[lbo-talk] Tribute to Satyajit Ray

[joanna bujes]

I don't know whether Satyajit Ray was the greatest director who ever 
lived...or one of them...

No matter. If you delight in gossip about those you love (and you share 
my high regard for Ray), check out this week's articles about him, on 
the fiftieth anniversary  of the release of Pather Panchali...

If you have never seen his films, there are new prints (thanks to 
Merchant Ivory) and they are available in video. (A million times better 
at the cinema, but such screenings are rare).

I recommend:

-The Apu Trilogy
-Devi
-The Middleman
-Two Sisters

"Charulata" also has many, many devoted admirers.
