The Darjeeling CD... over a cup of Darjeeling Tea
I really enjoyed watching The Darjeeling Limited. Like all Wes Anderson films it was funny, irreverant and at moments, touching. The soundtrack for his films are all usually pretty good. The thing to remember about this soundtrack, is that the "funny" doesn't come through on the cd. What does come through is the irreverant mix of indian and western songs, and the mood that it invokes. That mood is a stong yet calm, peaceful set of music. Perfect for that long drive, or an evening at home with a glass of wine.
Don't believe the product tag that says this is "bollywood". Think of Satyajit Ray movies (and music) as the Akira Kurasawa of India.

Not as good as being there
Loved the movie but the music sans the whole experience not as good worth picking up for some of the French gems though.

The Indian Songs
This is a goldmine for a Satyajit Rai beginner. Now, not only do you have the music in an accessible format, but the movies from which the songs were selected are listed on the CD case as well. Happy hunting! Watch out though, some of the songs aren't really from the listed films. For example, "Charu's Theme" is from the movie "Charulata," not "Joi Baba Felunath." Loved the movie (the art!) and the music.

Darjeeling = road trip
Even if you didn't see the movie, you would absolutely enjoy the soundtrack. The compilation moves you through feelings of anticipation, exuberance, and redemption all as the same time. Even if at times you don't understand some of the words or know the song, you will still feel yourself immersed in the emotion. Good music to listen to while on a road trip. Excellent choice.
