Heart wrenching

Rating: 10/10 (20 August 2019)

A really very nice take on biopics. It is like two or three films with different flavour are joined very nicely. the first 50 minutes are well directed. One can watch and understand it without dialogue. A visually strong part.
The part where Dev Patel and Rooney Mara starts romance (with Rahman's URVASHI URVASHI in background) is lovely.
Theme is strong and so many can connect with that with their perspective. The montages of switching shots between two different countries, India and Tasmania, are really good and moving. The one scene with google earth montages is also powerful.
Cinema as a medium is brilliantly used in this real life story.
applaus for internet. 💐💐💝💝💕
(Lion is a story about a boy who is lost, came very far from home and then been adopted by a family in Tasmania. After he grew up, he starts to find the home.)
