3 idiots #12 Dangal #155 Taare Zameen Par #179

All movies starring Amir Khan. They really love him there

Here's two examples: 1. Harry and the Henderson’s, 2. Forrest Warrior.

Cheesy but well made movies like Harry and the Henderson's would be ideal, if I’m honest. Uplifting and wholesome would be most welcome. I just need your help with the names of some great family films set in the Redwoods and American national parks. Harmless, escapist fun family films to pick me up in this down period of my life, with pleasant soundtrack would be a bonus. Thanks to anyone who can help. Bonus points for the movies that are 80's or 90's.

I.e. — Mere Haath Mein

What are some films where you have liked all of the songs in?

Edit: All of the recommendations have great songs/music, thank you all for sharing!

I like shows/films in a similar genre-- Mean Creek, Super Dark Times, Wind River, Insomnia, Blue Velvet, Good Time, etc.

1. Renting a castle out to celebrate Anya getting in.
2. Having breakfast ready for them when they woke up.
3. Taking Anya to get the dog of her choice.
4. “Going into the role of a relaxed dad on vacation” by being prepared to buy anything Anya wanted him to from that gift shop.
5. Taking his wife out on expensive dates because he mistakenly thought she was mad at him.
6. Taking his wife out to drinks to clear up any misinformation he felt she may have felt about him and his coworker.
7. Mistakenly thinking his wife had feelings for him and trying to use that to honeypot her into “becoming his real wife”.
8. Cheering up and comforting Anya and Yor when they’re upset.
9. Walking the dog with his family.
10. Making his buddy play constant babysitter to Anya when him and Yor have to go out.

4. Shambhu kumar.

Many guys here have not heard of his name, but in my opinion this guy is one of the most fearless among all, he is very popular among ambedkarites from Hindi belt. He has worked with almost all news channels ,he left everything and started his own YT channel 'National Dastak'. He has said that in news room it is impossible for SC, ST, OBC guy to rise on top as there is subtle casteism practiced by many reputed journalists even now. The reason Modi was capable to manage them was only because of ideological similarities between them.

Among English, I can only remember of Faye dsouza ,former editor of mirror now, now she posts on his own Facebook page.

So as the title says, bollywood hardly accepts scripts written in Devanagari. It has to be written in Roman script. This is probably the reason why this industry lacks originality and innovation.

Language is not just a tool of communication but also reservoir of past cultural experiences and words used in the language are expressions of those experiences or gained knowledge. Without rooting themselves in the language of the culture they are living, they basically have alienated themselves from the nuances of the language. And by doing so, they are unable to express or even think original deeper concepts rooted in the culture, because they can probably think of something original or deeper but to express it via storytelling needs them to have atleast a little nuanced understanding of the language.

Edit: Many people here are confusing my post as a criticism of quality of bollywood films. It is not. It is an opinion on one of the factors why Bollywood lacks originality and uniqueness.

There’s an entire genre of mainstream Hindi filmmaking that disguises artistic incompetence as “ode to campy ‘70s Bollywood”. If we laugh at how hopelessly awful the movie is, the makers tend to go, “But that’s the point!”.

If the acting is mercilessly grating and over-the-top, and the sets are lit more like the cartoon Dexter’s Laboratory than the TV series Dexter, and the plot is a drunken joke camouflaged as playful drama, and the leads have ‘easy paycheck’ written all over their powdered foreheads, and the climax involves an eccentric killer swan-dancing to classical music while simultaneously cutting open the stomach of a pregnant girl in a disco-lit basement, the director points out, “Exactly, that’s my tribute to so-bad-it’s-good thrillers of yore!”.

If we wonder how exactly a movie so terrible got greenlit and wormed its way onto our streaming screens during a global pandemic, the writers tend to surmise, “But you need the massy escapism!”. Fourteen years after testing that thin kitschy line between parody and disaster with Jaan-E-Mann, editor-director Shirish Kunder turns that line into a suicidal rope with his third feature film, Mrs. Serial Killer.

Bajpayee, like any great actor for whom there is a Satyamev Jayate for every Aligarh and a Mrs. Serial Killer for every The Family Man**, seems to have a blast in bad movies – almost as if he slyly wants to check how far he can push the ham-scales before the mortified director asks him to tone it down. But much to his visible shock, director Shirish Kunder never stops him. He looks like he’s always waiting for Kunder to call “Cut!” and burst out into chuckles…but that never happens.** As a result, we get a performance that zooms past the so-bad-it’s-good barrier into so-bad-it’s-delusional territory. It cannot be unseen. Jacqueline, whose last four acting credits read Drive, Race 3, Baaghi 2, and Judwaa 2, is actually overpowered by Bajpayee, who in turn is overpowered by Kunder’s original score that features a background theme uncannily similar to the tune of Roshni Se from Asoka.

To sum up this abominable experience, much of this Netflix original left me so stunned with its disdain for the concept of moving pictures that it felt like another reality check in a year full of unsavoury reality checks. A pickup line such as “A male gynecologist is like a bald hair stylist” is never a good omen.
