I have read one of his whodunits (Feluda stories). I have heard my brothers rave over him when I was a teenager. I have read, in a glance, about the man's greatness.
But only today did I actually watch a clip from his critically-acclaimed Pather Panchali (Song of the Road). Of course I have heard of the Apu Trilogy and have always longed to watch them. But coming from a country like Malaysia where access to quality-driven art movies (especially ones from India) is almost impossible, I have not had the luxury thus far. And so you can imagine my elation when I came across the clip below on youtube. What can I say? I have never seen so much in so little in my 39 years of existence...
