moore was a spirited off - screen presence in
tangled ,
but her charms as an actress are strained here , and the film only adds more ballast to a résumé already groaning under dead weight such as
because i said so
and
license to wed .
as for myself , i will confess that the only thing that kept me watching “license to wed” until the end ( apart from being paid to do so ) was the faith , perhaps misplaced , that i will not see a worse movie this year . come to think of it , the picture might be useful in certain circumstances , much in the way that reverend frank’s training program is supposed to be . if the beloved with whom you see “license to wed” can’t stop talking about how great it was , you might want to cancel the nuptials . or , if it’s too late for that , call a lawyer .

having hit theaters tuesday ( july 3 ) , we ' ll now be able to decide if it ' s any good , but this much we already knew : it ' s one of the more intriguing studio films to pop up in the hotly contested hollywood summer of 2007 .

with the divorce rate being what it is today , it only makes sense that people should have to go through some sort of rigorous testing process before being given the okay to get married . if you have to work together to get to the finish line , there ' s quite a bit invested in staying in it for the long haul . such is the premise behind license to wed .
the terribleness of “license to wed” is not really mr . williams’s fault , in any case . a job is a job . but it is sometimes hard to tell whether reverend frank is meant to be one of his creepy , villainous performances ( as in “one hour photo” or “insomnia” ) or to belong in his much larger gallery of twinkly , warmhearted menschen .

moore and krasinski don ' t have much to do besides watch williams riff . they ' re charming actors , so the romance is believable enough , but license to wed is basically a fluffy piece of robin williams cake . if you enjoy his flavor of comedy , this is an amusing , light flick . but if you ' re sick of his manic antics , don ' t bother to rsvp .
judging by the way she ' s talking these days , if wedding - preparation classes do soar with

mandy might want to go ahead and reserve herself a desk .

in the last week before the wedding , it’s useful to make yourself a to - do list so that you don’t awaken at 4 a . m . one morning with the terrible realization that you’ve forgotten something critical like getting the license . some typical items for the list include :
if you take spiritual matters at all seriously , then you have to wonder why in the world any minister would mock multiple forms of prayer—especially at the very moment when someone needs his help , and all because of an injury inflicted by the minister himself . of course , perhaps i take this too seriously . perhaps we are supposed to forget that reverend frank is an actual character , and perhaps we are supposed to look at this entire movie as an extension of williams ' s manic stand - up shtick . but even if that were the case , license to wed still isn ' t very funny .
you don’t have to be an angry atheist to hate this movie . but it helps .
this is all really extremely creepy , and reverend frank would be the villain in any decent version of this tale . but he’s not : he’s the hero , and he’s the one we’re supposed to laugh with , and via his perspective , laugh at sadie and ben : ha , ha , look at the idiot kids who don’t know nuthin’ ’bout marriage ! the most repulsively conservative thing about license to wed is that all of reverend frank’s nauseating , pervy antics turn out to be entirely justified in the end , and even ben , who appears to have no religion at all that we can see , is completely suckered in by him .
reverend frank is determined to put the couple through a very difficult series of tests before he will put the rubber stamp on their marriage license . they ' ll have to endure ridiculous classes , bizarre homework assignments and even out - and - out invasions of their privacy . the only question is whether they ' ll be able to stay together long enough to make the trip down the altar .

it all sounds pretty insane . robin williams ' character really puts us through the ringer .
talk with parents . while it is not considered quite right to ask parents directly for financial help , it’s acceptable and practical to ask what sort of participation they want to have . and , while you shouldn’t sell honors like escorting the bride , you can certainly negotiate what kind of help is most useful once an offer to help is made .

