140: The Night is Dark and Silent: Gyan Mukherjee's Kismet and Sangram

Bollywood is For Lovers

It’s that time of year where we polish our guns and light up our cigarettes, it’s Noirvember time and we are up to no good with two Ashok Kumar classics.
Notes:

• Apologies for the sound quality, we discovered after recording that we had set up our mic improperly
• Noirvember and our Noirvember playlist
• Park Chan-wook isn’t a fan of Noir
• Film Noir
• Thank you tommydan55
• Gyan Mukherjee
• Ashok Kumar
• Kismet
• First Indian Blockbuster
• Lost and found formula
• Franz Osten and Josef Wirsching

(INTERVAL (“Aaj Himalay Ki Choti Se” from Kismet)

• Sangram
• Cop father/criminal son formula
• 1930s gangster films

Next time: Manmohan Desai
