East is East even today tells it how it is..
When I first saw this film, it hit the nail on the head. Coming from a pakistani family, although my family is very modern.. I do see a resemblance in many places I go where families are very strict and have had problems from arranged marraiges.
It's about a father of 6 sons and 1 daughter, being stuck in his ways of old traditions that he's brought with him from pakistan - wanting to marry his sons off to women they've never met.. wanting to do his community proud and having his children be better people in the eyes of Islam.
Plenty of comedy in this film.. I can't think of a film to compare this with - I have to admit I think this film is in a league of it's own and if there is anyone out there who didn't find this hilarious, I'd be very interested in meeting you.
Seen this film a good 15-20 times now but HAD to add it to my collection on DVD.. add this to yours too!
