La piedra filosofal

This is one of the films Ray make after having heartbreak of 'Aparajito''s bombing in box office. This is not only dark comedy, but a true comedy too. The lead, Tulsi Chakraborty was one of the best actors Bengal has ever seen and neglected. His acting is so well and, let us say, delicious to watch. And the second great thing in this movie [yes, we can call it a movie] is editing. I almost forget about the assistant's role. His meeting with the police inspector scene is one of those which I like to rewind and watch.
