INDIA is an exotic mixing pot of iconic wildlife, secret locations, epic landscapes and colourful beauty. This iconic and landmark series is a celebration of India’s most spectacular locations and incredible wildlife. From the "home of snow" in the epic Himalayan Mountains we travel to the mighty River Ganges, lifeblood of India as it carves out its dramatic path across the subcontinent. We also reveal Thar, the “Great Indian Desert”. Its territory includes much of Rajasthan (“the desert state”), where the bleakness of its environment is juxtaposed with the striking colours of traditional Rajasthani dress and amazing wildlife spectacles Also featured is India's lost world of the north east, home to head hunting tribes, tiger infested forests, mountains not yet climbed, rivers waiting to be fished. And finally to the Western Ghats. This biodiversity hotspot is home to epic waterfalls, hill tribes, hidden caves and stunning wildlife.. Part 1: Thar Desert Sacred Sands Covering 200,000 square kilometres, India’s Thar Desert is one of the harshest places on the planet. Baking heat, desiccating winds and near permanent drought has earned this unforgiving land another name – “the region of death.” As we explore India’s great desert we unveil its hidden secrets, and ultimately shed light as to how the Thar has become the most crowded desert in the world. Part 2: Ganges River of Life The Ganges is the longest river in India. It flows from the glaciers of the world’s highest mountains, the Himalayas, to the largest bay in the world, the Bay of Bengal. Human pollution threatens to overwhelm the river, but somehow wild animals survive. Hindus believe that Ganges water has the power to purify, and it seems there is some scientific evidence to support this conviction: microscopic organisms actually eat bacteria that could cause disease, and uniquely high level levels of oxygen break down organic waste faster than any in other river. This self-cleaning property of Ganges water helps support some of the last remaining true wilderness in the world – the Sundarbans swamp. Here, India’s largest population of wild tigers have never learned to fear man, making them very dangerous neighbours. Part 3: Himalayas Surviving the Summits Outside Asia, no peak reaches above 7000 metres, but along the Himalayan range, over 100 mountains exceed this height by at least 200 metres, making it the tallest mountain range on the planet.As Earth meets the sky along this hostile terrain, powerful winds, sub-zero temperatures, and a lack of oxygen oppose virtually all forms of life, but remarkably, this immense geological feature somehow supports one of the largest and most diverse collections of creatures on the planet – including man. While the Himalayas rugged highlands offer little direct refuge to humans, in the shadow below, over a billion people in India rely on the mountains for survival. Part 4: Western Ghats Monsoon Mountains Stretching for a thousand miles along India’s west coast, the Western Ghats are a spine of mountains that lay claim to being one of the most bio-diverse places in the world. Mountains rear their heads into the path of monsoon clouds, intercepting rains and making the western slopes some of the wettest places in India. Tropical rainforests thrives, and explode with life. The Western Ghats hold the key to life across southern India. Rainwater harvested