British independent movie released in 1999 about a Pakistani father and the British woman he marries and their lives and their family's life in the 1970's. Check out the IMDB for the details on who wrote it, etc. While managing to be very funny at times, it's also a quite moving tale about the workings of a family seperated by race and custom. Tolerence for your children also plays a big role in the movie as the father attempt to arrange traditional Pakistani marriages for his sons and alienates them one by one in the process.

Also happens to be the last movie I watched with my recently ex-girlfriend, but that's neither here nor there.
