Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam

Surely a Masterpiece and the Greatest classic in Indian film history with 'Sholay' taking the next rung in this list. Great story, absolutely no holes in the story(very hard to find in the current genre) and perhaps the greatest female acting ever portrayed on the Indian screen, and I am talking about Meena kumari. The scene that really takes off is the part where she charges back at her husband when he calls her 'mad' and scoffs her desire to have children. That scene , every time I see just leaves me shaken and I wonder how can someone put up such an intense performance like that in front of spotboys, cameramen, assistants and other such 20 people, staring at you,huddled in one room, mind blowing stuff..!! Should have been the Oscar nominee for the best foreign film of that year...if the system still existed in India at that time. No other movie, except 'Sholay' comes close to this ever green untouchable.