surely not . it is only the latest attempt by a hollywood studio to pander to prurience and piety in a single gesture , and to avoid giving offense by treating all possible factions of the public equally , which is to say like idiots . ben , quite reasonably objecting to reverend frank’s intrusiveness , is portrayed as selfish and clueless , while sadie’s cheerful acceptance of the minister’s wisdom is evidence of her own . and frank is wrecking their happiness only for their own good , pretending ( one guesses ) to be a vile caricature conjured from a cesspool of atheist calumny in order to steer his lambs onto the path of righteousness and decency .
i find it fascinating that simply asking someone to justify his own unsupported — and unsupportable — statement somehow qualifies as “beating someone into submission” and subjecting said person to a “cross examination . ”

as ben lies on the ground with the dog on top of him , the dog licks his face and sneezes on him . the dog was placed on top of the actor , and an offscreen trainer held up a toy to get the dog to look in various directions . the dog was then cued to lick the actor’s face . the dog was removed and baby food was placed all over the actor’s face to simulate the results of the dog’s sneeze .
when ben climbs in the window of reverend frank ' s house the window changes from one with a smaller piece of glass and a large frame to one with a larger piece of glass and the frame holding the glass is smaller . also the size of the window seems to change to a bigger window overall when you see ben coming through .

thanks for the great job you do in posting movie and television reviews online . i’m a college freshman and i recently had a confrontational disagreement with my english professor regarding an r - rated film . it is her favorite movie and she wanted to show it in class . i went to your web site to research the film’s content . although i had not seen the movie myself , i was able to make an educated argument against it based on the concerns you outlined . the prof said that she was impressed by my stand and decided to poll the whole class and give us a choice . we overwhelmingly voted to watch a g - rated movie instead ! i’ve learned that i can trust your site and i will be using it a lot in the future . ”
the two most important people on your wedding day are the bride and groom . but this should be balanced by also thinking about the celebration that will please the hosts ( if either set of parents is inclined to whip out a charge card and offer to pay ) and your the guests . so planning starts by talking about what it might be practical , appropriate , and fun to do .

what it takes is for reverend frank , as he is known , to harass , browbeat and humiliate the intendeds ( ben in particular ) for three weeks , until they are ready to call it quits . only if they can survive his brutal training course in matrimony — which starts with a bloody nose for the would - be groom and includes a hidden microphone in the bedroom and twin robot babies programmed to throw tantrums and soil diapers — will poor sadie and ben have what it takes to persevere till death do they part .

but i’m afraid you have not at all explained how i brought my atheistic bias to my review . you explained that you think it’s wrong for me to bring a bias , but you have not explained how that bias is present in the review . what , specifically , in my review , would have led you to believe i was an atheist if you hadn’t learned that i was in the comments afterward ?
so what does license do ? it rushes them toward the altar , but not before putting them through a retro gauntlet of busybodyish interference by a startlingly villainous man of the cloth . sadie hasn’t been to her bestest , most favoritest , it’s - the - family - tradition church , saint augustine’s , in just about forever , but she simply must have her wedding there . and the only available slot for a wedding is in two years… or three weeks . so three weeks it is . but there’s a catch : no one gets married at saint augustine’s without first completing reverend frank’s patented pre - wedding prep course ( he’s got his own web site and everything ! ) . sadie agrees instantly . ben , being merely the groom , has no say in the matter .

a few weeks ago i got to participate in the press day for the film with all the actors and the director – ken kwapis .
oh dear . now , i know mandy moore can do better than this ! seriously , i nearly switched it off ten minutes in . poor acting , dull story . kind of picked up enough to keep me watching , but was a fairly flat experience . didn ' t get to the end and think , wow glad i watched it . i can see how this one went straight to dvd without being heard of . if you like silly chick flicks , you might want to check it out . otherwise , i would recommend the far better
because i said so
or even
a walk to remember
if you want to see mandy in a good movie . i guess on the plus , she and kellan lutz make a nice pair here , and there ' s a small part by alyson hannigan as one of the couples who attend her marriage counselling . alyson is always funny , but yeah , not enough to recommend the whole movie based on that . i guess kind of has a nice message about making a marriage work ( i am trying to be positive here ! ) .

