I’m thinking of revamping my collection of Indian flicks, and am mostly interested in mellow sardonic movies from the 80s’ and 90s’… if anyone has any suggestions, please hurl’em my way.
Some examples are:
Ijaazat
Falak
Masoom
Sadma
Lekin
nice choice u have got of films...u can add to that list
1.Ghar ( not necessarily 80-90s)
2.Khoobsurat
3.Umrao Jaan
4.Shatrank Ke Khiladi ( this one is by Satyajit Ray - a masterprice)
5.Bazaar ( a rare gem)
will add more to the list
some recommendations:
Muskarahat
Bawarchi
Abheeman
Manchali
- Saaransh
- Shakti
- Razia Sultan
- Nikaah
- Mirch Masala
- Maya Memsaab
if u can get hold of a film 'Garam Hawa' do watch it...it reflects the travails of family during partition.
got a couple of the ones u mention...
Saraansh and Shakti are both good...
will try and look for Shatranj ke Khladi and Garam Hawa.
keep'em coming :)
