Swades: Gîtâ's moment of (short-lived) triumph as Mohan fumbles on the most basic general knowledge quiz about India, and is deemed fit for the lowest primary class. Her sharp gaze challenges, scrutinizes, disapproves, pities, and serenely ignores, all wrapped within an air of supreme indulgence.

  • the video is black

  • Try clicking on the HQ high quality) button at the bottom of the screen, towards the right. I too could not see the video (though I could hear the audio) when it was running in normal quality.

    Please confirm whether this was the problem.

  • Friends,

    You might also want to check out my paper on "Love, devotion, and service: retelling the Râmâyana in Gowarikar's Homeland (Swades)," posted today at the hyperlink you'll find in the info box above (top right).

    It is being presented at the DANAM (Dharma Association of North America) panel (09 Nov 2009) at the American Academy of Religions (AAR) conference at Montreal.

  • Friends,

    You might appreciate Swades better when you see it again after reading my ongoing review of its aesthetics entitled the "Science of love: look into Gîtâ's eyes in the Homeland."

    Click on my user-name above, and when you get to my YouTube profile, click on the link to my svAbhinava website: you'll see the link to the review in the "What's New" section, top of the left sidebar (unfortunately, URLs don't seem to be permitted in these comments).

    Enjoy!

    Sunthar
