After loving The Namesake (the book and the movie), I wanted to watch Monsoon Wedding, another film by The Namesake’s director Mira Nair.
This movie was incredible. So beautiful and charming. So much life and spirit in the story and the characters; it’s a joy to watch. Lately I’ve developed a great appreciation for books and movies centering around Indian and Indian-American culture.
Just added several move Mira Nair films to my netflix queue.
I love rainy weekend days sitting on my bed with all the books and magazines and movies I want to attend to stacked high all around me. I may not get to all of them, but it’s nice to have them there.