each panel discussion includes panelists from a variety of backgrounds in order to create nuanced and balanced conversation . coastal restoration and economic development require people from all kinds of professional backgrounds to work together , so presenting and incorporating as many of these viewpoints as possible in this summit is important .

went from barely making the top 30 to nearly hitting the top five after adding $ 6 . 89 million on 1628 screens in 19 markets . the film now has a total of $ 25 . 54 million internationally while its worldwide total hit $ 173 . 34 million . to put this into perspective ,
i’ll accept this when people start saying that it is unprofessional to bring ridiculous religious aspects into a movie . like the disgusting priest robin williams portrays here .

here comes the ride . an ok movie to watch if your a fan of mandy moore or kellan lutz ( twilight hunk ) . the story is barely there , it ' s nice and all but lacks of acting . no one in this film acted even good , it was just decent . this was suppose to be a comedy and turn out to me as a drama . watch it if you want , the risk is all yours . a newlywed marriage counselor fights to save her mother and father ' s crumbling union in this romantic comedy from director dermot mulroney . the more energy ava ( mandy moore ) devotes to keeping her parents together , though , the further she drifts away from her new husband ( kellan lutz ) . james brolin and jane seymour co - star .
sends the message that if you truly want to marry someone , you ' ll overcome all your differences ( and skip premarital counseling with a crazy minister ) . reverend frank is a very unorthodox ( and intrusive ) man of the cloth , going so far as to conduct illegal surveillance on the couples in his class .
to be honest , this is my first big movie , so i was terrified every day ,
the lanky , 27 - year - old actor said .
it’s just starting . i will say that drew is in it , but she’s also a producer and we’re just starting to film it and fill in the cast .
it ' s exactly what it looks like from the commercials - - a one - joke movie , and that one joke isn ' t even funny to begin with .
“before hotels in seychelles were designing just for the sake of it , but now attention is being laid on sophistication and local décor to please the most discerning guest . ”
the course ' s loopy group tests are predictable but funny , particularly those featuring a buffoonish groom - to - be played by fellow office worker brian baumgartner . but its ludicrous that any respectable clergyman would become a crazy voyeur before every wedding ceremony or that a bride would demand to stay in such an invasive course - - one that actually involves
creepy robot babies
that emit fake bodily fluids - - just to get married in her home church . but this isn ' t a comedy that thrives on realism .
honestly , is the williams character a villain even in the end ? the trailer hints to him gently not giving up on the couple for not passing his crazy ass course .

this is the part a surprising number of couples leave to the last minute ! start thinking about the ceremony as early as possible , making sure that you know about any religious requirements .
here is a clergyman ( frank’s high - churchy denomination is not specified , maybe for fear of protests ) whose only companion , day and night , seems to be a prepubescent boy . ( “reverend frank is everywhere , ” the youngster marvels . ick . ) the good pastor seems a bit too eager to ask “our little stacy” what she likes to do in bed . he also launches into a mini - tirade at one point about sadie’s supposed “liberal college” and “bisexual roommate . ” surely this film is a scabrous , cynical satire of religious authority run amok .

