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.
爱猫人士和本尼粉丝一整个大无语，选择编年体和旁白是导演的平庸和偷懒，人物的所有重要环节全部语焉不详，包括童年阴影和日后疾病的源起、灵感的触发、绘画风格的转变，更别说标题里的那个“电光”了，依赖出色演员去演绎孤独天才，又制造出混乱的意识流，最好看的是片尾曲的画
女主给男主录磁带的时候，为了掩饰自己正在做和想让对方做的事情而改变人称来叙述的傲娇太可爱了。
前半段寫階級差異下的outsiders互相扶持互相救贖的愛情故事相當感人，後半段開始逐漸平庸流水帳。有嘗試提及在維多利亞時期的女性地位問題但只是蜻蜓點水，其他如原生家庭問題也如是（有幾個片段出戲到《小婦人》），甚至片尾對於「電力」的解釋以帶出所謂主題也是如此地生硬。畫面不錯，巧妙地利用4:3比例和油畫感的攝影讓觀眾進入電影的時空裡，夫妻二人在湖前的鏡頭美到叫人難忘。
不可能存在的女朋友与无法真实存在的姐姐，多少显得有点虚无，这或许也说明了奇迹为什么会叫做奇迹
穷困山村有志青年凭借数学天份走出山村的故事。本片距离「优秀」的几处不足：少年过于轻易取得的胜利，虽然扣题并突出了戏剧性，但消减了可信度并降低了感染力；剧本对个人心结、家庭悲剧和村民困境等几条线索的排布主次不清；韩影惯常的表演方式对于励志传记片来说未免过于浮夸和廉价。
猫和人类一样孤独而勇敢。爱猫人士必看，electrical life所言非虚。前半段比后半段更好，本尼真是表演天才，太动人了。
前二十分钟我几乎以为我要失望了。但看到后面不得不说，我不知道为什么福田知盛这么会拍/写精神疾病（这句话听起来大概过分可我确实这么想），可能和他自己也是bipolar也有关系。画面和配色比千篇一律的韦斯安德森要好很多，这是本部影片最惊喜的地方。剧本有点拉跨但我觉得整体上还是很有他自己的风格（迷幻+暧昧不明+疯狂）。熟脸很多。猫咪很可爱，有不落俗套的喜剧点。人生就是如此，是纯真和复杂，喜剧和悲恸，理智和疯狂之间的游走的混合体。
韩式催泪弹，上半截笑来不行 下半截哭来不行
打光和景色很美很童话，但是男主那张脸老是出戏到梵高。
三星半 / 看到最后那些画很熟悉，搜了一下是在cat puzzle里经常见到的图案
差不多每年都看一部英国传记电影，创作模式太单调，已经审美疲劳了
画面太美了 光线都一直暖暖的感觉 不断的感叹Claire Foy好美
在色彩风格上确实让我感到惊喜，经典学院派的比例的电影画幅，带有年代质感的镜头美得一塌糊涂。但旁白和后半部故事的剧情还是没有让我太喜欢。
去年看的，忘记标了。精神病人关怀月后选片单。女性工作是人类幸福的必要条件。
喵星人铲屎官必看！孤独的人生里还好有猫！一幅画面唯美的英伦童话 片尾的每一幅画都如此心动💓
姐姐不存在的反转很牛逼。林允儿真好看。无他
與日劇相比有小小失望，但能看到二人幸福快樂，仍然感覺良好。長崎篇比漫畫來得更少篇幅，見家長篇節奏上亦有小小怪，但都滿足到粉絲的心！
明明不长却觉得好漫长。前半段和妻子的部分好看，虽然很像在看the theory of everything. 整个就好惨哦。
林允儿在电影前期有些发型就很符合电影里的青春感 但大多数还是看着会突兀
爸爸和儿子都不要再恨自己了
