Review of Dhobi Ghat (2010) by Jerry K — 30 Dec 2011
" Dhobi Ghat (Mumbai Diaries)" is a layered sensitive film comprised of three divergent life stories which intersect in unusual ways. The cinematography is luscious and well thought out. More than in most films, the environment is the silent fourth life story told, which really helps give a romantic feel to one of the most crowded, poorest neighborhoods in India.
The acting is careful; the direction beautiful. The stories and images which comprise this fine film will last in my mind for quite a while. This film is well worth viewing for those interested in fascinating studies of people and exotic environments.
