I saw 'Manorama - six feet under' recently, and I must say, it was far better than I had expected. The style is slightly influenced by Chinatown, to which the director pays a short tribute by showing a scene from Chinatown itself, ironically with Polansky (The Director of Chinatown) in a cameo appearance.
There are only a few characters in the film and the actors have done complete justice to their respective roles. The movie stretches a bit longer than one might have liked, but still manages to hold the attention of the audience throughout. The plot is the good old classic detective mystery molded to suit the Rajasthan backdrop. The story has hardly any loopholes and has well sketched out characters in varied shades of Grey. There are enough twists and turns, a must for any detective story, and thankfully, some are quite unpredictable.
On the whole a movie definitely worth watching.
