Sholay (1975) IMDb
Hindi film recommended to me years ago by mates, it was sold to me as a curry western and mates always asking have you seen it yet, so hunted it down.
I've seen films from all over the world but never fancied anything from India as just have this vision of Bollywood weird (to me) dancing and ridiculous death scenes etc
Basically its two outlaws are enlisted to capture a notorious bandit. It steals from many different genres, actually no, its steals from every genre except sci fi
It was epic, quite long, needs some commitment but is quite rewarding. It worked best when it was being funny, particularly the evil prison commandant Charlie Chaplin impression and the always nagging Basanti.
The thing I'll remember most is the love of the two bandits, neither would hesitate to die for the other and it really is the heart of the film.
If you enjoy world cinema give it a go.
8/10
