I'm terrible at titles
I'm also terrible at all decision-making, or at least most of it. But let's not dwell on that. Let's dwell on a very hilarious and happy movie that I saw last night: Bride and Prejudice. For those of you who haven't heard of it, it's a Baliwood (India's Hollywood) remake of Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice. Bride and Prejudice is a full-scale musical extravaganza complete with colorful costumes, cheesy songs and exuberant dancing. It's a little like watching a Disney cartoon musical but live-action, and a little like watching a classic musical such as South Pacific or State Fair. For a modern remake of Pride and Prejudice it remains very true to the original story, although it does add a cultural element -- modern versus traditional, England versus India, America versus India. Fans of the t.v. show Lost should know that the actor who plays Said is one of the main characters. Basically if you enjoy movies that are outrageously cheesy, but don't take themselves seriously, and if you want to see a little bit of India, here some great Indian music and end the movie wanting to dance...then you'd like Bride and Prejudice.

Amanda- I love you and I miss you terribly! And I wish I could sell you my car for under $500! Actually- I wish I could just give you my car. Actually- I wish public transportation was up to par in the US. Actually- I love how you and Jeremy always watch weird movies. Actually- I love that you are one of the most stable people I know.- Erin
