Brother he is a Bharat Ratna and a very well deserved... In 68 yrs only 48 people got Bharat Ratna and he is one of then ..he was on stamp of india and many others example..Indians always respect and appreciate talent .. That's why we are discussing him here😉
Scorsese is one of my favourite filmmakers, definitely the greatest living filmmaker right now. To hear his inspiration was Satyajit Ray makes me proud as an Indian, and a film lover.
What the fuck are you talking? What do you mean by 95%? Class 10 of Bengali has pother panchali in syllabus( The full book ) Written by Bibhutibushan . Satyajit Ray is a well known director across globe . He even won Oscar for his work and dedication and acheivements for his craft.
Come on, people like you have started crying just after the SSR death, before that you were not ranting about these things, there were very audience from India who really appreciated good cinema, this fad will too go away. If you are really interested first change yourself rather than pointing fingers to others.
@@bhavykhatri2669 Excuse me ma'am, What should I change about myself? I have always been an ardent admirer of good Cinema and this comment was no way related to the death of SSR. So, please before commenting rudely, kindly try to understand the context.
Satyajit Ray, Mrinal Sen and Ritwik Ghatak , all three have given rise to the new form and art in cinema well before Hollywood. Their contribution is immeasurable.
WTF are you talking about? There was Hollywood from the 1920s buddy. The Indians learnt from them and European masters. They didnt create a new art form.
@@nevertheless123 "European masters!!" ,😆😏 Pretentious much? Can't say much for cinematic art form but all modern-day art forms are rooted in ancient Greek art forms of Drama. Technically, they are the masters of this make-believe world.
To the Indians who dont know Rehman sir is not the first indian to won oscar Satyajit Roy rated among the top 10 greatest movie directors of all time, won lifetime achievement oscar given by academy. All of hollywood knows his name but 70% indians dont know him. Director like christopher nolan praised roys work and scorsese, copolla, speilberg too. Satyajit Roy is not your regular bolly masala director. He is among 3 of the greatest artist india ever produced. One Rabi Tagore (nobel) 2 Satyajit Roy 3 A R rehman.

Rittik Ghatak and Debaki Kumar Bose are far greater filmmakers than Ray, but the capitalist culture seems to encash in only what would bring them profit and attention. It's time that Ghatak and Bose are given their dues, and have their real worth evaluated. Indians, more so the Bengalis themselves are the most reluctant in assessing the real worth of Ghatak and Bose and realize that Ray was not as talented as them, and proclaim the same before the world. Ray could never capture the finer interplay or the intimacy of human emotions as effectively as the two of them, which could be attributed to his bourgeois outlook and upbringing. His films lack that punch of disillusionment or hopelessness that permeated every frame of the films Ghatak made, or the philanthropic touch telltale of human suffering and social discrimination in Bose's films. Ray is a bit too much overrated and blown up by Indians as well as the foreign media. For an outsider to know the real India, it is imperative to watch the films of Ghatak and Bose, not the ones with celluloid sophistication of Ray. This is the lacuna of mainstream media. Once somebody has in some way gained a recognition, they will continue to blow his or her trumpet for as long as the world exists, until somebody with equal establishment succeeds in convincing them with something different.
@@Phnx282 ghatak and bose great directors but you dont need to say ray was overrated for it. His way of directing was on another level. every directors has their own style and every viewers has their own taste.
@@Phnx282 as a bengali, I have to admit that people don't usually bring up ray and ghatak and bose in the same conversation. but at the same time, they also acknowledge their films to be very foresight med, often to the same magnitude. but then again, that's just from my limited experience. and I do agree on you about the severe under appreciation of ghatak, sen and bose, while still feeling ray to be of the same caliber.
@@Phnx282what ?? there is no one like ray by far the greatest film maker of india stop commenting like fools . i watch ritwik 's work he is great but not even close to ray even mrinal sen is up there ye aapka opinion ho sakta hain par isse ek opinion ki trah hi rehne de aap ye maante h iska matlab ye nhi sabhi ye maante ho.Satyajit ray inspired generations of film makers not only from india from all around the world so his legacy can't be match by anyone.
Gosh! God.. whatsoever no satisfactory to all of you(including whoever liked your comment).. Be happy for it man. No matter what or how little it is.. we being Indians never praised Ray in the first fucking place.. what would you do with "wider audience".
No one is god, everyone is man,and every man is god's creation,part of god,but not god, god is the only source,the supreme energy,who created the whole universe,who maintains the universe,and who will destroy the universe and will be create another one universe,so in our world many more genuis had exist in past,exist in present also and will be exist in future,but this is stupidity to call them God,we should accept them as human beings,and should learn from them,thank you ❤️
I still remember the first time I saw Jalsaghar, his work is indian neorealism with a hinch of Fellini, same level than Kurosawa, Satyajit Ray was among the greatest and most influential of his time

