Jack, an Alaskan ex patriot, returns to his Fairbanks home following the death of his wife. He is full of anger, guilt and depression. His reclusive lifestyle is challenged when he meets a graduate student who is investigating the affects of the mining operations on a local water source. The film was shot on location in Fairbanks. The cinematography is beautiful and genuine. There is nothing fake or stereotypical about the portrayal of the subarctic summer and lifestyle. Filmed during in mid-June during the longest day of the year, the cinematographer and the director make excellent use of the midnight sun and the seasonal beauty unique to this part of the world. For this Fairbanksan, it was refreshing to see a film where Interior Alaska is portrayed with such integrity. Daniel Ponickly, who stars as Jack delivers a good performance as the widower who is lost in his grief. Ponickly also wrote the screenplay. This is the second full length feature film for director Zoe Quist. Her first film, Raw Cut, a thriller was also filmed in a panoramic environment -Dubois, WY- she made excellent use of the natural beauty of the environment. Through these two different stories, Quist proved her directing talent and ability. Newcomer Carrie Baker, and veteran Mischa Barton give very good performances. I would have liked to see more of Barton. Syd Wilder, is very convincing as the waitress with a heart of gold and a body for sin as are very convincing in their bad boy roles Jonathan Bennett and Levi Ben-Israel. Billy Zane is well cast as a UAF School of Geophysics professor, Toly Ramirez wrote the score for Mining for Ruby, as he did the haunting music for Raw Cut. The length of the film is 95 minutes and this writer found them to be a very enjoyable way to rediscover his home town.
在疫新冠大环境下的小电影 法国电影特有的轻松
三星半。疫情还在继续，封城的那些日子却恍若一梦。
伯恩跟14年那部电影里面的角色形象基本一样，感觉在看续集，而且还不如那部搞笑
法式喜剧小品太欢乐了，上一次笑得这么密集还是《摄影机不要停》。结尾的纪念温情不煽情，刚刚好！
莫名地喜欢❤️画风，气氛，那种安静的感觉最喜欢。福山润真真实力派，咬字超清，又稳。
正在隔离，内心的焦虑，困苦，无聊，紧张似乎有了宣泄口，情绪叠加的突破，从一开始保洁得了新冠病毒，她的丈夫代替她管理大楼，到最后以她为收尾，这个点落得好。
Franchement j'aime pas 好俗的小品
匆忙又充满喜剧色彩。同一空间下的社区，线索使空间-家庭-人物-关系搭建，促成事件的开展，所有一切顺理成章，最好的生活就是现在，谁都不知道下一秒什么事情会发生。
不得不佩服法国人的浪漫、幽默和娱乐，让烦人的新冠和抗疫变得这样温情和喜感。不同的视角，不同的体会，不同的收获。我们习惯了宏大叙事，其实换成这样的角度，效果更好，因为更贴近个体。微就是伟，小就是大。#童行健谈#
看完觉得还不错，配乐镜头感，还有演员都挺好的
把隔离拍出了温情和浪漫，误解、执念、疏离在病毒的威胁下被抹除，留下的只有美好，即便只是电影里。
各种cliche和想象得到的点。。刻意想搞笑。。哎。下饭都不行
但是剧情上面稍微有些硬的部分 还好不至于破坏整个架构的协调
疫情之下能想到的各种反应集合，好故事在特殊的背景下变得更好看。
新冠命题的现实题材电影，其实不一定非得太过沉重，本片能依然保持法国电影人的诙谐与浪漫，这点还挺难能可贵的。笑点来自形形色色人物身上所展现出的抗疫态度和生活状态，有夸张的，有讽刺的，但都是真实的。泪点则在于，全球疫情肆虐的当下，全人类的失去以及对人性的体现。 * 如果不同家庭的交集再丰富密切些就更好了，角色之间的结绳还不够紧，这也使得最后一场戏冲击泪腺的力度就弱了点。
“我说生活依旧是美好的，要是我们同一天出生就更好了，那样我们会同一天去世，大家都不会难过…”😭向所有受过苦的人致敬
那些正在经历和经历的人们都可以看看。。也许是自己生活在巴黎。。那些每个傍晚和邻居们拍手唱歌的日子。。那个对面总给我问好的白发爷爷。。但既然是疫情就总是有人会受伤。。我继续在巴黎呆着
对法国疫情期间的社会乱想批判得还是不够深刻
电影更像是平淡的流水账，讲述着几个家庭的故事，故事里的角色都有鲜明的缺点，有人对疫情太过紧张，有人大男子主义，有人出轨，有人违规出门……
除了神经过敏的马丁其他法国人确实防疫意识淡薄……
