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.
这个题材真的太难过了，尤其是反过来，爸爸照顾阿尔兹海默的青年女儿，爸爸真不容易妻子去世了，优秀要强的女儿这样，一个疑问，这些责任不是该美国的丈夫来负么，一开始干嘛不联系丈夫呢，也没说离婚啊，女主演技挺好尤其是车里喊不认识女儿了该怎么办那里。
这是套皮的艺术片文艺片，抱着看恐怖片的还是别看了，否则会和我一样有极大的失落，尽管片子从其他角度来说还不错
很有趣的一部电影。自然光+全程运动摄影。讲男与女，生与死，爱与恨。
真实的病痛，记忆的丧失是在掏空一个人。健康太重要了。
一个懵懂女巫的成长和自我认知之旅，用她自己残忍的方式感受着土地阳光和河流，感受着笑容和眼泪，感受着友善和敌意，感受着愉悦和愤怒，感受着性、爱情的痛苦与美好，感受着欲望与恐惧，感受着绝望与仇恨，感受着孤独，从而学习和了解着这个世界。散文诗一般的镜头语言和台词，不过中途看睡着了。
有复杂的主题（可惜整个表达没太打动我）和奇异的美感，叙事上其实也可圈可点。
电影以探讨女巫的生存方式，剥离了观众作为人类的主观视角，客观地描述了每一个人类身为独立生命个体存在的复杂性。不过除此之外，复杂的体验下似乎还铺垫着一层光靠体验和用力感受无法改变的命运。
爸爸问：是七点起床的吗？今天做了垃圾分类吗？有没有说不要这样，我爸爸会非常讨厌的？瞬间泪目，眼泪跟着流，感动又心疼。希望大家都健健康康。
我一点不觉得她可怜，而且这种跨界融合真的挺怪的
多一星给徐玄振的演技 年轻人得阿尔兹海默症感觉更痛心
女巫都要喜欢男人、生孩子，还喜欢到处可怜男人。哈哈哈，笑死了。
8。设定很棒，我看有人说像一条狗的使命，真的笑了
晃的快要yue出来的镜头+不知所云的台词+及其单调的场景，文艺恐怖片儿？I don’t get it
#你将不再孤单
對節奏舒緩的folk horror一直都不是很感冒，但是意外地很喜歡這一部（也許我應該再給《羊崽》一次機會
一个人还在盛年时就患上痴呆症，无疑比判了死刑还更为痛苦，看着自己一天天的物是人非却又无可奈何，真是最折磨人的。可是，人无论如何总是不能放弃希望，在那些艰难日子里能支撑你活下去的，唯有极其浓烈的爱，撑起你对于未来的希望，他们会让你明白活着才能有来日。以前是你来守护我，现在换我来守护你了，你的孩子已经长大了，你可以不用一直很辛苦了。
年度十佳预定
好特别的恐怖片，很新奇的观影体验，没想到会看到3年前的梦中情人felix maritaud，我太明白，我也只想紧紧把他抱在怀中
形而上的一部文艺片。以超然视角俯视众生万物，感叹自然的美且惋惜人类的脆弱与丑陋。层层虚假外皮之下却能孕育出纯真的情感。自私的基因驱动并灼烧着虚无的灵魂，爱恨交加的郁闷中结出绯红人生的果实。虽然该片主线是在描写一位女巫的嫉妒与落寞。然而中间大段大段的意识流内心独白却是在展现人生的周而复始与世代传承。坦白说，都有这么强大的能力了还成天想着结婚生娃。。。这套么是怎样的一种情操哇。。。变身后居然还能正常成长的，这挂也忒bug惹。。。
过于冗长了，处女作接近两个小时基本等同于失控，所幸凭借有趣的设定和声画出色的表现撑住了一些。