@@Phnx282 Agreed totally. Bose and Ghatak were far superior to Ray. Also we missed out mentioning Mrinal Sen and his master class works depicting the life of impoverished and the struggling class whom most of the other directors always neglected till date.
@@somnathchakravarty3658 Yup, I'm a fan of Sen too, but somehow I feel his craft doesn't have that magic touch or magnetism of Ghatak and Bose, or Kurosawa. I don't mean any disrespect to him. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 He is our pride and forms the great trio of Indian cinema along with Ghatak and Ray. I would like to place him in ranks with Buddhadeb Dashgupta or Purnendu Patri for that matter. They seem at par to me. Actually, Ghatak is in a totally different league altogether. All eight of his films are equally masterpieces and one is no less captivating than the other. One may endlessly wonder while watching his films, that how exceptional and varied they are in structure, elements, form and treatment of plot, albeit remaining connected with the same repeating theme of the pain of Bengal partition that tormented the film maker throughout his short luminous lifespan. I fall in love afresh everytime I watch those films and they never get old, albeit being so limited in number ( just eight 😥). That shows the true mastery of a gem of a film maker - one that doesn't need to impress with a good many number of films like Ray, but leaves his audience bedazzled with whatever limited crop he has produced. Tbh, Ray's later works in color are plain bogus, with perhaps the only exception of Agontuk. He should've stopped after Goopi Bagha Trilogy, I feel. At least Sen more or less kept up the standard of his works till Aamar Bhubon (although in no way comparable to Bhubon Som).
When it comes to admiring "films" for it's being made. Scorsese always came ahead to praise the film for it's worthy and for the cinema and for the good films. That's why he is called MASTER SCORSESE and second I'd see this in Spaghetti guy.. Quintessential Tarantino.
Yeah, they both other than being Masters in Filmmaking are also very much love the whole concept of watching movies. Tarantino every year even 'releases' his favorite films of that year.
Yes, unline Steven Thief Spielberg who plagirised Ray's dream project and then moved along Martin Scorcese in Ray's Oscar campaign to show how good and noble Steven is.
@@malehachowdhury5614 but still Spielberg is great... All his POV shots are lit. His contributions are immense. ET is not just what he made. Schindler's List, Jaws, Jurassic Park. All these gold were by Spielberg.

I just watched The Stranger by Satyajit Ray, and it is one of the best films I’ve seen this year. Watched some of the Apu Trilogy years ago, but need to watch properly. Anyway though Mr Ray was an Indian, his films resonate with Bangladeshi Bengalis too :)
Of course. The only difference is most Bangladeshis are Muslim. Obviously , Kolkata Bengalis are much more Bengali since they participate in traditional Bengali music and dance. However, being Bengali is the same. Watching the Apu Trilogy reminded me so much of myself .
Really feel proud to listen this from mr Martin Scorsese sir.. I am from the native land of satyajit ray,the legendary film maker and my mother tongue is Bengali..
It's not only American Film-makers but filmmakers from all over the world praise the work of Sir Satyajit Ray. He was a director who brought stories in the form of films, stories which influenced the actual 'India' his films like Mahanagar, Panther Panchali, Arnayer Din ratri, The Strangers the stories of these films are very artistic in nature. Watch World Cinema rather than Mainstream and Commercial films like bollywood and hollywood. Explore more indian cinema, there's a lot of amazing regional films from Gujrat, Maharashtra, Kerala, Chennai, Hydrebad, West bengal. I have met many Foregin filmmakers who are also inspired by ray's work and I feel so proud, but at the same time I feel sad because many Indians don't know about films like these.
If ever anyone ever think these master pieces are art films, these films are so simple, humane, realistic and deep. Respect to every director who believed in magic!
It’s a pity, Indians outside Bengal don’t know much about him! I’m sure there are many in the Hindi film industry who have not watched a single Ray movie!

