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.
也许是真实事件改编，干涉内政这块儿现实永远高于艺术；坂本龙一的配乐欣赏不来，但确实intense, 有点信条那味儿。
喜欢用一个人的肉身对抗大命题的设定，受伤挣扎逃命都有了更好看的意义。
倒霉的卖软件黑哥哥到了希腊就成了特工了，这是多么不幸确非常幸运的事情啊。大哥从楼上往下跳的瞬间我就崩了，他喵的当自己是黑豹么？真不符合逻辑。不过希腊美景构图+坂本龙一配乐增色不少
完全第一视角的故事片，很厉害。把谁放到这种情境下也得懵，男主这行动力已经是很强大了
带了政治色彩的动作惊悚。。。emmm节奏是真的慢，而且最后男主终于还是开挂了。。。
我以后说的男主女主都是按照戏份多少来定的，如果戏份差不多/不准确，我会直接说名字）
好压抑 好刺激 警察 美国大使馆 一层一层 谁都不能信任 最后打架也非常真实 正常人打架就是这么的不厉害 打半天 好想看到最后男主要怎么回美国 还能不能通行 大使馆的人会不会再来灭口
政治味道稍浓了，且难看懂，抛开政治因素跟随节奏的话还是挺紧的。
太好看了！于无声处听惊雷，真实，扣人心弦。打低分的人，是什么心态？
还行，黑人小哥太猛了吧，怎么折腾都不死？！
配乐和场景都很不错，尤其是配乐，神了！但是剧情一般般，谜底揭晓之前还行揭晓之后就这……而且男主角是超人吗，两次枪伤还能爬上爬下的
有些演员大概特别容易激起导演用独角戏疯狂对ta施虐的欲望，比如麦斯比如连姆比如小华盛顿🤔
从《信条》开始就非常喜欢这位华盛顿，所以这次的Netflix&Chill时间自然不能错过这部题材和风格我都很感兴趣的电影。前半部分的观光和谈情说爱差点就劝退我了，还好紧张的逃生和精妙的配乐把我拉了回来。剧情呢就类似美帝个人英雄主义版的《金色梦乡》，不过我们的这位黑人主角无论是运气还是身手都非常了得，身负数伤还能重创涉黑团伙，感觉导演到后面都拍嗨了……
除结尾部分的高楼跳车非常夸张以外，其余地方都非常写实，主角完美展现出一个局外人陷入危险情况中的处境，各种求助方法，情绪的迸发，思维的缜密，都很真实很符合逻辑，确实很能调动观众情绪继续看下去。
异国他乡语言不通手无寸铁，车祸加中枪加卷入政治斗争都不死，主角光环太强了。拍摄手法略粗糙，演技一般，故事情节没有惊喜，不过鉴于网飞小成本，不功不过。
你追不到我 追不到就是追不到 还再缺了半条手的情况下 然而在雅典街头却没能抢过小姐姐的电瓶车
就刚开始我以为是爱情片，后面突然就变成悬疑片，突然又变成政治片。这。。。。一时不知道说啥。就乱。
小子挺能跑呀，爬山，跳崖，翻窗，打架不带喘的~
悬疑心理拿捏得还算到位，剧情方面高开低走了。Beckett受了枪击又被捅了几刀还能飞檐走壁，这怕是钢铁人现世了。
隐约看到不少片子的影子，希胖的节奏，全程懵逼的男主（继《信条》之后又扮演了一个no one），自然主义式的希腊风光。阵容是导演男票刷来的吗，教授的配乐打酱油的达妹，有点豪华。因为剧本的短板，总体的成片平平，但一些段落展示了导演的灵气，如在游行人群中的追逐戏，在山谷中的逃脱镜头，进入城市后在列车上的紧张感，都留下了记忆点。若找个好点的剧本，未来可期。
