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.
7.8 “我和我的小侄子”，和别的亲情片不太一样，他貌似在谈论哲学，最喜欢侄子回忆“以前的妈妈”———朝气、自我、热爱生活。
和墨尔本豆瓣基友顺利面基一起看的片子。情绪美好又治愈，中途还默默看哭了一下。To visit planet Earth, you will have to be born as a human child. You will grow up, travel, and work. Over the years you will try to make sense of that happy-sad-full always-shifting life you were in, and when the time comes to return to your star, it may be hard to say goodbye to that strangely beautiful world
从《她》开始就超喜欢凤凰叔 到《小丑》也是让我惊叹不已 《呼朋引伴》我却感觉有点无聊 全靠他个人魅力撑起来。
7分。轻柔又温暖。怎么能把一个司空见惯的侄子与不熟悉的舅舅相处的故事拍得动人？也许真诚是唯一的答案。其实小孩子的心是很单纯的，谁对他好他十分清楚，而且小孩子也愿意回馈别人的好。侄子和舅舅的感情在陌生、试探、信任中不断升温，在平淡的日常中逐渐巩固。短暂的相伴后，肯定各自都需要回到原来的生活，可是感情有了，回忆不会丢，三个原本有一些隔阂的人也更亲近了，糟糕的生活得到喘息。华金·菲尼克斯和小孩伍迪·诺曼都演得不错。黑白画面爵士感很足。
像是用剧情片的方式拍纪录片，让人关注年轻一代人如何看待未来，这个问题在当下的背景很有意义。而且拍摄选择了美国可能最没有未来的城市。华金仿佛已经成为美国颓废loser男人的代表，他演的角色怎么这样让人感同身受。
属于我不喜欢的那种类型电影，基本是以对话形式带动剧情发展。演员表现很自然。可能因为不想听太多大道理了，所以看的很乏味。
最近看的最爱的一部。感觉中年人都或多或少背负了好多故事，与家人、恋人、社会关系等等。而孩子会受到家庭带来的影响。用类似纪录片的视角，温柔的呈现了中年人和小大人之间相互治愈过程，看得几度落泪。
有一些文德斯的公路片内核，联想至《爱丽丝城市漫游记》，城市的影像，大-小角色的情感触动，但与此同时，倾向于更多温暖的力量。他们的交流与互动，情感内核由家庭仔至个人，大-小镜像投射。一路收录，让成人的世界加入更多的孩童视角。华金，真的爱了。
其实我算是个路人，之前的没有每部都看过，所以在电影院里看日语原声+法语字幕看得其实是有点懵的，很多名字出现不知道谁对谁，字幕又过得很快。
除了这个孩子有时不像个小孩，MV场景有点多，真的只有夸赞可言。抚养小孩当然不容易，但这个故事更告诉我们认真照顾人的能力是很难的，真心祝愿大家都有爱可以照顾自己身边的人，不管是家人、朋友还是孩子，这是我们一生都要学习的功课。
怎么说呢 比之前稍微好点？ 5人组穿插的不错，女性角色好苍白。。。
多说一句，论治愈程度，比《健听女孩》好太多。糖水喝多了会齁着，淡茶却能让人找到内心的平静
城市影像方面不太够。但情绪上完全被抓住了。倒也不单纯是“治愈”，而是温暖、欢乐、舒展、无奈、绝望等等一系列感情的混合。
为黑白滤镜和莫扎特安魂曲加一星。是我一直想看的那种温柔舅舅和奇怪小外甥的哲学公路片(？)穿插其中的大人采访各地小孩关于未来关于身份认同和其他思考的采访纪录很有意思。喜欢The Midnight Gospel式心灵对话播客的观众应该不会抵触这种叙事。舒缓平淡又有种娓娓道来的动人。最后滚字幕的时候也在放和小孩子们对谈可以继续坐着听，算是很贴心地给了大家默默流泪不用担心电影院突然亮灯一脸尴尬的余地。
I'm not fine
有些电影像一锅煮着煮着就软烂了的小红莓酱，酸甜黏糊，天天只吃它肯定要被酸倒牙，但吃烤火鸡这种硬菜的时候，却少不了要伴着吃一点解解腻。
知识分子不管纽约还是la都差不多 魂统一的 以为自己看完会自动带入今年和去年暑假帮我姐带孩子的情形 结果反而自动带入了侄子 那种早慧脆弱和对成人世界的好奇 以及果然艺术家的眼睛就是与众不同 可以把我眼里有点简陋90年代感十足的chinatown拍的疏离而冷静却不乏日常感 黑白拍城市灯光真让人着迷/1.叠声道延长 2.浮在城市场景切换的字幕 3.缩画框制造疏离感 4.生活流 技巧待重看
这部剧场版真的是太让我激动了！！！
比预想的有惊喜 没有尿点 就是不够恐怖哈哈哈 btw整个火焰就一个人吗那女的也是真的厉害
电影完成度还好。然，欲以孩童赤子之心救成人之饱经世事，我以为不可。
