@pahari75 this was a documentary made by nihlani...thats more like a biographical learning...and mebbe he seemed a lil distant bcos of his sophisticated nature...but thts who he was..and i know for a fact that he was very humble in nature..he made kamu mukherjee a part of his cast and later his crew just bcos he turned up one day on his door,knocked and pleaded for a role.

His eyes. His voice. His charisma. He is enormous. Holiness !!

@MyAmitr

Satyajit Ray was about 6 feet 5-6 feet six, about 1m 95 cm. A towering figure both physically and mentally. 

[MyAmitr]

Sayajit Ray was not only a great director or writer but he was really a GENTLEMAN.

So well spoken,clear in words ,great observer and creative man. He was 6'2"

tall,knew only bengali and english and was a CHAIN SMOKER

[RamasamyArumugam1927]

Thank you for sharing !

[pahari75]

Ray was certainly an erudite and a well spoken person.

He was also perhaps the best Indian filmmaker of all time and the only one perhaps who could be compared with stalwarts of world Cinema.

Having said that, he was more of a filmmaker's filmmaker rather than a filmmaker whose films could be enjoyed by people of all sensibilities, like Kubrick or Allen films.

Also, from this interview, he does not come across as a very humble person and seemed bit inaccessible/distant too.

This last shot did two things

1. It dawned upon me, that Satyajit Ray could atleast grin at times. When he says "Life pitched against death...irony" etc

2. I liked Shyam Benegal for the first time for the closing shot.

Thanks Mr. Benegal, Thanks uploader.
