What’s so great about Bengali cinema anyway


What’s so great about Bengali cinema? Anyway. It’s all very copybook, studious and done with an inward grunt of intensity. Agreed, there are moments when the sense of borderline suggestiveness can drive you crazy enough given privacy and good breezy weather, but by then you are just as likely to wake up in a Merchant-Ivory production. Perfect for afternoons on clerical holidays and idle moments counting the number of thick black spectacle frames you can spot.
