Happy Monday!!! It’s snowing! Blech. Well, good thing I didn’t plant wildflowers this weekend like I was thinking I might.
Here is where you ask me anything from “really? Snowing? Seriously?” to “who is Southern Sid?” Just keep swinging back here all week as you think of new questions!
Now, question for you!!! How do you know Southern Sid? What is your big memory of him?
I first saw him in Rang de Basanti and he stood out so strongly in that movie. That whole cast was almost unknown to me, thanks to bringing in off beat art actors and southern stars. Southern Sid had a very important role, being Bhagat himself, and he carried it off. I didn’t see him in a movie again for years and years, I think the next time might have been Midnight’s Children where he was a lovely breath of fresh air. And then, finally, I started getting in to southern cinema and got to see him in Boys followed by a whole bunch of other roles, so many I can’t remember them all.
In honor of Southern Sid, I should really put in a Rang De song, but it’s so SAD!!! So instead I will do a Boys song.
