He tries to ape (word used advisedly) the Man. Except for <I>Dahan</I> and <I>Shubho Muhurat</I>, his films are poor. Some, like <I>Oshukh</I> and <I>Ontormahal</I>, are puke-worthy.<BR/><BR/><I>Doshor</I> could have been very good, indeed IS very good in parts. Jai, I feel Prosenjit put in a very good performance <I>given his limitations</I>. Konkona of course sets her own standards. The Porno draws out some good performances, but to what end? What was the point of that third thread, about the unconnected couple and their <I>intu-pintu</I> at Raichok every weekend? (I hope it was every weekend, I would hate to think ANYbody could stay at Raichok for six effing weeks!)<BR/><BR/>And yes, the depiction of sex is bathetic. Also, notice how this guy ALWAYS has at least one scene in every film shot in a loo or showing some bodily emission? Kinky (read gross).<BR/><BR/>GreatBong, was it you?<BR/><BR/>J.A.P.J.

Rituparno, whose name my Kaku translates as Seasonally (Ritu) Obscene (Porno), uses swear words (Shubho Mohorot) and apparently unending cot-creaking (Ontormohol), but mostly as gimmicks. Or so it appears because of their absolute lack of raison d'etre in there. Ok, not an absolute lack of it. They are only marginally required.<BR/><BR/>And the movie in question shows Arindam (?), the widower, working on a hooker, and the whole motion is so absurd that one of my friends conjectured that somebody outside the frame must have been pushing his bums to create such an improbable copulatory movement.<BR/><BR/>Unnecessary sex, but what the heck...itz new! I am dying to see some artistically filmed sex sequence in any Bangla, or for that matter any Indian, movie. I loved Utsab as a kid though!<BR/><BR/>And btw Jai, why is there so li'l sex in ur blog? Reads great, but kinda disembodied, and somewhat like the proverbial ghost in the machine.

But apart from couple of documentaries, I have seen <I>all</I> of Ray's films (few of them many times over).<BR/><BR/>Btw, from what I hear, Bengali cinema is getting bolder everyday.

Don't know if you've seen <I>Shubho Muhurat</I>, but I've seen few films that are as celeverly nuanced and detailed. Another point of similarity -- the leavening with humour.<BR/><BR/>And you are hereby divested of your honour as honorary Bong because of that completely uncalled for dig at Bong sex lives.
