Charulata , one of Ray’s undoubted masterpieces... Charulata, the sensitive but bored wife of a westernized newspaper publisher finds herself drawn sexually to her husband’s young cousin who comes to stay and shares her taste for literature. The film moves with beautiful precision from flirtation and almost childish competitiveness to near tragedy amid a lovingly reconstructed period setting.
