Life of Pi (2012)
Country: US/TAI/GB
Technical: col 127m
Director: Ang Lee
Cast: Suraj Sharma, Irrfan Khan, Rafe Spall
Synopsis:
An Indian boy is sole survivor of a storm at sea that destroys his family and their floating zoo bound for Canada. Alone in a lifeboat with a Bengal Tiger, he is carried according to the whims of the Pacific currents, his fate uncertain.
Review:
A film whose beauty is beyond contest, proving that even an apparently unfilmable novel is now realisable for the screen. While its philosophy does not quite meet the depths of other Lee works, it is full of the sense of karma often found in his films.
