(1997) My Son The Fanatic
DRAMA
Adapted from the short story b y Hanif Kureishi with an already East Indian descent, Parvez (Om Puri) of more than 25 years while driving a cab builds a rapport with prostitute, Bettina (Rachael Griffith) who would eventually meet with Parvez's rebellious son, Farid (Akbar Kurtha) slowly becoming a fanatic.
Does a good job on how East Indians are sometimes mistreated when residing in another country. Showed some interesting things about what is happening in England such as how the cabbies make a little extra money while coinciding with an English brothel. At times the film dawdles too long on certain scenes.
