Omar Ali Khan, a sage of Lollywood’s labyrinthine world, delivers a laugh-out-loud anthology of over 160 Pakistani film reviews in ‘Loose Canons and Dangerous Curves.’ Offering a fresh perspective on Pakistani cinema, this encyclopaedia is a gutsy report of films that have struck a chord with the public psyche, including under-appreciated and overlooked titles.
A must-read for anyone interested in the links between Pakistani politics, popular culture, and society, as reflected through the nation’s most loved yet underrated artistic medium: cinema.
