"THE MOST IMPORTANT REVIVAL OF THE YEAR! Go to worship the near-religious restoration and lose yourself in three very different masterpieces."
– David Edelstein, New York Magazine


"ALL THE EXPLOSIONS OF A BLOCKBUSTER, BUT THEY DETONATE IN THE HEART. If you've never seen an Indian film, clear out your schedule pronto. Wonderstruck and attuned to the smallest details.... Ray's trilogy is quiet and concentrated. THESE FILMS WILL LIFT YOU UP."
– Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out New York


"THE BEST BINGE-VIEWING EXPERIENCE OF THE YEAR! Ray's Apu Trilogy remains singular and unique – one of the great achievements of film history."
– Shelley Farmer, Indiewire


"A gift to movie lovers.... In the scrupulous restoration, the ravishing beauty of Ray's vision shines through."
– Sheri Linden, Los Angeles Times


"What makes it almost unparalleled in cinema is its fusion of poignancy, humor and poetry.... It concerns a poor boy growing up in India nearly a century ago – and yet, miraculously, it concerns us all."
– Andrew Robinson, New York Times


"MOVIES DON'T GET ANY MORE SOUL-STIRRING THAN THE FILMS IN THE APU TRILOGY."
– Sean P. Means, Salt Lake Tribune

– John Powers, Vogue
