The River
Director Jean Renoir's entrancing very first color feature--shot on location in India--will be just a visual tour de force. Based on the novel by Rumer Godden, the picture eloquently contrasts the growing pains of three young women with the immutability of this Bengal river around which their everyday lives unfold. Developed by Renoir's subtle comprehension and admiration for its people and India, The River gracefully explores the connections between creation that is perpetual and transitory emotions.
