    Dead Man: On the Horizon or In your Head

    Let me preface my first article as a PFC author by saying that it is a heady feeling to be sharing this forum with the people whose writings I have been following avidly, not to mention people like Anurag Kashyap and Sudhir Mishra,  whose films have enthralled me time and again.
