Pather Panchali Review

With Bollywood and Indian movies in general not personally really bringing formality upon  my arsenal. Being employed at a Movie Theatre for almost around 3 years informed me with how popular and how entertaining these films really are. Pather Panchali,  Satyajit Ray was a film that I had to look both sides on. The positive note of this film is a very minimalistic type of movie. Not only the fact with just it’s sets, costumes, or camera work, but with it’s story too. It’s being very simplistic, which in this case is a real good thing. The performances in the film were rather interesting and you could tell the work behind the scenes took so much effort. This movie also reflects off the ideas of how people really struggled back then. Living off a family is just barely keeping going. A man, his wife, and their two children live on a thriving level, trying not to starve. It’s most definitely a powerful movie to watch. In general, if I had no back knowledge of these types of films, I probably would not really be a fan of it. But since I have a little familiarity with the culture and background, it was something that I enjoyed
