Bollywood 2009 / Director: Ashutosh Gowariker
Jodhaa Akbar
New Bollywood fi lm from the director of 2001’s Oscar-nominated ”Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India” tells an epic, 16th century love story about a marriage of alliance that gave birth to true love between a great Mughal emperor and a Hindu princess. Gowariker has a marvelous sense of epic storytelling – and not just in length (at three hours and 33 minutes, ”Jodhaa Akbar” is only a few minutes shorter than ”Lagaan”). The Indian director displays a heroic sense of visual composition and frames characters in vivid relief against the landscape and interior backgrounds.