I am fortunate enough that I have watched Pathar Panchali in the theatre at one of the film festivals in Delhi, India. I cherish that memory everytime I talk about cinema.
A Bengali, but feels even better as an Indian. Ray is a different story altogether. Incredible versatile, perfectionist, story teller. Meaning of true film-making, no Indian director comes even close as of yet.

Satyajit Ray was one of the greatest filmmakers of all time,, he had the potential to inspire even the mighty Hollywood filmmakers...His classic films should be preserved and watched
Buddhadeb Dasgupta, Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Adoor Gopalakrishnan, Balu Mahendra ,K.S.Sethumadhavan Mani Ratnam etc... Are also pillars of Indian Cinema (edited: Girish Karnad also director and poet recipient of Gyanpith Award)
And this is coming from a guy who is seen as a master and is respected by all of Hollywood. most Indian people don't even realize what a level of artist Mr. Ray was. I urge all to watch the cinema that he made. and truly understand what he meant.

Pather Panchali Was an interesting movie done by Satyajit Ray but when it comes to film analysis we also need to understand the story was from famous Bengali writer Bibhutibhushan bandhopadhyay,the music ( hindustani classical ) sitar late great Ravi Shankar and Sarod Pandit Ali Akbar Khan. Director Mr ray have done good research before making the movie. Since he was from advertising background and wrote the script very well. We also respect the cinematographer who rightly presented the western industrialisation on indian agricultural soil in the form of locomotive railway when the Apu and Durga running and watching it from the kash phool bushes.thanks
I first saw Satyajit Ray’s films at a festival of his work. I now have some restoration films that I see on my 50” tv screen. What I miss is the big screen to get full stunning effect of the b&w shadows and suspense of a face filling the entire theatre. Folks are losing why Ray’s film were important.
Unfortunately, most Indians don't recognize the genius of Satyajit Ray, and those who know him only know him for his films, but he was a prolific writer as well and his literary skills were as impressive as him filmmaking skills.

Satyajit ray, Hritwik ghatak and mrinal sen was three pillars of Bengali film industry and a major part of Indian cinema. These directors cinemas were shown with ingmar bargmen, akira kurosawa. Akira Kurosawa once said that, "Not to have seen the cinema of Ray means existing in the world without seeing the sun or the moon." But such a shame that Indians aren't even watching ray , ghatak or sen s cinemas. And which is even more shocking is that after the death of Rituporno ghosh (another great bengali director) Bengali cinemas situation turned so bad. The film industry which once ruled not only indian cinema but also international cinema now is making only cheap commercial cinemas.

