The Buzz:

Plot:
Nazneen (Chatterjee) leaves Bangladesh for England and an arranged marriage with old, boring Chanu (Kaushik). Not the best way to experience 1980s London. Meanwhile, the grass seems greener back in Bangladesh, where Nazneen’s sister Hasina (Zafreen) is living large in comparison. That is until a young English buck (Simpson) knocks on the door…

See Instead Of:
Brick Lane offers more romantic insight that The Love Guru.

Sleeper Potential:
Movies with East Asian themes and characters (The Namesake, Bend It Like Beckham, Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle) are proving popular.

Popcorn Alternative:
Anyone up for English-style curry?

Indie Extras:

  • Based on the best-selling novel by Monica Ali.
  • A festival favorite. And not the lame festivals, either: Toronto, London, Telluride.
