You are welcome to join me for dinner at the Thai Restaurant two doors down from the theater.
I hope to get there between 6 and 630pm. I'll be coming straight from work so I'll be subject to the needs of my job and the horrors of Tampa traffic.

I'm not making reservations, but there was plenty of available seating last Monday

"Before the Rains" begins at 7:30.
I will meet those that didn't come to dinner in the lobby. In case the lobby is too crowded, I'll be at the top of the stairway that over looks the lobby.

BEFORE THE RAINS

"Director Santosh Sivan imparts a vastness and a sense of wonder to the film, qualities reminiscent of a Thomas Cole painting: They remind you why the Brits thought conquering India was a good idea in the first place." - Julia Wallace, Village Voice

"The film is well-acted, a broad colonial allegory, and... visually gorgeous." - John Anderson, Newsday

Forbidden romance, empire, and culture clash all lie at the heart of this drama. In 1930s India, Britain's reign is beginning to lose its hold on the region. In the midst of this turmoil, a British man (Linus Roache) embarks on an affair with an Indian woman (Nandita Das), while one of the men in the village (Rahul Bose) tries to quell his inner struggle. Santosh Sivan (Asoka) directs this film that is presented by Merchant Ivory, the renowned force behind Howard's End and The Remains of The Day.

Writer: Cathy Rabin
Director: Santosh Sivan
Cast: Linus Roach, Nandita Das, Rahul Bose, Jennifer Ehle
Rated PG-13 for violent content and a scene of sexuality/
2008/1:38/drama

Who attended?

    • “ great Thai place and the movie was really goos as well. Tampa Theater is such a nice little place. ”
    • “ Filmed in India and visually stunning. I enjoyed the company and the Thai food before the movie! ”
    • Lee
      “ The four nice ladies and I had a nice time. Thai Corner's Wonton soup was awesome. The movie was different in that it did not have a real hero. A very un-Hollywood thing. Downtown Tampa has a peacefu vibe on a summer night. ”
    • “ good movie, nice people ”
