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.
虽然每一步的逃狱都不能让人眼前一亮，但是好在人物塑造的都很鲜明，暖暖的兄弟情真让人羡慕。
过程中没有感觉无聊，尚佳。
搞不懂陈豪这个新一哥到底出来干嘛，一会大张旗鼓要搞变革，一会被下药直接退出剧情，也太随意了吧。
肥花逆天的唱功弥补了演技的欠缺，成片质量可以算得上是传记片里的上乘。之前对AF的音乐略有涉猎，所以对片中出现的hits还算熟悉，因而也更能进一步了解这些音乐背后的故事，了解何谓灵魂乐。除创作历程之外还展现了她对黑人平权和社会慈善公益的贡献，愈加拜服于AF的伟大，respect！
歌和肥花的歌声是亮点，成片一般，肥花还有机会奥提吗
如果从三部篇来看，还不算太差，作为粤语片，还算做得花心思。
声哥挂掉那是真演技，最惨的是现在除了演贱男，已经没什么好戏留给他了
我投票看，贺俊入狱前叱咤风云，刀疤哥爱情戏，逃狱兄弟出狱后一起搞事业～要求就一个，开开心心，整整齐齐～～
比较标准的商业片。“法律会惩罚你”的结尾大无语，高潮戏比较疲软，虽然全片时间不长节奏也算快，但没什么记忆点。
整部电影都是在靠主角姐姐的脸在撑着，电影总是在该干什么事的时候不干什么事。
结尾是会议转现实吧，黄祥兴大腿的枪伤瞬间好了可以打篮球
Af奶奶的前半生，也是经历了很多苦难的女人
一群老男人玩票的戏，推荐。刀疤如果再不领盒饭估计都没合适的囚衣穿了，还是那句话，吴卓羲演不了坏人
虽然剧情很俗套，但前80分钟的情节编排很紧张刺激，爽快而流畅。但最后10分钟的收尾我一脸懵逼。女主的师傅为什么要选择同归于尽，在必胜的情况下，单杀之后逃跑不好吗？女主和杀手男一号中门对狙，为什么男杀手死了？不说女主受伤战斗力减半，单是她说她累了她想要平静，她就不应该活了啊？再说说电影整体，本片的女主也叫安娜，让我想起了吕克贝松的《安娜》，都是女主的电影，但相比之下明显落了下风。首先是输在故事性上，其实是输在女主的颜值上。综合来讲，3星，还不错，可以一看。
李美琪好像老了一些，毕竟四十好几个的人了，不过动作身手还是如此的凌利。看到跟反派手下打着打着就干炮，我当场说了三个fuck，尼玛，这编剧是吃翔脑子吃坏了吗？最后的大boss假死也是莫名其妙？浪费了那么好的动作场面，唉！
港产片就别太介意逻辑编剧了，拍摄手法镜头切换感觉很精彩，全程无尿点，笑点也不少，穿插得还行，吴卓羲的角色定位奇怪没啥发挥空间，黄德斌演技真不错，谭耀文根本不适合当大佬，就是天生的喜剧角色，刀疤哥死得好冤啊，前狱长这心狠手辣程度也是太夸张了，可能有人没注意到这是发生在96年的（CCTV时间），所以劫持人质逃跑成功的可能性还是有的，要不然换现在这年代，香港这小地方还能逃去哪？😂
李美琪再能扛，也扛不住这老套还没咋捋顺的剧本。所有角色都不知道在干嘛，不是演员的问题，而是剧本的锅。
剧本太糟糕了，流水账一样毫无重点，能把af奶奶这么传奇的人生拍得这么难看也是意想不到。
Af奶奶的前半生，也是经历了很多苦难的女人
演员阵容没得说，只是剧情我不想说太多，只能看个热闹
