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.
太真实了，不是所有的母亲都会享受变成母亲的这个过程的。有很多人挣扎在我是母亲我得伟大和真他妈烦我想一走了之之间。想离家出走想自我的母亲，也是有血有肉的。配乐真好。ps：原来是Maggie Gyllenhaal导的，果然女性视角表达的东西就很不一样。
7/10，这部片构思合格、制作工整，试图通过女主角的闪回戏和年轻母亲遭遇间的互文来深化角色形象，这种策略没问题，但具体制作上有诸多薄弱之处，比如对当下女主角的动机和转变的塑造较为欠缺，比如片中其他母亲的角色显得多余，甚至会影响叙事紧凑性。此外，片中儿童的塑造不幸沦为纯粹的符号，符号的构建几乎仅来自对儿童“吵闹调皮”的多次重复，这更让影片显得生硬、机械。本片是玛吉吉伦哈尔的首部作品，就结果而言这部电影已达到平均水准以上，期待她日后的作品。
导演的双线叙事和细腻特写描绘成为母亲后那些暗处的痛苦，并且这些痛苦曾被“母爱无私”道德绑架，连出现这种想法都是罪过。情绪表达很到位。
Maggie Gyllenhaal导演处女作，Leda中年和青年交替出现真是呈现了母职的纠结、挣扎和未必是所谓的天性的面向，过于真实和窒息。费兰特很喜欢的洋娃娃意象在这个故事里也是有点瘆人。（还是要去看下书是怎么展现这样的心理的…）
女主女配真的是演的好，尤其是奥斯卡影后科尔曼一如既往的稳啊，但除此之外没有一处是喜欢的，非常别扭和矫情的拍摄手法，其实是一个非常简单的故事，却表达的那么复杂又卖弄。也不要说什么女人作为母亲不容易了，生孩子的时候两个人就应该做好准备，否则就不要生，别得了便宜卖乖。
莱达不是一个好妈妈，甚至可以说她是一个糟糕的妈妈，在面对子女的时候，她的脆弱，她的焦虑，她的绝望，又会有多少人可以体会得到呢？
现代女性的痛苦，在于追求自我与释放母性的矛盾，要么放任中追悔，要么在囚禁里窒息，都不好过
8/10。当你有了窒息感与压迫感，总要靠喘一口气来疏解，千万别憋着。
几处略微重点刻画的女性的对视，都….，那种“我有些事想告诉你”的神情，在眼白的反光中闪耀，耀目到观众有点坐立不安….但剧作上我还有许多地方未想明白….
你看那些个男的 生个孩子都是给自己媳妇生的咋的
这部片想说的到底是什么呢，绝望中年妇女的追悔喘息时刻？恐婚恐育窒息片？I get lost....
Maggie犹如写散文一般创作了这部作品，情绪高于故事。如此女性，如此细腻。
冲着卡司来的，卡司没让人失望，配乐很上头！但总感觉一些该有的张力在刻意的剪辑和隐喻的铺陈中丧失掉了
三星半，玛吉作为演员的确更懂作为女演员表演张力，全程POV式的近面拍摄也的确更能代入感同身受，感受到女性们在生育命题中所被折磨的种种。整部片代入Leda就是弥漫着depress的情绪，喜怒哀情绪的跌宕，本着逃离而向宁静，却换来聒噪的大家族入侵，大家族也疏忽掉孩童的走失（而且是在争吵后的晾在一边），过去的那个自己。曾经才华横溢的花样女子，窒息的哭声和孩童们无理取闹的捶打，满屋的哭声和无法追逐梦想被拖累的人生。急忙的逃离透气和潇洒的激情再沁。搅局生活，旁观者迷，喜乐与烦躁并处如同她偷走娃娃照看娃娃的心理，悉心照看又丢入垃圾桶、身材拥抱换来是口水攻击、最后的笑眼中钻出恶心的虫子。压抑的犯罪氛围压迫，生育中长大的烂人，缺失的爱再循环，终归崩溃的人生需要和解，这一次我能够用手剥出不断的水果皮。导演处女作挺惊艳。
一直到影片的最后五分钟 都在怀疑两个女儿是否出了什么意外 然而并没有 一切都正常 大家都活得很好 但母亲内心的伤口也同时被无限放大 即使摆脱了痛苦和抑郁 却依旧是想到就会晕眩就会流泪的一辈子的创伤 算是继蓝色情人节和婚姻故事之后又一个家庭“劝退”电影 就听了几分钟电影里女儿们的哭声 就有点心情烦躁了 感觉到了那种crushing responsibility
不是母亲 也不像片中的女儿 作为一个从小就不哭不闹察言观色的孩子 不想有机会体验这种亲子痛苦了
一个中年女人在海滩度假 目睹了一个三口之家的甜蜜 同时也伴随着争吵 背叛 无力 这一切引发了她和自己两个女儿之间的往事 所有的亏欠都难以弥补 因为生命是一趟单程列车 有去无回。。好在结尾的电话预示着母女关系的缓和 但那些伤扣总在暗处 隐隐作痛
竟然感觉自己能跟女主共鸣很多事。Blue Lives Matter那里太好笑了，这么直接讽刺BLM没关系的吗
这个月把Leda这首配乐听了上百遍。作为女人的Leda和Nina以及（典型费兰特式的作为隐喻的）娃娃三者间相互纠葛相互映照的命运，Leda视角下一览无遗的女性的脆弱与坚韧、背叛与隐忍（毛线团一样拧巴在一起），以及费兰特书写里必不可少的来自他者（neighborhood）的紧张凝视，无一不成为冲破（中产阶级静谧安详的）希腊沙滩度假童话的那股涌动暗潮。
暗流涌动。情到浓时也不要随便生孩子，因为生完可能就陷入到烂泥一般的生活里了。
