‘The Brittle Thread’: Weaving dreams and selves

  • Tito Genova Valiente
  • November 18, 2021

Rani is a dancer. When she performs, her movements come to us, outsiders, as one of those sensuous dances in Indian rituals. But in Ritesh Sharma’s The Brittle Thread, the English subtitles subvert our illusions and cultural memories of old India: Rani is dancing to a melody with lyrics that are more vulgar than erotic. Onstage a young man dances with Rani, fulfilling for the audience their fantasies. It does not matter that in the audience are children ogling at the gyrations onstage. At one point, the dancer needs to be wet and another man pours a water using a sprinkler. It is a choreography of pathos and bathos—the cheap act has cheap props.

Two cowboys

  • Emmanuel Dooc
  • May 29, 2020

Two cowboys, one deceased and the other still very much active, have refused to ride into the sunset with their memorable cinematic achievements. Both were the top box office stars during their heyday and their devoted fans celebrate their birthday anniversaries five days apart. They enjoyed parallel careers in the movies and became famous in western genre films. Both were actors, directors, filmmakers and winners of the Academy Awards. They were the most popular actors of their generation and topped the movie charts for decades in the 20th century. They both became active in politics. One actively campaigned for his friend, Ronald Reagan, when he ran for Governor of California and later as President of the US. The other actually served as Mayor of Carmel, California. They were respected by their peers, and enjoyed the adoration of their legions of fans around the world. Aside from movie awards, they were accorded distinctive honors outside the film industry. They have remained movie icons up to now and they belonged to Hollywood’s ranks of immortals.
