Set in a small Quebec town in the late-1920′s, this emotional drama follows the life and exploits of Celeste Beaumont, a talented young pianist who gains local celebrity at the town movie theater for her gifts as a silent film pianist. Awkward Pierre Blaudell is her biggest fan and eventually marries her. Shortly after this she bears his son, Pierre, who joins the army. She insists on joining him at the base and his meddlesome, snooty parents insist she give them her son. Pierre is killed in the war, and Celeste flees to New York where she finds steady employment as a jazz pianist. She finds a life-long companion with a black musician and chronicles her experiences in a diary that she passes on to her son after he grows up. Her son becomes a painter and once his own son, Antoine, is grown, reads him the story of Celeste, the youth’s grandmother. Intrigued, Antoine heads to the Big Apple in hopes of finding her.
This movie is an emotional drama about how Antoine, played beautifully by François Méthé, discovers the details of his heritage. This film won many awards in Canada and at Cannes in 1988. François Méthé, who was about 11-years-old, never acted again after this movie.
From IMDb:
A quiet painter, separated from his wife for a year, receives a suitcase in the mail from his mother, whom he hasn’t seen since infancy. He believes she abandoned him to his wealthy, paternal grandparents. The suitcase contains mementos and a diary, a long letter to him, written over the years, with details of her youth, her first job as a pianist at a cinema, the coming of talkies, her marriage, and how he came to live with his grandparents. As he reads through the materials and her story comes to life, his son Antoine, who’s about 10 or 12, tries to break through his father’s silence and sorrow by taking matters into his own hands.
作为肯爷精神股东，这个电影感觉悬疑感比东方快车更足，前面的男的甚至被吓得从椅子上跳起来大叫一声。
与预期有些不太一样：第一个故事和小时候科教频道的《怪兽档案》蜥蜴人一模一样，第二个丧尸惊魂夜，第三个是我最喜欢的一个：印尼科学家妄图人机合体，主角第一视角逃亡特别有代入感，第四个…我麻了，抗日剧诚不欺我-兔子雷都出来了…怪物形象和刀锋战士2那个吸血鬼如出一辙；主线就是一队士兵进入一伙邪教团体，结尾有点出乎意料，但我是猜到了😌
拍得像剧本杀，就是走个过程，每个人都依次出来挨个查一遍，最后再结案，感觉整个过程不够紧凑也不够缜密，没有破案的参与感和沉浸感，有点断裂不够连贯，开头和结尾有些莫名其妙 中间稀里糊涂。
失败的改编。全程都在强调“爱”反而让人有些倒胃口。
原版看完让我不敢坐船
景和人都很美，演技也是各个在线，这类片子就是谁都知道结局，就看讲故事的水平和演的如何，但作为悬疑类，破案的过程反而并不精彩而且无趣，然后波洛甲板上逛一圈就破案了？节奏上也不好，前面说了一大堆，后面破案草草了事，这个自导自演的波洛还准备搞多少部
选角都挺成功的。每次人物要开始泪盈双眼了就一直怼大特写太没必要了。再这样下去感觉肯尼斯布拉纳离被网暴不远了。
阿加莎的书我毫不夸张的说我看过全套，这个故事我也看过n个版本，我不知道是谁突发奇想想要尝试一些改变，但是敢打波洛胡子的主意，how dare you???
毫无疑问肯爵爷是个波洛迷，在众多影视版追求“探案”大主题时，肯爵爷和BBC都不约而同的为这位举世闻名的波洛探长安插感情戏和心理戏份，追求人物的塑造，但却丢掉了波洛原本的模样，纯纯的跑偏了路，而现实口碑也表示了，观众更喜欢那个滑稽、博学多才的小老头，而不是苦大深仇的大胡子保镖。影片和上部一样，服化道上下了功夫，质感十足，但缺点也一致，缺乏探案剧的核心“推理与侦破”，完全像是过家家一般，同时与四十多年前的老版相比，片中的人物无趣且滥情。肯爵爷自己确实演过瘾了，但观众受罪了。
铺垫怎么这么长 连波罗的大胡子也特地前后呼应一把 牺牲了最喜欢的群审戏 赶时间是吧？
太无聊了！和同导演前几年的《东方快车谋杀案》一脉相承。一部能把半个影院的观众都快看睡着的“悬疑”作品，只有美景和美女值得一看。85分的原作，80分的卡司，70分平均演技，最后变成50分的作品。求求肯导放过阿婆的作品吧。

在杜比全景声厅看了个风光片。居然想去埃及了。加朵入场好浮夸的演技。
肯尼斯布拉纳的导演水平和他在《哈利波特与密室》里演的洛哈特教授一样华而不实。PS，而且他和洛哈特一样自恋！不停给自己加戏，加破坏叙事节奏且毫无意义的特写！
食人魔一头乱发 胡子拉渣 还有双下巴的样子是怎么勾引到盖尔加朵这样的黄金女郎的 我不李姐
这个版本的波洛就是自大自满，政治正确，自嘲？恶心得一匹！本以为如此琐碎的线索和根本逻辑不起来的逻辑会是不一样的结局，结果结局他妈的是一模一样的啊！真的就有人会傻逼到邀请全是要杀害自己的来参加而且还是蜜月？改的什么逼东西？其实如果凶手改成朋友的话还能自洽一点，因为存在震惊，但是最后故意煽情，完完全全感受不到任何的爱，这个波洛除了会骄傲叫自己的名字和用可恶的眼神害死些无辜的人还能干些啥？最后推理明明白白一坨屎！
虽然将原著里的二次行凶分成了三次，导致波洛的后续行为产生了诸多不合理的bug，但对于初次观看这个故事的观众，不细想的情况下也不会影响观感。其次就是最后的推理过程实在过于仓促，节奏的把控算不上高明。
我看过尼罗河上的惨案，也看过东方快车，不止一次不止一个版本，在我知晓所有剧情的情况下，肯导还是通过乱七八糟的叙述，奇葩的人物改编，以及完全前言不搭后语的逻辑，让我看不明白他在拍什么。什么风景美，我宁可去看discovery
特效助力的风光片 翻拍节奏可以接受 就是没想到尼罗河也能有惊吓镜头；公映有删减
为什么这个完全没有能力的自恋白男导演一直有这么好的资源啊！！◡ ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ ┻━┻
