It's true, the scene could have worked as well or better without him holding the baby.

The romance is the centrepiece, but I appreciated how moving Mina's parents' arc is despite their oft unsympathetic stances--especially Roshan Seth's Jay returning to his birthplace of Kampala after a lifetime of trauma from displacement.

Yeah, Monsoon Wedding's great as well (and rough too, as you say)--I intend to rewatch that soon too, haven't seen it since it first came out. Salaam Bombay is fantastic too. The Namesake less so than the others, but solid.

Yeah. No one should be saying 'Oh his mother's Hindu'. So what? What if she was Muslim too, would that make him not Indian? Does him being American make him not Indian, or vice versa? Fuck off with all this bullshit. Nazis can shuffle those cards all day & have a ball.

Mamdani's Muslim, which is all that matters to Hindu supremacists and their hate.

Nothing like an unexpected TV firstwatch of a movie while flipping channels on a lazy evening to alter the course of your creative imagination. Lost to time.

Needed to channel that mood, man.
