Distant Thunder Ratings & Reviews
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
The film is delicately, ambiguously beautiful.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A gentle humanist film that informs the world that over five million died of starvation and epidemics in Bengal.
TIME Magazine
Jay Cocks
A tragedy of such magnitude becomes an event abstracted by arithmetic. But Ray's artistry alters the scale. His concentrating on just a few victims of the famine causes such massive loss to become real, immediate.
