Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
有点意思，就是梗太老，建议只看一半内容就行，永远是一个套路两边用，浪费时间，不推荐看了。
不圆满的 平静的 伤心的 疲惫的愤怒的 也是一种有趣的人生 生活啊生活
糟心了快两个小时，最后十分钟是平静的，好担心编剧最后让他从楼上跳下去
很难不让人联想到《花束般的恋爱》，五味杂陈的青春成长物语终于不只是傻兮兮的糖水爱情故事了，但凡加入真真切切的社畜生活，就会变得更为写实。青春的尾调很悠长，像黎明来临前的深夜一样平稳持久，而青春气息的消散却格外迅猛，如同刹那间明亮起的晨曦天光。心中在疑惑为什么才一会儿的功夫就变了另一幅光景时，其实早就发现是被恋爱人情和生活世故这两双手拖出了少年美梦的被窝。
不老男神Leonardo Sbaraglia演绎中年同志的日常生活，他沉湎于过去，放纵在当下，他很敏感，也很悲伤，而这也恰好反映了阿根廷现在的“生存状态”，背景和前景人物形成了完美的相互关照。
现实却又反差萌（男女之间互换了位置（此处无拳））我们黑菜已经演船戏啦，印象里还是那个可爱的会长…….（船戏毫无美感甚至有些出戏）前半段很好，反转后拉胯…感觉在看别人的人生，很难代入…虽然平时总会幻想别人的人生是什么样的，但那终究是人家的，并不能共情…所以豆瓣什么时候能出半星（每年一问）
儿子的各种台词：“爸爸，太黑了，我什么都看不见”“怎么会没事，我的心脏像燃烧一样痛”
完全在我笑点上的电影，叙事很新奇，希望能遇到和我一样想法的人hhhh
1⃣不家暴
顺着 理央找过来的，只不过中间过渡是不是太快了？
深夜美好的相遇终将如同啤酒泡沫般消散在日出时分微凉的晨光里，属于年轻人的回忆就永久收藏吧！人生本来就很难，翻来覆去地说也没意思，所以割裂的叙述就更不讨喜了。
46/100。直到最后半个小时才逐渐理解了男主人公玩世不恭的外表下脆弱不堪的内里，当那些生活中所有最接近的美好突然消逝的瞬间，那颗看起来流浪的心终会体验到不可扭转的疼痛，才能更好学着过完未来的人生。然而影片的前四分之三虽然回想起来确实能够体现出男主人公的生活态度，但具体呈现上真的让人难以忍受，晃动不安的镜头、吵闹喧哗的配乐、具有挑衅意味的某些情节实在让人吃不下去。不过男主角演技确实了得，尤其是那场和女儿的餐桌撕逼戏，两人句句高能，让人大呼过瘾。 @2021-10-20 23:27:26
有些话说出来比做到容易，孤独是无可治愈的顽疾。每个人都有问题，“大脑中一直有什么静不下来”，每当认真检视自己的内心，发现从来不能在任何亲密关系里得到真正想要的。男主角圣地亚哥只擅长维持一夜情关系，父女关系、爱人关系，全都一塌糊涂，甚至3P之后，一夜情关系也差点翻车。向海滩情侣交代心事，尽情感受肉体之乐，对比别墅派对擅自狂欢，扰了爱人的清静，该果决时没那么果决，该细腻时没那么细腻。流浪的心啊，想装下整个世界，却只是流于表面的走马观花。男主角没什么成长点，或许导演想呈现的就是庸常生活里人渴求改变又故步自封的状态，看完只想对空气怒挥几拳。镜头色彩颇有质感，莱拉和她的妈妈两位女性角色很美，莱拉跳舞，以及后面妈妈弹奏钢琴的段落，点睛之笔，钟罩蝴蝶一般的美丽疏离。
好平淡啊，熬到中间看到高潮来了，以为有大招，居然就这么结束了。。。
上上班喝喝酒打打浑 傍晚时分追逐霓虹 黎明时分逃离旭日 是过往的青春 也是现在
带着松冈茉优的心情看完了才意识到是黑岛结菜orz要说喜欢还是黑岛结菜哇
对不起，我爱惨了，情绪在一部片子里经历大笑大哭，编剧的细腻我太喜欢了
僕は最初からわかっていた。いつか、この時間に終わりがくることを…。
还挺有意思的，起码一个故事讲下来了，比那些花里胡哨的大电影强多了。小烧烤必须支持一下啊。就是这个结局的反转感觉有点突然。
好看
