I didn’t even bother to try finding the source material to watch along. This was one of the most impactful, hopeful, scarifying, poignant movies I’ve ever seen. I saw it in the theater, and I’m not yet prepared to see it again. I just put my phone down and listened to you reacting, and based on your responses, I could conjure all the scenes in my mind more than 15 years later. My heart was pounding and my breath caught many times during this, just remembering it as you were emoting. I think it’s such an important movie, and it did for my understanding of second world, former colonial countries what The Wire did for my understanding of inner cities; it showed how corrupt institutions and the legacy of inequity shapes people, including how different people respond differently to their circumstances. This has the irrepressible vibrancy of Indian life to color their experience, but it doesn’t sanitize anything to make it tourism-bait. I heard that Danny Boyle applied for permits to film in India, and they were rejected because the government didn’t like the script, so he just filmed it anyway without permission. Anyway, I saw it before I saw “City of God,” for which I am grateful. I’m disappointed I’m the only one to comment here, but not surprised that the Uncut version got more engagement. I still don’t feel comfortable watching the Uncut versions you post, because it really does feel like copyright infringement. Like, if I declined to subscribe to Apple TV or buy this movie on DVD to watch along, but used your version to watch instead, then that’s revenue loss for the copyright holder. When I joined your channel months ago, I chose to spend my Patreon budget on this channel instead of a different channel because of your synch-and-watch stance, which aligned with my values.

It is incredibly impactful and definitely a movie that I will be thinking about forever. I don't know how rewatchable this will be for me but it's certainly a film that I'll never forget
