Gopal Krishna

1929

This Puranic tale about the antics of Krishna as a child. The conflict between Krishna and the evil Kamsa, king of Mathura, was to be seen as representing the conflict between the Indian people and the British rulers. The playful family film's highlight, apparently, is when the loin cloth of a little boy playing on the swing with Krishna came lose and revealed his penis.
