Saw "Outsourced" last night, the story of an American who goes to India to 'straighten out' a call center in a small town Maharashtra. Very good movie, and very true. Undoubtedly the most accurate film of the experiences of an American in India that I've seen. A lot of fun, and the love story aspect was similar to the experiences of my wife and me. Showed the beauty and charm of India on a very personal scale.

Ha! Same old story: boy meets girl, they fall in love. Complication: girl intends to have arranged marriage. What to do? Fate (or in the case of Outsourced, Durga) intervenes. Everyone lives happily ever after.


We also saw Singh is Kinng for our first 2-movie weekend in 15 years. Fun, but not in the same class.
