As a firm believer in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, I must admit, that the book was well written. The cast of the movie is top notch. However the movie is complete blasphemy against our Lord. The Bible clearly shows the Life of Jesus, no where does it mention Him being married or having children. \nIt is sad, but true, that many Christians and non-Christians that watch this movie are going to be shown a perverted view of Jesus Christ.\nIf somebody was really interested in learning about the Lord God, please I encourage you to pick up a Bible. \nCompare how Jesus fulfills all the prophecies about the coming messiah. Some of which were written 500+ years before His birth.\n\nJohn 3:16- For God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son, that whoever shall believe in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but that the world through Him might be saved.\n18 He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believe in the name of the only begotten Son of God

I love that movie!  It taught me some important lessons too.\n\nLesson was...life or friendship or love is more important than mere objects.  And that could go for concepts too---life is more important than tightly holding onto some concepts.

I can not answer myself, but as it is a really interesting question I just googled-it... and found these two great links.\nThe first one is an article from the main page of the nobel.org: Mahatma Gandhi, the Missing Laureate\nby Øyvind Tønnesson,Nobel e-Museum Peace Editor, 1998-2000\n\nOf course may be is a lot of the story we'll never know!!

No!\n\n"Sonia Gandhi is an Italian born Catholic who has only been a citizen of India for fifteen years and has never held any public office. She has done very little study of the older traditions of the country. Nevertheless, she is calling the shots for the oldest political party in India, the Congress Party, and is being projected as a possible Prime Minister candidate. \n\nOne wonders if the old freedom fighters of the party, who sacrificed so much to end foreign rule in the land, ever thought that their own party would be so short of native born candidates that it would require a foreign born person to lead the country within fifty years of independence. Would one ever see an Indian-born Hindu projected as an Italian Prime Minister because of marital ties? \n\nRecently Sonia apologized to the Muslims for the destruction of the Babri Masjid that occurred during Congress rule in 1992. In this regard Sonia should criticize her own husband, Rajiv Gandhi, who himself allowed the locks of the Babri Masjid to be opened in 1989 for Hindus to worship (not for Muslims!) \n\nMoreover, if Sonia is sincere in her apology she should promise to rebuild the Babri Masjid if her party comes to power. If she is not promising to rebuild the site, how can she claim that it was wrong to take it down? Of course as a non-Hindu and not born in India this might be easier for her to do. It is very difficult for a Hindu to go down in history as restoring the monument of a foreign invader on the birthplace of the nation's greatest hero, Lord Ram. \n\nOne also wonders, if as a Christian, Sonia will apologize to Hindus for Christian discrimination against Hindus through the centuries of Portuguese, French and British rule in the country. Massive efforts were made to convert Hindus to Christianity, which included denigration of Hindu beliefs and practices, and in a number of instances defacing or destruction of Hindu temples and idols. \n\nWhat rights have Christians, with a history of religious intolerance and genocide, to criticize Hindus in matters of religious tolerance, who have never invaded any country or used the force of arms to convert any one? \n\nIf Sonia is so open-minded about religion, let her say that Hinduism is as good as Christianity and that it is wrong and intolerant for Christians, including Catholics, to seek to convert Hindus. One must remember that the Catholic church recently excommunicated a priest in Sri Lanka merely for writing that other religions could be as good as Christianity! \n\nOne cannot forget that Catholic missionary activities, targeting Hindus for conversion, still prevail throughout the country. In South India, Catholic priests dress up like Hindu swamis in order to deceive the local people into thinking that they are holy men like Hindu Yogis. Such a local appearance was found to be safer for promoting conversion activities. Is Sonia Gandhi a political version of the same? She sports her tilak and wears a sari like a Hindu woman, using a Hindu name and appearance to gain votes, but she has not spoken out in defense of Hindus on any cause. \n\nSonia recently apologized to the Sikhs for the violence agaisnt them that occurred after her mother-in-law was assassinated in 1984. She should blame her own party and her own husband for the anti-Sikh violence that they perpetrated and the lack of punishment for it that they allowed. Rajiv Gandhi did nothing in his five years of rule after the incident. Sonia should also blame Indira Gandhi for her wrong policies that alienated the Sikhs and caused them to turn against her. \n\nIf Sonia does not do these things we can only look upon her projecting a hypocritical appearance, of ignoring missionary agendas, and as insensitive to Hindu religious sentiments. \n\nOf course, India is a tolerant and a secular country. An American or British political party could never project a foreign born non-Christian as their leader, particularly if the religion involved denigrated

