This year, the Festival presents 336 films from 55 countries, including 252 features
I was checking on Indian movies.. they are playing 4 movies this year. They are showing this movie ‘Maqbool’ starring Tabu, Om Puri, Nasserudin Shah on Saturday, September 13th…9p.m. If anyone of you is interested let me know and I’ll check on the tickets.
Here is supposedly the ‘official’ site

I'll only go if Tom Cruise will be there.
Nasiruddin Shah is India's Tom Cruise.
Joking aside, the cast looks fabulous. This should be a good non-commercial cinema movie. You won't see songs or any stupid fights.
I will check how much it will take on plastic surgery to make me look like Tom. On a second thought, I don’t wanna be hated by gorgeous Nicole Kidman either :-(
Yes, the cast is pretty cool
For me, Tabu is a reason enough to go…She is tall and good looking (sounds familiar anyone?:-)
ANyone knows if it out for renting or only playing in cinema?
SOunds very interesting (judging from the cast)
ANyone know what it's about?
Lemme pull a google....
Ok so I found out the movie is actually called 'Miya Maqbool' and is inspired from Shakespear's MacBeth
They should've named the film "McBool"
^lol 
Interesting ... I'm not into Desi remakes .... we'll see ....
MacBeth is an amazing play though ...
Forget macbeth, I love the shakesperean play Othello :k:
BoSS, I thought you were very much interested in "mola jutt" kind of movies one time....ye indian art movies kahaN se aa gayieN...
kher, let me know if you decide to go.
Definitely Amir...ask Anokha and Muzna if they are interested too.
Guppies, anyone else interested?
If you get a chance dont miss Majid Majidi's.. 'Baran', an irani movie about afghan refugees in iran, it's kind of a love story as well..
it's a beautiful film. Makes you cry and wonder.
Majid Majidi's movies are the best. Check em out.

Just an FYI, "Baran" means rain in Farsi.
