Movie Info
Indian landowner Biswambhar Roy (Chhabi Biswas) lives in luxury, but his fortune is slowly slipping away. Despite his decreasing funds, Roy insists on maintaining his lavish lifestyle, particularly his ornate music room, which he utilizes as a performance space for an array of accomplished singers, dancers and musicians. Even as Roy continues his financial freefall, he futilely struggles to compete with the concerts put on by his younger neighbor, Mahim Ganguly (Gangapada Basu).

Ray exhibits a complete and enviable control of his camera behind this sumptuous drama that deserves credit even more for its elegant, classic direction and noteworthy formal rigor than for an impeccable narrative about a proud, stubborn man who refuses to become obsolete.

Top class Indian actors, Satyajit Ray's impeccable direction, music and dance intertwine in a tale of moral decay overwhelmed by the heavy weight of material shallowness. Chhabi Biswas deserves full credit as the nobleman that longs for a past that is long gone and wishes everything around him, even family blood, to be destroyed so that his external circumstances can satisfy his perception of reality and his interpretation of past memories for his persona. <i>Jalsaghar</i>comes out todat as a multi-layered masterpiece of self-destruction as a downward spiral. Full review coming someday... 100/100

a raja in his crumbling palace cares for nothing but music as the world moves on without him. a very touching portrait of a man who loses everything, the most beautiful of ray's films i have yet seen, and his first criterion edition! it helps if u like indian music :)
