Suno Baranari - Bengali - Uttam Kumar, Supriya Choudhury

Suno Baranari (or Suno Baro Nari), 1960 Director: Ajoy Kar Music: Robin Chatterjee Lyrics: Gauri Prasanna Mazumder Playback: Shyamal Mitra, Hemanta Mukherjee, Sumitra Sen Cast: Uttam Kumar, Supriya Choudhury (or SupriyaDevi), Chhabi Biswas English subtitles included. There's one song not subbed for some reason, and another unsubbed line. A community do-gooder (Uttam Kumar) is contracted to escort a wealthy man's daughter (Supriya Choudhury) to another city to meet with the man to whom she is engaged. The two don't get along at all and he's glad to be rid of her after a difficult train ride. But both think about the other for days. They meet again when another train ride is arranged and the mood lightens and she falls head over heels for him while he resists the same feelings. He has a secret, you see, that prevents him from being open to falling in love. Watch it to see two master actors at the top of their game. I loved it. I had never seen a film with Supriya Choudhury before, and hope to track down more as she's wonderful. She does her acting with her eyes, a twitch of her mouth, a subtle change of expression. Also, there's some first class work being done by the director, cinematographer (both are Ajoy Kar), and the lighting technicians. We see a lot of close ups of our two stars and they are purposely shown with only half a face lit. Be sure to pay attention to what is being lit in each scene. These are masters at work. Much of the film takes place either on trains or at train stations. There's a lot of background noise and if you have trouble making out the dialog, turn on the subtitles. Here's a playlist for the three songs in the film:    • Suno Bara Nari - Bengali - All Songs   TOOLS USED FOR THE FILM: AviSynth for the video editing Audacity for the audio work.