Guys watch that cinema pather panchali.. especially camera angle and camera focus which shoot at the time of 1955.. shoot by subrata mishra. Legendary cameraman
SOHAM BOSE can you name them i bet there is not may be good directors like adoor, mani rathnam, rithwikh gatakh, raj kumar hirani and all but we only have Satyajith and his movies as legendary. Have any objections if you have then it means you don't have any idea about world cinema.
SOHAM BOSE no the greatest is Satyajith ray rest are just good and in India we have only very few great movies and surprisingly they were all made by Satyajith ray and this is the most authentic reply that you can trust and bye
SOHAM BOSE man will you please stop this conversation if you want the proof contact me on Facebook i have tried not only their movies you dumb fella i have tried all great works i just tried rithwikh gatakh films because i was looking something good as an Indian. Now as a critic i don't need any others opinion because i know what is world standard for films and for you who is just a general indian audience and want some more indian movies as great ok then you consider them while i will go with the universal standard.
SOHAM BOSE man actually you are dumb ass because you can't understand what a critic is trying to express who said here about indian standard if there is only indian standard then every movie released here would be great and you itself admited that cinema is a universal art and there is no special country thatcan specify a standard taking cinema from different country will make a standard just see apu trilogy is a great film and every one knows its one of the greatest film ever made. it influenced every nation and then comes india, India is still making dumb masala film for stupid audience like you. Even tge Iranian cinema is evolved because of Satyajith ray indirectly do you know that. And now you can see when each and every country is producing good films except India. I don't know whether you can understand a thing from your attitude but i will try to explain and rest is your business. Let take x is just a normal sized fellow but when a tall (y) person cones near him we call him as a tall person and when another guy comes with the same hight of y it doesn't make any difference so when 1000s join we call x is short so the hight of y is the standard or don't you know the meaning of standard yet you lol. And then comes apu trilogy which is definitely a great film and match the standard of greatest films and the movies of rithwikh gahatakh and some other will just comprises with the standard below great. And the remaining movies like bahubali and all are just waste and Indian film industry has the most number of such waste This is the most simplest way to explain something still if you can't understand anything just meet some psych artist for better treatment and i know that iam smart in certain area including this. so it was you who was trying to play smart you dumbass now man just leave me alone i don't have much time to waste with stupids. And you will be one if you can't understand what i mean yet.
For great movies we need great audience which we don't have, according to Ray's himself India has large unsophisticated backward audience who love mediocre cinema.
What Humility. I wonder when will the rest of India acknowledge, leaving behind their ego, the immense contribution of Bengalis in bringing India to the world stage in every sphere, when the rest of India was just trying to crawl.
Wow actually it's your illiterate ass that's making a fool of himself... Many people in India contributed widely to cinema but your ass seems sour and egoistic... It's you who is degrading the name of the great Satyajeet Ray... Ray didn't think such pointless things while making a movie... Who the fuck are you to comment about superiority of Bengalis or any other ethnic group for that matter, what the fuck have you achieved? Art and cinema becomes great once illiterate people like you stop comparing ethnicity and nationality with it.... Ever heard of V. Shantaram? He was a great Marathi filmmaker, he was also a legend... And there are many more examples from many parts of India but you don't see people getting sour about it, do you? People like you are leeches to this great country of ours
Even as a Bengali , I am ashamed to be able to speak the same language as you . How can you bring caste and religion here ? You are very pathetic person , sir . Change your way of thinking and just appreciate the the great people based on their work and not because of their caste and religion . As Mr. Satyajit Ray said " we have a very backward audience" . This line fits very well for you , sir .
Lol what does "bengalis" have to do with this? This has to do with a good filmmaker who just happened to be Bengali. But more importantly he happened to be an indian.
Bengali films of the 50s and 60s were comparable to any classic Italian and French films, and superior to any Indian movies ever made. Thanks to the British, we had the Bengal Rennaisance. And the upper class Bengalis had an unique worldly and Europeanized culture at the time.

True
Rittik Ghatak and Debaki Kumar Bose are far greater filmmakers than Ray, but the capitalist culture seems to encash in only what would bring them profit and attention. It's time that Ghatak and Bose are given their dues, and have their real worth evaluated.
Indians, more so the Bengalis themselves are the most reluctant in assessing the real worth of Ghatak and Bose and realize that Ray was not as talented as them, and proclaim the same before the world. Ray could never capture the finer interplay or the intimacy of human emotions as effectively as the two of them, which could be attributed to his bourgeois outlook and upbringing. His films lack that punch of disillusionment or hopelessness that permeated every frame of the films Ghatak made, or the philanthropic touch telltale of human suffering and social discrimination in Bose's films.
Ray is a bit too much overrated and blown up by Indians as well as the foreign media. For an outsider to know the real India, it is imperative to watch the films of Ghatak and Bose, not the ones with celluloid sophistication of Ray. This is the lacuna of mainstream media. Once somebody has in some way gained a recognition, they will continue to blow his or her trumpet for as long as the world exists, until somebody with equal establishment succeeds in convincing them with something different.

