"This first installment in Satyajit Ray’s Apu Trilogy is an incredibly moving, heartfelt story that takes place in the countryside of Bengal in the 1920s. The stark images captured my heart from my first viewing."

"I first saw Ray’s films at the Lincoln Plaza in college and they left a deep, indelible mark. It’s a masterwork that I return to over and over again."

"I can’t think of a film as human and humane as this one. About as beautiful as it gets. Makes me weepy every time. Incredible score by Ravi Shankar"
