from the film Gangster on TV yesterday and I noticed that they showed something which looked like the Cheonggyecheon river. In the next scene they are on the Seoul Subway which I know too well. In another scene there is a bus with something written in Korean at the side - so I was thinking that the place ( Read more... )

As the weather in Suwon became warmer through January, I predicted we had seen the last snow of the winter. But to prove things otherwise it snowed again on the 7th. I left Korea on 9th morning (a painful day because :- I hate travelling + I hate getting up at five o'clock in the morning + I barely manage to get out my warm bed in the cold, cold ( Read more... )

Man is conceived in sin and born in corruption
-- From the movie All the King's Men

Two and a half years after the movie was suggested to me, I finally managed to watch this movie. I had loved Snatch when I first saw it (though the last time when we were watching it, people lost patience and we stopped in the middle) -- and Lock, Stock .. is made in the same "mould ( Read more... )

I saw the movie "Goal!" yesterday. It is a very simple rags-to-riches story of a footballer. I liked every bit of the movie -- even the soundtrack. However, when I looked it up on the web today, the reviewers did not like at all!

Delmar O'Donnell: Them syreens did this to him. They loved him up and turned him into a horny toad.
Ulysses Everett McGill: Are you sure that's Pete?
Delmar O'Donnell: Of course it is! Look at him! ... We gotta find some wizard to change him back.

Ulysses Everett McGill: You can't display a toad in a fine restaurant like this! Why, the good ( Read more... )

Saw Matrix. Alone! And while I sat through the 9-minute long credits, waiting for the Revolutions trailer, I found only 5 people giving me company. Obviously anybody who waits to see the full credits at 12:15 AM must be crazy! And when I came out the escalators were not working, so I took the elevators to the floor marked "G" which turned out to be ( Read more... )

Ordinarily, while watching movies on tv I generally miss the beginings or endings or sometimes both. I saw a Jennifer Lopez starrer Selena on Sunday night, Remember the Titans yesterday night and some movie about a rigged quiz show this morning. I would have preferred watching all of them fully but fate would have it otherwise. This evening also I ( Read more... )

Brick Top: You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together.

Sol: Would someone mind telling me, who are you?

Brick Top: And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your ( Read more... )
