The White Tiger
Film / Netflix, 22 Jan
Netflix’s best-looking original movie of the month is this lush adaptation of Aravind Adiga’s Booker Prize winner. A picaresque tale of burning ambition, class struggle and freedom in modern-day Delhi, The White Tiger follows one young man’s journey from poverty to riches – via a run-in with the country’s exploitative and self-obsessed elite. Priyanka Chopra Jonas co-stars in a black comedy that delves into the dark, complex reality of India’s newfound status as a tech-fuelled globalised economy.
