I used to travel 20miles to watch this at a cinema.

Rating: 8/10 (9 September 2018)

I used to go from Andheri in Mumbai to Victoria terminus which is 25 kilometres away just to watch this film at Sterling Cinema. I'm a fan of this film and it's spirit. One of the defining feminist films of my growing up years. I suddenly got to see a beaufiful film set in a part of the world I'd never been to and see this woman who is a single mother and seems down and out, have so much courage and bravery. Like a lioness. And then to still be at ease with her vanity and let you deal with it and not have any qualms with how she was perceived. Wow. Julia Roberts nails it. One of her careee defining performances.
