অনিলা স্মরণে : কমলকুমার মজুমদার

-

 সীমিত সংখ্যক চরিত্রের সমাবেশ আর মঞ্চ উপযোগী সুখদায়ক সংলাপের একটা প্রবণতা দেখা যায় শ্রীকমলকুমারের কথাসাহিত‍্যে।


মা ও মেয়ের এমন প্রেম ও দ্রোহের মিথস্কিয়ার শৈল্পিক প্রণয়ন বাস্তবিকই প্রশংসনীয়।




📘অনিলা স্মরণে
কমলকুমার মজুমদার 
দর্পণ শারদ সংখ‍্যা, ১৯৬৫।

The Circus : Charlie Chaplin

-

  Two things that had made Charlie Chaplin’s The Circus [1928] very inimitable and grand. First the narrative style and second keeping the film silent in the advent of talkies. Another aspect that is very unusual and still mysterious to me as I have not finished my reading of Chaplin’s Autobiography. It is infamous that The Circus is the only Chaplin’s film which he didn’t mention in his autobiography. It should be researched well resourcefully whether it is that he went through the great turmoil in his private life during its production or it is that he faced an adversary in the professional settings and took the most risky decision not to go with the flow to uphold the aesthetic excellence and integrity of cinema.   All the erstwhile feature films he followed the identical formula for dramatic structure of love triangle. In The Kid [1921], the woman was abandoned by the artist, Millet shot himself after being refused by Marie in The Woman of Paris [1923] and in his third fea...

La Grande Illusion : Jean Renoir

  The assembly of multi ethnic & religious people in the tumultuous time of great wars; the difficulties of verbal communications in the midst of various languages; the adversity and hardship in the desertion and escapement attempts in the life as a POW; overall, the unilateral suffering and futile purposes of wars are the concerns I have been researching for the literary and artistic documents and references of the situations in the Mesopotamian campaign [1914-1918]. I have already listed some references but I haven’t thought I will come across one of the finest artistic representations that has been expressed well in Jean Renoir’s La Grande Illusion [1937] where I have found all of them in a single cinema. I am instantly enchanted by its pacifist and humanistic attitudes. Very few cinemas showed the unconventional friendship between  Boëldieu [French aviator] & Rauffenstein  [German aviator] like Frantz [German soldier] & Adrien [French soldier] in Frantz [2...

2020 is a very strange time, probably, in this passing century, people from all over the world have been in a long solitude with anxiety from the beginning. On the event of the announcement of Booker prize long list on 28 th July, at midnight in London but in the very early morning in Dhaka, readers from around the world have got startled either before going to sleep or after getting up from the dreams when they have seen “The Booker Dozen” or the list of 13 finest fictions in English from October, 2019 to September, 2020 published in the UK/Ireland. Though it has already made a buzz that US eligibility has pushed the prize from English atmosphere to American milieu, this is the most surprising and versatile long list in the Booker history that more than half (8/13) of them are first appearance in the world of long-fiction, pages started from 192 ( Redhead by the Side of the Road ) to 912 ( The Mirror & the Light ), two of them are completing their decades-long trilogy, two of...
