  • Satyajit's Bhooter Raja
    postScriptum: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Literary Studies Online – Open Access – Peer Reviewed ISSN: 2456-7507 postscriptum.co.in Volume II Number i (January 2017) Nag, Sourav K. “Decolonising the Eerie: ...” pp. 41-50 Decolonising the Eerie: Satyajit’s Bhooter Raja (the King of Ghosts) in Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne (1969) Sourav Kumar Nag Assistant Professor in English, Onda Thana Mahavidyalaya, Bankura The author is an assistant professor of English at Onda Thana Mahavidyalaya. He has published research articles in various national and international journals. His preferred literary areas include African literature, Literary Theory and Indian English Literature. At present, he is working on his PhD on Ngugi Wa Thiong’o. Abstract This paper is a critical investigation of the socio-political situation of the Indianised spectral king (Bhooter Raja) in Satyajit Ray’s Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne (1969) and also of Ray’s handling of the marginalised in the movie. The movie is read as an allegory of postcolonial struggle told from a regional perspective. Ray’s portrayal of the Bhooter Raja (The king of ghosts) is typically Indianised. He deliberately deviates from the colonial tradition of Gothic fiction and customised Upendrakishore’s tale as a postcolonial narrative. This paper focuses on Ray’s vision of regional postcolonialism. Keywords ghost, eerie, postcolonial, decolonisation, subaltern Nag, S. K. Decolonising the Eerie ... 42 I cannot help being nostalgic sitting on my desk to write on Satyajit Ray‟s adaptation of Goopy Gayne Bagha Bayne (1969). I remember how I gaped to watch the movie the first time on Doordarsan. Not being acquainted with Bhooter Raja (The king of ghosts) before, I got startled to see the shiny black shadow with flashing electric bulbs around and hearing his reverberated nasal chant of three blessings.

  • Beyond the World of Apu: the Films of Satyajit Ray'
    H-Asia Sengupta on Hood, 'Beyond the World of Apu: The Films of Satyajit Ray' Review published on Tuesday, March 24, 2009 John W. Hood. Beyond the World of Apu: The Films of Satyajit Ray. New Delhi: Orient Longman, 2008. xi + 476 pp. $36.95 (paper), ISBN 978-81-250-3510-7. Reviewed by Sakti Sengupta (Asian-American Film Theater) Published on H-Asia (March, 2009) Commissioned by Sumit Guha Indian Neo-realist cinema Satyajit Ray, one of the three Indian cultural icons besides the great sitar player Pandit Ravishankar and the Nobel laureate Rabindra Nath Tagore, is the father of the neorealist movement in Indian cinema. Much has already been written about him and his films. In the West, he is perhaps better known than the literary genius Tagore. The University of California at Santa Cruz and the American Film Institute have published (available on their Web sites) a list of books about him. Popular ones include Portrait of a Director: Satyajit Ray (1971) by Marie Seton and Satyajit Ray, the Inner Eye (1989) by Andrew Robinson. A majority of such writings (with the exception of the one by Chidananda Dasgupta who was not only a film critic but also an occasional filmmaker) are characterized by unequivocal adulation without much critical exploration of his oeuvre and have been written by journalists or scholars of literature or film. What is missing from this long list is a true appreciation of his works with great insights into cinematic questions like we find in Francois Truffaut's homage to Alfred Hitchcock (both cinematic giants) or in Andre Bazin's and Truffaut's bio-critical homage to Orson Welles.

Son père, se réfugiant dans ses ambitions littéraires, laisse sa famille s’enfoncer dans la misère. Apu va alors découvrir le monde, avec ses deuils et ses fêtes, ses joies et ses drames. Sans jamais sombrer dans le désespoir, l’enfance du héros de la Trilogie d’Apu est racontée avec une simplicité émouvante. A la fois contemplatif et réaliste, ce film est un enchantement grâce à la sincérité des comédiens, la splendeur de la photo et la beauté de la musique de Ravi Shankar. Révélation du Festival de Cannes 1956, La Complainte du sentier (Pather Panchali) connut dès sa sortie un succès considérable. Prouvant qu’un autre cinéma, loin des grosses productions hindi, était possible en Inde, le film fit aussi découvrir au monde entier un auteur majeur et désormais incontournable : Satyajit Ray.

  • Satyajit Ray Retrospective Opens Film India
    Ill The Museum of Modern Art 50th Anniversary NO. 39 *o For Immediate Release 5/26/81 COMPLETE SATYAJIT RAY RETROSPECTIVE OPENS FILM INDIA Artist, author, musician, and master filmmaker SATYAJIT RAY will introduce FILM INDIA, the largest and most comprehensive program of Indian cinema ever exhibited in this country. Presented by The Department of Film in conjunction with The Asia Society and the Indo-US Subcommission on Education and Culture, FILM INDIA is designed to broaden American awareness of the long history of Indian cinema as well as of the recent developments in Indian filmmaking. FILM INDIA is structured in three parts. The first section will comprise a retrospective of films (with English subtitles) of the internationally acclaimed director Satyajit Ray, including shorts and features that have not been previously exhibited in this country. Many new 35mm prints of Ray's films are being made specifically for this program, including his most recent feature, THE KINGDOM OF DIAMONDS (1980) and an even later work, PIKOO (1980), a short film. The complete Ray retrospective totals 29 films, June 25 - July 24. Satyajit Ray (Calcutta, 1921) was born into a distinguished Bengali family. After working for some years as an art director in an advertising firm, he completed — against tremendous odds — his first film, PATHER PANCHALI, in 1955. Its premiere at The Museum of Modern Art in May 1955, its acclaim at the 1956 Cannes Film Fest­ ival, and its immediate success throughout Bengal, encouraged Ray and enabled him to become a professional filmmaker. PATHER PANCHALI was followed by two sequels, forming the now famous APU Trilogy.

