Film is art
31 January 2021
Incredible how many commentators believe this film is literally a calling for the poor to kill the rich. The film is social commentary but above all it is art. Story telling that uses extremes tells us something greater about ourselves and the world around us. The film interrogates the problems of caste and poverty. It highlights the contradictions in society and how the suffering of millions is so easily obscured. His master will never truly comprehend the misery that surrounds all those in his wake. The darker conclusion of the film is that if justice is not possible at all, then how will progress ever be made. Brilliant acting throughout, thought provoking and stylish. Highly recommend.
