Very well executed
Strong and Moving!
SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
This film is so powerful-- I can see why it has the support of Susan Sarandon, Sean Penn and Meryl Streep. It is hard to get it out of your head once you see it-- and you shouldn't, you should act and be part of this important movement. The editing was brilliant, the access unbelievable and the content quite horrifying. The events will hopefully move the world to change. Leslee Udwin does an fantastic job of not only telling this really difficult story. The film is just over 60 minutes but it feels like it ends at precisely the right moment-- when you want just a little more. Kudos to all involved. This could go down as one of the most important documentaries of this century and it would certainly be deserving.
First of all I don't know what exactly is offensive in this and whom it may offend. If we expect the accused to be respectful to women or not say offensive things towards women ( which even the defense lawyer so proudly supports), then we are bound to be disappointed. There has always been discrimination on gender basis in India , so nothing should be expected from these people.Actually not their fault most people are brought up with these values. Lady in the Documentary says education is the best way to tackle the problems India faces , but I think poor people for whom making both ends meet is a very difficult task and asking these people and their children to go for 'not so important' education' may be a difficult task. So if my opinion was to be taken it should more be about making strict laws,ensuring better law and order in the country and teaching our younger generations about equality not just on gender basis but on caste basis too . Controlling population would help too.
OK. They want to spread a message, I am all for that and believe it is for a good cause. I support this documentary minus the part where the rapist gives interview. These people don't deserve to speak let alone give their views. We all were irritated when the rapist spoke but do you think he would speak anything to offend the already offended audience? No. He was trying to defend himself. Why should he be allowed to do that? And as if letting a rapist share his view was not enough, they paid him Rs. 40000(650 USD). SO enlighten me, how will hearing a rapist by paying him money will cause anything good or spread awareness in the society. Shame on Leslee Udwin, and shame on BBC. They are so blind and greedy to make money that they will pay a rapist for that and let him defend himself to a crime he has accepted he did.
I live in India and the point of view towards women in our society from Historical culture heritage till modern world is described at utmost accurately as Mirror shows our true face in reflection. Recent claims of Leaders about knowing truth will educate people about criminal mind thinking and people would act accordingly. Decision of ban was made and all copies of this videos were completely removed instantly.This turned out nothing but false statement, in video there is not a single thing about it. A tragic event took place and shook the world in December 2012. Everything and anything about a innocent girl, who was passionate about opening a hospital in her rural village to help locals in future is ruined as she was suffered a brutal death caused by four low mindset criminals in one unfortunate night. Impact before and after incident on lives of victim and criminals involved is recorded as it is, not a shingle shred of unwanted education is exhibited. The act of ban indicating rigid, inflexible mindset of Leaders towards change in Modern society taped in video clearly. This BBC documentary is banned by our current Indian Leaders, who are nothing but lamest person on earth. This curiosity to watch this banned Documentary in such a short notice is a remarkable step by government to stop the world from getting root of truth. Nothing but a purposely done to act to hide ugly mindset in our society that exists and faced daily in our life about child marriage, restriction on gender basis. Veracity of this BBC Documentary is crystal clear and everyone should watch this video. The Question raised in the end would obviously confronted by society. Showcase of what the tragic incident happened to common man, it was suppressed instantly by government.I believe there is no need to evaluate this documentary, because the Director has done a remarkable job in exposing the truth and immediate ban from Indian government internet is cogent evidence.Only one final question raised is that, when this creepy mindset will change about women otherwise consequences will be inevitability grave? That answer is only given by you, after all you are the judge.
