Recensione:

Undoubtedly one of India's greatest filmmakers, Ray was an equally good writer and the book is a testament to the fact. Be it the piece on silent films or the piece on his experiences in foreign film festivals, his uniqueness and observatory skills in writing stand out as much as they did in his films. --Soorya Prakash Dec 25, 2014
