Featured review
Footpath(1953)
This is one of Dilip Kumar's most sophisticated film which oddly failed to find favour with the critics.The black market is presented in a very subtle way and the story-line is impressive.Dilip Kumar's acting is a tour-de-force,especially the ending confession at the police station with the ticking of the wall-clock!Ramesh Thapur,Anwar Hussain and Meena Kumari also give good performances.The song 'sham-e-gham ki kassam'memorable.The script and direction are splendid.It is a mystery why Zia Sarhadi did not made more films.Variations on this theme have been countless but none can match Sarhadi's subtlety.Altogether a gem of a movie.A real film noir of the Indian Screen.
