A writer, a director and an actor, it is often said, that his rather rebellious atittude, liberal beliefs, his tendency to make fun of established conventions, did not really endear him to the Hindi movie industry's rather conservative establishment. Hence he spend the latter part of his life making some B grade movies. One of the first Indian actors to appear in Hollywood movies, he also made a series of road movies with his friend, and the movies were named after both of them. During Emergency he was one of the few from the Hindi film industry who openly took on Indira Gandhi's regime, leading to one of his movies being banned too. Identify.

This film won the Palm De Or despite the fact that the jury head, Tennessee Williams detested violent movies. The plot has similarities with Shane, a 1953 George Stevens movie and The Searchers, a 1956 John Ford movie. However, the director has claimed that few of the shot sequences were inspired from Hitchcock’s The Wrong Man. It has been shot in a disinterested documentary style and has been given a greater depth by lengthy improvisations on sessions prior to filming. One example of which is the smoking gutter in the opening credits. Which movie?

In the movie there is a scene where 'Madhuri' <character name> asks Deepak Dobriyal's character if she resembles Tabu, which is an obvious reference to the actress Tabu. This is because many people in the industry at first glance have complimented 'Madhuri' that she looks so much like Tabu, and even the actress Tabu herself has commented this. So Anurag Kashyap wanted to put this idea in the movie. So, who would be 'Madhuri' ?

9Goebbels made sure that the film's print was one of the first things seized by the Germans when they occupied France. He referred to Jean Renoir as "Cinematic Public Enemy Number 1". For many years it was assumed that the film had been destroyed in an Allied air raid in 1942. However, a German film archivist named Frank Hansel, then a Nazi officer in Paris, had actually smuggled it back to Berlin. Then when the Russians entered Berlin in 1945, the film found its way to an archive in Moscow. When Jean Renoir came to restore his film in the 1960s, he knew nothing of Hansel's acquisition and was working from an old muddy print. Purely by coincidence at the same time, the Russian archive swapped some material with an archive in Toulouse. Included in that exchange was the original negative print. However, because so many prints of the film existed at the time, it would be another 30 years before anyone realised that the version in Toulouse was actually the original negative. Which Film ?

Hyperlink cinema are films where the characters or action reside in separate stories, but a connection or influence between those disparate stories is slowly revealed to the audience; illustrated in Mexican director Alejandro González Iñárritu's films Amores Perros (2000), 21 Grams(2003), and Babel (2006).One of first examples of such cinema was displayed in Satyajit Ray's first colour movie. He described the film's narrative structure as follows: "Our audience likes a central character, or a couple of central characters with whom they can identify, and a story with a straight narrative line. It told the story of several groups of characters and it went back and forth. You know, between group one, group two, group three, group four, then back to group one, group two, and so on. It's a very musical form"

Also, instead of writing an entirely new song for the film, Dylan simply wrote out the first verse of “Ballad of ____ ____” and told the filmmakers, “Give this to McGuinn, he’ll know what to do with it.” McGuinn completed the song and performed it for the film.
