Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the film Pather Panchali, directed by Satyajit Ray.

The thread gives a summary of the film. It discusses the Neorealist and New Wave aspects of the film. It compares the film to some other films. It discusses the relationships of the siblings in the film. It also discusses characters I identified with in the film. And it discusses the backstory of the orchard in the film.

I saw this film at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema's Sloan's Lake theater in Denver, Colorado.