@@Phnx282 Agreed totally. Bose and Ghatak were far superior to Ray. Also we missed out mentioning Mrinal Sen and his master class works depicting the life of impoverished and the struggling class whom most of the other directors always neglected till date.
@@somnathchakravarty3658 Yup, I'm a fan of Sen too, but somehow I feel his craft doesn't have that magic touch or magnetism of Ghatak and Bose, or Kurosawa. I don't mean any disrespect to him. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 He is our pride and forms the great trio of Indian cinema along with Ghatak and Ray. I would like to place him in ranks with Buddhadeb Dashgupta or Purnendu Patri for that matter. They seem at par to me. Actually, Ghatak is in a totally different league altogether. All eight of his films are equally masterpieces and one is no less captivating than the other. One may endlessly wonder while watching his films, that how exceptional and varied they are in structure, elements, form and treatment of plot, albeit remaining connected with the same repeating theme of the pain of Bengal partition that tormented the film maker throughout his short luminous lifespan. I fall in love afresh everytime I watch those films and they never get old, albeit being so limited in number ( just eight 😥). That shows the true mastery of a gem of a film maker - one that doesn't need to impress with a good many number of films like Ray, but leaves his audience bedazzled with whatever limited crop he has produced. Tbh, Ray's later works in color are plain bogus, with perhaps the only exception of Agontuk. He should've stopped after Goopi Bagha Trilogy, I feel. At least Sen more or less kept up the standard of his works till Aamar Bhubon (although in no way comparable to Bhubon Som).
If only Ray could see how cherished his films are by the world... He would have been very happy
Scorsese stays honoring the legends.
When it comes to admiring "films" for it's being made. Scorsese always came ahead to praise the film for it's worthy and for the cinema and for the good films. That's why he is called MASTER SCORSESE and second I'd see this in Spaghetti guy.. Quintessential Tarantino.
Yeah, they both other than being Masters in Filmmaking are also very much love the whole concept of watching movies. Tarantino every year even 'releases' his favorite films of that year.
Yes, unline Steven Thief Spielberg who plagirised Ray's dream project and then moved along Martin Scorcese in Ray's Oscar campaign to show how good and noble Steven is.

I just watched The Stranger by Satyajit Ray, and it is one of the best films I’ve seen this year. Watched some of the Apu Trilogy years ago, but need to watch properly. Anyway though Mr Ray was an Indian, his films resonate with Bangladeshi Bengalis too :)

He was a bengali!!!!
Agantuk
@@zubayergillarkyckling7832 that's what she said. He was Indian bengali. The west of the border.
Of course. The only difference is most Bangladeshis are Muslim. Obviously , Kolkata Bengalis are much more Bengali since they participate in traditional Bengali music and dance. However, being Bengali is the same. Watching the Apu Trilogy reminded me so much of myself .
Really feel proud to listen this from mr Martin Scorsese sir.. I am from the native land of satyajit ray,the legendary film maker and my mother tongue is Bengali..
It's not only American Film-makers but filmmakers from all over the world praise the work of Sir Satyajit Ray. He was a director who brought stories in the form of films, stories which influenced the actual 'India' his films like Mahanagar, Panther Panchali, Arnayer Din ratri, The Strangers the stories of these films are very artistic in nature.
Watch World Cinema rather than Mainstream and Commercial films like bollywood and hollywood. Explore more indian cinema, there's a lot of amazing regional films from Gujrat, Maharashtra, Kerala, Chennai, Hydrebad, West bengal. I have met many Foregin filmmakers who are also inspired by ray's work and I feel so proud, but at the same time I feel sad because many Indians don't know about films like these.
I am a Huge Scorsese fan , after watching this , what should I say to you man ???!!! , I am speechless , Will love you for lifetime 💎💖
If ever anyone ever think these master pieces are art films, these films are so simple, humane, realistic and deep. Respect to every director who believed in magic!
An inspiration to the ages -Satyajit Ray!!👏👏
It’s a pity, Indians outside Bengal don’t know much about him! I’m sure there are many in the Hindi film industry who have not watched a single Ray movie!

