FRAME OF REFERENCE : WHETHER IT IS ART OR LITERATURE OR SCIENCE ,I THINK ,THE FRAME OF REFERENCE, APPLIES EVERY WHERE. JUST NOW I SAW A GOOD MOVIE DEALING ASPECTS OF A MIDDLE CLASS FAMILY CONCERNING THE PROBLEMS OF A BENGALI MIDDLE CLASS LIFE AND ISSUES ENCLOSING LIMITED SOCIAL SPHERE. THE PICTURE WAS VERY WELL KNIT AND VERY ARTISTICALLY DEALT AND THE DIRECTOR DESERVE ALL THE CREDIT MAKING THE 'REAL CIRCLE'. YET THE FRAME OF REFERENCE WAS LIMITED WITHIN SOCIAL CULTURAL SPHERE AND WOULD NOT ,PERHAPS INVOLVE THE LIVING UNIT OF PEOPLE ELSE WHERE OF OTHER CULTURE..
ON THIS BACK -GROUND, I WOULD LIKE TO REMEMBER AND MAENTION THE PICTURE 'PATHER PANCHALI' OF BIBHUTI BANDOPADHYAYA AND DIRCTED BY SATYAJIT ROY. hERE THE THEME WAS EVEN OF A MORE REMOTE VILLAGE LIFE OF A POOR BENGALI FAMILY BUT THE THE ESSENCE HAD SUCH WIDE FRAME OF REFERENCE THAT IT ALMOST EMBRACED THE WHOLE SET OF HUMAN EXISTENCE, LIVING AND SOUL-LEVEL THAT THE 'FRAME OF REFERENCE' INVOLVED EVEN ALL LEVEL OF SOCIAL LIVING AND EMOTIONS . THE PICTURE RAN FOR SO MANY YEARS EVEN IN NEWYORK OF U.S.A.