sheldon bergstrom told the canadian press on tuesday as rehearsals began for
rob ford the musical : birth of a ford nation .
bergstrom said before landing his part , he was mostly familiar with ford ' s
dark side
— the
crazy antics
he ' d catch on the news in saskatchewan .
bergstrom said before landing his part , he was mostly familiar with ford ' s
dark side
- - the
crazy antics
he ' d catch on the news in saskatchewan .
bergstrom , 42 , was chosen last month from nearly 100 hopefuls vying for the title role in the show which opens at toronto ' s factory theatre on sept . 16 for a two - week run .
bergstrom , a 42 - year - old actor from saskatchewan , recently landed the lead role in the upcoming production of rob ford the musical . he spoke with the star about portraying the infamous toronto chief magistrate .
he ' s kind of like a shakespearean cartoon character ,
bergstrom said at the factory theatre , wearing a ford - esque suit complete with a red tie and a handkerchief to wipe the perspiration off his forehead .
bergstrom said he was also keen on getting the part because he wanted to work on a new musical and had long been wanting to collaborate with book / lyrics writers brett mccaig and p . joseph regan , as well as composer anthony bastianon .
it ' s all a bit of challenge , but a fun one ,
bergstrom said of the role .
this is unlike any other challenge i have had ever before , and i am honoured to be able to do it .
bergstrom , 42 , said he was starring in the musical
hairspray
in edmonton when auditions for the role of ford were held earlier this summer , so he wrote to the producers and creators
and begged them and pleaded
for an opportunity to try out .
i ' ve been fascinated by him for a long time ,
the actor - singer - comedian told the canadian press on tuesday .
all across canada , all throughout the world , people are watching this man , this mayor of . . . canada ' s greatest city , and he has managed to pull off some amazing things and pull off some crazy things in his time as mayor .
rob ford the musical : birth of a ford nation
is set to debut at toronto ' s factory theatre from sept . 16 to 28 .
the 90 - minute show has 10 original tunes and sees a
spiritual guide
leading ford through the past year of his tumultuous life - - including his admitted drug use and stint in rehab .
when they agreed , he sent them
love letters
as well as a video of him singing
mustang sally
and what he calls
a rob ford version
of amy winehouse ' s
rehab .
he later sent them more videos and had friends , family members and fellow actors from across canada campaign for him via facebook and twitter .
producers say he ended up winning the role over nearly 100 other hopeful actors , including one who ' s starring on broadway .
the portly performer also bears a resemblance to ford - - something he ' s further emphasized by cutting his brown hair short and dyeing it blond .
liz gilroy directs the show , which has several other recognizable characters , including councillor brother doug ford and novelist margaret atwood . she ' ll be played by lisa horner , who recently made a splash as madame thenardier in a toronto production of
les miserables .
every once in a while they ' ll show him exploding in the middle of a city meeting and just scaring people to death , and i would think : ' first of all , that guy looks like me , and second of all , he ' s kind of crazy , someone should write a show about him .
'
mccaig said they only recently wrote the last few pages of the script , as they were waiting to see if ford ' s life would take yet another unexpected turn .
we ' ve got the ending . . . but we ' re leaving room for possible antics ,
he said .
he also put a
shout out
to the ford brothers to see the show but hasn ' t heard back , he added .
i ' d love rob to come down and give the opening - night speech or the closing - night speech . this is not 90 minutes of ford bashing . it ' s a balanced look at the whole year , of all the players in it .
i don ' t want him to feel like he ' s been picked on and made fun of . it ' s not about that ,
he said .
this is a musical comedy , so there ' s certainly some jabs , but the best thing about the script is that nobody is safe .
mccaig said he ' s hoping the show will have an extension , and he has ambitions of going off - broadway with the production - - depending on how the mayoral race turns out .
the story dies if rob doesn ' t get voted back in ,
he said .
if rob gets voted back in , i think we ' ve got legs for a continued run , for sure .

i’ve been following rob ford since before he was even the mayor . he was in the spotlight long before that , and i’ve been utterly fascinated by him . he’s an interesting character , and to get to play somebody who’s got so many different levels is a real treat and a real trick .
he is like a mixture of a shakespearean and a cartoon character , like no one has ever created . we hear these lovely touching things , like him coaching football . i think that is so honourable and i admire him for that . and then , the next minute , we see a video of him out in the street , belligerent and inebriated in some way . you love to love him and you love to hate him , too .
he really is more complex than i think people realize . i have my work cut out for me . but i sincerely want him to come and see this show — and enjoy it . so i will do whatever i can to portray him in a fair light . there’s certainly ups and downs , but i’d like to portray him on both sides .
i don’t know if there are that many extremely obese , singing crackheads in canada , so i figured that narrowed down the options right away ( laughs ) .
to answer that seriously , i think because i’ve watched him for a lot of years and i have a bit of a fondness and a curiosity for him . i’m certainly taller and chubbier than he is , but i think i do kind of look like him .
it would be an honour to meet him . we’ve put out a note to him and his camp that we’d love to meet him , and we’d also love to have him come to our show .
my diet’s probably way worse than mr . ford’s , so i’m not one to judge there . and i’m a little too chicken to try crack . but there is a scene in the show where i have to play inebriated . i’ve never done a scene drunk before , so i am considering spending one night getting a little tipsy and then recording myself doing the lines just so i can get a feel of what i think it should sound like when i’m under the influence . but i’m not that much of a method actor usually .

