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.
落地爱丁堡的第二天直接filmhouse without caption有被动勇到 奶昔好喝但人很晕 再也不要看手持一镜到底了呼呼
容容和雅雅对东方也很好啊，他离开了涂山，也还是会来看望他，和他一起喝酒，带点心给他～亲情也很美好对不对！
我只想说 这个词怎么跟原来读书的对不上啊 虽然画质感人 但是狐妖党不嫌弃 所以扣1个⭐️ 东方还是一如既往的j啊 哈哈哈哈
落地爱丁堡的第二天直接filmhouse without caption有被动勇到 奶昔好喝但人很晕 再也不要看手持一镜到底了呼呼
节奏很拉胯，台词很中二，画风很难受，剧情很敷衍。你们结盟这么大的事情就这么容易被破坏了？决斗决定得这么草率吗？决斗的时候不能带个奶妈吗？😅王权富贵的人设都要崩了，我的男神怎么废话这么多...
狐妖是部良心国漫的很大一个原因就是虽然每一步都需要有提高的地方。但是每一部都在进步，不管是制作还是画风，这次月红2算是一个不小的进步惊喜了。
补全了一点点（真的只是一点点）细节，打斗场面糟透了
狐妖作为国漫崛起的领军作品，本来就会做很多其他作品不敢的新尝试，这种时候我们更应该支持和鼓励，而不是一味地挑三拣四。
一顿饭的功夫就看完了，虽然我吃饭慢，可你也不能这么短啊，不够看
但开篇看到联合出品人居然有“爱德朱”三个字，哈哈，看来国电钱赚多的都够投资动画了。很好很好
剪辑的不行，作画不行，剧情交代的不清楚，也就音乐和配音不错，给四星纯粹是因为对狐妖的热爱
3.5分，很有趣的电影，一镜到底的手法展示一家餐厅的混乱和嘈杂，让观众深入后厨，看得让人窒息，但是导演几次把镜头放到后门小巷，卫生间和办公室，天然的隔绝开沸腾的大堂和后厨，极好的控制了节奏，动静结合，偶尔让餐厅人员（包括观众）获得一点安静，立刻又转入下一刻的忙碌，应该说电影技巧还是很棒的，故事也很写实，结局留下了些悬念，值得一看的片子。
为了一镜到底剧作不择手段，不停编写不和逻辑/常规的冲突，涉及餐饮行业的细节，一些地方对，但一些地方很错很错，为了服务戏剧冲突。但是一镜到底还是颇为成功，戏剧感满满之余电影独特的视听还是很丰满。结尾很不喜欢，人物塑造缺失灵魂感，只有面对冲突的应激反应，很遗憾。多给一颗🌟给场面调度的训练/掌控，基本还是不错，值得电影院一看。
应该是一镜到底的吧，很大胆，节奏非常好！尽显人生职场百态。单纯追求视觉刺激的人应该会看不下去。
还行吧，总体来说过于平淡吧，不过我觉得还可以吧。总归还是那两个字：还行。
剧情方面细化些剧情，使当年的事情更加明了了，可能是节奏设置的问题，还是有点过快。我知道这篇肯定是想让人感动的，可我不负众望。一点感慨都没有
月红值得，这部电影不值得！
比起动画真是差远了，剧情赶在一个小时里告诉你这些年发生了什么，没看过动画的怕是也看不明白，作画也是有点一言难尽。
什么垃圾乱糟糟的。一镜到底除了能耍酷对讲故事有什么帮助？
虽然但是，还是骗了我一波眼泪，动漫好久没更新了，再一次看到还是很怀念的，最后白月初和苏苏的惊喜出场还真是让我太感动了😭
