India's famed Satajit Ray
continues his dramatic nara
tive of contemporary Indian
life in "Aparajito," which op-
ened yesterday at the Apex

The new film is a sequel to
the directors "Pather PAN
ehali" and the second INSTALL
ment of what is to be a tril-
ogy. "Apara6ito" which trans
lates as THE UnvanquiShed'
continues the story of a boy
growing up in an atmosphere
of transition from the old In
dia to the new.
The details of its telling are
Of a perfect piece with the
poetic simplicity of Rays style
as revealed in the original film.
Out of the western concept of
"teeming India's" life. he has
cut a thin but dramatically re-
Vealing slice of which he has
given the eloquspce Of parable
The Benares area, urban and
rural. is the setting of "Apara-
tito" and the boy, Apu, re-
mains the pictures central fig
ure. Apu reaches youthhood
now. his father has died, and
he is confronted by the dilem-
ma of making his mothers life
happy by staying home or his
own promising by going to the
university in Benares.
He chooses the latter. but
with a full consciousness of its
cost in pain to himself and his
mother. 1t is a decision typify-
ing a climate of sharp social
change and its consequences
are the subject of Director
Rays picture.
AS in "Pather Panchali." Mr.
Ray manages to give the quality
Of an idyll to a narrative whose
essential details are the stuff
of pure realism. This he ac-
complishes by asking his actors
to do a lot of soul searching in
the course of performing the
most commonplace Of acts,
cooking and eating meals. miss
ing trains, and Illuminating on
life while sitting on a sunny
hilltop.
The idiom of "Aparajito" is
one with which western movie
goerS are not yet familiar but
the picture, festival prize win
ner, will be rewarding to those
who like to take their imagina- =

THE PASSING SHOW
Indian Film at Apex;
BoIshoi at PLAYHOUSE
BY JAY CARMODY
Drama Critic of The Star

Its Russianess will have to be
the chief recommendation of
Swan Lake" third film in the
cultural exchange program
which is now at the Playhouse
Theater.
Otherwise. the film is an at
tempt to fuse two art forms
that are not necessarily ire
concilable but can look as if
they are. Swan Lake" falls into
the latter category with its
effect Of transforming the ma
terials of a fairy tale into a
documentary movie.
This is not the fault of its
dancing principals, the brilliant
Maya Plisetskaya and Nicolai
Fedeyechev, but rather that of
the films director, 2. Tulubyeva.
He is a f1lmmaker palpably try
ing to think creatively and sue
ceeding, at least to western
eyes, in thinking bumblingly.
Tulubyeva's concept of the
filmed Swan Lake" is that of
total performance, involving
not merely the performance on
the Bolshoi'S great stage, but
the actions of the working
crew behind the scenes and
the reactions of the audience
out front. His cameras, OBJ
viously numbering several, are
concerned with too many diff
1erent things to do full justice
TO any one, and most especially
Bolshoi'S we'll schooled dancers.
The reviewer who has read
much. and seen none of Boil
shoi on its home stage. finds
himself more engrossed in its
production scale than i'm
pressed by its dancing frag-
ments. With state money, Rus
sian ballet can not only be
staged with extravaganza but
excess. Nothing is left to the
imagination of the spectator,
not even the wires that carry
the symbolic swans across the
stage.
Clearly, however. Russian
audiences do not mind this
literalness even in the panto-
mining of fairy tale. The
expression on the dozens of
faces to which the cameras are
