Valentine's Week of Sex: Kabhi Kabhi Review 2! What Does Yash Chopra Think Makes Good Sex?
This is a movie with a lot of layers, consideration of parent and child relationships, and changing times, and the generation gap. But it is also about sex, and what makes good sex and bad sex, and why that matters in a relationship.
Continue readingValentine's Week of Sex: Kabhi Kabhi Review 1! The Movie that is All About Sex Without Being About Sex
Happy Kabhi Kabhi day! This is my old review, with one paragraph added, but I think I have to do a second review later today specifically about what sex means in this movie because I think Yashji had a very particular reason for showing different interactions between the 5 couples.

Second to last one! And an important one. Another super successful director, and super good and all of that.

Friday Classic (on Saturday): Kabhi Kabhi, All Love is True Love
I got sick, so things got a bit backed up and I had to move a few things around. And therefore, Friday classics on Saturday!
Friday Classics: Trishul! Yashji and Amitabh Create Magic Again
My favorite Yashji and Amitji’s film! Not the best one, that I know, but my personal favorite.
SRKajol rewatch, Karan Arjun Part 5-Complete! Finale! Ending! All Spoiled for you right here!
Inspired by Dilwale, I am going through all previous SRKajol films in exhaustive detail! Karan-Arjun turns out to not be that Kajol-y, but it makes up for it by being super Salman-y. And super Amrish Puri-y. And super 90s-y.
(also, SPOILER, in this section Amrish Puri wears a Lavender Jacket! Just like Salman in the header image!)
(bullet point version of synopsis, for full film, available here. Part 2 here. Part 3 here. Part 4 here. Final part here.)
