We bone up on our Indian history with three biopics about revolutionaries during the Indian independence movement.
Show notes:
- The Indian independence movement lasted from 1857 to 1947, but keep in mind we are not experts in Indian history when listening to this episode...
- Episode 88: Playing With The Past: Gandhi and Rang De Basanti with Torrey Dance
- What we learned about India in history class (basically nothing)
- Cycles of revolution: the 1857 Sepoy Uprising inspires HRSA in the 20s and 30s, inspires the assassination of O’Dwyer in 1940
- Mangal Pandey: The Rising
- The “cartridge controversy”, as explained in Flashman in the Great Game (George Macdonald Fraser, 1975)
- BSD performances
- “Good” English-language villain actors
- The Legend of Bhagat Singh
- Non-cooperation movement
- Is Ajay Devgn too old to play Bhagat Singh?
- Sardar Udham
- Vicky Kaushal is having an amazing year
- Shoojit Sircar’s directorial range
- Jallianwala Bagh massacre
- Koozhangal (Pebbles) and India’s submission to the Oscars
Next time: 2021 year-end wrap-up
