Review of Shree 420 (1955) by Sandeep S — 07 Jan 2008
A classic Bollywood "social" of the 1950s. Its romanticized populism deserves comparison to Frank Capra's films. As in Kapoor's earlier Awara, the hero is a Chaplinesque tramp, another vagabond (as in Awara).
Songs are timeless classics, one of note is the "Mera Joota Hai Japani" song...
