後現代激情
Dev. D
改編自印度經典愛情悲劇，自小青梅竹馬的Dev與Paro，有緣無
分，Paro更被迫委身作填房。傷心欲絕的Dev放縱自己，流連歌舞
妓Chanda的懷抱。由劇情、造型到歌曲，《DEV. D》都有著為人熟
悉的《胭脂淚》影子，導演Anurag超越常規，大膽地將新舊價值觀
的冲突放大， 戲謔寶萊塢歌舞片之餘，跨越偉大的愛情故事，拼
貼出後現代激情篇，將觀眾帶進入文學欣賞新國度 。
A Generation-X take on a classic story, DEV. D moves the original’s
early-1900s setting to contemporary times, changing a story of
tradition, class struggle and true love to one brimming with jealousy,
pride, and primal, youthful urges. Affluent Dev (Abhay Deol) debases
himself when his planned marriage to childhood sweetheart Paro
(Mahie Gill) goes awry, turning instead to pragmatic prostitute Chanda
(Kalki Koechlin). Director Anurag Kashyap adapts the classic Bengali
novel Devdas in a manner you’ve never seen before. Stylish and daring,
DEV. D is a firm, adventurous step forward for Bollywood.
