David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
确实有点需要倍速，结尾也缺乏爆点，不过还真是没看过这么温情的惊悚和疯人院。另外女主算不算超级漂亮版的莫文蔚
很慢的节奏，不刺激的情节，竟然没尿点地看下来了。很多画面拍的太美了
标个惊悚，一点惊悚也没啊，这就是个低分文艺片呗。期待中的反杀剧情也没有，因为标惊悚，以为得有个反杀剧情，类似把护士们都杀了，把院长甚至是她爸放冰水里冻死，让他们也感受感受，然而，什么都没有……不要乱标签啊喂！真是服了……3星是因为主演全果，饱了一番眼福。另外…女澡堂子里真没啥可看的。
亚马逊这样的巨头，确实给中小成本舞台，但也让作品统一着色，没有毛边和性格。
很慢的节奏，不刺激的情节，竟然没尿点地看下来了。很多画面拍的太美了
证实了我关于“迪士尼音乐剧电影在豆瓣上自带评分debuff”的猜想，音乐和美术都是业界顶尖级别，各个唱段的分镜和场景设计太绝了。大道至简，本片关于“gift（天赋）”和“give（给予）”的双关阐述得非常到位——“奇迹来自于爱，来自于给予他人和自己自由”，以至于并不需要繁复的冒险打boss就能完成这个主题。由于是螺蛳壳里做道场，所以非常适合直接改编成音乐剧，但也正因为如此才让习惯了公路片套路的国内观众（尤其是上映前打分带节奏的资源党）抛出了大量低分。对“真善美”的共鸣不需要让步于“我喜欢别人都给差评的事物”的恐惧，五星。
比疯子更疯的是专制下父权社会里的“正常人”。
一堆丧心病狂的医疗💢一群自以为是的医生👎是救人还是害人心中有数吧..只要人做不到和看不到的都认为你疯了就关进去这鬼地方 是天赋和天才就是疯了吗?我看正常人也不过如此😕女主说的没错!逼疯咱就是你们这些伪科医的人还科学呢搞笑🙃信God不信Ghost..看到真的非要说是假的..好虚伪啊 到底谁才是疯子??这不已经很明显么 送进去不是帮助是虐待，那弟弟也真是下头，真不知道里面是什么情况吗?有你这种弟弟倒了八辈子霉😷还有那群人渣的下半身是装了马达吗?你们这群男人都没问题?我不信😒怎么就不抓进去呢不也是很疯狂的行为么..所以这名字不应该叫疯女人舞会叫疯男人都是渣好了 男人看女人就是当母猪母牛的..所以男人是什么东西?dog吗🤔
20211009周六，国庆换休，周六上班。故事情节比较简单，护士长帮女主从疯人院逃出来，自己被当成疯子关进去，一换一的代价是不是大了点。
这样喜剧式的结局反而拖累了电影的深度。
瘋不瘋就所謂醫師的個人意願確定？整片感覺這不是醫院更像是集中營，灰暗沉重。
You are more than the gift.最重要的不是什么天赋和魔法，而是自尊自爱自强。
布鲁诺被赶出家门十多年，家人从不谈论他，仿佛从来没有这个人。
故事矛盾冲突新意不多
通灵小姐遇到了一个好护士长，还有大样本随机双盲对照试验之前，医学很糟糕。
略无聊 女性主义该有点新意才行啊 镜头调度非常不行 梅尼总想跟女同沾点边但又不想拍完全的女通讯录
讲女性追求自由独立吗？那为什么要扯上真鬼魂呢。但我喜欢女主的表演
无法明白是非的地方 到底谁是疯子 谁是囚徒 谁是自由人 真真假假 不过掌权人说的算
一点都不惊悚 全程昏昏欲睡 故事讲的都不连贯 顶着女权的名号 什么辣鸡电影都能上榜呗
一名获得了身体思想的双向自由，另一名获得了心灵上的自由，作为女性感同身受