toronto - a new musical comedy about toronto ' s embattled mayor doesn ' t open until the middle of the month , but the saskatchewan actor who plays the lead role in the show says some people are already giving him
heck
thinking he ' s the
real
rob ford .
they think i am the mayor , so they will give me heck — ' no more drinking , no more drinking . ' i am not rob ford .
the actor , who bears a resemblance to ford , said his efforts to meet the mayor personally have been unsuccessful , but most people have been very supportive of his artistic endeavour .
meanwhile , the producer of the musical said the show was unlikely to have any impact on next month ' s mayoral election , in which ford is running for re - election .
it would be nice to think that a small little show , a little band of actors could have an impact on a major city election ,
said brett mccaig .
i highly doubt we could sway this election . but it will be nice to think we could .
the musical is not about making ford look horrible or about making him look fantastic , noted the show ' s director , liz gilroy .
we make it very clear that he made some really bad choices and we don ' t forgive him for any of that ,
she said .
but we also try to find his humanity about why he would make those mistakes and who is to blame ?
ford ' s bad choices included his admitted alcohol and drug abuse , for which he spent two months in rehab earlier this year .
his role as mayor has been largely symbolic since november , when city council stripped him of most of his powers following a string of controversies that included the surfacing of videos that appeared to show the mayor making offensive and profane comments .
ticket sales for the upcoming musical are
off the charts
and the reaction to the show is mixed , just like it has been with ford himself , said mccaig .
some people are so angry they want come and see the show . some people love him so much , they want to come and see the show . and there is just people who is interested who want to be part of this pop culture phenomenon .
he also said the show ' s creators had no feedback from ford or his brother , coun . doug ford , about the musical .
we have extended an invitation for them to come opening night . we would love to have them come any night . we will always have two seats available for them ,
said mccaig .

kishore kumar is back on the airwaves with his 1954 hit khush hai zamaana aaj pehli tareekh hai and saamne yeh kaun aaya , dil mein hui hulchul from 1971 running in popular tv commercials . leading the classic revival are dvds of films like dr kotnis ki amar kahani ( 1946 ) , jhanak jhanak payal baaje ( 1955 ) and amar prem ( 1971 ) and cds of songs from geeta dutt , to lata mangeshkar and hemant kumar , all easily available . while a classic never dies , the revival is making waves . saregama , which recently launched gramophones and records of old artistes , says 70 per cent of its sales come from old classics . shemaroo too admits that movies from the pre - 1980s account for one - third of their sales . mohan gopinath , business head , zee classic and zee tv , maintains that films like sholay , amar akbar anthony and mughal - e - azam can give new releases a run for their money . hindi television news anchor vinod dua’s daily prime time show ends with a clip of a bollywood classic . times now’s show total recall , featuring bollywood legends , began nearly four years ago and has maintained a rating
the work of a director whose critical reputation today mainly rests on earlier black and white films produced for prabhat studios of pune ( such as 1939’s manoos / aadmi or “man , ” made in both marathi and hindi ) , jhanak jhanak was a successful attempt to win a mass audience for shantaram’s own rajkamal kalamandir studio in bombay through a lavish spectacle celebrating ( ostensibly ) the glorious heritage of indian classical music and dance . it became the director’s most commercially successful film , was later re - released in 70mm , and remains justly famous today for its songs , dance sequences , and eye - popping fantasy sets , awash in exuberant technicolor .

