Mahanagar (1963)
worth watching
Mahanagar is a masterpiece of Satyajit Ray. It shows how good a movie can be and how great he is. I feel proud of being bengali as I can understand this movie and feel sorry for those who will never be able to taste this excellent work of Satyajit Ray.
It shows how a woman or only a woman can stand against injustice, sacrifice her crying need for a colleague's insult. It is a lesson for us to learn.
The film is directed with all his excellence by Satyajit Ray. Every sceen of the movie shown with subtle care. I failed to find out a single scene as irrelevant or I never felt that there can be a better presentation of any scene shown in the movie. It clearly portraits a poverty ridden bengali family which still have some morale. The movie is really worth watching
