The show eases off the accelerator to focus on a single film this week. Acclaimed director Ramin Bahrani (Chop Shop, Goodbye Solo) is back with a new film for Netflix that positions itself as the anti-Slumdog Millionaire. Adapted from Aravind Adiga's novel of the same title, The White Tiger tells a story of a lower-caste servant in India (Adarh Gourav) who chafes under the yoke of his family's poverty and does what he thinks he must in order to get ahead. Part Goodfellas, part Parasite, Bahrani's latest takes aim at the wealth disparities of modern India and examines how festering class resentments can boil over into violence, anger, and injustice from rich and poor alike.

It will be similar to BFMK, except that it features people making moves in the greater world instead of having a specific focus on China. We have ONE last regular “BFMK” interview show dropping on Monday, January 28, so please enjoy that, and this one!

Apenas conocido dentro de su país, Ramin Bahrani es uno de los grandes nombres de la nueva camada del cine estadounidense. La razón, quizás, está en las cosas que le interesan: el trabajo, las minorías, las vidas comunes y corrientes. Todos temas que el cine gringo rara vez se da el lujo de tocar... Este podcast está dedicado a sus primeras tres películas: - Man Push Cart (2005) - Chop Shop (2007) - Goodbye Solo (2009)

A conversation with filmmaker Ramin Bahrani, director of Man Push Cart, Chop Shop and the new Goodbye Solo. Roger Ebert calls Bahrani "the new great American director."

On this episode we talk about our favorite (and other noteworthy) films from this year's Toronto International Film Festival, including RACHEL GETTING MARRIED, STILL WALKING, GOODBYE SOLO, 35 SHOTS OF RUM, THE WRESTLER, SUMMER HOURS, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE, and CHE plus experimental films by Nathaniel Dorsky and James Benning.
