David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
想吃饭，想和互相喜欢的人一起吃饭，想给喜欢的人做他喜欢吃的饭，想让我喜欢的人给我做饭，马德……想和喜欢的人一起走进柴米油盐……
确实会看得人神伤 明明是旧瓶新酒 但那些令人悸动不已的暗戳戳就是会一下子闯进心窝里 加国景色很美 但本片显然是想告诉大家移民要慎重 从这点看 立意创新是在的
Jaime真的是姬圈天菜
同性恋只是一种性取向，不代表品味，品质。同理，同性恋题材的影片，也不代表就好。我发现这些年，只要是同性恋题材的电影，就无原则打高分。这个现象，跟黑命贵一样“正确”。
- 2022/05/28，看完。真好呀，看得超级快乐，心里暖烘烘。いいな★～ -
对于新体系内部的控制刻画太少了，比较失去力度。
怎么感觉是剧版里的重新拼成电影，还是我记错了，感觉都看过啊
2022年7月：15日→在豆瓣电影网页版看到这部电影时只有原名《You Can Live Forever》，但因为不到300人评价的8.5分而产生兴趣；19日→决定观影时已经有了简体中文名《唯爱永存》；20日→观看正片时，发现简体中文名变成了《永生永世》；看完电影写记录时，主译名又被改回了《唯爱永存》，还多了个又名《爱无止境》。
结尾到“You should have been there”是最恰到好处的，后面的剧情让还在哭的我不知所措了，显得有些滑稽。
四星全给浴缸里那场禁欲戏，但总体来说剧情比较平，意想不到的是小奶狗扑倒了小狼狗~
气死了，看的肝疼，但是怎么拍的这么好，又没法违心地打低分。Marike 大概是真的相信新世界，但心底也无法克制对爱意，所以情愿用牺牲自己的幸福来换取和Jamie 走向新世界，当然也不愿意出逃 成为家族另一个“去世的人”。其实我明白的，这是代价最小 也很”聪明”的做法，这种“我不愿意让你离开”，无疑也把对方困在了“耶和华”的世界，但世界还有好大，为什么 凭什么把自己和对方都困死原地。Love’s selfish ，so u can love forever.
这两个不愧是一对，发现对方有奇怪行为后想的都是‘你不会要亖吧...’很搞笑但又很悲伤，好不容易遇到相守一生的伴侣，最害怕的就是生理上过早的别离吧...
我们只能分开。
终于有颜值的美女来了，一个像k，一个像frija，折腾了一圈都有娃了才明白真爱最重要，侄女就是这样既要还要。
5.5分，作为电影这类剧场版真的有天然硬伤，整体叙事节奏还是弱的，主要就看西岛叔了。
没办法理解宗教人的信仰。。。。两位女主真配，爱时的眼神给个高分。
日常内容撑到电影的120分钟实在有点勉强，看得我昏昏欲睡。终于敢说，西岛叔和内野叔毫无cp感！毫无！而且内野演的gay太刻意太做作，不喜欢。
竟然还出了电影版🎬？？👴青回啊 原画yyds！ 温馨的美好啊……
淡淡的，缓缓的。无论人还是宠物，能陪着一直一直走下去真的是一种奢侈。
意外的精彩。本以为又是隔靴搔痒的青春疼痛，没想到沉默的深情侵入身体发肤，带来悠长的回味与感动；没有曝露肉体的贪艳猎奇，点到为止的接触已然刻骨铭心，整部电影压抑无声的情绪累积，铺垫至结尾经年流逝的旧明信片——“you should have been there”——眼泪终于决堤了。
