Set on the cusp of the 19th century in Delhi before the British ruled in that region, the drama depicts the fortunes of the residents of Beecham House, an imposing mansion surrounded by acres of exotic woods and pristine lawns. Tom Bateman (Vanity Fair, Jekyll and Hyde) takes the role of enigmatic, soulful John Beecham, a handsome former soldier who has purchased the magnificent mansion, Beecham House, to begin a new life with his family. Wealthy and distinguished, John has witnessed profiteering and exploitation during his time with the controlling East India Company and has resolved to conduct his business as a trader in a more equitable manner. Determined to escape his previous life, John appears haunted by his past, but is inspired to become an honourable member of the region’s trading community. In spite of John’s good intentions his life is shrouded in mystery and when he arrives at the house with an ‘olive-skinned‘ child named August and two Indian nursemaids, Chanchal (Shriya Pilgaonkar) and Maya (Trupti Khamkar), it causes speculation and gossip amongst the servants that he may be the boy’s father. One of the Indian nursemaids, the beautiful Chanchal, is overly protective and particularly fond of the child. Could she be John’s lover and the mother of August? Lesley Nicol (Downton Abbey) is John’s robust, interfering mother Henrietta who has travelled from England to India to stay with her son. She is accompanied by a young family friend Violet, played by Bessie Carter (Les Miserables) who she is determined to help form a union with John. The pair are accompanied by an old friend of John’s, Samuel Parker, played by Marc Warren (Safe, Hustle) who has also left the East India Company and has returned to India for a fresh start. Samuel helps John to find his brother Daniel who he has not seen for 10 years. John convinces Daniel, Leo Suter, (Victoria) to leave the East India Company and join him at Beecham House. Gregory Fitoussi (Mr Selfridge, Spiral) plays General Castillon, a French mercenary working for the Emperor at a time when the French are challenging the East India Company for India. Castillon is suspicious of John and his motives and conspires to stop John being granted a trading licence. Adil Ray (Citizen Khan, Ackley Bridge) is John’s neighbour Murad Beg who dislikes General Castillon intensely and agrees to help John secure a trading licence. Murad’s daughter, Roshanara, (Kanika Kapur) has an English governess Margaret Osborne, played by Dakota Blue Richards (Endeavour) whose beauty and intelligence catches John’s attention. However, when beautiful Chandrika (Pallavi Sharda) arrives at Beecham House with her entourage she is shown to luxurious guest quarters and immediately insists on seeing August. What secrets does Chandrika bring with her to Beecham House?
and额…这个问题其实很好解决，就是身体可以有无数个，意识只能持续有一个，一个时间只允许一个，那么所谓的克隆，只是同一个意识在不同的没有灵魂的躯体间切换罢了。
黑哥儿的演技真不是盖的！！！内心脆弱敏感易破防的人儿一定会在片尾潸然泪下，但是女主的这颜值...让我实在缺乏了与黑哥儿共情的能力……
没什么感觉，没什么共鸣。硬件还是不错的，没法打动我我就没有高分了
影片的视觉调性冷静克制，后半段甚至有些blue，所有的装修及道具设计也是非常苹果风，大赞。而剧情来讲，核心点是 就算我要死了那么我要不要克隆一个我继续陪爱的人，当然要啊 即使穿帮了，她怎么会不懂你的用心？所以我有点不能理解片中男主的纠结。另，开篇巧克力，又甜又巧，人物也立住了，妙啊
一直在淡淡的节奏，偶尔露出来的抗争与激烈，其他都是平平淡淡。如果，真的有这样的一天，你会也这样看似淡淡的来做这样挣扎的决定吗，让那个非我的我成为我，融入世界，而真实的自己，安静的等待离开世界，无人知晓。
看着珍爱的它们离去，却无能为力，这就是挽歌吧。
是一个值得探讨的科幻点子没错，可是很多戏剧冲突源自不合理的剧情安排，这么一想就略出戏，影片渲染的情绪显得略矫情……另外感觉是不是有一批小时候喜欢看王家卫片子的老美长大当上导演了…
披着科幻片外衣的伦（文）理（艺）片 熬过头一个小时你会收获一段媲美惊悚片的窒息观感和结尾一轮眼泪暴击
2022022类似于前些年的《升级》，这种探讨人类伦理和科技之间的针锋相对的软科幻才是有滋有味。社会化的我可以给家人以交代，能做出这样的选择至少在本质上他是个善良的人
是很老的议题了，但是仍然好看，铺展得很细腻，演得也很有说服力
1. Apple TV 终于开始发力，做出一些有质量的作品了。
通过传输记忆，重新回忆一路走来的种种，猛然惊醒仿佛瞬移一般。看着自己代替自己与家人交流，越是熟练越是心疼，只有小狗发现了掌中痣的秘密。最后一次取下孩子的姓名，如爱人般交接象征身份的戒指，重新肩负使命完成最后的陪伴。
親人離開的悲痛也是人生體驗……
所以自己一个人孤独的死去 就不用去做这些思想斗争了 虽然很温暖的科幻主题 但是在该哭的地方总觉得差临门一脚 我都没哭出来 just感动 也许是因为演员的过儿吧...法海的moon river好好听 其他bgm也好棒 7.5
他家人如果知道真相后会心碎死。永远不知道真相才可以
天鹅挽歌是个科幻片 人们总是对未知的事物充满想象力 对已知的事物束手无策 剧情老套却令人动容（镜头舒适 风景绝美）
只要是和克隆人技术有关，伦理是一个绕不开去的话题。影片的观点或许就是：替代者本身就完全是自己的DNA复制的，当本体即将死去，那么用克隆体继续生存下去是除了对自己本体不公以外，其余各方面来说都是最完美的解决方案。
在我眼前随风而逝
