剧情介绍

Set on the cusp of the 19th century in Delhi before the British ruled in that region, the drama depicts the fortunes of the residents of Beecham House, an imposing mansion surrounded by acres of exotic woods and pristine lawns. Tom Bateman (Vanity Fair, Jekyll and Hyde) takes the role of enigmatic, soulful John Beecham, a handsome former soldier who has purchased the magnificent mansion, Beecham House, to begin a new life with his family. Wealthy and distinguished, John has witnessed profiteering and exploitation during his time with the controlling East India Company and has resolved to conduct his business as a trader in a more equitable manner. Determined to escape his previous life, John appears haunted by his past, but is inspired to become an honourable member of the region’s trading community. In spite of John’s good intentions his life is shrouded in mystery and when he arrives at the house with an ‘olive-skinned‘ child named August and two Indian nursemaids, Chanchal (Shriya Pilgaonkar) and Maya (Trupti Khamkar), it causes speculation and gossip amongst the servants that he may be the boy’s father. One of the Indian nursemaids, the beautiful Chanchal, is overly protective and particularly fond of the child. Could she be John’s lover and the mother of August? Lesley Nicol (Downton Abbey) is John’s robust, interfering mother Henrietta who has travelled from England to India to stay with her son. She is accompanied by a young family friend Violet, played by Bessie Carter (Les Miserables) who she is determined to help form a union with John. The pair are accompanied by an old friend of John’s, Samuel Parker, played by Marc Warren (Safe, Hustle) who has also left the East India Company and has returned to India for a fresh start. Samuel helps John to find his brother Daniel who he has not seen for 10 years. John convinces Daniel, Leo Suter, (Victoria) to leave the East India Company and join him at Beecham House. Gregory Fitoussi (Mr Selfridge, Spiral) plays General Castillon, a French mercenary working for the Emperor at a time when the French are challenging the East India Company for India. Castillon is suspicious of John and his motives and conspires to stop John being granted a trading licence. Adil Ray (Citizen Khan, Ackley Bridge) is John’s neighbour Murad Beg who dislikes General Castillon intensely and agrees to help John secure a trading licence. Murad’s daughter, Roshanara, (Kanika Kapur) has an English governess Margaret Osborne, played by Dakota Blue Richards (Endeavour) whose beauty and intelligence catches John’s attention. However, when beautiful Chandrika (Pallavi Sharda) arrives at Beecham House with her entourage she is shown to luxurious guest quarters and immediately insists on seeing August. What secrets does Chandrika bring with her to Beecham House?

    从剧本上来看,是一种取巧的方法,但也正因为是看准了人性中共通的弱点,才可以引得观众的认可,而人类,究竟还要沉湎于互相撕扯这个行为多久时间呢?

  • 单思彤 5小时前 :

    20-min thrill, ridiculous. 女性应该要有拒绝的勇气和底气。

  • 帝星 4小时前 :

    说是特别篇,其实也是一个剧场版。预告里把辰巳队长剪的像一个反派,反倒是时岗队长是主角方的样子,没想到剧中反过来了,进姐夫的时岗队长前期塑造的确实完美,然后就来了一个180度大转变。

    lui et elle, deux perspectives sur une même scène. Qui est le vrai, qui est le faux?

    总体而言很有意义,但完成度欠缺,这类题材的电影越来越多,也希望能提供更多视角吧。

  • 乐子默 0小时前 :

    法庭辩论很精彩,但是根源不就是滥交?为什么设置所谓的内裤挑战,如果没有这件事,男主人设就彻底塌了,而女主如果不是因为这个挑战而感到的羞辱,事情的走向是不是可能又不同了…正是因为性行为在双方看来都不是什么大事儿,整个故事才成立。所以辩论虽然精彩,但是都是烟花,好看,不过也就看看。

    徐峥那一段致敬中国广告史还不错。吴京部分的战争戏太差劲了,甚至没有军事常识,镜头语言也照搬《战马》,当然他本人依旧有复活甲,被九二式重机枪子弹贯胸依然可以继续手刃日本军官。

  • 卫竞飞 5小时前 :

    这个系列“命题作文”感觉快把这些电影人的创造力和灵气耗干了。一百五十多分钟7个单元的时候还能感觉到精致和巧思,4个的话情节又不能太复杂单体也不够“寸”。

  • 施世韵 1小时前 :

    引人思索的电影,主要角色因为处在关系网中而具有多重身份导致了他们行为的复杂性。被侵害者因公开审判而在心里层面遭受的反复蹂躏真是触目惊心。

  • 凡稷 1小时前 :

    为什么总是需要no才会觉得对方在拒绝,她们没有说no,但是他们破碎的身体都在呐喊,都在说着拒绝。太喜欢最后结辩了,代理人跟辩护人都很出色,以及最大的人渣是垃圾男主爹。

  • 富察静雅 6小时前 :

    比我和我的祖国好太多了,应该把和祖国的电影票给和父辈。四部分都很好,没有一个差的。个别段落逻辑稍有点问题,科技落后的时候研究航天固体燃料有危险可以理解,为啥二十一世纪研究人工智能还能出人命?整体还是很赞的。

    最喜欢第三个故事,摄影色调构图都有布达佩斯饭点那味儿

  • 凡玉 0小时前 :

    最后一个故事和前三个是怎么在一部作品里的...不搭噶。感谢第三个故事给我缓冲,前两个催泪弹已经快给我炸死了。最喜欢章子怡的篇章,最完整最细腻最感人。京哥那篇小磊出场还挺惊艳,很适合这个角色。徐峥那篇很徐峥,我喜欢他的风格。沈腾那篇...不想说了
