Lagaan: Once Upon A Time In India. Absolutely tremendous. You need to be open to the Bollywood vibe and there are some musical numbers in it, which normally in a film I find to be about as enjoyable as a bite from a puff adder, but the whole thing is fantastic. It's only available on DVD & the picture quality isn't quite out of the top drawer but never mind about that; the film is imbued with tremendous energy and the song & dance numbers are beautiful to watch with their riot of colour & sound. The entire soundtrack is absolutely stunning; just about the best I've ever come across. Yes, it's that good. At the end of the film (over 3.5 hrs worth), your DSPs will be very relieved as they will have had a very thorough workout. The music is driven along by quite brilliant percussion & the OST is an essential purchase, IMO. Very highly recommended.
