World Cinema comes to India in November!
Firstly, thanks for all the feedback on our previous posts; we are working on all the requests and comments….keep them coming!
November, replete with international movie festivals, DVD launches and theatrical releases promises to be a real treat for world cinema lovers in India.
The Kolkata Film Festival kicks off on 10th Nov with some really amazing films to watch out for- don’t miss the NDTV Lumiere Kim Ki duk retrospective with four of his gems playing at the festival - Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter.. and Spring, Time, Breath and The Coast Guard. Really expecting fireworks here!
The other award winning movies picked from the NDTV Lumiere catalogue include Three Monkeys, Samaritan Girl, Ulzhan, The Edge Of Heaven and Duska.
‘ Three Monkeys’ which won the 2008 Festival de Cannes for Best Director was also released in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore and Kolkata barely a few months after it won the award !
For those who can’t attend the festival, there is plenty more happening – Some of the best Jaques Tati titles like Playtime, Jour De Fete,Mon Oncle and Mr Hulot’s Holiday will hit the DVD shelves all over India apart from Fatih Akin’s In July, Solino, Short Sharp Shock and other great titles like Caramel, Persepolis, Goodbye Bafana, Crossed Tracks, 8 ½, Tuya’s Marriage and La Dolce Vita !
If that’s not enough, wait for ‘ 2 days in Paris’ – releasing on 7th Nov in Mumbai, Delhi and Bangalore…. Starring Adam Goldberg and Julie Delpy , this one for a change is without any twisted plots/identities/ fatalities and the like… the movie was screened at the Berlin International Festival and bagged a host of accolades elsewhere as well.
Also releasing soon in theatres are The Secret of the Grain and Page Turner….
Meanwhile, Days of Glory got a tremendous response here in India and the movie is now running for another week in Mumbai and Bangalore!
PVR Juhu, Mumbai – 9:05 pm
PVR Forum Mall, Bangalore- 10.00 p.m
Let me know if you end of watching any of the above….

What have we done wrong in Pune ???
Please Please have these theatrical releases here !!!
My only complaint is why u keep movie show at odd times at far off places.Why don’t you screen movies at least in mulund or cst.
Please try to keep the timings before 9 , 9.30 pm as usually is. In Delhi it kind of become a problem. Not sure how feasible this is though. But it’d be good.
This is regarding the channel.

It isn’t available with my cable operator. Who should I tell him to contact?
Bit odd question.
Has Lumière plans to carry good Indian cinema (DVDs or theatrical releases) to show to the rest of the world. As its doing good by carrying good world cinema to the India, will it be done other way round also or its only one sided act?
Infact may not be a bad idea to have a late night slot in NDTV Imagine for world cinema under the Lumierre brand name.
why is it so fucking expensive ?? and why horrible chairs?? wy not PVR goregaon????
thank you. This was long overdue. 10th nov., is it? lets see whether this is as good as it sounds. But the effort is credible. Thank you once agin.
prasun, pune is very much on the anvil ! infact, we did release ‘ caramel ‘ a few months back at Gold Adlabs in Pune- and since the response was very encouraging, we would soon be firming up plans for regular releases in Pune as well. the tv channel is already available in pune and so are the DVDs… thanks for the feedback.
