The River

About The River

Director Jean Renoir’s entrancing first color feature—shot entirely on location in India—is a visual tour de force. Based on the novel by Rumer Godden, the film eloquently contrasts the growing pains of three young women with the immutability of the Bengal river around which their daily lives unfold.

Jean Renoir's The River is a 1951 romance film. At 99 minutes long, it arrived in September 1951.

Nora Swinburne takes the lead as The Mother, Esmond Knight as The Father, Arthur Shields as Mr. John, and Suprova Mukerjee as Nan. Written by Jean Renoir and Rumer Godden. It is adapted from a novel.
