Siddartha (Dhritiman Chatterjee) is forced to discontinue his medical studies due to unexpected and brutal death of his father. He has to now find a job in stead. In one job interview, he is asked to name the most significant world event in the last ten years. His reply is 'the plain human courage shown by the people of Vietnam', instead of the expected - man landing on moon. The interviewer asks is he is a communist. Needles to say that he does not get the job.
He reaches a coffee shop where he is offered to work for the communist party. When he does not show any interest the party leader tells him about an opening for a medical representative. To escape from the heat and have a snooze, he goes in to a cinema. As a government propaganda newsreel is being shown before the feature, a bomb explodes in the cinema hall. In the stampede that follows, Siddartha, breaks his watch. He goes to a watchmaker but he cannot afford the repairs.
Waiting to cross the road, he notices a sexy girl. He drifts back to his days as a medical student in a flashback. The professor is explaining anatomy of female breast. Many flashbacks and dreams occur to Siddartha through the film.
On his way to hostel, he has an encounter with some hippies. Along with an ex-classmate, he goes out to see a porn film but to their disappointment, the film turns out to be not-so-pornographic.
In such constant wandering in a Calcutta, disintegrated relationships with his sister and a Naxalite (militant communist) brother, his friendship with Keya is only thing that keeps him sane.
Keya is a simple girl. They enjoy each other's company but they cannot make any commitment to each other due to the circumstances.
After yet another attempt at a job interview, Siddartha leaves the big city to take a modest job of a salesman in a far off small town. He writes to Keya that he still cherishes their relationship. And that he has heard that bird call again but this time it is for real, and not his mind. After completing the letter, he comes out to the balcony of his modest room. The bird calls again. He also hears the sombre chants of a funeral procession. As he turns to the camera, the picture is frozen.
This is the first film of the Calcutta Trilogy. The other two were and Seemabaddha (Company Limited, 1971) and Jana Aranya (The Middle Man, 1975). All the three films study the effect the big city of Calcutta has on the educated youth and the price it extracts from them.
The seventies were a difficult period for India and West Bengal. The Corruption was rampant; the Naxalite movement had created havoc in Calcutta. In fact, they had turned parts of Calcutta into 'liberated zones'. By the time the Naxalite movement died down, in 1975, Mrs. Indira Gandhi (then, Prime Minister of India) suppressed the fundamental rights and declared "Emergency" for her own political survival. Her son, Sanjay Gandhi became a dictator of sorts without any official designation. The opposition leaders were thrown into prisons.
About his social responsibilities as a filmmaker, in an interview with Cineaste magazine, Ray commented, "You can see my attitude in The Adversary where you have two brothers. The younger brother is a Naxalite. There is no doubt that the elder brother admires the younger brother for his bravery and convictions. The film is not ambiguous about that. As a filmmaker, however, I was more interested in the elder brother because he is the vacillating character. As a psychological entity, as a human being with doubts, he is a more interesting character to me. The younger brother has already identified himself with a cause. That makes him part of a total attitude and makes him unimportant. The Naxalite movement takes over. He, as a person, becomes insignificant."
In a letter to Seton in 1970, Ray wrote that Pratidwandi was the most provocative film he had made till then. The film is said to have evoked extreme reactions. "People either loved the film or hated it", Dhritiman Chatterjee told Andrew Robinson, Ray's biographer.
贫富差距是实在看得到的，就老百姓周围看的到的，退休金都上万(哪怕是最基层和技术含量最小的)，企业退休的几千(一般企业两三千，我企业里退的比较高的，六千)，九亿退休金为0，好的几十块，就可以看得到光退休金一项，就有几十倍差距
终于不是皮套大战这种类型了，而且剧本相比以前好太多了，虽然文戏相对还是差了点，但瑕不掩瑜了。
随手看了，没什么感触，开始有点乱时候差点看不下去。后来剧情清楚了又觉得女主真的是年轻，因为年轻而无所畏惧，像风一样追求自己想要的东西。她一直很勇敢。想要的都去拿就是了。
是坚守政治理念的道？还是偏执于实行道的术？这就是影片里两位男主角之间的区别和争执，他们本可以相互配合，共同打造出理想的政治制度，但是却在是非对错中固守姿态，最终让对方陷入到落寞之中。 不过，真正成熟的政治家又怎么会如此二元对立地思考问题呢？理念的完美无缺自然是好事，但是想要在普罗大众面前施以绝对完美的政策又是何等幼稚天真！所以，压根不用思考什么道术之分，道术本身就是一体的，只不过这部电影用二元对立法将这一命题挑出来辩证分析而已。（鲜有废客）
饭馆，相逢一笑泯恩仇。
好看，主要围绕亲情，伦太郎这个憨憨，维斯还是一如既往的吵闹，最后的场景真的好温馨。
#《阿娜伊斯的爱情》#，电影话题有新意，人物不是我的菜。看她冒冒失失跑啊跑，老了爱平静的人，不对味。
看了几年的皮套大战，这一部可以说是近几年最佳了
对于向来只关注皮套和特效以及打斗动作场面来说，Century在这方面完全拉满！至于剧情，依然是那种看了开头就知道结尾的戏码。saber和revice俩主角所要传达的思想，在这部剧里完美融合。
这部联动应该可以算是令和top的水平了。
看的大部分时间里我都是周迅脸：好多人啊 真的 人太多了 导致骑士这边几乎全是背景板 礼拜四这边我有记忆点的只有狩崎和一辉…saber那边有记忆点的是伦太郎和芽依（这俩的线还对剧情推动没有任何帮助）剧情方面本作的主题是家族 剧情嵌套的故事也是比较常规的父子穿越 父子俩之间的交互 包括后边一辉被打倒在地以为自己要死了脑中闪回的走马灯 都可以感受到一定的家庭的号召 我并不是特别触动 但是可以理解他们的心情 整个电影最戳我的是最后面promise响起来之后 作为观众的我的情绪突然变得很激动…现在想想大概率是歌太棒了的原因…【另外 本作与tv初期是同期拍摄的 对比现在 尼桑的演技真的进步了 这一部里一辉整个人都很紧绷 不如托马他们松弛 而现在tv里尼桑也可以做到放缩自如了 真好
政治宣传的不择手段，宣传的真谛就是迷惑人心
2019年就听到这片消息，看来也是拍完积压了很久。演员是好演员，但跟近几年的政悚片放一块儿还是相形见绌。
B线 未完 打倒魔王之后
Je ne suis pas d'accord.
总算不是硬生生的皮套乱战了，Century真的好帅啊！
25年前：You're always my hero
仮面ライダー ビヨンド・ジェネレーションズ
影片的背景和时间，是已故金DZ总统的故事没错了。反复以柏拉图和亚里士多德的师生关系影射两人，最后结果自然会青出于蓝。纵使几位主演的演技都炉火纯青了，但没什么紧张感导致电影就很催眠...
纳尼 这不比那个什么南山部长什么的 好一万倍啊……分却这么低 🤷♂️
