Is the Apu trilogy good for real?
- mrwh 4y agoIt's been many years since I last saw it, but I remember the first film in particular as being wonderful, yes. Hopeful and sad and luminously shot.

- abruzzi 4y agoyes, but 'Distant Thunder' is my favorite from the same director.
- leephillips 4y agoIt’s a classic series of Bengali films, widely adored.
- AlbertCory 4y agoI'm very proud to say we did show that in the Google Cinema Club, and in fact we had a professor from UCSC who specializes in Ray films come and show it and answer questions. He knew Ray personally.
- shmde 4y agoIf you wanna go by metrics, all movies in the trilogy are rated above 4.0 with more than 50,000 votes combined on letterboxd. Also they got beautiful remasters from criterion films.
