Posted: 3/24/06 at 10:52pmSo I go to see the new movie Inside Man tonight, the movie starts, and a song begins playing that I swear is from Bombay Dreams. I wait through the credits and, sure enough, it's "Chaiyya Chaiyya" by A. R. Rahman. It was used for the final credits as well, with a rap vocal added. I know Rahman has written music for countless Bollywood films, but it was pretty interesting that the film makers chose this song. I wonder if Spike Lee saw Bombay Dreams on Broadway....?

I just noticed that Denzel rhymes with Menzel.
How nifty.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 10:32amBTW, it's a very good movie. Go see. Denzel is great. Christopher Plummer is always reliable--is there any actor Plummer's age that gets as much work as he does??

Posted: 3/25/06 at 3:31pmI know this is a total off-topic response, but why does Clive Owen have billing above Jodie Foster? I know he's somewhat "hot" right now, but she's a two-time Academy Award winner, who's last couple of movies(that she's headlined) have done well at the box office. I just don't get it. Everytime I see the ad for the movie, I want to have this rant. Thank you.

Posted: 3/25/06 at 6:39pmI just got back from the movie. VERY GOOD. Clive Owen has a huge part compared to Jodie Foster. She's only in maybe 5 scenes and her character just isn't as large as Owen's. You should all go see this movie. Star-studded cast that all performed wonderfully. GREAT plot.
