I think the film Monsoon Wedding directed by Mira Nair was a very interesting movie that was well acted. The movie took place in Old Delhi and showed the marriage of a young couple, plus other love stories. The movie was full of characters that each had their own story. Such as Aditi the girl to be married but is having an affair, or Ria the cousin that is like a sister but is disturbed by her past. The movie portrays an arranged marriage and shows two Indian groups the Punjabis and the Bengali. It also shows conflict when the father Lalit has to choose with what is considered right and his daughter’s word. The costumes and set design are beautifully done, with all the colors; it expresses well the main aspects of an Indian wedding. This movie makes you think about differences in culture and tradition. I would give these movie 3 1/2 stars or 85%.