Satyajit ray, Hritwik ghatak and mrinal sen was three pillars of Bengali film industry and a major part of Indian cinema. These directors cinemas were shown with ingmar bargmen, akira kurosawa. Akira Kurosawa once said that, "Not to have seen the cinema of Ray means existing in the world without seeing the sun or the moon." But such a shame that Indians aren't even watching ray , ghatak or sen s cinemas. And which is even more shocking is that after the death of Rituporno ghosh (another great bengali director) Bengali cinemas situation turned so bad. The film industry which once ruled not only indian cinema but also international cinema now is making only cheap commercial cinemas.

The best thing about USA is that they respect the talents whether it be in NASA,The I companies or any sector.They respect talent,that's why America is greatest country.
Proud of you সত্যজিৎ রায় sir
Guys watch that cinema pather panchali.. especially camera angle and camera focus which shoot at the time of 1955.. shoot by subrata mishra. Legendary cameraman
Unfortunately only ray was able to make great films in india.
SOHAM BOSE can you name them i bet there is not may be good directors like adoor, mani rathnam, rithwikh gatakh, raj kumar hirani and all but we only have Satyajith and his movies as legendary. Have any objections if you have then it means you don't have any idea about world cinema.
SOHAM BOSE no the greatest is Satyajith ray rest are just good and in India we have only very few great movies and surprisingly they were all made by Satyajith ray and this is the most authentic reply that you can trust and bye
SOHAM BOSE man will you please stop this conversation if you want the proof contact me on Facebook i have tried not only their movies you dumb fella i have tried all great works i just tried rithwikh gatakh films because i was looking something good as an Indian. Now as a critic i don't need any others opinion because i know what is world standard for films and for you who is just a general indian audience and want some more indian movies as great ok then you consider them while i will go with the universal standard.
SOHAM BOSE man actually you are dumb ass because you can't understand what a critic is trying to express who said here about indian standard if there is only indian standard then every movie released here would be great and you itself admited that cinema is a universal art and there is no special country thatcan specify a standard taking cinema from different country will make a standard just see apu trilogy is a great film and every one knows its one of the greatest film ever made. it influenced every nation and then comes india, India is still making dumb masala film for stupid audience like you. Even tge Iranian cinema is evolved because of Satyajith ray indirectly do you know that. And now you can see when each and every country is producing good films except India. I don't know whether you can understand a thing from your attitude but i will try to explain and rest is your business. Let take x is just a normal sized fellow but when a tall (y) person cones near him we call him as a tall person and when another guy comes with the same hight of y it doesn't make any difference so when 1000s join we call x is short so the hight of y is the standard or don't you know the meaning of standard yet you lol. And then comes apu trilogy which is definitely a great film and match the standard of greatest films and the movies of rithwikh gahatakh and some other will just comprises with the standard below great. And the remaining movies like bahubali and all are just waste and Indian film industry has the most number of such waste This is the most simplest way to explain something still if you can't understand anything just meet some psych artist for better treatment and i know that iam smart in certain area including this. so it was you who was trying to play smart you dumbass now man just leave me alone i don't have much time to waste with stupids. And you will be one if you can't understand what i mean yet.
For great movies we need great audience which we don't have, according to Ray's himself India has large unsophisticated backward audience who love mediocre cinema.
Love from India sir
Ray was the pride of Bengal
Satyajit Ray means Indian cinema.
I hope he takes another reincarnation of himself again. The GOD of cinema making
He will
That moments.... That's very moment u feel to be proud that u born in the country where SATYAJIT RAY belong
Apu trilogys that one dialogue is my all time favorite .....
Martin Scorsese, Christopher Nolan and a lot other directors are inspired by him
