I was a high school sophomore in the fall of 1960. On Yom Kippur, I saw the Apu Trilogy, watching all three films back to back. It was a life changing experience. I have never forgotten those films and was worried that if I saw them again, I wouldn’t have the same reaction. I was wrong. I am viewing them now and find them to be even more emotionally brilliant than when I first saw them 55 years ago. The Carnegie Cinema holds a special place in my heart and memory.
