NAYAK - The Hero (1966. 117 minutes): Satyajit Ray seamlessly integrates rueful flashbacks with surreal dream sequences in this sly, satiric, psychologically rich meditation on art, fame and regret. A brash matinee idol (Uttam Kumar) on the brink of his first flop is sent reeling down the path of self-examination when interviewed by a journalist (Sharmila Tagore) while on route to receive an award. In Bengali with English subtitles. Film Forum Coronado is held in the Winn Room at Coronado Public Library, on the first and third Wednesdays, with a brief introduction before the film and a discussion afterward, led by Ralph DeLauro.
