V for vendetta is one of my all time favourite movie and I remember almost every scene in the movie. The main antagonist in the movie, The High Chancellor Adam Sutler, played by John Hurt with a typical french beard, was characterized as a deeply religious man, spouting hatred and "Fear" was his main weapon in his rise to power...
Recently I was reading about Bal Thackeray and came across one of the picture of him with a french beard and only one face came to my mind immediately...
that of Adam Sutler...
I know that the movie is loosely based on a comic... I was just wondering if there are more similarities between Adam Sutler and Bal Thackeray other than the french beard...
Great movie though...

Good observation Man !!
Impressive !
As a mumbaiite, you can tell a lot about the similarities ;) ... thanks btw...
Adam Sutler did terrorize his subjects all through the movie. But, his true-self comes out he was about to be killed - bent on his knees and begging/crying for his life. As Joker says in "The Dark Knight", a man's true face often gets exhibited moments before he dies. As far as the similarity in this blog goes, I am going to stop short on comparing it to BT :)
The other character tat comes to my mind is the nea-nazi skinhead writer in the movie American history X... they never do anything.. but only instigate others to..
