Bombay Talkie
Bombay Talkie is Merchant Ivory Productions´ affectionate, bemused view of Bollywood - India´s huge dream factory. The film is like a brightly colored, sumptuous Indian sweet covered in gold foil, and cameraman Subrata Mitra´s ravishing photography has never been surpasses in any other James Ivory´s films.
The story, set off by elaborate studio numbers, is a melodrama echoing those of Bombay´s mass audience movies and the sexy best sellers of the film´s heroine, American authoress Lucia Lane (Jennifer Kendal). Visiting India in search of "new material," she becomes romantically involved with handsome movie star Vikram (Shashi Kapoor). When that doesn´t work out, she flees to an ashram to take up the spiritual life. That also-hilariously-doesn´t work out, and the ill-fated couple get together again, with explosive results.
