Orientalism's Revenge

[dangermousie]

I love period movies, so am mildly curious about upcoming The Flag, in which Ashmit Patel fights the British while having time to dance colorfully.

Let me guess the plot.

Evil English:



Plot the Ravishment of the virtuous Heroine:



But Ashmit saves her while being smeared with pomegranate juice:



Country being liberated, he retires to follow his dream as a maker of scarves to Aamir Khan in Ghajini:





Seriously though, I think this movie is fair enough reversal of things like Gunga Din.
