It's a Wonderful Afterlife
2010, English. Directed by Gurinder Chadha.
Finding the right man can be murder
Indian mother Mrs Sethi's obsession with marrying off her daughter turns murderous. With jokes that routinely miss the mark and cringeworthy slapstick, this black comedy farce shouldn't work. Somehow, though, it does.
