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.
没一句废话，伏笔全用上了，剧情舒适。但导演真的不会拍打戏
故事就是简单的黑色幽默，但是看到一个个人物真的太激动了啊
这可太有意思了，笑点很多，剧情还很精彩，接地气啊！一环接着一环
而且很多剧情莫名其妙，比如一大堆出租车堵住了就难么跑了？跑了……
评分「8.5」
还不错，优映什么时候拍院线电影，至少剧情比现在上映的那些强吧
整体节奏和情节起伏比上一部保镖要强一些，该有的冲突元素也都有了。
这么开心的电影居然6.7分我是真的会打抱不平！！！真优映粉过年！！！
情怀分，制作一般，小宝还是小宝，邵庄演技略胜一筹，包哥才是永恒的点睛之笔
没了“毛骗”的那种惊艳与立体，整部电影在剧情和人物塑造上略微扁平，虽然多线叙事，但框架大内容少，没有绝对的高潮，整体平庸沉闷。但在情怀滤镜下，还是基本尚可
比非常保镖好了太多了，处处伏笔。情节设计还算巧妙，影像方面差了些
第一次看车导/车编/车副导/...的戏，很棒！
优映文化与出奇创作组。
虽然四平八稳的，但总感觉不到激情。故事完整，细节到位，就是不适合电影，剪成短片剧集试试吧
这帮人搞的东西看了那么多，完全失望的真的没有，剧本完整，笑点有，反转有，还特别接地气，非常期待以后得作品。
还挺有意思的，一口气看完了，有点类似疯狂的石头系列。7.7分。
这片子应该是哪类型的？就是那种用现有的资源拍一部最好的电影那种
警笛声，让我想起了李老师他们的无奈
首先必须满分 其次夸一下邵庄 你就是专业的演员
而他们，从未放弃影视
