Bit to Boss is a sweet but slapdash effort



Bit too Boss tragically enough isn't that film, but it does touch upon the way a large percentage of our vicarious video-visiting viewer ship enjoys watching couples encapsulated in heart-shaped boxes and slow-motion twirls set 'artfully' to Gazebo Ka Hoi Din.

And yet, behind the bluing facade and the chart-paper palette and the PowerPoint transitions, there lies a peculiarly emotional connect. One might not personally applaud the pasticcio aesthetics, but there is an inherent sincerity to the process, and even - especially - to the clumsiness of said process. Even the most cringe worthy wedding video will moisten at least a few eyes, bring forth some gargantuan grins.

As is bound to happen, our ideographic hero falls in love with a girl above his station. This is hard to explain, since the said girl - played by Amrita Pataki - has absolutely no redeeming features, a shrill and annoying woman who keeps spurning the hero till he leaves the small town where he is wedding-king and goes out in the world to win a fortune and make his point.
