Wissenswertes
Ray once called Charulata his favorite of his own films.

Patzer
when Bhupati shows Amal his weekly newspaper 'The Sentinel', it can be seen that it is published every Saturday and the date shown is 7 April 1879 but actually 7 April 1879 was Monday.

Zitate
Amal: All done with studies, exams, professors, cutting classes.
Charulata: What's left? Foolishness and mischief?
Amal: Poetry. Rhythm. You know, I was thinking.
Charulata: What?
Amal: All of life is like a rhythm. Birth, death. Day - night. Happiness - sorrow. Meeting - parting. Like the waves on the ocean, now rising - now falling. One complements the other.

Alternative Versionen
There is an Italian edition of this film on DVD (Extra Movie in "IL LAMENTO SUL SENTIERO"), re-edited with the contribution of film historian Riccardo Cusin. This version is also available for streaming on some platforms.

The most perfect Ray movie

Charulata is Satyajit Ray's masterpiece. No other movie is so brilliantly subtle, so timeless in quality. Indeed, Ray himself described Charulata as the only flawless movie he had directed.

Like the Apu trilogy, and many other Ray movies, Charulata deals with universal themes. Unlike the Apu trilogy, Charulata is set in an urbane, intellectual setting. This might be a turn off for some foreign viewers. When it was released in India in 1964, it was deemed controversial because of its depiction of an extramarital relationship. Yet no movie Ray made, not even the celebrated Apu trilogy, treats the themes of love, growth and loyalty with as much insight and sensitivity as Charulata.

Every scene in this movie is a gem, there are nuances in every movement, poetry in each look. Richly deserving multiple viewing, Charulata is the most perfect Ray movie.
