Anyone seen any satyajit raj movies

[mina]

I was in HMV the other day, i came across three movies by him. Just wondering whether anyone has watched any of his movies as i myself haven't. And if so would you reccommend any of them?
Thanks

All three together? They seem to be quite arty films, i don't think i could watch them one after another, i'll need some time to digest the stories.

rai is a master of film makers.did u know he had an oscar for best forign film!!!!
he is a genius.

hes films are very art house if you like.consentrating on character imagery and srory than special effects and dramatisation.

hes apu trilogy is fantastic. if u like art house movies you will love it.
its about a boy (apu) who grows up .
basic story but the trial and tribulations of this boy is wonderful. excellent direction from a superb visual master. did u know that martin scosse loves his pictures and regdes then as classics.

he is such a perfectionist he didnt shoot fake rain in a rain scene but waited for ti to rain so that he could capture the true romance of the dropletts.

if you want a fun film then go and watch the new release.
i think its called cahsing bollywood.
part of the evening standard film week.
what a bollywood atr house director does it goes to hollywood castes a b listed actor takes him back to india to film a very bollywood film. he has to dance sing and learn to fight indian style. this is a famtastic movie hughllly recommended

This is the last film of Apu trilogy, in which Apu, now a man,stumbles into marriage with girl he never saw before. The unions lead idyllic love, but then tragedy.

I liked this film very much. Soumitra Cahtterjee, Sharmila tagore was superb.
