Hombre (1967)
one of the best western's ever
John Russell/Paul Newman plays a white man who is raised by the apache community of Indian's.the story starts a bit slow with john Russell going to town to sell a lodging house he has inherited.the story picks up when a doctor 'fever' and his wife 'Audra' hire a stagecoach to go to a city and 5 others including john Russell join them. Audra and fever treat john in a derogatory manner as he is raised by Indian's.the rest of the movie is about Paul Newman trying to make a point about himself to fever and Audra,and also about apaches community of the Indian's.
Paul Newman rocks as usual with is natural charm,a cowboy kinda look with a captivating smile. he used a similar look later on in his career to give him one of his biggest hits 'butch cassidy and the sundance kid'.the blue eyed actor steals the show from start to finish..the movie does have its weak links but Paul Newman holds it together and as rightly named its this 'hombre' that rocks the show. A must watch for all you folks out there:)
Outsourced (2010)
A well made comedy with a great blend
outsourcing is a hot and happening subject and this is a series totally based on that.it did start of well with a bang only to lose its flair midway,but did come back strong around the end of the season.sadly its heard that there wont be any further seasons of this indo-us combo due to viewer ship issue.but tell u what being an Indian i personally don't feel the series as offensive,even though only the poorer parts of Mumbai have been emphasizes and shown in the series.
Ben rappaport as Todd/manager does an excellent job,Gupta and Charlie are probably the most comic characters in the show with Charlie coming up with some rave ideas and Gupta being as dumb and disgusting as possible.also the Indian accent and u.s culture blending with Indian culture makes it a good watch.
well all in all a good series with a brilliant concept which should be given a try by all of them out there and truly deserves one more season at least.....
