You probably "get" Woody Allen better than I do, given your hometown. I think I only heard of this because months ago I wondered what either Rahul Khanna or Konkona was up to and saw this, then added it to Netflix, then finally ran out of other, more immediately exciting things to promote over it in the queue.<br /><br />Ellie - Agreed, the ending was a little weak, but I was glad they tied up the plot threads that they had laid down.<br /><br />jensc00t - Ha! The false advertising of wackadoodle is a tragedy indeed!<br /><br />aandthirtyeights - Yay! Glad someone liked that :)<br /><br />As for your film, I say do it - I think the type is pretty rich and ripe for exploration.Beth Loves Bollywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540154833326987567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-91228732188310805742009-06-15T18:59:35.841-05:002009-06-15T18:59:35.841-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Beth Loves Bollywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540154833326987567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-43504106396144538152009-06-15T18:57:25.146-05:002009-06-15T18:57:25.146-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Beth Loves Bollywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540154833326987567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-84440496511086869742009-06-14T22:53:03.429-05:002009-06-14T22:53:03.429-05:00Haha.

However, Rahul Bose and Irfaan Khan did a wonderful job-- believable and fun. But what was with the "2 years later" scene with the cartoon icons and the kitschy captions? Still, there were moments (Irfaan dancing?) that made this absolutely worthwhile.Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04888019230555832929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-86633537663086354222009-06-06T20:49:00.785-05:002009-06-06T20:49:00.785-05:00This looks completely scrumptious, and I've be...This looks completely scrumptious, and I've been so far out of the loop that I've not even heard of it. *pouts*Filmi Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03452657736759131107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-73363668316745760322009-06-06T19:10:56.548-05:002009-06-06T19:10:56.548-05:00For those who haven't heard the ring on my fin...For those who haven't heard the ring on my finger song, here it is<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Llu51gYclsbollywooddeewanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04916533314639410268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-17362679694631200922009-06-06T19:09:18.399-05:002009-06-06T19:09:18.399-05:00I liked the ring on my finger song a lotI liked the ring on my finger song a lotbollywooddeewanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04916533314639410268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-62085736498193795312009-06-06T10:21:06.531-05:002009-06-06T10:21:06.531-05:00Anarchavist - OH!

It also has more...well, filmi-style acting than the average Woody Allen movie, which is a strange mix in my head.<br /><br />shell - No. You'll want to strangle them, probably.

I catch his show occasionally, so I was super-excited for this. But then we never got to see him! And weirdly, I didn't really recognize his voice without his theme music and the girl whispering "love guru" in the background. :)Anarchivisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06599522097057431891noreply@blogger.com
