monsoon wedding

Probably the only Indian film made in India that I watched growing up. Heard some good reviews before. After watching it, I don't understand why this movie is so well received. The storyline is blunt and the acting is exaggerated. The love in it all happens between people of the right family and even relatives. All the young men and women are just matched. It's too unreal. The only thing worth watching is the Indian street scenes and folk customs in the film. I like their wedding song and dance scenes very much, but this is not enough to support a movie. Rather than a main story that takes place within the walls of the middle class, I prefer to watch the occasional flash of lively dusty avenues, people and vehicles of all kinds passing by. When the scenery film is good.
Ah? It also won the top prize at the Venice Film Festival. Did I miss anything?

    【India】It is surprising that this movie, which is very marketable and full of emotional comedy without any special technique, won the grand prize. But what's the downside when you think about it? The rich discussions on immigration, identity and the long-term wedding culture of India, the conflict between old and new ideas, the reconciliation and joy of everyone walking in the rain, and the feelings and contradictions of the characters, big and small, were completed in less than two hours. Anything. This is Mira's private letter to her family and a sincere tribute to Indian culture.
