Is this the film that will actually supersede Slumdog Millionaire (2008)?, the moot during which time was long far from the film itself than only, rashly inadequately its trailer. The Lunchbox, at normally and teasingly brief preview, and from where Russovoir chanced once as opposed to tenuous trailers he has had seen aplenty, had been contently enough and not a moment had passed since that it was on Russovoir's presiding better judgement, on bizarre occasions, hungry.
Burdensome, in vain anticipation of what was supposedly on the 28th of February film premiere, Russovoir consoled with the thought that it had now become a St. Patrick's Day special; while people are filing, piling outside pubs with their outrageous ensembles with the color green (a historical inaccuracy, presumably), Russovoir toils to the one and only movie house in the stupor of vast Chicago for this independent film. After which he couldn't walk in a straight line.
Allegory. The Lunchbox packs it. There is beauty, not particular of the visual than of the ritual; charming, delicate, raw; unadorned with anything but a sustainable, mysterious, possibly scandalous story.
And yes, the film does make one hungry. Director and screenwriter Ritesh Batra took it upon himself, and influentially because he's a local, to showcase a number of if not popular, accustomed dishes of the Indian palette. No preservatives were added, so to speak, instead was fresh in presenting modern-day India (daunting to those who haven't had been). Sure, India is filthy, grossly populous, and antiquated, but the road to fine cinema is paved with Indian silk; this film in an overly crowded, sweltering train, as well as richness in culture and flavorful, bold, insatiable, craveable recipe of quality story writing; anywhere the train goes, Russovoir aboards.
