Just rented this the other day. It was a good rental. It is a Indian film based on the early life of one of its big buddhist teachers. It was a little bit of a musical .I don't know if this is a normal component of Indian films because I just have not watched that many of them. My only real complaint is the subtitles where all in white and it got lost in the background a lot. I have noticed that in the two Indian films I have watched lately how closely the movies music was to our modern dance music. I was wondering who copied who on this one. Cheers

This vehicle (pun intended) stars Anthony Hopkins as Burt Munro in a mostly-biographic film about the later part of Munro's life. That's the part where the lovable, eccentric New Zealander hocks everything he has and takes his nearly 50-year-old, modified Indian motorcycle on a journey... -
WINDTALKERS.
John Woo, the master of action films, does his magic in Windtalkers. It's a good old fashioned war film, and though the back story deals with how Navajos were used ( their native tongue) to create a code for communications. It was the one wartime code that was never broken....
