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.
一种优化后的价值观呈现。但这种情感交流的方式真的太迷人，太令人向往了！很像文德斯的<爱丽丝城市漫游>。
另一种风格的菊次郎，华金的演技不着痕迹，十分顺滑，其他演员的演技也都非常棒。影片其实十分简单，但是却依靠闪回以及采访来充实内容 华金在小丑之后选择了这样一部清新、平淡的电影也能令人理解。影片的摄影构图与配乐营造出了一种很微妙的氛围，总有一些场景能让你会心一笑，二人之间的相处矛盾之类的也是看点，推荐更多的人能看到这部安静祥和、温柔的电影。
适合当爹妈的看，不适合巨婴看……孩子们都没有成年人想的简单

能遇见一个人让你成长，这是必生之幸！润物细无声的温暖以及治愈感～
it's ok you are not fine。如果这部纪录片真的拍出来了我一定会看的，提问真的很有意思。8/10
Very beautiful, if only we all had amazing adventures and amazing people like these when we were growing up. There will be so much for you to learn and feel, things you would have never expected to happen:)) also, I miss California and New Orleans so much.
u have 2 come on！看的過程想到的平時不太用的高級詞 雋永。一個男孩和很多個孩子，一個叔叔，和一對父母，New York City，New Orleans和LA。某種程度上的小紀錄片，「宏大」的問題和孩子舉重若輕的回答，有趣尋味。某種程度上的城市電影，紐約、奧爾良、和洛杉磯，風景和標誌。雖然我沒記住那些耐人尋味的文本，但是大概會是推薦給別人看的那一種電影。黑白畫面，不斷推進的文本台詞。還挺寫意。 @2022-01-10 23:21:47 @2022-06-03 23:25:49
细水般的温柔 不是父子 却可能是我能想到最舒服而亲密的父子模式 黑白画面好干净 光影有了更直观的感受 太可爱了啊woody 好喜欢啊 “it's ok to not be fine”
温柔的华金，也穿匡威。我也觉得没必要用黑白，并无更突出的表意。
喜欢看一些温情小品。这么美好的舅侄关系甚至让我有些嫉妒。
好舒服好温柔的一个片子，在城市间穿梭，收录着沙滩列车行人的声音，大人小孩情感的交流和接纳，一起呼喊i'm not fine. 中间穿插着所有的关于未来关于现在关于超能力的采访都充满了亲和力和想象力。
自由主义知识分子对亲情、成长、和解等生活系列命题的内心思辨，巧妙地通过“叔叔带侄儿”的故事和话筒设定娓娓道来～像是把王小波的杂文精选视觉化了一般～
非常温柔的一部电影，娓娓道来，又像是叔侄的互相治愈之旅，很真诚很可爱，看得很舒服
跟着导演的视角变化 对过去与未来不断问询 试图寻找答案 又在平静的接受着自己的生活 随着受访者和城市街道的变化 导演内心的平静从未改变 华金菲尼克斯对细腻名干的内心捕捉的到位深刻 但导演对现实和问题没有加入很多自己的思考 没有点题和深化主旨
- "We forget everything."
实际上，我并不觉得这部电影有什么值得大书特书的特色，或精湛高超的技艺，它更像是一个套了黑白滤镜的流水账故事。
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon
以儿童为中心的具体生活，它向我们展开的过程中揭示了属于真实世界的根本命题，死亡、离别、爱。同时夹带着对几个城市的凝视、对人类未来的信仰。非常喜欢。
3.5。A24的品味真好，褪色的纽约与洛杉矶是如此的“冷漠”，而以舅舅这个角色进入到一个破碎的家庭里变成了“褪色”教育里的父亲、朋友。如访谈节目一样给观众们上一课，效果不是很佳.....
