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.
我还是很喜欢结局的，在我心里算是一种全员HE？
哇！我就喜欢这种闭环故事！有点想看原版小说了！
我觉得莫名其妙，这竟然是畅销小说？反正我是看不下去，浪费了这些好演员
故事一般，比较老套，画面色调和构图很美，截了好多图做桌面。那个年代的美国有很多精致的设计。
没看过剧听着旁白自述观影会一路莫名其妙，影片跟旁白毫无关系，很尴尬。
作为一个三刷过黑道家族的老观众 电影确实太散了 什么都想交代 又什么都没交代好 Tony对Dickie的崇拜也没有讲清楚 起码他们之间的交集电影里展示的太少了 很失望。
明明是《黑道家族》前傳，竟然花這麼長時間談BLM。
这么精采的影片 为何评分和看的人都不多 而且也表达的很清楚 为何一堆人说的不正确 怪事
两星半，东一榔捶西一棒头的，感觉像是看了一集没头没尾的电视剧。视角混乱，单场戏的叙事效率太低，感觉就是挨个儿点了一下soprano家花名册，或者看了一个饭拍的前传的感觉
大部分时间的絮絮叨叨，真实和故事的穿插让人理不清头绪，最后真相大开的时候，还是觉得莫名其妙三千万被捐了。

西西里家族和小黑哥的战斗 不够狠不够有戏 线索有点儿乱套 勉强看一看
节奏确实慢了点, 但故事讲的不错, 西野七濑是真的可爱
②infinite: without limits in space or time.
主要讲了Tony上一代的家族史，如果没有看过原剧肯定是不到两星。
主剧的故事情节基本快忘光了，不过这主角年轻时和老了挺像。。。。

不是每一部帮派电影都是教父，也不是每一个没能化解的遗憾都是布朗克斯的故事。帮派电影的黄金年代可能一去不返了吧。
很喜欢，全程不用动脑，就静静感受那场风雪，感受山，感受疲倦劳累和不懈坚持，感受伤痛和治愈。
2星，影片很混乱，没有重点，估计也没想好好讲故事，就是给《黑道家族》补补料，熟悉《黑道家族》的看这片子代入感会好很多。