by the mountains washes down to the coast, feeding Kerala’s backwaters; huge rivers flow east across India’s dry interior, a lifeline to animals and people. Part 5: Indias Lost World Imagine a lost world – head hunting tribes, tiger-infested forests, unclimbed mountains, pristine rivers. Known as the Seven Sisters of India, there are seven relatively unexplored and isolated Indian states. What mysteries lie within this secretive land and why have they remained untouched for so long? North-east India is an anthropological paradise; there is no other place on Earth with so many different ethnic groups. The forest slopes are filled with mysterious tribes whose lives are dictated by the ebb and flow of the rain and the seasonal fruits of the forest. In these largely unexplored and isolated areas people scarcely known to the Western world continue a way of life steeped in ancient rituals.
导演、编剧、演员都很好。但比起黑泽明的《罗生门》，不那么轻盈，神秘。
又看了一眼评论简直更震惊，不是，就这也配叫女性主义电影吗？最大败笔之一就是加上女主的视角让我再看一遍痛苦的rape却言之无物，更把最后本来是了结二人恩怨你死我活的决斗真的一锤定音变成了为女主而战，特洛伊战争一口锅推给海伦，堆出三个好刻板可憎的形象，女权这么好收买政治正确这么简单吗？那要置真正的女性主义于何地...yue
我喜欢这部电影，为了这部电影，我将手机扔一边，全身心投入这个故事里面。没有给五星是因为这部电影给了确切答案，如果朱迪·科默的那个版本也是真假难辨，这部电影就非常高级了。不同的人代表不同的叙事视角，早在七十年前，黑泽明已经玩过了。雷德利再这样搞， 至今已经不新鲜了。给女性发声，并不是新鲜的表达。
冲着雷老爷子去看的，看到第二幕就想到了罗生门，加上了女权和对决，还行不过不是我的菜
一个暴躁易怒，一个花心自恋，但是每个人在自己的故事中都近乎完美
其中能看出，马特达蒙是鲁莽武夫，亚当德莱弗是卑鄙小人，朱迪科默为了自己的清白和自尊不惜一死，她可以说是METOO运动的古代先锋。
有马版《罗生门》：“我不在的时候，除了丰收之外，我们的财富主要靠这些马繁殖。我买了这匹母马来繁殖，它带有战马的血统，它会生出许多有价值的小马，有时候，胜败与生死之间的差别⋯⋯不能是这匹种马！不，你不行！别上我的母马！大门要关好！母马正值发情期，这些事非同小可，要花钱的！”（有意义，无真相）胜 似输了。
故事还是很扎实的，不过三段的主观性本应通过视听表现，老雷这块儿有点儿行货那意思了。然而从思想性上，老雷八十多了可比某些年轻导演在平权上先进多了。
电影一开始就展现了一场决斗，高台上的女人，一定与她密切相关。但随着第一第二以及最后第三个视角的展开，我们才慢慢地发现，故事的确与这个女人有关，不过再一细想，又与这个女人完全无关。这个女人，只是父亲交易的一个筹码，只是丈夫的声誉（及泄愤工具），只是另一个风流倜傥男人又一个到手的猎物，还有大众餐桌上的谈资。我在想，假如这个女人，玛格丽特不说出真相呢？就像尚的母亲说的：真相并不重要，我也被强暴过。随着推移的镜头，我一下子被震住了。旧时代由于女人们隐忍着没有反抗，所以才持续着这种黑暗。活着，但是代价太大了，她们的女性后代永远都摆脱不掉这副枷锁。男人？女人当然需要男人们的支持，但归根结底，还得靠自己争取，一代人接着一代人，才勉强争取到现在一点点的权利。一个人在社会中，不可能只解放自己，而不解放他人。
ps.如果感兴趣可以扩展阅读《不轨之举》
大本和马达cp感自然得不能再自然，是因为共事，所以两个人都演得很放松吗。
当然肯定没罗生门在视听上开创意义大，肯定也没角斗士或者天国王朝那么宏大，很多视听也很旧，但是这种雷德利斯科特永远都知道怎么抓人，永远忘不了在上影节看末路狂花现场有多嗨，谁能想象这片子在大银幕放会怎么样
老实说，第一次点开这部电影应该是去年，马特达蒙的视角真没太看进去。今天看了一点儿男二的视角后，重新从头看这部电影，果真不一样的体验。像罗生门，一个事件，受害者丈夫，施暴者，受害者分别讲述，究竟谁说的才是真相？又或者都是假的吧。中世纪的社会制度扭曲残酷，到了决斗时刻，非常害怕尚会输，那样，妻子就将被活活烧死，还要烧二三十分钟…太恐怖了。明明是受害者，为什么还要承担被处决的风险？电影中反复强调的“愉悦”问题，不就是爱吗，很明显，女主和尚之间并没有爱。然而，别无选择，婚姻还要继续。这也是很多人说这部电影回归到nvquan的原因吧。女性一旦觉醒，会很可怕的。
漂亮的结构，导演的企图心又是如此的谦逊。细节里处处见斯科特对历史的把握与人性的谙熟。这一次他谦逊而有一些老谋深算地选择了变化的视角来处置沉闷的历史题材，揭示了视角属于谁谁就是受害者谁才是得道者的精美比喻。真正读史的人不能错过的一部好戏，爱电影的人应该注目的一部好戏。字幕升起，掌声，泪水应该献给这部提供了持久的共鸣感的电影。
稳！不过的确是闷/漫长了一点 最后司机被一刀直接插入口腔杀死一下子有点吓到 这竟然不是三级？！香港电检处真的应该吃屎 该做的不做 然后吧…I do get the charm of Driver but come on is it necessary to keep saying he is so dangerously handsome ?????
自私暴躁的骑士丈夫，虚荣不自知“凤凰男”，以及处处被当作工具的妻子，三个人物，三个视角，层层递进。第三章真正从女性视角出发，展现了中世纪对于女性的压迫和桎梏，女人们永远只是男人追求财富和权力的工具，更有借古讽今的意味。虽然是部中世纪历史片，但我愿称之为真正的女权主义片
她的好运气是万里挑一 勇气也是｜真实历史改编
十余年后，雷德利•斯科特再度拍摄了一部中世纪题材的电影，是对自己史诗电影生涯的一次再度回归，也是历史题材电影衰落的时代少数的高光，完全不同于《天国王朝》中浪漫的耶路撒冷和富有骑士精神的战争，电影前两部分两个男主的视角与最终女主的视角对比尽显一个男权主义者和一个自恋狂的丑恶，谎言之间“骑士”的荣耀是建立在压迫和黑暗社会的麻木之上的，最后的决斗可以说是血脉喷张，在民众们看来，是秉承正义的骑士维护了妻子的尊严，可实际却是毫不在意真相的男人赢得了所谓的“荣誉”，女人在幸运中逃过了死亡和羞辱。
本想在前两天就完成的，没想到还是成了新年的第一个；是在理斌车上听抓马讲完后半部分内容的；没想到是雷德利斯科特导演的，说是票房惨败，也确实，前三分之一确实挺无聊的；就是服化道依旧挺考究的说是花了不少钱；罗生门式的故事，最后Jodie的部分最精彩；我Jodie的美最终被发现了，从小银屏到大银幕了，早就用于百度头像了。
这是近期看过的最好的电影之一了…三段罗生门式的叙事将不同视角的真相展现给观众 让人看到两位男性的自私虚伪和女性的弱势凄惨…看到最后的决斗你希望他赢并不是他多正义 只是希望女主能掌握自己的命运罢了 其他一切都不值得
