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.
哈里森+哈特莫名好磕，看我的既甜又好笑，很好看！虽然剧情俗套，可还是好看，何况还有美美的penny客串，哦对了，还有山p
小成本密室逃脱惊悚片，典型警察来了还不如不来的送人头行为。可太气人了，简直帮倒忙了！
这种剧本真是很无聊，结局还是那么老套，反派又是死于话多，警察又是龙套，女主光环严重闪瞎观众双眼，顺便还附赠油腻美式家庭和解团圆。
还不错 虽然比较套路但是看在钉子哥那一跤的份上加一分哈哈哈哈哈哈
开场的氛围营造真的可以，进入正题后剧情一崩再崩，连逻辑都不要了。。。
有点失望，还是乌龙特工比较好看，凯文哈特真的说话好快哈哈哈哈，整体有点平庸了，而且有的地方很不合逻辑，5分
6.5低了，最近最好的惊悚，直球之下，是女主撑得住场面的演技，坚韧的亚洲女性！
杰森斯坦森要拍成R级的坚持是正确的 PG13太没那味了
挺好的 8.0 商业动作喜剧片 最后一段的手持摄影用的很好 挺刺激的 以及 完美诠释了：反派死于话多 （和王牌保镖是同一个导演 突然理解了为什么这么相像
有段时间没有看过这种较为优秀的纯剧情小空间小制作片子了，剧本还算挺扎实，重点是从毫无波澜到最后如何步步推进，还有如何收尾，能做到有看点有起伏没bug且不蠢，在现在来看已经是很难得了
叛逆女遇到绑架犯，剧情一般，没想到会有6.5的分数，imbd6.1
就……很普通，所有角色都有点迷惑行为。整片最有记忆是令我学了新的扑克玩法。
我家那位来自多伦多的男人倒是看的挺开心……
真凶暴露有点早 反转也就不那么惊人了 惊悚气氛营造的还是差了点
钉子作为凶器太新奇了! 诡异又有一种廉价的神圣感，很喜欢。
这种片子最怕女主智商掉线，还好保住了智商且很猛很利索，这个亚裔女主很可以了。
女主长相演技都好像周迅，几个场面看着心尖儿疼快进略过
无厘头电影，确实有笑到，认真你就输了，但是开头确实有点让人无语，这也没啥手段呐，不纠结这种东西去观赏还算合格的喜剧片，三星半。
“水能载舟，亦能覆舟”
这种没有营养的片子很适合上公共课看 😃吵闹，也不需要静心
