Just by coincidence, in recent weeks I saw both Avan oru Sarithram and Komal Swaminathan's Anal Kaatru. Both of them are Gandhians debate Naxalites movies, no prizes for guessing who wins the debate but there are some good lines for both sides. The masses get one or two lines in Anal Kaatru, the women revolutionaries are pretty token in both.

Anyway, it got me daydreaming about politically correct movies. There was a low-budget movie called Ilakkanam a few years ago which boasted that it was purely in Tamil (no English or Sanskrit), about a Periyarite newspaper writer with feminist leanings (that he gets to teach feminism to his wife is another story). It was actually not bad, hero worshipping of course but interesting to watch.
