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.
优点和缺点都很明显的一部片子：从视听上讲，艺术程度不低，冷峻和疏离感塑造得很好；从剧情上讲，剧本实在不敢恭维，节奏也很拖沓。不过，奥斯卡在这部片子里也太辣了点，一头灰发冷着脸大吼着把男二推在床上那段我整个人都精神了。
想赎罪，换个别的行业呗，选德州扑克干鸡毛啊！整那气场跟赌神似的，我TM人都码好了，你给我看这个。
左棍施拉德，面对几乎谈了半辈子的道德至上救赎母题，你还是不明白他为啥选择这么个片情设置，只能从看后的结果回推，算牌这种可以自己掌握大部分确定性，远胜过稍有意外的不确定性，提供了一种康德式把持救赎命运可能性的强控制，硬核的“劝人向善”算是自觉完成救赎，但是，代表未来的孩子，毕竟不是也永远不会是自己可控的属己之物，而总有超出自我的部分，大概就是道德律令般{但做好事、回报以至}的理性神学了，这份终会到来的救赎回报，在结尾，以施拉德自鸣得意、久久停留的《创造亚当》式构图结束，甚至还能看到些女性靠爱情挽救男性的女权意味，真是老旧亦或时髦的主题都雨露均沾了，学院应该有所表示。
浓浓的廉价感和莫名其妙的人物关系，还有各种让人出戏的配乐和拉黑过场，看得尴尬癌发作。两星都给Oscar Isaac的表演。
叫你回家探亲，不要去白给啊小伙子
中规中矩，平平淡淡。ps台湾宣发做的和💩一样
La rédemption d’une âme tourmentée.

Schrader donne ici une masterclass de comment filmer le vide en plaçant au centre de son film une figure évidée incarnée majestueusement par un Oscar Isaac glacial au visage presque figé inexpressif. Comme un fantôme du passé traumatisant qui hante le présent, le héro ne cesse d'errer dans des lieux publics impersonnels ambiancés par une mise en scène sèche et sidérante. Conte cruel dans une Amérique sans échappatoire ni rédemption possible.
看的时候觉得这个片儿和《第一归正会》有点像，原来一个导演。
电影通过倒序描述一个赌徒的人生，来达到揭开国家的黑暗面，导演希望通过这样描述来得到观众的共鸣。可见在美利坚人眼中，容不下那些冰山一角的腐败，他们追求着一个完美的平等的法治国家，想对于地球的另一面，铺天盖地的黑暗，他们已经幸福很多了。
十分政治正确的老美电影，节奏表演本子都过得去，也是许瑞德正常发挥，但就是不喜欢…
说实在话我不知道片子到最后是要讲什么，难道是伤害别人的人也有PTSD吗？谁能给我解解惑
蛮平平无奇的，赌博、复仇、救赎哪条线都没讲好，不是结局监狱和足足五分钟的食指相碰的话可能只想打两个星（🤤谁的爹
没字幕听Oscar Isaac讲牌的规则我就开始困
《出租车司机》导演+《醉乡民谣》男主角+《头号玩家》男主角 打的一手迷幻牌，喜欢导演这严谨的视觉格调。
+0.5。自己都救不活的时候就别想去救别人了…（有联想到布列松
真的是完全靠奥斯卡的个人魅力撑起来的一部电影，且他本人还有点面瘫在这里。鱼眼镜头是为数不多的亮点，但也仅限于此。玩牌的部分和主线反战的结合也不是非常紧密，配乐和空镜更是到了滥用的程度…
