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.
靠某本书沟通那里属实恶心到我了，我也说不上来为什么。其实整个题材都让我恶心 *shrug
应该看现场，效果会更好，虽然没有那个观看的环境，却能够对其构造的环境感同身受。
与一般情爱电影不同的是，本片聚焦做爱前的部分，它甚至都不仅是前戏，而是两个要达成“精神性交”一致的人，他们在身体和精神上的磨合过程，剧作在这点上下了大功夫。艾玛汤普森的角色目的只想做爱，而男主角只想“卖感情”（在我看来这份工作十分有趣），身体上当然也有，但我认为他的终极目的是以此达成精神上的性愉悦。两人磨合的过程，也是彼此敞开心扉、互相了解的过程，打开心结才能身心结合，或许，这才是人和人之间相处最难达成的一致吧，如今的我们仿佛只活在对方的平行时空。
太棒了！演技全程在线，当对情感状态和人物心理不甚理解时，剧情表现会一次次让你感到意外和牛逼，多理想主义的关系，多感人的交流，我们都需要对自己进行回顾和突破，最好的自己可能是自己想象不到的模样
【I watched it, I got it. I never review it.】
看不下去，忍受不了古典音乐舞台剧的调调，墨迹造作看着舞台表演的脱离现实的夸张矫情感到恶心，看了三十多分钟看不下去了，然后有600多个自觉高级的小资在哪里跪拜鼓吹附庸风雅中获得自己正当时，自己存在于高雅的这个圈子里，获得有知识有想象的文化归属地位，有品位的高等人的自我确认标签，无异于圈内自嗨，让人感到那种中世纪贵族故作风雅的那种恶心感。
4.4/支持所有女性性解放（性解放不等于性开放，望周知。）更支持她们都可以在最简单直接的方式中拥有自己的快乐。这剧本真的太会了，演员更是十分到位，一间小小的房间把所有复杂的东西都呈现了出来，艾玛婶真的棒的。但是请放心，这并不是鸭的平均水平，一个足够好称得上足够贵的价格的鸭，至少也是一个好的心理咨询师。「也许比起你年轻时的貌美，更有人爱你备受岁月‘摧残’的容颜」
这真的很可爱啊，虽然绝对会有很多争议，不过也正是因为还不错到需要寄予厚望。有些问题被提出已经值得夸奖了，哪怕2022了
电影很好，但是如果现实里碰到爱和你聊天的鸭，快跑ε=ε=ε=ε=ε=┌(;￣◇￣)┘，不仅骗你钱，命都给你搞丢。
太好哭了又太好笑了。疫情第十四个月的第一场百老汇演出，适逢911周年纪念日，灾难仿佛隔着时间长河呼应。意外总是突如其来，「人类在灾难面前可以创造感动」显得温情可爱和弥足珍贵。
缘分天注定，有缘才相遇。
女性主义就是认识自我，意识觉醒，完成突破的过程。两个人从对话和互动中形成互文，Emma thompson的演技真是出神入化
这调度也太牛逼了吧，一群人几张椅子几件衣服讲述一个5天里元素多到爆的故事，期待改成迷你剧
太棒了！演技全程在线，当对情感状态和人物心理不甚理解时，剧情表现会一次次让你感到意外和牛逼，多理想主义的关系，多感人的交流，我们都需要对自己进行回顾和突破，最好的自己可能是自己想象不到的模样
艾玛姨赛高！
姐姐真是可爱又勇敢，能有这样的电影才是自由的地方。
“你想看到一个broken whore吗？现在你看到了。 ”人类的本质是孤独，不管外在表现的多么优雅、克制，不管对方能给予多大的愉悦，内心最深处的裂痕终是需要自己去粉刷，然后和解。
汤普森女士演技太强，可惜现实中不会有这么又帅又温柔的🦆
如果我也能点leo，才不会去关心他真名是什么 real life过得怎么样，只会一门心思赚钱确保自己能经常点他
「享受身体是天赋人权」的主题很有意思，遗憾的是，落脚点又是正确但无聊的「家庭」，所以从本质上，这并不是一部勇敢的电影。
