The The Namesake 720p Movies
the namesake is an interesting case in which nair and harold & kumar share similar themes but very different approaches. the film is a character study and a feel-good, wistful romance, but without the snarky, gross-out humor we got from harold & kumar. and yet, despite its soft-focus, while-we’re-watching-it tone, the film feels like a more successful, earnest re-imagining of the hilarious sitcom, and that is something i have not been able to come to terms with.
in this review, i am not going to be rating films on whether they are good or bad or do they succeed or fail in their aims. what i will be doing is talking about the films influences on me and my life. so, in that vein, the namesake has had a huge impact on my life and i have loved it ever since i was in high school. it has inspired me to pursue many of the things i do now and it has made me want to watch, write and act in a more bengali way than i ever have. i’m no expert on bengali culture and politics and history, but the namesake has been a gateway for me to learn about my heritage, and i am proud to say that i am proudly and eternally a bengali.
overall, the namesake is a fantastic and unique film. penn’s performance is spot-on, and it is the best adaptation of a lahiri novel i have seen in a long time. the film is not without its faults, though, mainly in the writing and pacing. the film is sometimes slow and a bit awkward, and it is not as polished as it could have been. i am not sure why penn had to play this role; the role and the character are perfectly fine without him. i get what nair was going for in the adaptation, but the results are less than stellar. the film makes me want to read the book, though, and i would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys quirky, unconventional love stories.
This book is hard to summarize because it’s hard to say what The Namesake is, or maybe, like the movie, I can’t. The Namesake, for all its praise, isnt what I’d call compelling. Aside from the occasional funny anecdote, mostly routine, and the tender scene at the end of the movie — a scene from an already over-short novel — I never really found The Namesake to be that special. One person might love it, another find it barely tolerable. As I read this book, my roommate sometimes read a different page.
Even the experience of the first line of the book — one can choose to read it aloud or silently, so The Namesake is at least a bit of a “work of the imagination” — is somewhat set in stone. I have no choice: I must read it aloud, and if I find myself stopping in the middle of a paragraph to look up from the page, it will be exactly 1.20 PM.
The Namesake is packed with wonderful performances. Kal Penn, who plays Gogol, so exquisitely captures the wonder of someone who has been exposed to so many new things at such a young age. He can hop on a plane to India and understand the culture and speak the language, but he still has an innocence in him. He can go home after graduating and be welcomed with open arms by his mother, even if he does live several miles from her, and he can still live with a family that has waited for him to return for ages. We see this playful side of Gogol throughout the movie. His friends are human, but all of them are out to impress. He will never be intimidated by bullies and will never be jealous of his friends. Penn does a great job of conveying this without going overboard.
