I met an old friend for coffee in San Francisco yesterday afternoon, and had a few hours to kill before stopping in at the Wired reunion party. I didn't want to drive back to Berkeley because the weather was so crummy, and I was just across teh street from a movie theater and was just in time for the start of a movie that lots of people had been telling me to see. So I went. The movie -- The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, I had no idea what it was about until the movie started, then I remembered hearing a Fresh Air show about it and finding it too painful to listen to. Now here I was in the theater, not just being asked to listen to it, but being asked to live it. Through some very wonderful film-making, you feel as if what is happening to the main character is happening to you. Or more accurately, probably, you get the slightest hint of what it's like to be this person. My immediate impulse, one which I gave serious consideration to, was to pack up my things and leave. Anything would be better than spending three hours living this guy's life.  Two things happen over time: 1. You get over it. 2. They change perspective, and instead of being inside his body, you move outside it.  I think those two things are the story we all live as we mature and learn to live inside our own bodies, with their limits. You learn to step outside and see the humor in your predicament. The main character says he lives in a diving bell because it's as hard for him to communicate with other people as it would be at the bottom of the ocean inside a diving bell. The movie teaches that it's not much easier for the rest of us, even though we can manipulate symbols better. On the other hand, of course it is. The film develops a relationship between the hero and his father, between the hero and his own children, his ex-wife, his lover.  We strive for deeper understanding of ourselves and each other. But it may be ridiculously easy to find the only meaning that exists, without language, without intellect, by just being. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly should probably be the picture of the year for 2007, it's that good. But like all great art it shows you something truthful about yourself, and you may or may not want to see it.

Rajni rocks and rocks. His charismatic screen presence makes up for the illogical sequences in the script. Vivek's one liners, Shriya's beauty and top class technical work makes Sivaji,/I> watchable.

The Hindu epics never had it so good. Some of our most powerful filmmakers are reinterpreting the   classics.

Sanjay Dutt has never been a major draw overseas. But `MUNNABHAI M.B.B.S.` has proved to be the turning point; it has helped increase his fan-following tremendously.

Oh yes. There was a very wide canvas. There're several smaller characters who have been very nicely   portrayed. I specially love Mohanlal. I love his craft. He's an exceptional artiste. With such simplicity he's able   to display emotions that are so complex. Unfortunately, I didn't have much to do with Sushmita or not too   many scenes with Ajay Devgan either.

Sanjay Dutt got a fresh lease in his career with MUNNABHAI M.B.B.S., but his subsequent films haven't worked at all. Will Sanjay Gupta's MUSAFIR prove a turning point again?

When it comes to great anticipation, immense hype and some positive buzz, Jodhaa Akbar certainly deserved much better. However, as things stand today, the film is turning out to be one of the most 'thanda' projects that industry has seen for quite some time.