I liked the book and cant wait for the movie to come out. I think the reason why most people don't like it is because it challenges religion and most of the nations beliefs. I see it this way anything is possible........

Well it was supposed to be banned after Gandhi, but there is still a lot of abused towards women there. It is a matter of educating those people that still have that mentality. I believe the women should make a stand for themselves and finish this sick circle.

I completely feel you on this...I've seen that movie myself, and a few others.  There are so many questions, I don't understand how people can just ignore it...and in fact get mad at you for questioning it!  Isn't that the point of democracy, being allowed to examine what's going on and make an educated decision?  Don't let the mean remarks that you will inevitably get bring you down...you are a thinker, and that is to be commended!\n\nEDIT: Nikki, here is the link:  http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7218920724339766288&q=loose+change

all right... it was a very painful movie, not because it's boring and not good at all but because it was so powerful you'd feel real pain watching some scenes in the movie. it's also directed by the great miike (he's seen in the movie hostel!).\n\nhere goes. this man just lost his wife and his son's actually okay with the idea of his dad being remarried again. he held an audition but that was a front - because he really wanted to meet the girl he would want to marry through this, so he met this girl. but it turned out that this girl had a very dark past and led him into something really painful. painful is just the right term for all of this. anyway, i don't want to tell you all the details. i suggest you try to find a copy of this movie and watch it. trust me, it's good. :)

Are you analyzing the just the symbolism of the sows head or the entire movie?  I think the movie shows what the basics of human nature are and how we will revert back to them once survival becomes a primary concern.  Nice work on the analysis.

Mahatma Gandhi said "An eye for an eye will make the world blind" .  Revengeful reactions will never end. If an individual try to avenge a particular action , it will become endless and whole humanity gets affected.

Good question,....\nFirstly, I would like to say that comparisons are inevitable. People will always compare both of these films, because that is just natural to do so.\nBut, I believe that we should see the new version of Umrao Jaan, which is played by Aishwarya Rai, as an individual and different product than the older version, acted by Rekha. \nOne thing which should be considered is, that these are two actresses are from two different generations, playing the role of the same women. Hence, differences will automatically occur in the movies, but without differences and changes, wouldn't the movie appear boring and ordinary?\n\nIf Aishwarya Rai would do everything allike to what Rekha had done in the original movie, then what is the point of re-making the movie?\n\nThus, I think we should learn to appreciate Aishwarya Rai's effort in acting in the skin of Umrao Jaan as a parallel line to the acting perfomed by Rekha, and not to join these two lines together and to view them as actresses who have given effort to play this character.

This is an issue which everyone of us (indians) would have thought of and debated about. Contrary to what everybody feels it is not a top down problem but rather a BOTTOM-TOP problem.\n\nEvery one, is materialistic and wants to achieve things at any cost. I strongly feel the answer is a resolve in everybody to not to give in to corruption i.e never take favours or give favours. \n\nIf Gandhiji could win freedom from the Britsh Empire by non-violence, truth and non-cooperation; the same applies to corruption.\n\nThough it is easier said than done - we need to elect a person who is:\n1. Educated\n2. Has integrity\n3. Leadeship\n4. Honest.\n\nI donot say we donot have such people but our people are not educated enough to identify such persons from the overwhelming crowd of greedy politicians. Due to the lack of education and awareness of their power in a democracy they give in to the lures of politicians - as demonstrated in the recent Tamilnadu elections where the opposition party came in to power by promising Rice for Rs 2/kg and Free colour televisions.\n\nIt is difficult but possible to eliminate it with concerted efforts of youth, educated and the media
