Watch Aparajito

Satyajit Ray's first film: a boy and his sister in a Bengal village, and a train through the kash field.

Apu marries a stranger when her groom fails to arrive, and the trilogy closes on his son.

A lonely wife in 1879 Calcutta and her husband's cousin; Satyajit Ray's own favourite.

Truffaut's own childhood as Antoine Doinel, ending with the freeze frame on the beach.

Benjamin, Mrs Robinson and the bus at the end, to Simon and Garfunkel.

Three chapters in the life of a boy growing up black and gay in Miami.

Shot with the same cast over twelve years, so the boy actually grows up on screen.

A Sacramento senior year, and a mother-daughter argument that never quite ends.
