学习如何在日益拥挤的星球上生存也许是我们人类的终极挑战，但有一个地方，拥有的世界人口六分之一印度，人们却特别适应生活在这么拥挤的土地上。这个系列高清纪录片将带我们进入印度最密集的地区加尔各答和孟买，了解这里人们的生活现状及生存压力。
BBC 2012年播出，用3集记录印度的底层人如何在人多地少的环境中工作。印度现在有人口 12亿，占世界的六分之一，每个家庭都有很多孩子，对于穷人来讲，这可是一个很大的负担，看看印度人是如何在他们的国土上为了生活奋斗的。
Learning how to survive on an increasingly crowded planet is probably our ultimate challenge. But there is one place, home to over a sixth of the world's population, which is already making a good shot at adapting: welcome to India. This observational series casts aside the usual preconceptions about the sub-continent, and lets a few of India's 1.2 billion show how their world really works.
With astonishing access into the densest districts of Kolkata and Mumbai, it celebrates the impressive resourcefulness, resilience and absolute pragmatism of those living and working there, and reveals the psyche needed to get ahead in the biggest of crowds.
Part 1.
This episode follows two main characters as they employ all their ingenuity to carve out a home. With more people moving to cities in India than anywhere else on earth, securing that place you can call home is vital for nurturing your family's future.
Part 2.
Johora started out as a rag-picker, but through building a bottle recycling business on a railway embankment, she has big ambitions for her family of seven kids. And it is not just small waste. Kanye uses a blowtorch to cut up ships discarded by the rest of the world, helping satisfy India's thirst for steel. And Ashik buys up beef fat from the abattoir, and proudly renders it down to make tallow. It looks disgusting, even before he is plagued by a maggot infestation. But this thrifty use of 'waste' may well be destined for your soap or cosmetics.
Part 3.
With India destined to become the most populous nation on earth by 2026, you have got to be highly tactical in your search for a better life. It is not just about you and your dreams today - it is about the family over generations to come. Prakash and Mangesh are brothers in their early twenties from an illegal settlement surrounded by the buzz of downtown Mumbai. Prakash is deckhand on a yacht while striving to realise his dream and launch a Bollywood career. But his family make it clear his sole purpose is to earn enough to fund in their joint future: his brother Mangesh's course in software engineering. Swapan, a merchant in a hectic fish market, works so hard for his family's future that his wife knows he is ruining his health. And Sujit, who crafts disposable clay tea cups in Kolkata, hardly dares dream of seeing his family hundreds of miles away.
像滨口龙介那样开始（ Drive My Car的手语🤚），像李沧东那样结束（Peppermint Candy的小白花❀）。
因为从父亲的角度去展开叙述，所以父权确实占篇幅，电影的主题名字也是父亲嘛，所以可以理解为冠军的父亲也不失偏差，与儿女的矛盾，与商业的矛盾，与人种的矛盾，父亲面临的更生动，电影也展现得很全面，是一部中规中矩的片子了。
特么不是他女儿的成就梦想，是他的成就梦想，他通过了什么成功？嗯，反正想不太明白。各种骚操作，不过他成了，还冷藏都成了，所以他就是对的。
不容易啊，靠网球实现了阶级跨越，真的是女儿争气，理查德的策略也是对的，青少年时期接受教育是必须的，利用学校的钱实现教育训练两不误，算盘打得好好。
啊这...............................................................................................
这个片子算是挤进奥斯卡的片子里比较离谱的，我看了一圈没看懂Richard哪里牛逼了，感觉成功全靠大小威天资过人，黑人照这么个方法鸡娃估计成功一次背后会有999个家庭在捡垃圾，反而是母亲的角色很慈爱，堪称伟大女性；那天不知道在哪里看的很有意思，说黑人（成功）靠奋斗，白人靠偏执，当黑人开始偏执，白人开始奋斗（Hillbilly Elegy）观众就不容易relate了；感觉是CODA请的陪衬
很像 摔跤吧爸爸，好看，不紧不慢地记录着一家人的经历，执着倔强的父母带着听话的女儿们，从ghtto到top society，一步一步，也曾有着屈辱的过去，但仍坚持挺过来。父亲是个洗脑专家，自己可能有些盲目自信，但孩子们却是真的自信啊！话说这个电影里父亲曾遭受流氓无赖的毒打，那种感觉有多难受，可是颁奖礼上，smith却对主持人大打出手，实在是己所不欲施于人啊
国王理查德，培养出了一个战神，一个将军。现在的年轻人，可能不知道当年的小威有多恐怖。
特别普通的一部奥斯卡制作，连结尾专门选了一场大威没赢的比赛都很刻意。 人家姐妹俩本身不比这电影好看。
夜晚的取光很有现实感，白日的取光就总像是带着滤镜似的梦幻感。
一个人的意志力和信仰到底有多强悍，才能stick to the plan几十年不变!?
这不是励志影片而是成功学的宣传片，全片你看到的不是大小威的努力与拼搏，而是她们的父亲理查德满嘴跑火车，传销般的游说和洗脑网球教练，兜售他的成功学，“骗”他们给女儿免费教学。然而最后女儿们的成功似乎又与他的“控制”没有直接关系，给人的感觉是她们自己的天赋异禀与“迷之自信”才是关键。
鸡娃成功后说什么都是对的 娘亲在厨房的骂戏👍 ego大到离谱…最后的真人录像让我看完想看大小威打网球
从本片来看，这个“计划”得以成功，更多的在于女儿们对父亲的相信和自身的努力。
另外，两个女孩对于黑人种族的意义也只是在嘴上跑火车而已，强行生化主题的套路。
这位理查德的成功真的是侥幸
当然经历过实在的历史记录，还是说，影像不过是为自身的成功学证明合法性，这背后又是彼岸社会问题、泛滥思潮的何等体现呢？！
精彩的故事，就是可惜电影哪怕有两个半小时，对这种传奇故事来说还是太短了。父母两个角色的刻画都非常优秀，父亲自然不用说，能获奖就说明了大家的认可。母亲的角色刻画也是非常优秀，虽然戏份不多，但少数的几次爆发都展现出了她的性格、能力和视野。
写给每一个即将看这部电影的人。一，这不是部励志电影，这是部真实传记电影。二，当你觉得理查德是主角的时候，不要忘记他的女儿和妻子比他更伟大。三，当你觉得理查德很糟糕而他身边的人都如此完美时，不要忘记理查德经历的一切和他付出的一切。总结，理查德身边的人都是天使，而他本人是一位凡人勇者。
