Parash Pathar " would belong among Ray 's best work , were it not for some rough edges which betray the speed at which it was shot ... . its humour only partly transplants to the west . " says Andrew Robinson . Satyajit Ray himself described the film as a " combination of comedy , fantasy , satire , farce and a touch of Pathos . " The film was entered into the 1958 Cannes Film Festival , where it was nominated for the Palme d'Or ( Best Film )