  • Pather Panchali Satyajit RAY - Inde - 1955
    Cycle « Pour Krishna » 1/3 Pather Panchali Satyajit RAY - Inde - 1955 Fiche technique Scénario : Satyajit Ray d'après le roman Pather Panchali de Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay Directeur de la photo : Subatra Mitra Décors : Bansi Chandragupta Musique : Ravi Shankar Montage : Dulal Dutta Production : Satyajit Ray Distribution : Parafrance films Interprétation : Karuna Bandyopadhyay (Sarbojaya Ray, la mère de Durga et Apu), Kanu Banerjee (Harihar Ray, le père), Uma Das Gupta (Durga Ray), Subir Bannerjee (Apurba « Apu » Ray), Chunibala Devi (Indir, la parente âgée) Durée : 115 min Sortie Inde : 26 août 1955 Prix du document humain, Cannes 1956 Sortie France : 16 mars 1960 Critique et Commentaires […] C'est par les yeux d'Apu, un petit garçon de sept ans, turbulent et sauvage, que nous découvrons les menus faits tour à tour dramatiques et cocasses qui constituent la trame des jours, des saisons, des années. Pather Panchali pourtant n'a rien d'un film d'enfant. C'est une œuvre au contraire puissamment élaborée, dont la pureté, la simplicité, la calme lucidité, sont du domaine de la méditation. Par son sentiment de la nature, nullement romantique mais mystique, par cette poésie virgilienne qui sait si bien rattacher les êtres et les choses à la terre ancestrale, Satyajit Ray se révèle dans Pather Panchali digne du grand Flaherty. Mais dans son évocation du monde indien d'aujourd'hui, évocation où la pudeur de l'expression donne plus de prix encore à ce que peuvent avoir de pathétique certaines images, le réalisateur témoigne de son admiration (admiration à plusieurs reprises publiquement affirmée) pour Vittorio de Sica. Et de ce double courant, contemplatif et réaliste, naît un charme auquel il me semble difficile de résister.

  • (1): Special Issue 100 Years of Indian Cinema the Changing World Of
    1 MediaWatch Volume 4 (1): Special Issue 100 Years of Indian Cinema The Changing World of Satyajit Ray: Reflections on Anthropology and History MICHELANGELO PAGANOPOULOS University of London, UK Abstract The visionary Satyajit Ray (1921-1992) is India’s most famous director. His visual style fused the aesthetics of European realism with evocative symbolic realism, which was based on classic Indian iconography, the aesthetic and narrative principles of rasa, the energies of shakti and shakta, the principles of dharma, and the practice of darsha dena/ darsha lena, all of which he incorporated in a self-reflective way as the means of observing and recording the human condition in a rapidly changing world. This unique amalgam of self-expression expanded over four decades that cover three periods of Bengali history, offering a fictional ethnography of a nation in transition from agricultural, feudal societies to a capitalist economy. His films show the emotional impact of the social, economic, and political changes, on the personal lives of his characters. They expand from the Indian declaration of Independence (1947) and the period of industrialization and secularization of the 1950s and 1960s, to the rise of nationalism and Marxism in the 1970s, followed by the rapid transformation of India in the 1980s. Ray’s films reflect upon the changes in the conscious collective of the society and the time they were produced, while offering a historical record of this transformation of his imagined India, the ‘India’ that I got to know while watching his films; an ‘India’ that I can relate to. The paper highlights an affinity between Ray’s method of film-making with ethnography and amateur anthropology.

  • DETECTIVE FICTION Feluda Is One of Satyajit Ray's Greatest Creations
    DETECTIVE FICTION Feluda is one of Satyajit Ray’s greatest creations but is he too brilliant for the movies? Although Ray’s version of ‘Sonar Kella’ is a fan favourite, ‘Joi Baba Felunath’ points to the perils of adaptation. Nandini Ramnath Jun 07, 2021 · 10:30 am Soumitra Chatterjee in Joi Baba Felunath (1979) | RD Bansal Productions Satyajit Ray’s novel The Mystery of the Elephant God begins with a peek into its creator’s precise mind. The private detective Feluda berates the hyperbole-prone novelist Jatayu for describing the Durga puja celebrations in Varanasi as “spectacular”. The word is banal and doesn’t explain why the event is important, Feluda tells Jatayu. When Jatayu elaborates, “I still remember my eyes and ears being dazzled by what I saw,” Feluda finally approves. This description appeals to the senses, he says. Ray adapted the book into a movie in 1979. Joi Baba Felunath was Ray’s second Feluda adaptation after Sonar Kella. In both films, the same set of actors played the casually sexy sleuth, his loyal cousin and sidekick Topshe and their hilarious pulp fiction writer friend Jatayu. Giving Soumitra Chatterjee, Siddhartha Chatterjee and Santosh Dutta company in Joi Baba Felunath was Utpal Dutt as the sinister Maganlal Meghraj. The Bengali-language movie, which is being streamed on Mubi India, is entertaining enough. Yet, it underscores the conundrum of a brilliant director unable to keep up with his brilliant writing. Ray cut out the plot points that were possibly difficult to film and changed the ending, weakening the mystery in the process.
