Obituary in The Guardian: http://www.theguardian.com/film/2009/may/12/tapan-sinha-obituary-indian-filmmaker and a rather scattershot overview of his films: http://www.boloji.com/index.cfm?md=Content&sd=Articles&ArticleID=1500 Seems he was "Bollywood" in that he incorporated the popular songs and stars of the day into his movies, but he tended to have more substance and social commentary than most, without being as politically stringent as Ghatak or Sen, and without the brilliance of Ray. The one film of his I've seen (and I plan to see a few more), DESOLATE BEACH, is awfully nice. Edited by Karl, Aug 7 2014, 01:24 AM.
