Synopsis
Do-seong (Yoo Min) is a child monk who lives at a small mountain temple with the head monk (Byeon Ki-jong), learning the teachings of Buddha. He becomes attached to a young widow (Choi Eun-hee) who comes to pray at the temple, and the childless widow entreats the head monk to let her raise Do-seong as her own son. Conflict ensues when Do-seong's real mother (Kim Seon-young) appears, but she leaves the temple for the sake of her son's future. On the day the widow is to take the child down from the mountain, the head monk discovers that Do-seong has killed a bird by ensnaringit in a trap and decides not to let the boy go into the secular world. When Do-seong finds out that his real mother has been to the temple, he sets out to find her.
Notes
"A film that has garnered recognition for its cinematography and direction by eliminating sentimentality and unaffectedly capturing the quiet life of a mountain temple. A Hometown in Heart demonstrates the camera technique and directorial skill of movies that appeared after the liberation of Korea."
A Hometown in Heart, adapted from playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung), was hailed upon its release as "a masterpiece that marked a new pinnacle in Korean moviemaking after the liberation." Eschewing new-school sentimentality to quietly express a boy's longing for maternal love, the film unfolds the everyday lives of three generationsthe head monk, a young monk, and a little child monkagainst the backdrop of a quiet temple in the mountains. The long shots utilized by director of cinematography Han Hyung-mo to capture the beautiful scenery of the mountain temple from a distance received great critical acclaim at the time. Also, each of the film's characters is convincingly portrayed through the skillful direction of Yoon Yong-kyu. In particular, the scene which expresses Do-seong's desperate yearning for a mother's love and his birth mother's past visit to the temple by combining them into a dream sequence reveals deep consideration for articulating story and emotion via a compressed visual grammar without tending toward sentimentalism. The movie's final scene, in which Do-seong awakens from his dream and sets off down the path in search of his mother, is both touching and beautiful. The film also features Choi Eun-hee, in the part of the young widow who warmly embraces Do-seong with her love, in one of her first roles.
