Mera Naam Joker Blu Ray Original 4-Hour Uncut Version

Throughout Raj Kapoor's career and Padmini Ramachandran's career, they have both striven to show their artfulness, their oddity, their beauteous visages, or some combination of the above. I am quite close with Bollywood and really what happened in Mera Naam Joker is the coming together of two artists who have shared the stagelights over the span of 30 years. They are well acquainted with eachother, in fact they were great friends. So for them, in Mera Naam Joker it was all fun. This is as well as an explication in Chaplin format of diplomacy.... ooops! I gave it away. However, to hear that it is an excellent movie from a French man, and not expect more from the film, I pupu that. hehehehhehe LOL.

Apparently not a success when it first came out (too sad, too serious) this is the film where Raj Kapoor perhaps gives most of himself. I do not think it is 'one of history's best movies' but it is an extremely good film. It is he story of a boy who has only a clown-doll to remember his father by and who, despite his mother's opposition, determines to follow in his father's footsteps and himself become a clown. The film is notable for the many changes of mood and tempo reflecting the different periods of the central character's life, each marked by the gift of the clown-doll to a woman he loves (and loses). Raj Kapoor gives a virtuoso performance as the Chaplinesque clown but the lad who plays the character in his early years is also excellent.

Finally the actual 4 hour version in pristine quality.Good job with the transfer bu the distributor,Shemaroo.The initial kissing scene between Ryabinkina and Raj Kapoor has chopped butbthe later one at the airport is intact.Not sure why but that is a small issue.Padmini's dance sequence are to awed at as well.The dance dramas are so opulent.Definitely a jem that is being appreciated time and again.

Typical RK product! Was actually entertaining but lacked finesse and quality, compared to his old gems.

This product was delivered very quickly by the seller. This is a movie that I had wanted to see for a long, long time and I was very glad to find it at Amazon. The movie is excellent. The story was very moving and I felt that the actors were superb. This is an old classic and I highly recommend it.

The movie is really old and it is a sad movie but that is not what I dislike most. What I dislike most is the portrayal of a woman's breast and not only as a short thing and then moving on but for a prolonged time as a dramatic element.

love this movie if u like old bollywood movie fan

Great movie, plays fine, very happy!

recv'd quick and as advertised. thank you

Raj Kapoor's great classic movie Blue ray disc video and audio print quality is superb

A film with no peer, this is truly individualistic filmmaking. The running time on the back cover is about an hour and a half short btw! It says 2 and a half hours but is more like three and a half! Nevermind, though, because the story will grip you and you just don't notice the time go by. What you do notice is a great film with lots of narrative and character depth. If you don't laugh and at least have a tear in your eye once or twice, check your pulse!

Bought this as a bit of nostalgia for a friend to watch. Absolutely loved it.

So many scenes are deleted. i have seen the movie on cinema hall and the DVD, though a good one, is missing many scenes.
