great film, dr.Aziz got a good lesson for being a pussy english ass licker, mr rao mustv got popular all the more, and mr fielding finally got married....
lesson learnt: if u are a crazy english bitch who's not been shagged far a long time and visiting india in summers..please do carry a vibrator...it will save some poor indian's life
@TheOnefootinthegrave however been to india several times heard story of one white girl went to a restaurant in india wearing shorts and her food was full of jizz
The BBC made this into a wonderful studio drama in 1965. There's no vast peripheral spectacle but the characters & period feel are intense. Sybil Thorndike has more stature as Mrs Moore & Virginia McKenna, clearly scared stiff of marrying the bigoted Ronnie, is more plausible. Cyril Cusack, Ronald Hines, Zia Mohyeddin & Saeed Jaffrey are all very credible. Well worth seeing on steffsstuff channel.
The book is better than the film, but is quite hard. It has a lot of hidden themes, symbols (threes, wasps, kites) and sometimes characters represent things more than are actual people, eg. three main religions are represented by Moore, Aziz, Godbole. I think you should watch the film first, and if you like it then read the book, but the book will take you to another dimension and will require much mental effort - but in the end because of that be more satisfying. Or read "Howard's End" first?
Well, I hope you did not think that Stella was the only child from Mrs Moore's second marriage. She also had a son, who was psychic. Godbole understands this without knowing. This was not in the film, as were other vital points. The film just tells the basic story, but you could get that by reading a synopsis - exams test other things.
@sandrovic1970 Is the book good in your opinion? People have been saying they prefer the movie, and since you seem to think otherwise, I'd like to know your opinion, as I'm thinking of reading it myself.
@XxxkenzaxxX The book has too much details, in my opinion. But also, the scene, where Miss Quested goes to the temple and meets the apes, isn't documented in the book. In total, I would prefer the film.
beautiful movie
