Pather Panchali

no matter how many time you've seen it, each and every time it leaves you completely devastated, it breaks your heart into thousand pieces, takes your breath away,leaves you with a heavy heart and tears in your eyes.

Netflix has at long last acquired Grave of the Fireflies; and since it’s creating a fresh wave of utter melancholy, thought about sharing the only 4 films which make me cry (or moist eyed even thinking about them) —

1. Pather Panchali, by Satyajit Ray

2. Grave of the Fireflies, Studio Ghibli

3. Schindler's List, by Steven Spielberg

4. Hachiko: A Dog's Story

Now, share yours. We can be melancholic partners! :-)

(If you're from no.1's hometown/share the mothertongue/ Ray admirer, my additional gratitude. )

Pather Panchali (Satyajit Ray, 1955)

[sohamsenosuke]

To the Maestro who has always made me feel right at home every time I dived into his works,

The modest Genius whose worlds I keep returning to with my grandparents every time I hear the Feluda theme or 'আহা কি আনন্দ আকাশে বাতাসে',

To the Dreamer who inspires me to break out of the comfort zone to do whatever it takes,

To the Artist whose Uniqueness and Versatility leaves me awestruck everytime,

To the Storyteller who sparkles with sensitivity, captures life and frames it to you in scenes that touch your soul,

A simple Happy Birthday would seem insufficient. To discover you is a quest of a lifetime, মহারাজা
