All over the land they’re bending it like Beckham. Sporting films and videos are as much in fashion as replica shirts. The latest, featuring the life and times of Bobby Moore, has received rave reviews and it seems that if directors want a hit these days, they need to give it a sporting spin.So in all seriousness, I pass on the news that a young London- based Indian director has just shot a film of his own mother making samosas which he likens to the fight sequences in Raging Bull. According to Nilesh Patel, cooking is like a martial art, and he depicts the scenes of his mum rolling and folding the pastry as if they were rounds of boxing. The potato peeling is done to a background of Robert De Niro shadow boxing. I kid you not. “It is a celebration of skill, speed and accuracy but using female palms rather than a male gloved fist,” he says. Called A Love Supreme it lasts nine minutes and may sound like a load of old Bollywood but Patel is hoping Naseem Hamed will back the distribution of his “anti- racist comedy-drama”.
