La Bore de Bellandore
"Dalí painted one of his most famous pieces, “La Gare de Perpignan”—the Perpignan train station. For the inspiration he found here, he once called Perpignan the center of the universe. “All the great inventions of humanity, all of them, took place at the exact center of the station of Perpignan,” he said.
So, according to Dalí, you could be standing in the spot “where all parts of the Earth converge.” Or you could just be standing in a train station."
I think Salvador Dali waited long enough in the station due to a much delayed train, drank too much wine and started to imagine things.

Why did the taxi end up parking inside the outdoor badminton court?
Because it was an office shuttle.

A very violent king and his favourite bin
'Maharaja' had a well executed storyline and superb screen-play. The visual story-telling style of the director was appealing and so was Vijay Sethupathy's screen presence and muted, understated performance punctuated by bursts of slasher violence.
The movie had scenes of great sensitivity, compassion and unexpected shots of dark humour. It was almost like they could have easily produced 2 movies with the same story -a family-friendly version with some vengeance and some humanity at the end. Another -an R-rated movie for graphic violence retaining the satisfaction of seeing the bad guys getting beaten to pulp and the scenes involving dozen or so severed limbs and heads and various forms of impaling and mutilation on display.
There are quite a number of movies that capture the 'anger and frustration of the middle-aged common man' , it appeals to you in a personal way. But the only difference is the on-screen characters get to vent it out violently, while the rest of us just eat lots of pani pooris or demolish half-plate Tandoori chicken and go to sleep!
