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.
一部关于爱、欲、和满足的喜剧片。艾玛·汤普森饰演的55岁寡妇Nancy Stokes迫切渴望冒险、人类联结和性，渴望她人生中第一次很棒的性爱。丈夫Robert给了她住宅、家庭和看起来像样的生活，然而他已经走了，如今Nancy觉得“连有些修女都比我性生活更 丰富”，她一向是行动派，且当过老师，相当有条理，于是她马上开始实施计划：做了一些研究之后，Nancy雇佣了一个20岁出头的性心理治疗师Leo Grande，准备重启对自己身体的认识。
我只想说四个字，职业素养。虽然有点鸡汤，但互相以温暖，互相以分享。暖心又有趣。
题材和表演都很强。以为只是打擦边球。没想到亮点在最后。
管他什么主题，歌舞剧没一首能听的歌就是犯罪。太无聊了。汉密尔顿那种是勉勉强强能看下去的基本参照物好吗，无语，这种戏也会有人买票么，钱也真好挣。
是一个自身无比放松柔软的高维度的存在（Leo Grande）普渡众生的故事？肉眼可见Nancy从一块紧绷的铁板慢慢松弛下来的完整过程。我们喜欢喝酒抽烟having sex，因为，all we need is 松弛。
层次非常丰富的百老汇舞台剧，大到人道主义，小到个人友情、爱情；从种族问题讲到女性、LGBT群体的社会接纳；有生离死别，也有相遇重逢。正如剧中所唱，一些东西失去了，另一些被建立起来了。整部剧的基调是自由主义式的，或许这才是正确对抗恐怖主义的途径。用融合代替隔离，用积极代替阴郁，用好好生活代替暴力反应。（观影时间：2021年10月6日；自评：8.3；推荐指数：★★★★★）
上次看这种单一空间两个人物周旋的电影还是《穿裘皮的维纳斯》，这两部探索性与欲的电影剧本都很强。更喜欢这部电影的选角，两个演员的表演都非常细腻而有层次。一边逃避，一边逼近，一边顾左右而言他，一边深入。最喜欢两个人开头的寒暄，高潮还是自己给的以及结尾来自女性的凝视。再次感叹男主有种古典的完美，好想重金买个俩小时玩玩！
四次见面，对性不同形式的尝试且得到的正常反馈，随之内心不断改变对性想法，又能让身体更寻常地将性作为一件愉悦事，它是一个渐变的过程。去交流快乐的地方，不舒服的地方，以及渴望的时刻等，做爱应该是是生活中不需要去掩饰和假装的真实时刻，热烈的温度，交织的汗水，在欲望的海洋里畅游，哪怕你其实不会游泳/不过男主过于完美的设置，以及结尾女主跟当年的学生承认，都其实有点理想化。
一直get不到这部剧如此之高的口碑，正是因为取材自真实事件，但剧里只是堆叠各式符号和煽情元素未免太投机取巧，缺乏诚意了。（不过cfa的舞美设计真的是很巧妙）
Highly recommended.看完后第一时间推荐给朋友。看多了开心麻花，我都忘了这才是音乐剧（当然前面是话剧，我意思是好看的剧）。有伤痛、有开心、有反思，居然还是真人真事。途中一度想到我们的疫情难关能不能也出这样一个不煽情的好剧。场景、调度、演员、歌声、编排真的很棒。梦回西区！
啊我真的有被男主帅到…尤其抿嘴笑的时候，但是明明整体一眼看过去不是我喜欢的类型啊！怎么回事！
喜欢电影中二人的每次对话，虽然很理想化，但都是对现实生活的一种提炼和萃取，看完以后会给你一种思考。
啊我还是想看现场。。。明年能重新在国内巡演吗
曾经买了票却因为疫情取消的巡演；小成本制作的最佳效果；一群人演一群人、每个人都是主角、所有的“自己”都是“别人”……令人惊喜的新形式，甚至还歪打正着地蕴含了某种深度，不禁让人感叹，剧场到底还能玩出多少新花样？缺点是三观过正、略显说教……非常怀念音乐剧现场——911事件二十周年纪念日看“官摄版”
人类一败涂地，但依旧有闪光。
此刻需要非常律师禹英禑的同款表情“wow~ ⊙o⊙”哈哈哈哈，各行各业都有专业的敬业的人才啊，年轻的肉体确实很好看，但摆脱body shame才是关键
911同人衍生之“迷失”之音乐剧官摄录像，但不在live现场的观感总会打折扣，所以并没有很进入剧情，音乐没有很突出，不过在特殊时期守望相助的情感倒是颇能打动人，但这种美式主流正能量的鸡汤味有多浓，也是冷暖自知的事。
9.10号看的官录
#How a small island changes the world when the world is on the edge of falling.
封闭空间的作品毫无疑问人物要设置对，一个近乎理想化的秘密情人 一个教宗教学的假哈姆雷特式中学老师，有揭露回忆有矛盾有和解，剧作上节奏也是极好 至少不无聊。问题就在于性与道德这个脱不了干系两角，就如同后面打破幻想一般，你不知道你眼前这个人他会如何重塑你们当下的行为呢，而如此避谈，一是篇幅的确展不开，二则是暴露了作为寓言体去讨论但实则是灌输的形式。由此必然要考虑所谓的人物设置，也由此暴露了他所为新精品电影以保守中产女性作为目标这一属性，消解那些所谓“性化”的元素是为了否定性的承认先验的观点—我们都难以享受性并且性是生命源泉，而输出这一观点最大的悖论就在于排除一切社会因素却又必要的让人在社会中渴望它，排除必然的社会性却又妄图在真实中引用此种虚幻，而它女性向的打法最后只会失落于真实想象中
