Review of Pather Panchali (1955) by Gene F — 02 Sep 2008
The film is certainly a masterpiece. The film is overwhelmingly real and the key element in the movie is the maintenance of this realism. The characters are so true to the ethnic rural-sixties Indian existence that one is compelled to wonder if the film was captured through surveillance cameras.
Possibly the best film ever made about childhood.
A song for a long road ahead.
