Rockford

You will like this movie if u were a naughty boy in your teen ages.You will like it because it is a movie about children's,but it is not a childish movie!The director has brilliantly showed us the funny,adventures,naughty,and a little bit erotic events of a bunch of 14 to 16s.In most movies about this age,we can see that,they are child!They don't know nothing!They cannot love a girl,they don't have attraction to kiss and sex!We all have seen these age so naive in most movies.But in this movie they are properly judged.They smokes,they rags juniors,they learn to masturbate!They also take risks for their own girl.So..all I have to say is..it is the perfect movie for the grown ups.Watcha these movie and compare it with your early ages!Enjoy!I sure you will!!

Nagesh Kukunoor has presented one of the most wonderful, simple and realistic portrayals of pubescent kids growing up in a convent and dealing with their life, their world on their terms. A fantastic script that has been competently directed and crisply edited, Rockford had me smiling the throughout the film. Kukunoor deals with the issues of 12-13-14 year olds with such seriousness and sincerety that you appreciate his respect for the audience's intelligence. All of the child actors in the film are extremely natural and portray themsevles as aspriring adults that you can relate to (having been there, done that) rather than some cliched caricatures. The protagonists struggle with his self-esteem, his self-image; the influence of his mentor on his life and his victorious struggle with his demons (literally speaking) was funny, moving and most definitely brilliant.9.5/10.

Nagesh Kukunoor has done an excellent job of taking most people like me back to their childhood and into their school days which at the time appeared tedious and boring but in reality were the most magical days of our lives.

The movie is relatively short, very well made and directed. Everyone's acted well and its quite simplistic yet brilliant depiction of an All - boy school.

One of the Rarest Film which shows the Life of Boarding school in India. I have studied in Boarding school and after watching this film i just Miss Those GOLDEN days. Who all have seen it would agree. The One special Teacher we have crush on and the One Sports Sir who inspire us to be good and Tough. Awesome Film. After watching this film You tend to revisit your OLD school Pictures and all the Boarding school things You have and Remember the IMPORTANCE of the Same. Brilliant Direction story and Screen Play. Great SONG too by K.K. The Film if re-released shall do really good Business and Would be inspiring in many ways.

Just need a Blu-ray or DVD copy of it

I decided to watch this film for two basic reasons;1)Nagesh Kukunoor & 2)because I too study in a boarding school of India. This film shows the reality of a boarding life which has never ever been shown on- screen. This is precisely what happens in an Indian Boarding school, obviously somethings may vary but this is more or less precise.And if you too happen to study in one, this film will revive all the old memories, incidences, stupidness,silliness, failures and successes. Though it does not touch each and every aspect of a boarding life but still it's a must see.

My personal favorite parts are what the lead experiences in the starting of his life there, because that what happens to most of the students.
