Plot Summary:Devdas (Saigal/Barua), son of a zamindar, and Parvati (aka Paro)(Jamuna), his poor neighbour's daughter, are childhood sweethearts. Status and caste differences prevent their marriage and Devdas is sent to Calcutta while Paro is married off to an aged but rich widower. In Calcutta the hero meets the prostitute Chandramukhi (Rajkumari/Chandrabati Devi) but remorse drives him to alcohol and (after a long train journey in which he attempts to run away from himself) he comes to die in front of his true love's house.
印度电影史上非常重要的作品,影响了后来许多印度电影人。30年代看这部就够了。缺点是内涵糟糕,女一和女二都是塑造来给男主增加光环和捧臭脚的。虽被称为“反映印度整个社会”,但名不副实,有很大局限性。表演上男主表演出色和其他人不在一个层次,女主的演技很差
