Movie Trailer – Midnight’s Children

This film is based on the acclaimed novel by Salman Rushdie.  And he wrote the screenplay and narrates, so it should be a great representation of the book.  I saw him on The Daily Show, and he was really interesting.  However …I just don’t care about India.  I know it’s awful, but I just don’t care.  That’s a history that I’ve never studied and am not that curious about.  I’m seen Gandhi, I know the basics, and I guess I’m not excited to know more.  Call me ethnocentric, but my focus is usually on European history and not Asian.  So, if you read the book then you should see the movie.  But I doubt I will.
