Satyajit Ray's Charulata, adapted from Rabindranath Tagore's novella Nastanirh, follows a wealthy, bored wife in 1870s Calcutta whose husband, consumed by his political newspaper, invites his young cousin Amal to keep her company. Madhabi Mukherjee and Soumitra Chatterjee carry a love triangle that never goes where a Western film would take it. Critics call it a landmark, and Ray counted it among his favorites; the question here is what three Westerners might be missing, and whether the film's stillness is the point.

The Bollywood Cinema Club's Chris Stachiw, the Doctor of Podcasting, and Adam Long (Movie Geeks United) and Otto Bruno (author of The Barney Miller Files) talk a love triangle that resolves itself like adults, Fellini, Bergman and Rohmer as points of comparison, Soumitra Chatterjee's effortless charisma, the old woman against the new woman, Amal's romantic dream of England, and whether a near-silent opening is Ray making the audience as bored as Charu.
