LAST FILM SHOW ( CHHELLO SHOW) Trailer
Indias official Oscar entry is both a fictional retelling of the director Pan Nalins boyhood and an ode to cinema itself to the films, of course, but also to the theatres and their equipment, which Nalins young hero loves just as much. Inevitably, despite being made of sterner stuff, it will draw comparisons to Giuseppe Tornatores enduringly popular Cinema Paradiso. Like Tornatores alter ego Salvatore, nineyearold Samay grows up poor, the son of a Gujarati railway teaseller. His escape is a cinema called the Galaxy which is hours away, but that doesnt deter him where the projectionist Fazal (Bhavesh Shrimali) lets him watch films from his booth; Samay even builds his own handcranked projector from a cardboard box. Nalin gives his story an added dimension of poignancy by updating it to 2010, when his beloved tunnels of light were on the brink of being replaced by digital servers.
