Review of Pather Panchali (1955) by Lynda M — 15 Jan 2009
The story of a child growing to manhood in modern India. His triumphs are small, his tragedies large, but Ray's filmmaking is direct in manner, simple in its means and profound in its impact. It is, as another great master, Akira Kurosawa, said, "the kind of cinema that flows with the serenity and nobility of a big river"â??the river of life as it is ordinarily lived.
