Review
------
The phenomenally popular Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (it played
in Indian theaters for five years straight) is, in many ways, a
perfect introduction to Bollywood. With a perfectly executed
classic Hollywood boy-meets-girl plot, charismatic stars and
great songs, it overflows with the specific kind of joy that only
great Bollywood movies can produce. The film is dominated by Shah
Rukh Khan, who careens through it like a hyperactive Cary Grant,
charming everyone in his path and generally showing why he's been
one of the most popular bollywood stars of the past decade. Khan
can be hard to take seriously in dramatic efforts like Dil Se and
Asoka, but he excels at comedy. His interactions with Amrish Puri
as Simran's stern, glowering her, are particularly hilarious.
Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is also a very picturesque film.Its
beauty doesn't end when the action moves to Punjab for the second
half, where several scenes take place in a gorgeous field of
yellow flowers stretching to the horizon. An immensely likeable
movie, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge performs the rarely-achieved
feat of stretching a predictable plot over three hours and making
every minute enjoyable. --platform47.com
