Interview is a 1971 Bengali film directed by noted Indian art film director Mrinal Sen. It was the debut film of Ranjit Mallick. Although it was a film on the colonial hangover, it touched on diverse issues like anti-establishment, middle class cowardice, and unemployment.
This film is considered to be the first film of Mrinal Sen's Calcutta trilogy, the others being Calcutta 71, and Padatik.
Plot
Ranjit Mallick is a smart personable young man. A friend of the family, who works in a foreign firm, has assured him of a lucrative job in his firm. All Ranjit has to do is come to an interview, dressed in a western style suit.
It seems like a simple enough task, but fate intervenes. A strike by a labour union means that he cannot get his suit back from the laundry. His father's old suit won't fit him. He borrows a suit, but loses it in a fracas in a bus. Ultimately he has to go to the interview dressed in the traditional Bengali dhoti and kurta.
