If you loved The Namesake, try Monsoon Wedding
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Mira Nair, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Namesake, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Monsoon Wedding is
Three weeks of Delhi chaos hinge on one wedding. A groom’s kept quiet something, his dad panics over costs, and an aide’s in love with the caterer. The monsoon saves the day by washing away a misplaced ring—somehow the least chaotic part.
