Yesterday I had the day off. The perfect opportunity to do all my favorite things.
I started the day off with an ear-freezing walk on the beach with my faithful canine companion
Jumpin' Jack Flash. The with the help of Betty D, my faithful GPS device, I explored all the great shopping in the Plymouth area (love that Ulta) while munching on Pop Tarts and Startbucks coffee.
Just when you think it couldn't possibly get any better I navigated my way to the movies and saw "Slumdog Millionaire". In a word "wow". After spending the night sleepless in Marshfield,
I got to thinking about Indian films I have enjoyed, although Slumdog Millionaire is technically not an Indian film as it is directed by Brit Danny Boyle--of Trainspotting and 28 Days Later fame.
Some good Indian films that we have here in the Waltham Pulbic Library are:
Asoka
Darjeeling Unlimited
Lagaan
Love Guru
Mississippi Marsala
Monsoon Wedding
Salaam Bombay
Sholay
This is just a few of many great Indian movies to get you started if you are unfamiliar with the
genre.

Happy viewing.
