Bride & Prejudice

oThEr tExTs...

This text can be compared to several others of a similar nature within recent and past years such as:

‘East is East’, ‘Monsoon Wedding’, ‘Bend it like Beckham’, ‘Goodness Gracious Me’.

The texts that I have considered to use to compare 'Bride & Prejudice' to have been selected based on different aspects of their characteristics.

For example, 'Bend it Like Beckham' is a good comparison to my chosen text as it was directed by Gurinder Chadha too, therefore in certain mannerisms it is similar to the way in which it has been composed when compared to 'Bride & Prejudice'. This includes the likes of media language a considerable amount baring in mind the director and her style.
'East is East' was one of the very first 'British Asian' genre of films of its kind which, marks it as a milestone towards the path that such a genre of films is moving towards. the same can be said for the memorable 'Monsoon Wedding'. This film is able to make an even larger comparison to 'Bride & Prejudice' as it's narrative is reminicent of Chada's remake considering its daughters and marriage theme.
'Goodness Gracious Me' is a text differenciating from the others mentioned above as it was a television series. However, this text has to be regarded as seriously important consdiering its huge television success.
