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.
看到结局一脸懵，这啥啊，这也太扯了，为了凸显主角其他人都有点降智。
案件中规中矩，各个老角色的人物呈现延续了系列一如既往的风格，小花作为新女主和SP里观感一致，好过S2，问题是西岛叔，SP里铺垫了那么多，结果还是拿着好人卡在电影里也没什么作为，多少有些令人失望。
西岛和道枝仿佛在两个世界，道枝怎么会这么接不住戏，他完全在自己的独立世界当中，而且他的脸这么看也就这么回事儿了
剧情硬伤严重到叹气的地步了。。新女主实在中二的让人尴尬 松本润的演技依旧很。。松本润 香川叔是我唯一看下去这个ip的动力
咋说呢…这个系列，还是第一季最好看。对电影版真的抱有了很大的期待，没想到，就这？？sp里西岛秀俊的角色在电影版里啥也不是啊，感觉sp白塑造这角色了
香川照之老师，
节奏和剧情比SP强太多了 客串的角色很多但也都圆得还可以 虽然我还是很讨厌穂乃果这个角色的设定… sbr能碰到这个角色真的很幸运 主题曲一出来还是有点泪水小喷
没想到2022年了还能听到find the answer😭不过案件确实普普通通了
还可以 看到最后也差不多接受了小花的中二吵闹 甚至觉得有点可爱 道枝弟弟还是比较适合演憨憨笑的傻白甜 谐音梗依旧难笑到想跳过 香川叔歌舞伎感好强😂
剧情还是不错的，但是道枝演技最拉跨，还让他担当那么重要的角色
其实四星有点勉强，大体没有突破原著设定，无功无过。第二部的女主真的完全可以不出现，奈奈也不是一定要出现的，最多算个情结吧。
还不错！道枝骏佑都长这么大了啊！西岛叔还是帅帅帅！马子俊也可！全员都回归了超棒！
电视剧里的梗搬到大荧幕上有那么一些些的尴尬，特别是拔耳朵的圣光特效，但是奈奈很好看
熟悉的风味，总的来说就是把SP更加扩大成了一部电影。我还是要说穗乃果真的好适合做深山的助手，相性很合。
很多人类的教育真的做的叫一个荒谬。 真相是为了用来让人幸福的吗？我还从来没有这样考虑过这个问题，但我觉得不是。
全片最爱大概还是奈奈酱回归的那几分钟，第一季真是很经典了耶！
这个如果是SP那还能算合格，没想到居然是电影？？剧情普通至极，节奏也慢，精彩程度还不如电视剧。
输出水平稳定，就是图个乐呵。
999系列不要停好吗……虽然这个电影结局是不是有点似曾相识？小孩无意识犯罪，大人包庇，总之还是那个味。ps道枝演技真的好差
前半节奏还不错，看到结局我？？？就这？？？按大银幕的标准来看的话还是差了点。btw西岛叔还是好帅🥺
