Saturday WatchAlong: Signature Move! 8:30am Chicago Time Saturday!
I’ve decided to be totally selfish. I’ve been wanting to see Signature Move for ages, and I like watching movies on Saturday mornings. And it’s only 90 minutes, so even if no one else shows up, I will be happy talking to myself for 90 minutes (more than that and it gets weird).

This is a really really good movie. And also a really really sad movie. In a kind of gently hopeful way, but still very very sad.
Continue readingSunday ReRun: Loins of Punjab, Still the Best Movie on the Indian-American Experience; At Least, in New Jersey
I just watched this movie for the 4th time, and it is still So. Good! And such a hard sell! I’ve seen it 4 times partly because people will only watch it if I sit next to them and force them to. Because the title alone really isn’t enough to sell it.
Continue readingFriday Classic (Bonus, on Saturday): Masoom, the Inescapable Pull of Motherhood
Mother’s Day week, obviously I was inspired to watch Masoom. One of the greatest explorations of what it means to be a mother of all time. You can run from it, but it will always catch you.
News Round-Up: Shashi Aftershocks

Silly Sunday Post: Wholesome! Family Film Options
It has come up every once in awhile that there aren’t as many really family type films as their used to be. And it has also come up that the past few Sundays have been extremely sexy. So, no sex! Just fun family times this week! Which probably means my view count will suffer, but oh well. (if you want sex, you can check out last week’s post)

Loins of Punjab: Seriously, SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE TITLE!!!!
I just watched this movie for the 4th time, and it is still So. Good! And such a hard sell! I’ve seen it 4 times partly because people will only watch it if I sit next to them and force them to. Because the title alone really isn’t enough to sell it.
Arth: Wow, I Don’t Think I Could Make a Film This Honest About My Life!
It’s still Mahesh Bhatt’s birthday! I celebrated by finally watching Arth. Well, most of Arth, I think I may have ended up with a slightly edited version.
