Devon Ke Dev...Mahadev is the story of the Hindu God Shiva, also called as Mahadev. The show portrays his journey from a hermit to a house holder. In the show Shiva takes many incarnations and many incidents take place. However, this plot mentions only the major events.
The story starts with the tale of Shiva's marriage with Sati. Sati who is the daughter of Prajapati Daksha, a staunch Vishnu devotee, is drawn towards Shiva against the wishes of her father. She finally marries Shiva, but soon dies by self-immolation when her husband is insulted at the yajna of Daksha. The grief-striken Shiva produces Virabhadra, who slays Daksha, however he restores Daksha's life after beseeching of Daksha's wife. A distraught Shiva leaves with burnt corpse of Sati and wanders the universe. Vishnu severs the body into pieces, shattering them on earth. Shiva transforms the pieces into Shakti Peethas, embodiments of the power of the Goddess Adi Shakti.
Sati is reborn as Parvati, the daughter of Himavan, king of the Himalayas and Mainavati. She is also the sister of the river-goddess, Ganga. Parvati is raised in the hermitage of the Shiva devotee sage Dadhichi, who teaches her devotion to Shiva. Parvati grows up and like Sati, is captivated by Shiva. She slowly remembers her past life, then wins Shiva by her austerities leading to their marriage.
Shiva and Parvati give birth to Kartikeya, who slays the demon Tarakasura and his brothers. Kartikeya is also nominated for the throne of the King of Devas but Shiva asks Indra to continue as the king. After this Kartikeya is sent to the Dakshin (south) where he is cared by Meenakshi and here he slays the demon (asura), Tripath with her help. The story goes on with the tale of the destruction of Tripura, belonging to the revengeful sons of Tarakasura, who were earlier given boons by Shiva. And just before the destruction of the Tripura, Shiva and Parvati's daughter, Ashoksundari is born.
After the destruction of Tripura, except Lord Indra (the King of Devas) everyone congratulate Shiva for destructing Tripura and also for being the father of Ashokasundari. Rishi Durvasa gives him a special garland, which Shiva gave Narada as prasadam. When given Lord Indra accepts the garland placing it on the trunk of his elephant, Airavata to proof that he is egoistic throws it. This enrages the sage and he curses Indra and evryone to be bereft of all wealth and fortune. Soon later to take revenge on the destruction of Tripura, King Bali attacks heaven and in attempt to steal Amrita (nectar of immortality). But it falls into the Ocean of milk. To get the Amrit back Devas join hands with Asuras to churn the ocean for the Amrita and to share it among them.
The churning of the ocean, known as Samudra Manthan is an elaborate process. In the process the Devas disadvantage the Asuras in many ways. Despite this, they churn the ocean. In the process Lord Vishnu also takes his second incarnation of a turtle, Kurma.
The process releases a number of things from the ocean. One product is the lethal poison known as Halahala. This could contaminate the ocean and destroy all of creation. To save everyone Lord Shiva inhales the poison in an act of self-sacrifice but Parvati rescues him by pressing his neck to stop the poison from spreading. As a result, the color of Lord Shiva's neck turns blue. During the churning many things are obtained from the ocean which includes Lakshmi, the Goddess of fortune and wealth, who is the eternal consort of Vishnu. Thus, everyone gets their wealth and fortune back. Later Vishnu takes the Amrita secretly from the Asuras and distributes it among the Devas.
The story takes some years leap after which it is shown that Kartikeya has been removed from the post of Senapati(head of the army), which pleases Indra and for the first time after so many years, a grown-up Ashoksundari meets Kartikeya. Kartikeya also meets his parents. He enlightens Ashoksundari about meditation and she inspired by it so much that she renounces her life to meditate, which disturbs Parvati.
Looking at the ill happening of the world, of how Ahalya is seduced by Indra, Mahadev come indside. Even after Mahadev tells that he is his father and many other gods tried to tell him, he still refuses. Mahadev got angry and cut Vinayak's head.
不知道是不是我预期太高了,外加不了解原型人物&原作的原因,我没怎么看明白。
无论是情绪还是叙事节奏都乏于变化,可谓扁平
其实我先看了倒数时刻的音乐剧,然后完全没看进去…这个改编已经很强了,Sunday那首歌全是彩蛋。顺便赞同那句人人都爱Sondeheim(跑偏了。我最最最感动的应该是最后那段电话留言,真的是Sondheim自己录好了发给LMM的,哭了
很多歌曲都颇能引起我的共鸣。
给LMM跪了,歌写得好,拍电影居然也这么棒,完美的电影化,超过In the Heights一个La La Land吧
我能看《第七封印》《都灵之马》《四次》《另一个故乡》这种闷片都能看得津津有味,歌舞片对我来说是一个坎,上次愉悦地看完一个歌舞片还是《爱乐之城》,这片的主角本身就长在我的审美盲点上(不知道怎回事,看到这种五官尤其是咧嘴的时候,脑海里总是浮现出傻子的观感),加上每次一起音乐——不能说好坏,只能说实在是太不对路了,于是,分数再高,也无法坚持看下去,不想折磨自己。
"Keep writing, and meanwhile, be proud"
可能是这类故事我真的看太多了,不管有多喜欢seasons of love,对这部的感受也只是一般【当然有的歌还是不错的】
没想到和pose如此梦幻联动!对不起jonathan!我一定会去看一场现场rent的!曲子没有期待中的抓人,但还行吧… 我最喜欢的是susan天台的那场。michael和susan的演绎比招来的演员动人多了。所以superbia有演出过吗?我真得好想看“外星人和未来”的音乐剧…
LMM第一部导演长片成功了!很励志!很感人!加菲真的很强!
勇敢去爱
片中有很多眼熟的音乐剧演员献唱,但轮到加菲就断崖式下跌。
超级被打动,创作人被看见之前漫长的孤独疲惫和那份拼命与之撕扯的热爱太让人动容了。在这个已经长久被不安与焦虑笼罩的时代,在这个充满漂泊感与随时感到有可能被放弃的时间点,人类的热情与希望很需要一些被唤醒的时刻,感谢天才与艺术。很可惜的一件事是听不到小声喧哗聊聊这部电影了。
泳池那场戏很有创造力。故事选取了主角年满30岁之前的那段潦倒时光去讲,视角也挺独特。
当然,关于这种有所执着,有所梦想的坚持,如若能代入于观众的语境,那必然是很好的,只可惜主角身边一群艾滋患者,也让我试图代入主角时心有戚戚。
创作者们都知道了要写自己了解的事才能打动人,于是越来多的作品就是聚焦于创作过程本身……歌太密了吧,还挺洗脑的,让情绪一直跟着节奏律动,故事虽陈旧还是能让人投入其中。
动画之于电影,电影之于音乐剧——绝对是利大于弊。另外很喜欢他朋友的段落,激发灵感、激发情感、激发问题,而问题恰是死亡无法掩盖之物的答案。不过影片的音乐(尤其前半部分)不是我菜。P.S. 加菲从头含泪至尾,心疼了心疼了。
选取三十岁前夕的工作坊筹备作为主要事件,它不是真的最后营救,却有效地映照出当时当地戏里戏外的遭遇和心情。跳脱的歌舞和纪实的传记类型,在一种相似的怀旧情愫中完成了合奏。
用音乐剧讲述音乐剧people创作音乐剧的故事,音乐剧people真是太……算了不说了,多说多错得罪人。
Fear or Love…
