Summary: If you are the original Cinema Paradiso kid, you are going to love Siddharth Chowdhury. For his hero, who announces Anthony Gonsalves style, "My name is Ritwik Ray" is that quintessential of celluloid buffs who not only dream in black and white, but who also act out their lives in short movie style riffs which pay homage to all the cinema greats.

For Godard, of course.
