It's been a while since I watched something so inspiring. It was beautiful, a story well told and its biggest trait - simplicity.
I hope you have watched Queen. If you haven't please go watch it today. It's your hard earned money and even harder earned time well spent.
Hats off to a director who had the courage to make such a feministic film. Its feminist alright without being over the top or in your face. It was just right.
He has touched upon subjects like drinking, sleeping around for fun, prostitution without being judgemental or conciliatory about it. He airs his views through his protagonist "Rani" very sweetly - Don't drink and sex too much okay? Leave this profession, it must be very tough. But you are superb on the pole. It's adorable.
Rani is amazing. It's quirky the way she spells out every situation - literally! She sees a couple french kissing on the streets of Paris and she very innocently tells herself lip to lip kiss.
It was heartening to see so many men applauding and laughing each time pot shots were taken at the villain masquerading as the hero! It's one thing for the director to use a feminist theme, yet another to have an audience now that not only accepts but also appreciates themes such as these. That's super and warms the heart immensely.
This film is going to be legendary - it has all the makings of a great brand. People want to be associated with it and very positively at that!
Which reminds me, as a brand manager and brand custodian, I have a brand blog - http://brandchildren.blogspot.in wherein I air my thoughts about the world of brand development and management. Do visit when you have a moment to spare. Would love to hear your views on a subject that enthralls me:)
Till then, I am the Queen of the world!

Two key factors for the success of the film:
ReplyDelete1) Everyone has underplayed their role (not the usual loud Bollywood type)
2) The perfect cast selection.
Hi. Thanks for visiting:) Very true, it is indeed very subtle and the casting couldn't have been finer.
DeleteGrt that you started blogging. You write well and straight on the face. I have yet to see the film ' Queen'.Presently adoring the one at home.
