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.
1、电影开头阿伟在08年奥运会赛道上预备起步，然后闪回倒叙讲述从小到拿第一块96年奥运会金牌的过程，45分钟时跳跃接上04年奥运会跑步拿金牌的超燃画面，接下来的时间重点讲述04–08年之间的现实生活和跑步，完成开头的08年预备镜头闭环。2、母子的沟通对话水平正常有逻辑，也比较生活化。寻常的情节更温馨更轻松。 3、同工同酬，一个正常的运动员退役后也很难维持生存。一瞬间的光辉不代表永恒。 4、跑道上很简单，一直向前跑不会迷路，但是做人会，所以阿伟需要妈妈。5、他们只会怪妈妈。6、笑料温情和励志的比例大概是1.5:2:2，可看性高，但跑的方面过于简单了，面面俱到，是道美味佳肴但不会难以忘怀。
两个主要演员确表现出色，真的扮演出来了母亲与残障儿子之间的动人感情，以演技已经能够让人动情。
16分钟处，虚岁为什么翻译为，in Korea age？本来6.5的作品，因为这个无法容忍的翻译，打5.5比较合适
标准规范的传记片，反而没什么特点。煽情太过，配乐太满，升格太多，大可不必。
用细节打动人，作为母亲深爱残障的大儿子，二儿子背负着照顾大儿子的压力造成的心理不平衡和家庭矛盾是非常真实的表达，而一些不经意间的言语对残障人士的伤害也是许多人现实中会遇到的情况，我觉得这部电影最优秀的地方不在于对苏桦伟如何获得一次次奖牌的表现，而在于为了生存和比赛不得不去经历那些细枝末节的残酷
1、电影开头阿伟在08年奥运会赛道上预备起步，然后闪回倒叙讲述从小到拿第一块96年奥运会金牌的过程，45分钟时跳跃接上04年奥运会跑步拿金牌的超燃画面，接下来的时间重点讲述04–08年之间的现实生活和跑步，完成开头的08年预备镜头闭环。2、母子的沟通对话水平正常有逻辑，也比较生活化。寻常的情节更温馨更轻松。 3、同工同酬，一个正常的运动员退役后也很难维持生存。一瞬间的光辉不代表永恒。 4、跑道上很简单，一直向前跑不会迷路，但是做人会，所以阿伟需要妈妈。5、他们只会怪妈妈。6、笑料温情和励志的比例大概是1.5:2:2，可看性高，但跑的方面过于简单了，面面俱到，是道美味佳肴但不会难以忘怀。
最感人的部分是“真人故事改编”，里面一些话由于过于鸡汤而褪去了真实感，阿伟的弟弟从出生的目的就带着悲剧色彩。其中有一幕很生气，苏妈对方教练的妹妹说：“这条路这么好走，你为什么不走。”，转头又对阿伟说“我想找个人以后帮你剪指甲啊”，话里话外这个女孩子就应该看上阿伟而且作用最大可能是剪指甲，和被生出来是为了照顾阿伟的弟弟一样。
很套路，很煽情，但是不忍心给这样的电影打低分。相比于励志的故事，其背后所映射出的社会问题才值得我们深思，希望「同工同酬」永远都不要是一句口号。
有钱才能继续跑
《媽媽的神奇小子》亦如此，
可能是我之前没认真看？但第一次看见，茶水这个岗位的人出现在感谢的工作人员名单里。
感动点集中在前段和中后段，美中不足是感受不到08年残奥会对男主角、母子以及家庭命运有何特别意义。
从后面追上去
演苏的几位演员都很棒 嘲笑大陆的同类型影片
其实是神奇小子的神奇妈妈。少年时代的演员演的最好。
不知道为什么，吴君如在港澳女星里不算拔尖，我看过的作品也少，却莫名有种好感。
残疾运动员苏桦伟的传记影片，从背景交代到个人成长再到矛盾冲突之间的起承转合都完成得不错，有奥运精神与现实之间的艰难抉择，亦有母亲与残疾儿子之间的伦理思考，但略显不足，整体还是呈现了中国人自强不息的民族性格，告诉大家只要自强每一个妈妈都会“神奇”，每一个儿子都会是“小子”。正如现在的香港，以往共聚“狮子山”，现在背靠“大湾区”，只要自强何惧之有。
如果你看了这部电影没有哭，那我实在是理解不了你的境界。我很想把一包纸巾分一半给旁边的大哥大姐，但我自己也不够用。。。
3.5 很港风，吴君如还是很适合这样的角色的~~ 演员们都演得很ok~就是这片子比起传记片还是贴合亲情励志片~
演得太好了 可惜亲子线略过火 显得主角有些巨婴
