Max is a real jerk. A long time ago, the successful lawyer had turned over all the routine duties of family life to his wife Nathalie.His comfort and leisure time were a far greater priority. Sell the roadster and buy an efficient family car? No way!But then, Max’s fast-paced life suddenly screeches to a halt when Nathalie is hospitalized for several weeks with a complicated fracture.Alone with their two children and the dog he hates, Max quickly reaches the boiling point.As if having to play father was not bad enough, he is shocked to the core when he discovers passionate love letters written to his wife and signed “From G. in love”. Feeling that his life is slipping out of control, Max’s first impulse is to find out who his rival is. Then it dawns on him – could the way he has treated his wife be the reason why she has sought out another lover?Now Max attempts to see his situation from a different point of view. Last week he was ready to plan the yearly guys’ vacation he takes with his best buddy, but now things have changed.Max recognizes just how much he needs Nathalie’s humor, her organizing talent and her optimism, but also just how important to him she and his family really are. Max tries to discover the mysterious lover’s identity, but because of his new insight, he takes an additional step.Unfortunately, when he learns that the mystery man is Gregor, Max realizes that not only does the man have all those qualities - he is very attractive as well. His struggle to become a better husband and father suddenly becomes far more difficult.Hoping to knock Gregor out of the picture and get back in Nathalie’s good graces, Max makes an appointment with a successful life coach. But turning his life around is far more difficult than he had imagined.To make matters worse, Gregor turns out to be a loving, family-oriented man just what Nathalie needs. Max is desperate – he knows there is a real chance that he might lose Nathalie and the children.Willing to put everything on the line to keep his family intact, Max makes the biggest sacrifice of his life. Then something happens that is the very last thing he could have ever counted on…
弟弟与哥哥漫长的告别，第三幕笔锋一转，以对未尽之作毫不完善的演绎总结这一波三折的"魂归故里"，在粗糙的背景板下略过了人生的跨度，乡愁中更增添了许多遗憾。
喜欢《鬼魅浮生》的我第一时间买了这部，结果只好承认看得比较懵，经过长评的辅助才知道原来是亚瑟王后续故事，还是我们托尔金老师一手推广的，不过视听语言和导演前作一样很特别很有味道，稍显悚然的气氛营造赞，从一年后上路开始，骑士和一只不离不弃的漂亮小狐狸的试炼旅程逐步变得有趣起来，帮助幽灵找回失落的头颅，踏入巨人的领地，去抵达一个离奇的绿色承诺，坎妹太美了，我一度以为小狐狸就是坎妹变的；另外片中像听莎翁剧般的古英语台词格外文雅 #SFM341
[Berlinale Competition] L'Avventura
与《雷米尼》一致的关于欧洲中心主义消亡的沉思(Rimini作为象征性地点居然也在片中闪现)，这一部具备更结构化的戏剧结构与个体生命故去的个人愁思。黑白与彩色切分故事为归乡与离乡两部分，前一部分找到了极妙的麦格芬(皮兰德娄的骨灰)并被演绎成具有历史背景的偶像破坏活动(筑于庙堂之上的圣物成为飞机上的凶兆、火车上的扑克牌桌、童棺中的侏儒)；前半部分散落的美国符号在后半部分自成文本(诺贝尔奖、香烟、美国往事)，离乡者在不可归去的欧洲幻景(母亲画像)中寄于女童身体的自我毁灭和重生。
一个骑士的成长之路。
想到风很大的Agrigento，一边是温馨的家庭屋内对话，一边是路灯都在晃的恐怖片场景。那是离Piradello最近的时刻。
Oh, man. Eerie but fascinating. Actually loved it. And, are you kidding me, Zaddy Dev?
兒童片，但因為另類而被欺負的小女孩遇到狗狗後發生的改變還蠻感人的。和我家貓貓一起看的，還好大紅狗出場也沒嚇到🐱
特别拧巴的一部电影。Lowery为了让当代观众理解角色，把Sir Gawain the virtuous的journey of chivalry改编成coming of age故事。改编很难说成功。一面极力撇清传统saga和coming of age叙事不惜穿插荒诞讽刺，一面不得不忠于原著情节用神秘主义风格把saga情节糊弄过去。最终coming of age变成了一条直到最后一幕通过颅内simulation才能完成的陡峭曲线，路上的道德挑战在乳臭未干的小骑士身上也失去了在原著里与virtuous knight的张力。slow pan再好看也救不回来。
影片其实和《鬼魅浮生》在结构上有很相似的地方，只不过这一次导演没有像之前那么沉浸于自己的镜头本身，多少把重心放在了人物身上，看之前我都忘了具体演员表，所以熟人一个接一个地出现还是很让人惊喜的。
断断续续又迷幻不清的片段，可能这是英国历史的文言文吧
黑白片段是近五年最美的影像。
没烂到家，太难看了，节奏太死了。没意思，烂片浪费生命
命运的恩赐都是一样多的，如果你少年得志，那就不能怪自己年迈时孤苦无依。意大利的乡愁太美了，无论是清晨还是黄昏，总是要选出至美时刻的，其余的在旁衬下暗淡无光，也许这才是残酷世界的真相。
顶多给五岁以下简单的小朋友看看了！这是按照提纲拍的吗，剧本太弱太弱太弱！看的犯困！电脑狗狗再怎么卖萌也救不回来！
悲欣交集（撒骨灰这么俗 也能流下两滴猫眼泪
可爱的狗狗！虽然红色有点膈应…不过看着它的脸还挺舒服！
一个“迪士尼公主”，披了一层“聊斋皮”，喷上“A24香水”。难受。
长诗转电影，兜转了那么久终究要谈最重要的承认问题，这当然能让人摆脱有死，但这里真正达成这重境界终究还是原著，而古董寓言的成长故事一经展开，确实是天生现实又自带浪漫，也貌似只有在这样的维度上，才能古典。
6/10。将诺奖作家的骨灰带回故土，棺材当作牌桌、百姓吃瓜憋笑，像更私人的《杰出公民》。后半段黑白转彩色，皮兰德娄的遗作《钉子》，完成双重告别。一阵海风带走剩余的骨灰，真温柔。并不了解这对导演兄弟，所以无感弟弟与哥哥漫长的告别。
