Dilbert, eventhugh our point of views differ, we still try to hold on to that point which we think is the point that is deserved to be pointed out, isn't it ?

Taking the lines that you took for calling Laagan an experimental movie, is not its genre : epic/period, but the fact that it has cricket in it. In that case, we look into the genre sport, which is a rarity in Indian Film Industry (IFI). Ofcoarse in Lagaan the villagers are briefed about cricket and its rules, thats where the Heorine role comes into picture. Now, why not polo or "coconut-tree-climbing", I am not there to give a say. Thats entirely the film makers choice and I have clearly mentioned that they have scored high there, making the viewers forgot these kind of tickling thoughts. Films are lies told is a very true manner.

Your desperate ways to prove Laagan as an experiental film was summerised by me as "clash" that happened during Independence. If you have anything technical to say about the movie, please come forward, rather than repeating the whole story of Laagan once again. And bringing in Hell and Heaven does not help either. I am sincerely here to put forward the Film Theories that I have learnt and would like to learn from other hubbers too (trust me there are several discussion those which are helping me), and not to erase anyones 'Happy-saturday' from the 'Enjoy-Calender', just as the way you are trying to project.

Again, while talking about Laagan I never mentioned any Hollywood Movies. While trying to give my take on experimental movies, I did give 2 Tamil movies and a movie from south Indian Director. That does not end there and to clearly make it a better-undestanding, I took some Hollywood films. If this proceeding is not clear, sorry to say I cannot change the way that I have learnt to present things to an in-uniform audience.

And again we are miles apart in our POV. There is no good movie / bad movie. There are only "Movies I like" / "Movies I don't like". And my choice of movies is nil, as I am as open and non-partial in watching "a movie". Sorry to deny your recomendation on that.

So, I respect your point, and I think I have made myself clear with mine too.
