should not be allowed to get beaten and raped; someone needs to put an end to this soon. Reflect The last Journal I wrote was on children’s rights‚ and specifically‚ child brides.

love to cast you in those roles where you’re the other woman‚ and your character is not very nice. That is exactly right. And that will be true of this upcoming one as well.

Bollywood’s kitsch to be actual kitsch. But to confuse Gurinder Chadha’s delicious‚ walloping and wacky adaptation of Jane Austen as a take on the Bollywood formula is to‚ quite simply‚ confuse the wood for the trees. Jane Austen meets Manoj Kumar in "Bride & Prejudice". And they are finally moulded into a vision that’s entirely and incontrovertibly Chadha’s. In her projection of the classic and the kitsch in the same range of vision‚ Beckham begum has achieved what no other filmmaker from any part of

British Sound Analysis: A voiceover in the film British Sounds states‚ "Sometimes the class struggle is also the struggle of one image against another image‚ of one sound against another sound. In a film‚ this struggle is between images and sounds." We as spectators are able to make connection with that statement as we watch the segments in the film unfold.
