PATHER PANCHALI, APARAJITO, THE WORLD OF APU (1956, 1958, 1960)
In his Apu trilogy, Satyajit Ray teaches us what we often forget; what it is to be human. He does this with a cinematic effortlessness, reminiscent of David Lean. Ray's camera follows Apu through his journey from boyhood to manhood. It is a simple life, but it is one filled with hardship and pathos. At the end, we feel that like Apu, we've grown as well.
