Pather Panchali ("Song of the Road") is a Bengali Coming of Age Story by Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, originally published in India in 1929, during the time of The Raj. The author's first novel, it depicts the life of the impoverished Roy family in rural Bengal, seen through the eyes of youngest child Apu.In the 1950s, it along with its sequel Aparajito became the basis for Satyajit Ray's critically acclaimed trio of films known as The Apu Trilogy. The film version of Aparajito covers Apu's adolescence and education, while series finale Apur Sansar follows Apu as a young adult. | |

Chekhov's Gun: The Roys' neighbors accuse Durga of stealing a valuable necklace, which Durga vehemently denies. While packing to leave Apu finds the necklace, throwing it in the lake to hide the fact that his sister was a liar and thief. | |

Flynning: The sword fight in the Show Within a Show has no choreography to speak of: it's just two actors striking their swords together in a repetitive pattern, alternately high and low. This being a pretty stylized form of theater, it's more an abstraction of fighting than an attempt to make it look real. | |
