Review of Kanchivaram (2008) by Gavin S — 16 Mar 2009
Priyadarshan, a director more known for his Bollywood hits, has made a film that is quite the anti-Bollywood movie. The story is about a silk weaver in India during the WW2 years who promises his baby daughter that she will have a silk sari for her wedding but has not the means to afford it.
Though there are some elements of comedy, the tone of the film towards the end is downright depressing. Nice visuals with images of beautiful colorful silk against the desaturated color of the background and costumes.
