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.
套着悲情婚姻内核的人物传记片。lucille奋力挽救事业和婚姻，却频遭辜负。近乎偏执的想把戏按照自己的方式来演，其实是她对破碎婚姻的最后挽留。节奏和剧情混乱，仿佛剧本差已经成了冲奥传记片的标配，妮可的演技其实并没有过多get到，但影片末尾处听到I'm home后的出神有深深打动我，这就是所谓的影后moment吧！！恭喜妮可拿下金球影后，期待再战奥斯卡，dream一个二封！！！
几条叙事线交叉进行，中间为了真实还有很多插叙采访，感觉有点混乱；Nicole Kidman现在的外形倒是和Lucille Ball相差甚远，但她这次的表演还挺感情充沛，不是歇斯底里；对Lucille Ball不算很熟悉，但通过这个电影对她产生了一种探索欲
Again and again, Aaron Sorkin proved to be just a mediocre director
私隐不复存在，畅通无阻和寸步难行一线之隔，靠脚力在数字时代同智能科技拼一场胜利。Angela踏出房门，镜头化身成狭窄走廊里迎面而来的他者，从正面的对撞到背后的窥视。这些富有想象力的镜头，精准到位，仿佛一双双锐利的眼，还原出外部环境无时不在的压迫感，以及孤独封闭个体身上敏感紧绷的生活状态。
感觉还可以啦 能体会到电影的主旨，女主对home的追求，以及对check the wrong box的反抗

妮可基德曼我基本上是電影開場10mins之後才認出來的
Lucy的心魔是执着，事事都必须在乎，对政治、对感情、对艺术都不能含糊。她的丈夫却相反，只想过一种80分的日子，所以才会逃离妻子去“打牌”，觉得就算招妓也没什么，给自己放完20分的风，还是可以做个80分的好老公。故事表面上是现实版《一个明星的诞生》，我倒觉得双方成就的差异其实并非关键。
大概是疫情场景下看到的有趣的片了……小品，小剧情。看看装修也挺好的😆
想要谈及海思法案，又拍的像是经海思法典的规整后的故事，艾伦·索金，天才的黯淡呀。
所有符合当下时代特色的元素被融合在非常精巧的九十分钟里面，冰冷的泛科技感的画面配上疏离的声效，疫情时代科技加速入侵生活，家庭变成了捆绑的束缚和需要闪转腾挪的空间，从一个个刁钻的角度映照空间从而映射人物关系，室外则全副武装寸步难行。电子产品所带来的便捷与恐怖危害、密闭空间中女性所面临的危险等当下热门问题通过导演的计算被一个个拼贴进去，虽然有诸多瑕疵，比如女主健气自信得完全不像有任何心理疾病，比如最后反派就看着她操控不做反应等，有太多导演的“要求”而非发展，但这仍然是目前时代性做得最好的一部，它关于突围与推翻，关于当下的惊悚，索德伯格的一次成功尝试。
P.S1：三个干脏活的应变能力实在太差，2022年能让一个语音助手整不会了，你喊一声小度小度滚犊子不就完了。
两位主演演的好，故事结尾的一行字完全没有说服力。
男人只在有资格问女人的ambition是什么的时候爱她
男友这人物设置的没必要，还不如同样自闭的偷窥狂肥宅。三个杀手一脸喜剧人模样，实在是死的太惨了。女主楼上邻居也倒霉，好好房子成了凶宅。
没能坚持看完，演员阵容很好，但是主线情节的节奏有点弱，看了一半不到没看懂想表达点啥，貌似有点对那个时代女演员的个体缺少尊重？但是用这样一个很美国且带有历史背景的题材 可能作为中国观众来理解还是蛮有难度的
挺好的 比dont look up好点 跟其他的又不是很能比 没明白后来怎么还是离婚了 也不太想深究了
看得很过瘾。而且这种90分钟的电影已经很少了，所以很珍惜。
妮可女主提名还是很有说服力的，其他的提名没啥很强的说服力，只能说看着还行不够亮眼。。。剧本嘛还行吧
3.5 索金还是在剧本上有一个一以贯之的问题，就是过于急迫的在一个故事里塞太多东西，政治、婚姻、女性声音这些放在一个故事中都很难说清楚，野心太大反而说得多而乱。妮可的表演是没有任何问题的，但是不得不说打针打得有点点过度了，有点可惜，她和巴登感觉是在两个轨道上，甜蜜的时候有点牵强，后面演分崩离析反而好一些。