opens with an aging proponent of dance as high art - - - respectfully called guruji ( keshavrao date ) - - - tearing up posters of a dancing girl and hurling abuses . he is enraged because of the blatant selling - out by his one - time protégée roopkala who now dances for money . his anger is fuelled by the performance of yet another dancing girl , neela ( sandhya ) . after reprimanding a dazed neela , the guru makes his son and disciple girdhar ( gopi kishen ) dance at her home and impress upon her the loftiness of classical dancing .
a converted neela fervently asks the guru to accept her as his disciple . he demands total allegiance to dancing ( '
the guru toils hard to prepare neela as girdhar ' s dance partner for a prestigious competition where he wants girdhar to win the coveted title of bharat natarajan .

her heart begins to pulsate for girdhar . her wide - eyed admiration is instantly reciprocated by the equally - smitten girdhar . but mani babu ( madan puri ) , who has financed neela ' s passion for dancing because he wants to marry her , is incensed ; he promptly squeals to the guru .

tradition , neela decides to keep her guru happy and abandons girdhar , presumably for her patron , mani babu . in a series of dramatic twists - - - the least engaging part of this otherwise fluid film - - - she incurs girdhar ' s wrath , leaves mani babu in the lurch and makes a futile attempt to end her life by jumping into the river . when all else fails , she embraces the life of a mendicant .
however , girdhar and neela ' s destiny seems intractably intertwined . when girdhar reaches the final of the bharat natarajan contest , his partner suddenly abandons him . but the dismayed guru and girdhar are stunned as a pair of feet don the
despite burning with fever , neela has arrived to partner her lover . an angry girdhar is reluctant to perform with the ' unfaithful ' neela but the guru orders him otherwise . a fervour - filled
for one , the role of a keen learner and a dedicated disciple fitted her like a glove . in later films , she showed a marked predisposition for rolling her eyes and shaking her head like a spring doll . these quintessentially sandhya mannerisms , which became second skin to her as the years and the reels rolled by , made only an occasional appearance in this early performance , and so don ' t distract from her endearing naivette .
gopi kishen struggles with his lines and seems raring to break into dance mid - sentence ( and does so too on quite a few occasions ) . but as a choreographer and dancer he holds you spellbound .
the dances make several allusions to mythology , interweaving them intricately into the script . the romantic portion between neela and girdhar draws inspiration from the krishna - radha romance , the blossoming of their love finds its fount in the bhil dance , while seductress menaka ' s bid to seduce sage vishwamitra provides a perfect parallel for neela distracting girdhar from his chosen path .
number , hitting the screen like a tightly - wound up top which is finally unleashed . not just dance - literate viewers but even the hoi polloi are sure to get drawn in by the magnetism of this blend of energy , undiluted anger and immense grace . it ' s sheer poetry in motion .
art director kanu desai ' s sets are lavish but garish . since technicolour was a major attraction , desai probably got carried away by his desire to present the entire gamut of colours . also , the abrupt shift from outdoor locales to sets with painted backdrops , is an avoidable distraction .
between neela ' s domestics , ballu and bindiya ( bhagwan - manorama ) unnecessarily strains the viewer ' s patience . k date as the guru - - - benign one moment , belligerent the next - - elevates the dramatic portions .
despite being a dance musical boasting of two non - stars , the film was a landmark hit . there couldn ' t have been a more befitting testimony of shantaram ' s foresight nor a better reward for his spirit of adventure .
most were sceptical about the film ' s success as it starred an non - established heroine , sandhya , opposite a classical dancer , gopi kishen . however , when the screening ended , there was a standing ovation for shantaram .
since sandhya was not a trained dancer , she was made to rehearse from morning to night by gopi kishen for months on end .