Afterword:
- Lee Kang-su, writing under the pseudonym of Kwak Il-byeong, first adapted playwright Ham Se-deok's A Little Monk (Dong-seung) into a screenplay, which was then shot for the silver screen with additional embellishments by the director.
镜头调度和几场歌舞表演都不错，但观感很糟糕，其一是西区故事（罗密欧与朱丽叶）这个剧本放到现今看老派又守旧，观众不仅无法共情还会满脸问号..其二是男女主的演绎都令人失望，唱、演双重糟糕。
丰富的场景，精致的转场，但影片的具象化太消解舞台调度的那种铿锵力度了，Rita不亏是老将，全片最佳是somewhere。
乏善可陈，除了制作很精美，斯皮尔伯格的调度很出色，这故事可实在接受无能。俩主角哪有配角出彩，男主角看着有点笨重，Riff多带派。
把罗密欧与茱丽叶的苦命鸳鸯爱情悲剧放到二十世纪纽约贫民窟街区帮派斗争的背景下，脱胎于百老汇同名音乐剧，去舞台化改编，严格贯彻电影的写实性，人物拥有了更广阔的视野与活动空间。除了披上精致的美术外衣，新版并未以现代眼光带来全新解读，仍是那套陈旧的价值观。作为歌舞片，核心元素也算不上出彩，几乎没有太抓耳的歌曲唱段和吸睛的舞蹈编排，男女主角缺乏层次的表演更是尴尬到影响观感。斯皮尔伯格这位好莱坞顶级工匠的场面调度功力依然如教科书般精准老辣，但纵有强大的幕后班底坐镇与名导光环加持也只是堪堪及格而已，这明显落后于时代的老掉牙故事确实没多大翻拍必要，倒是青少年犯罪、移民融入、族裔冲突等社会问题在当下具备一定现实意义。近些年掀起的集体怀旧热潮暴露了好莱坞原创力衰退，本届奥斯卡七项提名，也就技术奖项可以竞争下。
而深思人物之间的情感，与其说托尼与玛丽亚的爱情是主线，倒不如说他俩才是表象情感。更深的情感则是那几个男人的，这并非腐眼看人基，而是稍微思索几秒钟便能意识到这是顺性别（白人）直男为自己打造的“Men for men”的环境，同时也是一个枷锁。所以到最后奇诺的行为既“合理”也落了俗。
抵不过男女主颜值带来的伤害（对不起不应该颜控）
比1961年电影版好一点。歌舞场景很漂亮，最有魅力的角色依然是Anita。这一版的Riff表演得很精彩，演员非常帅。改编增加了几个场景，故事背景设置在拆迁在即的Lincoln Square贫民窟，在警察局唱《Gee, Officer Krupke》更幽默和讽刺，男女主约会的地点The Met Cloisters太美了。但是情节和原版区别不大，男女主的故事线一如既往的烂。不喜欢莫名其妙的爱情故事，很难理解男女主所谓的爱情，这个年代已经不吃《罗密欧与朱丽叶》这一套了。
歌舞剧蛮老套的，不过光影动作色彩都是非常教科书般的。种族主义是好莱坞拍摄永恒的主题
歌舞太棒了，布景、摄影也一流，两位主角缺少点魅力。
我是看了个罗朱么……某首曲子还行。歌舞部分拍的还行。关键是，白男比较碍眼，实在是忍不住那个救世主的傻样，女主还是挺可爱的。还有，麻烦下次别整那种显得男主很高大女主很娇弱的机位了行不，说的就是那个小拳拳砸胸口那个镜头。可以理解好评的人和差评的人了。（里头种族歧视和白人排外的台词有点让人不适。
丰富的场景，精致的转场，但影片的具象化太消解舞台调度的那种铿锵力度了，Rita不亏是老将，全片最佳是somewhere。
光看Kaminsky的用光和运镜就值回票价，经典重制从来不讨好，老斯完全知道自己要什么。
莎翁作品的现代化、通俗化、接地气化，斯皮尔伯格化移植。还得回过头去看一下60年前的那版。。。这版的女主颜值实在平庸了。
继续跟歌舞剧有仇 PS 你哥被杀了当晚就跟凶手上床？？
【7.5】没看过原作，就是爱情在现实环境下如此之难的那点事，毕竟是老故事了。又是一次精致的怀旧，技术层面基本无可挑剔，评分可见国内外文化差异之大，对部分国内观众来说，可能没什么可以再吸收、共鸣的元素，相当于看了个寂寞。
这个确实属于认知壁垒或者知识盲区了。对我来说除了一些光影设计和中间那首America外这又是在难听到家的音乐中折磨人两个半小时的体验，所以我在读评论时频繁看到“经典唱段”这四个字时只能表示非常困惑了
歌舞戏拍的都挺有亮点的，摄影特别棒，光影非常迷人，但我本来就讨厌这个故事，一群二货小混混自己作死不要紧还非得去霍霍小姑娘，这一版卡司又弱于是更讨厌了。Anita那位演的挺好，祝能拿奖
有一点，对道德感更严的中国观众来说难以接受，那就是在哥哥死后，玛利亚的“表示”力度不够，仅仅骂两句东尼是不够的，而她也更不应该用上床的方式去安慰他。另外就是当哥哥的女友回到家，她不该用步步紧逼的姿态来表现自己和东尼之间的爱情，那只会让观众觉得她无情残酷，为了爱情抛弃亲情（虽然其本意是爱情高于一切，嫂子之所以答应她也是因为两人在对爱情的态度上达成一致）
其实原本对斯皮尔伯格，加上西区故事的音乐是蛮期待的。结果看下来没什么感觉。
而对原作最大的继承，可能就是男女主一样糟糕的演技了吧。男女主轮流斗烂的演技，简直相映成趣，让本片还带上了一定的喜剧元素。看完只想给原版男女主道歉，不禁为正准备第一次看白雪公主的小朋友们担忧。
