Review of Blinded by the Light (2019) by Inkoo Kang for Slate — 13 Aug 2019
The heart of the film is the father-son bond, but Chadha, a filmmaker long preoccupied with the inner lives of Desi-British girls and women, also gives Javed’s sister (Nikita Mehta) a lovely reveal. If a couple of segments droop in their strict adherence to Manzoor’s biography, it’s certainly forgivable.
This movie won’t blind anyone with its innovation, but it’s got plenty to dazzle and delight.