What Humility. I wonder when will the rest of India acknowledge, leaving behind their ego, the immense contribution of Bengalis in bringing India to the world stage in every sphere, when the rest of India was just trying to crawl.
That is really well said my friend. Inlog saala jalta hai humse.
Wow actually it's your illiterate ass that's making a fool of himself... Many people in India contributed widely to cinema but your ass seems sour and egoistic... It's you who is degrading the name of the great Satyajeet Ray... Ray didn't think such pointless things while making a movie... Who the fuck are you to comment about superiority of Bengalis or any other ethnic group for that matter, what the fuck have you achieved? Art and cinema becomes great once illiterate people like you stop comparing ethnicity and nationality with it.... Ever heard of V. Shantaram? He was a great Marathi filmmaker, he was also a legend... And there are many more examples from many parts of India but you don't see people getting sour about it, do you? People like you are leeches to this great country of ours
Even as a Bengali , I am ashamed to be able to speak the same language as you . How can you bring caste and religion here ?
You are very pathetic person , sir . Change your way of thinking and just appreciate the the great people based on their work and not because of their caste and religion .
As Mr. Satyajit Ray said " we have a very backward audience" . This line fits very well for you , sir .
Not bengalis, one Indian. If you're not inclusive, you know the rest
Lol what does "bengalis" have to do with this? This has to do with a good filmmaker who just happened to be Bengali. But more importantly he happened to be an indian.
Satyajit Raj is the GOAT of Indian cinema
Ray is our pride
He's nikola tesla of cinematography
I typed in Pather Panchali film essay and this came up
Bengali films of the 50s and 60s were comparable to any classic Italian and French films, and superior to any Indian movies ever made. Thanks to the British, we had the Bengal Rennaisance. And the upper class Bengalis had an unique worldly and Europeanized culture at the time.
Bengali here!❤️
Too many people know Ray but don't watch him
Rittik Ghatak and Debaki Kumar Bose are far greater filmmakers than Ray, but the capitalist culture seems to encash in only what would bring them profit and attention. It's time that Ghatak and Bose are given their dues, and have their real worth evaluated.
Indians, more so the Bengalis themselves are the most reluctant in assessing the real worth of Ghatak and Bose and realize that Ray was not as talented as them, and proclaim the same before the world. Ray could never capture the finer interplay or the intimacy of human emotions as effectively as the two of them, which could be attributed to his bourgeois outlook and upbringing. His films lack that punch of disillusionment or hopelessness that permeated every frame of the films Ghatak made, or the philanthropic touch telltale of human suffering and social discrimination in Bose's films.
Ray is a bit too much overrated and blown up by Indians as well as the foreign media. For an outsider to know the real India, it is imperative to watch the films of Ghatak and Bose, not the ones with celluloid sophistication of Ray. This is the lacuna of mainstream media. Once somebody has in some way gained a recognition, they will continue to blow his or her trumpet for as long as the world exists, until somebody with equal establishment succeeds in convincing them with something different.
I am very much saddened Scorsese Sir that you didn't vote for "Pather Panchali" on "Sight and Sound" 😡😪.
Its his personal choice there are other great movies too
@Soumik Dey the other guy never said it was simply just a good movie.
atleast scorsese choose "the river" which inspired ray to make movies
Satyajit ray and akira Kurosawa shape the modern era

Only if us Indians n our industry did half of the stuff or learn something from his work.. we wud been at par with the Western film industry rather than being what bollywood had become..
It's not Sholay but Sonar Kella for me . 😅❤🇮🇳🙋🏻♂️
THANKS SATYAJIT RAY ❤️
Meanwhile atleast 80% Indians are wondering what Pather Panchali was.
Am watching this on satyajith ray 100th birth anniversary
Can’t confirm but heard that Spielberg stole the story of ET from Satyajit Ray’s script which he sent to him.
কোথায় ছিলাম ,কোথায় এসেছি !
Guru Dutt and Satyajit Ray . ...
Apu Trilogy 💥
The thing is like the world knows Satyajith Ray, Except the people of India!
Mr. Satyajit Ray is the Legend of cinema. Watched Monihara, Pather Panchali, Apur Sansar amd many of other great movies. Love from Punjab ❤.
Martin Scorsese usually make crime movies I don't know how he got inspired from pathar panchali
Pathar panchali is very good movie btw
