Buddhadeb never learns!!
15 January 2012
This movie like any other Buddhadeb Dasgupta movies is wondering without a plot or story line. Even an aimless movie can be good movie if the execution is perfect. But in this 'art movie' of Buddhadeb, he fails in that department too. Ad nauseating overdose of 'symbolism' (he never abandoned his ambition to create at least one scene like the legendary filmmaker Ray), anachronistic events of rural Bengal, clichés galore and obsession with the nihilism make this movie a mess. If you really like to see good Bengali movies, go for old classics of Ray or Ghatak or for that matter go for the new movies by a few contemporary directors who make good movies without being 'artificial arty'. Buddhadeb, it seems, never learns from the past.
