L.S aur D darling..(x3)

The movie is seriously different. It is like one of those things you chance upon on an un-assuming moment, that leaves a strong impression for being both, powerfully insightful, and that it came in an unexpected way. It is clear artwork, stuff that you want to see again to do complete justice to. It makes you look at cinema as an appreciation exercise. Sounds like world cinema. But you have to be an Indian to enjoy this no doubt.

It has been created so simply that you realise how difficult it is to create simplicity.

This guy is clearly a contemporary of Anurag Kashyap. I imagine a healthy rivalry between these two....of being the first to hit that fantastic round-the-corner-insight, or the mere art of showing something differently. And after LSD, it is very clear that Dibakar Banerjee is one up.
