Review of Aparajito (1956) by Jake R — 02 Jun 2008
Ray's exploration of the beauty of life shifts in this film from a general concept onto a particular individual, the young boy Apu. Here his life proves to become increasingly challenging but he grows into his own with a new thirst for knowledge and to make something of himself.
Though not without heart-wrenching tragedy, 'Aparajito' is nonethless a sublime sequel to 'Pather Panchali' and is replete with all the cool music, beautiful cinematography and warm humanism of the first film.
