Mira Nair's 2001 film "Monsoon Wedding," is a view of an Indian family through the window of a wedding.
In Bollywood style, the scenes and clothes are as colorful as the characters. The Verma family is celebrating their daughter's impending marriage to a young man of their choosing. However, she may not be ready to be someone's wife.
It's a romantic comedy rich with culture and the importance of family.
I genuinely enjoyed this film, not because of its happy ending or convenient romance but because of the family dynamic, the music, and the richness of the characters. By the end of the film, I felt like part of the family because I had laughed, cried, wondered, and rejoiced with them.
