Barfi, Barfi, Barfi.
I don’t know what I expected from Barfi, but it blew away any expectations. It was poignant, its performances wonderful, and yet it was still funny.
Barfi is definitely a romance and an entertainer — but still artsy. So it appealed to me on several levels, and I’ll try to address them all, from simple to complex.
Before I begin anything, let me say this: I loved this movie. I would definitely recommend seeing it. It’s different — really, actually different — and enjoyable. I say this first because I’m not sure my other commentary on the movie will adequately convey how much I enjoyed the film. Talking about Barfi seems to be fairly easy; describing why I like it is not.
But on to the movie.
