Yes the process of making this film is over. I don\’t intend to question your analysis on the finished product.

But the process of filmmaking for dibakar banerjee is far from over, it continues to evolve till he makes his last film. And my response was to your questioning of his choice of using a digital camera to make this film.

And in the context of ‘that process’ , every choice that he makes cannot be subject to ‘rationality’. That would be nothing but limiting creativity.

I believe that a film is also a function of where and when it is made & released. And in that context, i think this choice of his is actually playing a part in the unraveling of the mystery of digital format.

The hypothesis doesn’t make any sense in this context. When a painter paints as you describe, there is no evidence or artifact of a final creation that we can study – and therefore, to interrupt him in the process and point out his flaws to him doesn’t make any sense. But LSD is a finished creation, a filmic artifact that already exists – and is not in the process of being created – in that context, a different set of questions can be and should be raised. In that context, we cannot let Banerjee keep filming. It is not a process. The process is done and over with, in the context of a single film.

now can u really say he shouldnt have used a certain color, cos it meant something else, or how is he justified in painting it this way or that way. i dont think so. Let him paint. Its a process.

no doubt Dibakar is a tallented director but LSD not a great film
