19 What feature
bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

This was credited as ground-breaking among its contemporaries for its innovative use of the medium of film According to the film historian Kevin Brownlow the film was astounding in its time and initiated so many advances in film-making technique that it was rendered obsolete within a few years The content of the work however has received widespread criticism for its blatantly racist and fantastical depictions of scenes that are presented onscreen as if in documentary form Film critic Roger Ebert wrote It presents a challenge for modern audiences Unaccustomed to silent films and uninterested in film history they find it quaint and not to their taste Those evolved enough to understand what they are looking at find the early and wartime scenes brilliant but cringe during the post-war and Reconstruction scenes which are racist in the ham-handed way of an old minstrel show or a vile comic pamphlet

This was credited as ground-breaking among its contemporaries for its innovative use of the medium of film According to the film historian Kevin Brownlow the film was astounding in its time and initiated so many advances in film-making technique that it was rendered obsolete within a few years The content of the work however has received widespread criticism for its blatantly racist and fantastical depictions of scenes that are presented onscreen as if in documentary form Film critic Roger Ebert wrote It presents a challenge for modern audiences Unaccustomed to silent films and uninterested in film history they find it quaint and not to their taste Those evolved enough to understand what they are looking at find the early and wartime scenes brilliant but cringe during the post-war and Reconstruction scenes which are racist in the ham-handed way of an old minstrel show or a vile comic pamphlet

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

This was credited as ground-breaking among its contemporaries for its innovative use of the medium of film According to the film historian Kevin Brownlow the film was astounding in its time and initiated so many advances in film-making technique that it was rendered obsolete within a few years The content of the work however has received widespread criticism for its blatantly racist and fantastical depictions of scenes that are presented onscreen as if in documentary form Film critic Roger Ebert wrote It presents a challenge for modern audiences Unaccustomed to silent films and uninterested in film history they find it quaint and not to their taste Those evolved enough to understand what they are looking at find the early and wartime scenes brilliant but cringe during the post-war and Reconstruction scenes which are racist in the ham-handed way of an old minstrel show or a vile comic pamphlet

This was credited as ground-breaking among its contemporaries for its innovative use of the medium of film According to the film historian Kevin Brownlow the film was astounding in its time and initiated so many advances in film-making technique that it was rendered obsolete within a few years The content of the work however has received widespread criticism for its blatantly racist and fantastical depictions of scenes that are presented onscreen as if in documentary form Film critic Roger Ebert wrote It presents a challenge for modern audiences Unaccustomed to silent films and uninterested in film history they find it quaint and not to their taste Those evolved enough to understand what they are looking at find the early and wartime scenes brilliant but cringe during the post-war and Reconstruction scenes which are racist in the ham-handed way of an old minstrel show or a vile comic pamphlet

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

4 What was this film and what lsquosecond erarsquo re-formation was credited to it KQAStylz
This was credited as ground-breaking among its contemporaries for its innovative use of the medium of film According to the film historian Kevin Brownlow the film was astounding in its time and initiated so many advances in film-making technique that it was rendered obsolete within a few years The content of the work however has received widespread criticism for its blatantly racist and fantastical depictions of scenes that are presented onscreen as if in documentary form Film critic Roger Ebert wrote It presents a challenge for modern audiences Unaccustomed to silent films and uninterested in film history they find it quaint and not to their taste Those evolved enough to understand what they are looking at find the early and wartime scenes brilliant but cringe during the post-war and Reconstruction scenes which are racist in the ham-handed way of an old minstrel show or a vile comic pamphlet

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

There exist 72 stone steps before the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia and the spot has become a major cultural icon Tourists believe that these steps are a metaphor for lsquoan underdog or an unheard of person rising up to a difficult challengersquo which is why a particular name was given to these steps There have been a lot of representations in the media and pop-culture about this spot and it also saw the passage of the 1996 Olympic Torch Relay

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

2 What are these steps called
There exist 72 stone steps before the entrance of the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Philadelphia and the spot has become a major cultural icon Tourists believe that these steps are a metaphor for lsquoan underdog or an unheard of person rising up to a difficult challengersquo which is why a particular name was given to these steps There have been a lot of representations in the media and pop-culture about this spot and it also saw the passage of the 1996 Olympic Torch Relay

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

ldquoFreebie Marketingrdquo is when company sells an item for a low price or gives it away under the premise that accessories and supplies for that item will bring in repeat business The basic premise is that customers love to get things for free and retailers love to give away free items that require expensive accessories or supplies to run Here are a few examples
- Printers and ink cartridges- Atomisers and cleaning fluid- Game consoles and video games- Mobile phones and service contracts
The most prominent example of freebie marketing is widely attributed to a particular industry In fact the prevalence of freebie marketing is so large in the industry that freebie marketing is alternatively known as ldquoX and Y marketingrdquo with its motto being ldquoGive them the X sell them the Yrdquo X and Y please

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature

bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

bull In the past movies came in two or more reels and theatres needed time to switch reels With the advent of digital projection the requirement for this vanished Today no Hollywood movies contain this feature but it still remains as a vestige of a bygone era in India
bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue

Only Time is a song composed and recorded by Irish singer Enya first released in November 2000 During the summer of 2001 NBC used the song in commercials to promote Friends which ended its season on a cliffhanger The exposure helped the song gain familiarity and increased radio play As a result the song became Enyas first top 40 radio hit in 12 years On November 13 2013 a campaign featuring the song was launched and promptly went viral This caused Only Time to re-enter the Billboard Hot 100 at 43 and the UK Singles Chart at 95 What campaign was launched on November 13 2013 K-Circle Weekly 06092014

bull Hollywood movies screened in India however retain this feature
bull Indian movies are actually scripted around this feature often timed at a point where the narrative breaks down separating the emotional hyperboles that are essential to mainstream Indian cinema
bull Recently however this feature is showing signs of dying out In Aamir Khanrsquos Dhobi Ghat for example it did not feature at all More recently Udaan joined the ranks of movies that are moving away from the trend However it takes a lot of effort to convince multiplexes and theatre operators to remove this ldquocornerstone of the movie-going experiencerdquo because it provides around 90 of their revenue
