Description

8vo, spiraled proofs with corrections. 420pp. Satyajit Ray s films include the Apu trilogy, The Music Room , Charulata , Days and Nights in the Forest , The Chess Players and The Stranger . He also made comedies, musicals, detective films and documentaries. Beginning with the classic Pather Panchali in 1955, Ray was an exceptionally versatile artist who won almost every major prize in cinema, including the Oscar for lifetime achievement just before his death in 1992. Akira Kurosawa said of him Not to have seen the cinema of Ray means existing in the world without seeing the sun or the moon . This is a definitive biography of this movie giant, based on extensive interviews with Ray himself, his actors and collaborators, and a deep knowledge of Bengali culture. Revised and updated following Ray s death, the book covers his final films and his artistic legacy and includes a comprehensive bibliography of Ray s writings.
