Monsoon Wedding
Mira Nair, 2001, IN, 114'

The bride’s parents are nervous, the bride and groom are just getting to know one another, the wedding planner is falling in love: what could go wrong? Winner of the Golden Lion at Venice, Nair’s film deftly delivers two weddings, a monsoon, a dance number, and – most memorably – Ria, a young student, confronting her abusive, wealthy cousin.
