剧情介绍

  Daniel Mays (Line Of Duty, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Public Enemies) stars in BBC Two's powerful factual drama as Peter Wildeblood, a thoughtful and private gay journalist whose lover Eddie McNally (played by newcomer to television, Richard Gadd), under pressure from the authorities, turned Queen's evidence against him in one of the most explosive court cases of the 1950s - the infamous Montagu Trial.
  More than ten years before the decriminalisation of homosexual acts in 1967, Peter Wildeblood, and his friends Lord Montagu (Mark Edel-Hunt) and Michael Pitt-Rivers, were found guilty of homosexual offences and jailed.
  With his career in tatters and his private life painfully exposed, Wildeblood began his sentence a broken man, but he emerged from Wormwood Scrubs a year later determined to do all he could to change the way these draconian laws against homosexuality impacted on the lives of men like him.
  Daniel says: 「I'm incredibly proud to be part of a drama that tells such an important real-life story. Peter Wildeblood is a fascinating, complex, yet flawed character from a time when being a gay man in Britain was incredibly difficult - I can't wait to bring his tale to life for the BBC Two audience.」
  Patrick Holland, Channel Editor, BBC Two, said: 「50 years ago, it was a crime to be a gay man in the UK. Against The Law is a stunning piece that melds drama and documentary testimony to tell the story of one man, and his wider generation, as they struggled to make society accept their sexuality as non-criminal. It is brilliant to have a film that brings the authorship of Brian Fillis, the vision of director Fergus O'Brien, and the outstanding talent of Daniel Mays and cast to this important subject」
  The drama also features Mark Gatiss (Taboo, Sherlock) as Wildeblood's prison psychiatrist, Doctor Landers and Charlie Creed-Miles (Ripper Street, Peaky Blinders) as Superintendent Jones.
  Woven through this powerful drama is real-life testimony from a chorus of men who lived through those dark days, when homosexuals were routinely imprisoned or forced to undergo chemical aversion therapy in an attempt to cure them of their "condition". There is also testimony from a retired police officer whose job it was to enforce these laws, and a former psychiatric nurse who administered the so-called cures. All of these accounts serve to amplify the themes of the drama and help to immerse us in the reality of a dark chapter in our recent past, a past still within the reach of living memory.

    很久没看过这么精彩的主旋律电影了,配乐尤其出彩,而且剧情也没拖后腿,看到结局的时候内心真是五味杂陈,没什么好说的,我只希望这部电影能进明年的豆瓣年度电影榜单。

  • 仁忻畅 7小时前 :

    法庭开始非常精彩;很多社会和人性角度的思考,有破有立;印度社会能有这些反思还是蛮厉害的,300年colonisation功不可没。结尾有点仓促,瑕不掩瑜。

    “让提出问题的人沉默的政治,给讨论的人戴上手铐的政治。但无论你如何试图让他们闭嘴,无论你把他们关进哪座监狱,都会有人提出问题,而且必须有人回答。因为这个国家不是任何人的私有财产,这是我们的国家,我们的!”

    最近看的几部印度电影,杰伊比姆、一个星期四和这部,都有反转,都在批判,揭露印度社会体制问题,虽然掀起反抗的都是个人,似乎仅凭借个别人的力量是无法撼动问题的根本的,而且他们的做法现实中可行性、成功率太低,印度的问题是错综复杂的绝不仅仅是影片指出的体制问题。但总归有人在反思,哪怕这个国家糟透了。

  • 全寻菡 4小时前 :

    2021有《杰伊·比姆》,2022有《宿敌》。两部针砭时弊的印度电影都极度震撼了我。我曾在其他影评中有这样一种观点,好电影能让人从犯困看到不困,差电影可以让人从不困看到犯困

  • 卫勇 2小时前 :

    律师除了嘴炮担当好像也没有调查什么吧(调查文件不是警察给的吗),这狠话放的让我莫名其妙。

  • 弥雅爱 5小时前 :

    好奇搜了下片名,居然是印度国歌;看得出来导演很自豪,教育学术腐败政治司法丑闻无良媒体种族歧视一网打尽;普通民众容易被煽动我能理解,怎么法庭上的各路专业人士都不懂程序正义还要主角侃侃科普也是尬;但是多重反转又实在精彩,我也同意少数服从多数大多情况下都是在耍流氓的细节。

  • 初格 5小时前 :

    不剧透,太精彩!对咱们也有深刻的警示意义。

  • 卓尔云 5小时前 :

    起初以为是关于程序正义的片子,结果正邪的多次反转有点超乎预料。但学生群体真的是没看到长进,始终被情绪牵着走。总体而言是很有力量的片子,几首歌的歌词也都很好。

  • 卫燕秀 5小时前 :

    警察 司法 新闻 教育甚至民众的生命,不过都是政治的工具罢了。这电影太可怕了!

  • 东门忻乐 8小时前 :

    希望国内有一天也能拍出这样畅所欲言的电影。

  • 刀英耀 8小时前 :

    好糟糕劣质的节奏…不是好电影,哪里体现了敢讲? 就像是营销号的知识量,也就糊弄天朝电影爱好者,大清都亡了!还闭着眼。

  • 吉痴灵 4小时前 :

    也太drama了 克制点冷静的讲故事不好吗 非得整的跟印度歌舞似的那么热闹 //片头那一大段把死的活的在朝的在野的这个邦那个教的现实的精神的都摘了个干净 那么强的求生欲有些人看不见非得搁那夹枪带棒叭叭叭

  • 卫政 6小时前 :

    印度的电影,缺啥拍啥,这是最大的民主表现。

  • 市流丽 9小时前 :

    可能剧本还行,但导演真是太水了,音乐滥用,表演也差。。。

  • 旭璐 8小时前 :

    女性安全、种姓问题、民粹暴力,该片虽然看似自揭伤疤,但是主角们仍是些高种姓,敢想敢拍的前提还是高种姓掌握话语权

  • 宇文艳卉 4小时前 :

    这是一部替微弱声音,也是替国家未来呐喊的作品。

  • 云慧妍 4小时前 :

    确实很敢拍,抽丝剥茧,融合了各种深层议题与思考,有很多振聋发聩的金句,美中不足就是宝莱坞配乐依然太满,片子也拖的有点长。

  • 方文惠 5小时前 :

    片头光感谢的名单就放了2分钟,注定了这是一部不简单的片子,自编自导自演,太敢拍了,政治、阶级的遮羞布统统撤掉。第一次160分钟的片子还嫌短了。

  • 康秀逸 2小时前 :

    就为了 印度敢拍这个题材,给了五颗行星。。虽然,庭审过于幼稚了。。另外,后面结尾太过匆匆。。。
