Yes, a beautiful movie (visually none the least), but it has some problems too. Especially concerning the Latika and Samil characters.
- I mean, what are Samil's reason for doing what he does?
- and, you don't really get a sense of who Latika is or why Jamal loves her so much (other than her beauty).

Still, it is a very good movie. India is a big part of that too.


Also, just saw La Mala Educación. Very good and sensual movie that constantly went in another direction than the one expected. It made me remember how much I like Almodovar.
