The ship has been stuck in the doldrums for some time, but as soon as they break free into more promising water, the wind blows up suddenly, damaging the foremast and sending the ship right back into the still water. Mr Prettiman takes a hard fall and is laid up in his cabin, Miss Granham tends to him and the two announce their engagement.
A ship is sighted in the distance. As everyone prepares for the encounter with the enemy Edmund hits his head. He is badly hurt, but struggles on. The ships draw close, but instead of bringing an encounter with the enemy, it is The Alcyone, a British ship captained by Sir Henry Somerset, they announce that the war is over.
The two boats are tied together for a ball. Edmund meets Sir Henry's ward, Marion, and immediately falls in love. But his head injury takes its toll and he falls unconcious just as he was going to beg for her hand. After some days he finally recovers, but the two ships have parted and Marion is gone.
Edmund's servant Wheeler was on board the Alcyone. He had spent four days in the water after going overboard and had finally been spotted, rescued by the crew and eventually returned to the original ship. As they sail on, there is yet more damage as part of the keel falls from the ship. The passengers start to panic, convinced it will sink. Edmund finds Wheeler in his cabin with a gun, after his last scrape with death he is terrified of drowning, and he shoots himself.
一个有点可笑的年轻人在探索世界的同时自己也得到了成长。
居然格外紧凑，一点不拖沓除了部分舞蹈，印度真的敢拍啊，不过种姓问题真的好难解
30分钟男主角才登场，也是神奇的安排，搞得开始的时候真的不知道电影要讲啥。电影没有刻意的宣扬对立，鼓动变革，但正是这种克制，假设根据真实事件改编，更让人感到种姓制度的可怕。
小人物，大历史。为推动社会进步而做出的一点点努力都应该被记录下来。
导、演、剪、编都是行活，但是意义非凡。人文关怀是四颗星的最后一颗。我们也需要一个又一个这样的律师，如果我们还能容得下这样的律师的话。
列宁铜像桌上摆，马克思画像墙上挂，社会主义心中留，共产斗士救贱民！！！！

振聋发聩的真实事件改编，当执法者变成犯罪者，这起印度的“秋菊打官司”的绝望在仿佛完全不现实但却确确实实发生了的理想主义微光中获得了公正。不要因为它是印度电影就小看它，用眼睛去确认吧。
印度又一部超级震撼的电影，题材火爆，节奏把握严丝合缝，虽然带有一定的理想主义色彩，但思想性极其深刻，印度电影已经在引领世界电影的走向了。
由真实案件改编，有智慧的律师和有骨气的妻子，还有千万劳苦百姓。
没有程序正义，实质正义就是一句空话，没有民权，民生就是板上鱼肉。电影中的人权律师是一名共产党员，但这中国，这种角色会被打上公知或自由派标签。公平正义就是公平正义，没有所谓自由派或左派之分。正如雨果说:“在绝对正确的革命之上还有一个绝对正确的人道主义。”
黑警虽然可恨，种姓制度虽然让人愤怒，但起码律师上街不会被寻衅滋事，农妇维权不会被恶意上访，高等法院判案不需要看谁脸色。
事件是震撼的 但拍摄手法人物塑造太过于刻板流水账
本身是部好电影，但为什么我不爱看印度电影，总是用一些低级的手法，比如出场正面人物的慢动作再加上走路自带BGM的镜头让我十分不感冒。
不管一个国家的国情如何，能拍出这样的电影，能有人权律师在踏踏实实地为低种姓底层人民争取斗争，还能有一些心存良知、愿意和腐败体制抗衡的官员存在，那么这个国家就还有希望。对于经济欠发达国家的底层人民来说，能好好受教育，才是下一辈改变命运的最根本条件啊。
十几年的真实案件改编。。。
感觉这个故事，跟某国的操场埋尸案，有点同步啊。。。怎么印度这个时间段突然想着拍摄这样一部电影呢？是不是看了某国的新闻，来故意拍电影映射的啊。。。
对于印度底层民众，这部片子在十年、二十年、甚至百年后仍会有影响力。
唯一槽点是男主的“霸总”出场，他越过栅栏的一刹那，恍惚感觉下一秒会有个妹子出现
影片的现实意义非凡，几乎可以忽略其艺术性，不同地域、不同时代、不同环境，却能让大多数人感同身受，除了来自真实事件的震撼，本片主创人员的专业素养也扎实过硬，其实难的不是敢不敢拍，而是在一部电影的时间内让人产生共情。
宝莱坞风格的《辩护人》，但同样非常有力量！
