  Commentary:  Under construction.
    Each film in this collection will get a separate write-up and Actor Table at a later date. Suffice it to say that this is a collection of the last three films Satyajit Ray made, at the end of a long, varied and stunning career in the arts. Although I've seen several of Ray's films and own some of them, I have never seen these three. Because his purposefulness is unusual in the medium and his voice is unique, I am really looking forward to viewing these films as a representation of his End-of-Life film statement.
    More, much more, later.
