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.
2.5 宗教，故土，诙谐，哲理，爱与分离，以这种近PPT方式呈现，浪费情感，削弱共鸣。
片头这彩色全景拍的和商场里卖电视的地方放的风景片似的，还有到处不合时宜的bgm 真的想说就这呀
看了眼导演就明白为什么会私人到自我陶醉的程度。
导演这么私人，还搞致敬，为啥不自己亲自摄影呢，灾难啊，不要以为黑白多高级，黑白也能整成网大，尤其是还想和色彩硬蹭的时候。
肯爵的童年自传片？选择离开真的是一件很难的事情，对离开的人来说是这样，对留下的人来说同样如此。
Kenneth Branagh‘s most personal masterpiece, shooting in gentle black-and-white, with sporadic bursts of glorious color. 音乐好棒。想起一位在Belfast长大的朋友，自带爱尔兰的酒精灵魂与地域自豪。语言塑造氛围，上一次听科林摩根的爱尔兰口音还是在《MERLín》的专访。No one has captured the conflicts in Ireland more eternally than WB Yeats: "All is changed, changed utterly;A terrible beauty is born".
好多多余的镜头就像好多多余的台词一样
三星。头尾两幕处理的不错，然而第二幕近乎崩塌。黑白摄影和故乡这种私人化的情节处理不由得让人想到卡隆的《罗马》。《罗马》是克制且冷静的，《贝尔法斯特》则滑向了它的反面——肯尼思布拉纳似乎不知何为节制，各种意义不明的琐事和迷影情节拼接在一起，想要在各种程度上表现出他对故乡对个人往事的情感，却最终落入过度的自我陶醉之中。
太装腔作势了。又是总往演员脸上怼着拍的大特写镜头——“催吐镜头”。垃圾导演浪费优质演员。
蛮温柔的，布拉纳只要收敛自恋感，电影就其实还有点文化人气质。但也许是没有那种生活经验，代入感比较差，也时时怀疑是否那些音乐、电影只是符号的堆砌，或者是布拉纳由于太眷恋而执意加入。变彩色的那里，明白想法但灵气不足，显得有点矫饰
一个在老家的家。两兄弟，有一个大很多的哥哥，妈妈养大的，爸爸在伦敦上班，每2周回一次。故事只在这条街上，每天放学可以去爷爷奶奶家，每天上学会路过倾心的第二名女同学家，这条街被天主教徒骚扰。
不错啊，画面好看，故事简单深刻，希望能拿两个奖。最后一句台词——“Go.Go now.Don't look back.I love you,son.”
2.5 nobody cares your boyhood ya
二十分钟以后，Colin出现了，他演的是一个恶棍。dear Merlin ！对爱尔兰不了解真的很难进入。爱尔兰有天主教、新教，有共和军，有凯尔特文化，St. Patrick，吉普赛魔法……他们平时说话像念诗，念诗像唱歌……法鲨演的羞耻里面兄妹俩也是来自爱尔兰……爱尔兰到底是个什么存在啊。have a wee think...
很多地方都太过刻意 铺排了非常多元素 但是互相之间没有加成的效果 最后搞得花里胡哨的却没什么意思
说是糖水片应该再合适不过：光亮洁净的街景、温馨富足的室内、街角可控的肮脏混乱、高度局限的几个机位…但是这种愚蠢的乐观主义与复古预约的音乐相得益彰，让武装冲突如同发生在折叠图画书的某一页角落，墙壁和柏油路的粗砺质感被糖果包装盒的油亮光滑取代，所以苦心经营的历史性仇恨与悲怆瞬间变得滑稽不堪，只剩下惹人发笑戏言集合。
理应很私人，但童年散文般的叙事太刻意地想要讲述大时代下的暗流涌动，很难带入。
讲故事的方式和故事本身都中规中矩，一部传统而温柔的电影，四星。然后：作为一个不停地搬家的，习惯背井离乡的人，时而不时地被各种细节打动，加半星。片尾朱迪丹奇的大特写额外再加半星。（这是一条纯粹出于独断和偏见的短评）
2022.02.17一个人在蓝湾看。以小城窥大世：生存的困，时代的苦，小情的囧，大情的难。两个点：爷爷去世的萨克斯，88岁Dench最后的“Go. Go now. Don't look back”及门后垂首，以及小尾巴“For the ones who stayed. For the ones who left. And for all the ones who were lost.” 3星半。
呃真的是毫无惊喜的命题作文式电影……2.5
