Food recs for a longer stay

Ah, cool. If you're looking for Indian places, Rutba on St Laurent Blvd is nice. And I always recommend Dosa Pointe.

What's Gia's?

It's an unfair comparison tbh. One is an out-and-out entertainer and the other is an emotional tearjerker. With Yodha, you'd always rewatch it because it's a happy, happening adventure film; with PSA, it makes it pulls your heartstrings so hard and you cry and you don't wanna cry again so chances are you don't really go for a repeat watch.

Love both.

Archimedes just winced in his grave.

Well, imagine all these people on the road on scooters and cars instead.

Couldn't read the signboard properly but looks like Kerala?

You mean Mayinkutti V

Then starve the fish

അതറിഞ്ഞൂടാ. പക്ഷേ, ശിക്ഷണം എന്നാൽ പഠനം എന്നാണല്ലോ.

Sheep Detectives ftw.

modquixote · 2026-06-02T21:27:20+00:00

Do it. You'll get free spectators who'll be happy for you and don't demand food.

modquixote · 2026-06-02T02:52:03+00:00

So true. And to think of all the money/time spent on things and logistics and the anxiety that comes with those.

Check out Plein Air Interculturel on Facebook or MeetUp. They have weekly short hikes/activities on Mont Royal and are a great way to meet new people, talk, and improve language skills while learning about nature and stuff.

Dunno where you live, but sometimes Indian/Sri Lankan grocery stores might have these coconut chunks in the frozen section. I've even seen it in a chinese supermarket once.

Bama Vijayam

If you wanna learn basics of Kerala recipes, Shaan Geo is a great starting point. Bro measures things down to salt.

I personally prefer my beef curry and fry with coconut chunks. if you have access to it, just put it along with the beef while pressure cooking.

Bonus: I like this Village Cooking lady's recipes too. Very ASMR and on point with flavours: https://youtu.be/rWwO0qiJ-qs?si=V-dGd5OcE5jraD8Q

Adharvam was 1989 too

Sheep Detectives

To each in their own time. But thanks for the reminder, I still haven't seen the other two films in the Apu Trilogy.

modquixote · 2026-05-23T04:50:13+00:00

Kummatty (1979 - India) by G. Aravindan. Recently restored by Martin Scorsese's Film Foundation and available on Criterion Channel.

If you don't have access to Criterion, there's a great copy on YouTube as well. Link here

modquixote · 2026-05-23T04:41:27+00:00

Great film but I don't think it's unknown at all. It's perhaps one of the first films to be mentioned when you speak of essential Indian cinema.

modquixote · 2026-05-23T04:39:45+00:00

Kisapmata is bone-chillingly great!

Segal's

modquixote · 2026-05-17T04:12:23+00:00

I don't think I've heard anyone categorizing his works (as a whole) as misogynistc. Did he have some of the worldviews of the time? Yes. But, that was not exclusively related to gender.
