Old Gold
Given the reports I have read about the awfulness of the recent remake of "Umrao Jaan", I am thinking of re-watching the classic version (full movie on Youtube!) before bed tonight - nothing like "ugly" Naseeruddin Shah and "jokerish" Farouque Shaikh tangling with the beauty Rekha. It should nicely agument my recent detours into Hindustani classical music. Also this is an essay that touches upon the Urdu novel "Umrao Jaan Ada" on which the movie is based.
