Gangs of Wasseypur (2012)
« on: July 14, 2016, 03:53:27 PM »
Has anybody else seen this fantastic Indian gangster drama?  I loved it.  Fans of Goodfellas and City of God should definitely check it out. 

It may be underseen because nobody's sure if it's a movie, or two movies, or four, or what.  Netflix has it on Watch It Now has an 8 episode season.  But it was originally screened at Cannes in 2012 as a single, 319 minute film.  That's a lot of minutes; I'd recommend watching it as Part 1 and Part 2, a la the Godfather.

Almost watched it last week when I had time for a long movie, but I went with The Emigrant Saga instead. (The Emigrant and The New Land totaling about 7 hours of Swedish misery.)

It's on my short list when I'm in the mood for something long.
