I can differentiate movies into neither Mainstream nor Parallel.

We should have more celebrated directors in the current times, to make us proud. And the directors of commercial Bangla cinema could also benefit from taking a leaf or two from the earlier makers like Debaki Bose, Sudhir Mukherjee, Pinaki Mukherjee, Ajay Kar, Salil Dutta etc.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18400883603951236888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-5728328005876456242008-04-07T07:09:00.000-07:002008-04-07T07:09:00.000-07:00hi...........thanx for updating......hi...........<BR/>thanx for updating......Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12164002865564040472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-3995098649089691752008-04-07T01:46:00.000-07:002008-04-07T01:46:00.000-07:00Awesome listing.

Maybe you should have included some more films from the golden years of Bangla Cinema, like the ones from the New Theatres stable. But, I understand, there were too many films from the parallel or art cinema movement to be given the much justified consideration for the qualitative experimentation that was ushered by them.Rajashree Basuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15240973987663491811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-61925988585084547002008-04-01T08:53:00.000-07:002008-04-01T08:53:00.000-07:00A fabulous listing.............. really dude, I ag...A fabulous listing.............. really dude, I agree with you - Bangla Cinema and info on it is so hard to find even on the net.

This very blogpost is just a lay-person's attempt to enlist the Best of Bangla Cinema (only 100 entries have been included alongwith year of release/making)- obviously with a personal bias - and I would like to apologise to all readers who would otherwise be barraging me missives to not having included some and preposterously included some others. This is at best a raw form of the said attempt, please consider it so. I haven't maintained any order or chronology or rating - purists please excuse my having clubbed the mainstream entries with parallel cinema. Most of them are films that I have grown up watching, while others have helped me grow as a viewer. I am too fond of movies. And hence this is my humble tribute to Bangla Cinema and its makers (I plan to include all the makers' names soon).</B>Anindo Senhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797937746390651769noreply@blogger.com
