Cinema is a very powerful instrument that may be applied in both directions. Both individuals and films have an impact on each other. Because it both reflects and has an impact on our society, Parallel Cinema is crucial. The paintings of Sen, Benegal, and Ray sent their audience a political statement regarding the societal problems they depicted.
Parallel Cinema, which drew inspiration from Italian Neorealism, appeared just before the French, Japanese, and Indian New Waves in the 1960s.
The rise and fall of parallel cinema
The 1970s and 1980s saw the peak of parallel cinema in India. Parallel cinema gave careers to a whole new breed of young actors at the time including Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, Amol Palekar, Om Puri, Naseeruddin Shah, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Pankaj Kapoor, Deepti Naval, Farooq Shaikh, and even actors from commercial cinema like Hema Malini, Raakhee, and Rekha who ventured into art cinema. However, due to the commercialization of films in the early 1990s, parallel cinema saw a fall. Parallel cinema films are primarily made using funds and the rising costs involved in film production made it difficult to make parallel films. However, it can be seen that there is a resurgence in parallel cinema once again.
(via The extravagant nostalgia of street childhood)
Vittorio De Sica is one of the profound and remarkable film directors and so known for his extravagant work, creating drastic impact, through his realistic storytelling and ardent screenplay, which continues to mesmerise the generation till today, he has created such drastic elements from the day to day society that it transcends the viewer to watch enactment of surrealist performances and intuitive storytelling. the Shoeshine is also one such movie from 46 which appears so afresh, even till today, so here is the review, to get a better contrast on the vision of Vittorio De Sica!
Girish Karnad's Utsav (1984) is a true piece of art, sculptures and costumes.
Vasantsena a courtier in search of love flatters
Charudatta who is a married man and how she gets along with his family.
Aditi (Charudatta's Wife) when asked why she let's her (Vasantsena) stay in her house even when she should be against it.
She tells various reason to let her stay but I have found one reason that she doesn't is she also likes Vasantsena more than just as his husband's lover.
The role of the king who desires Vasantsena was to be played by Amitabh Bachchan but for medical reasons he couldn't and the producer (Shashi Kapoor) himself played the role.
