Two weeks ago I saw the movie "The Darjeeling Limited" at the Palm Theatre in SLO. The movie was about three American brothers who haven't spoken to each other in a long time and therefore meet for a train trip across India. The goal of their spiritual journey is to bond again. They start exploring the Indian culture during their time on the train, until they suddenly find themselves stranded in the middle of the desert. After the brothers save drowning children out of a river, one of them unfortunately dies, they get invited to stay with the Indian tribe and to attend the funeral.The movie was more a colorful, witty big stereotype picture of India and their people than anything else. Still, I felt like I was riding with the three brothers on the train and looking at the storybook-scenery of India or walking with them through the markets, which aroused my curiosity about this country even more. If you're interested in seeing nice pictures of India and have a couple of laughs (I would compare it to an Indian Winnetou-Western), this is certainly worth watching.
