Colonial rule gives way to independence...
“Viceroy’s House” takes place in 1947. Lord Mountbatten (Hugh Bonneville, “Downton Abbey”) is sent, along with his wife Edwina (Gillian Anderson, “The X-Files”), to New Delhi to oversee the country’s transition from British rule to independence. Taking up residence in the lavish mansion known as the Viceroy’s House, Mountbatten arrives hoping for a peaceful transfer of power.<br /><br />But ending centuries of colonial rule in a country divided by deep religious and cultural differences proves different, setting off a struggle that threatens to tear India apart. Using the “Upstairs, Downstairs” formula, co-writer/director Gurinder Chadha explores the political and romantic dramas of the government leaders and the house staff, particularly scenes in which the two worlds blend into each other. The film starts with a light tone before turning to melodrama against a time of upheaval and uncertainty.<br /><br />The romantic sub-plot involves Jeet, a Hindu valet (Manish Dayal, “The Hundred Foot Journey”), and Aalia, his Muslim childhood friend and a translator (Huma Qureshi). Om Puri stars as Aalia’s freedom fighter father. Director Chadha focuses on the good intentions of the English leadership in the last few months of British rule, while chronicling India’s political turmoil. At the end of the film, Chadha reveals her family’s personal experience during this period of unrest in India when the borders of India were redrawn to create Pakistan.<br /><br />Bonus materials on the unrated widescreen DVD release include deleted scenes and a trailer.