( “the anklebells ring” ) hindi , 1955 , 143 minutes directed by v . shantaram produced by rajkamal kalamandir , ltd . story and dialogues : dewan sharar ; lyrics : hasrat jaipuri ; music : vasant desai ; choreography : gopi krishna ; art direction : kanu desai ; cinematography : g . balkrishna ; audiography : a . k . parmar
its plot concerns the love affair between a male dancer named giridhar ( “the mountain lifter , ” an epither of krishna ; the role was played by the energetic young kathak dancer gopi krishna , who also served as choreographer for the film ) and his partner , neela ( sandhya ) . their love develops while giridhar is undergoing training in the hope of winning a “national” dance contest , held once in a decade at the nateshwar temple ( a fictional shrine to shiva as “lord of dancers” ) . the winner of this competition will gain the coveted title of “bharat natraj” ( “king of indian dancers” ) , a title formerly won by giridhar’s father and guru , the venerable but crotchety mangal maharaj . neela , a young danseuse living in great style thanks to the largesse of her rich patron , mani babu ( who is in love with her ) , begs to be accepted by mangal maharaj as his disciple , after seeing giridhar demonstrate the glories of
true
dance .
she then trains to accompany giridhar in a crucial duet , but when romance begins to develop between them she runs afoul of mangal maharaj , who eventually denounces neela as a “loose” woman out to ruin his son . not wanting to distract giridhar , and pursued by mani babu , whom she now despises , neela flees to the wilderness and attempts suicide by leaping into a river . rescued by a holy man , she briefly becomes an ascetic , adopting the outward appearance and lifestyle of mirabai , the sixteenth century rajput princess who renounced home and family in favor of a mystical “marriage” to krishna ( whom she usually hailed as the mountain - lifting “giridhar” in her original songs ) . when this too earns her only abuse from her own giridhar and his father , neela again attempts to give up her life and is again rescued , this time by her comical domestics bindiya and badalu . giridhar , though still in love with her , is goaded by his father into taking another partner for the duet that must form the climax of the nateshwar contest . she is rupkala , a former student of mangal maharaj who was earlier disowned for selling out to crass commercial promoters . when she ultimately accepts a bribe from mani babu to ruin giridhar’s chances in the competition , the coveted title appears lost—unless , of course , neela can awaken from a comatose state , tie on anklebells , and dance her way back into her former partner’s ( and his father’s ) heart… .
though the film is preoccupied with and ultimately affirming of the value of romantic love—and the audience can readily sympathize with neela’s unjust treatment by giridhar , mangal maharaj , and mani babu—it also seeks to endorse conventional ideals of both patriarchal family and nation . for mangal maharaj , love is a distraction from the austere path of art , which is closely associated with both family honor and “national culture , ” and which requires strict celibacy , at least during the student phase—the ideal of brahmacarya so prized by gandhi and other nationalist thinkers . this celibacy is valorized within a patriarchal and sexist ideology . for although both giridhar and neela express their budding love , it is neela alone who must assume responsibility for being a “distraction” to her male partner and must be chastened by asceticism and suffering nearly - unto - death .
the film’s representation of “pure , authentic” indian dance as a religio - artistic discipline that is preserved through a male guru - disciple succession conveniently elides the historical fact that dance traditions like kathak were often transmitted by unmarried and independent professional women , who came to be despised in the victorian period as sexually - loose “nautch girls”—a stigma that underlies the scorn heaped upon the film’s female soloists by mangal maharaj . yet ironically , the “tradition” of classical dance that the film celebrates is almost entirely invented and in fact heavily inflected by western influences . gopi krishna’s over - the - top choreography owes as much to western ballet and modern dance ( filtered through the balletic spectacles popularized by uday shankar ) as to kathak , and the orchestra - like musical ensembles and synchronized chorus lines reflect the influence of hollywood musicals . the stunning final “contest , ” set in an imaginary shiva temple that contains a modern proscenium arch theater ( on which , in the best busby berkeley tradition , spectacles unfold that could never actually be executed on such a stage ) culminates in a carmen miranda - like number in which women are costumed as brass puja lamps—an apt metaphor for the female body as an accessory for ( male ) spiritual advancement .
