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.
游乐场那一套打发开始内卷到音乐歌舞片了，卡的不是音乐的节奏，而是娱乐的爽点。可怜加菲，老天赏饭吃的少年脆弱感没有遇到真实走心的好团队；也可怜加菲，全身心交代的勤奋较真劲过度匠熏以桂椒。所谓买椟还珠的笑话还要被重复多少次？还要被笑话多少遍？
歌不行，真的不行，从头到尾没有一首让人印象深刻的，光从这点上来说就是失败的音乐剧电影了。加菲都快四十岁的人怎么还是那么有少年气，但片子里一直好hysterical。三十岁，so what？不明白主角为啥这么焦虑，焦虑到都快有狂躁症了，无法relate。
惊喜加菲 开场就炸
LMM首次做導演能有這個水平，他真的很有才華。這電影形式眼前一亮，展現musical行業的艱難，並致敬了LMM的知音Johnathan Larson。Broadway充滿有才華的演員，但有幾個能以此為生，感謝這些堅持夢想的人們❤️
大型MV，情感和人物升华靠生拔。大概我太庸俗了，欣赏不了（我也很无奈啊）
一直在等seasons of love, 原来是最难的故事啊。看到桑爷好难过。
看到片尾那些乔纳森当年的片段 才发现加菲是真的好像他 导演为同志角色平添的颜色很闪耀 那竟是真正打动我的部分
太難看了 救命 歌怎麼可以那麼難聽？？？ 這個編曲我上我也行 表演也太用力了救命啊
7.3 倒是看出了一些黑暗中的舞者式的设计，但初执导筒的林聚聚显然是不具备冯提尔那样的影像嗅觉，剪辑很多时刻是反而是破功的，摄影机的运动也因此被破坏；它依靠的更多是对于乔纳森拉森，以至于音乐剧本身的真情流露，伪纪录片与内心的剧场穿插共奏，从而谱写出不平凡的人生乐章，《梅艳芳》至少也应该这么拍吧。
musical来说歌不行真的硬伤 讲述故事的方式也太平庸
单纯说电影，影像表达力度是不足的，但情感太充沛了，饱含热情，悲伤与焦虑，生日那天，如果我没事可做，就一个人二刷这部电影吧
算是传记片，展示Jon的努力与挣扎，对于年龄和目前困境的焦虑，对未来的迷茫，对朋友、爱人离世离去的不舍，虽然塞进去“美国梦”跟同性恋的内容，但是不影响片子本身的质量，自我探索跟坚持是永恒的主题，不单单是“美国梦”才有的
再走一步，再走两步。没有一刻可以浪费
年度观影：No 465
歌舞片，没什么亮点，创作者就是不停的写写到能被看中为止，然后继续写
come to your senses的后劲太大了，电影看完后一直记着这首歌。还有，要去看Rent！
又焦虑又治愈，先入为主地认为凡妮莎还是适合歌舞片。
其实中后段有点撑不起来，最终要将的不是很清晰，你到底要讲的是个人还是时代，没有掰扯好来，一直摇摆不定，最后的收尾，也比较一般，好就好在形式上让人眼前一亮，加菲这次也撑得起来。
这部片作为歌舞片最大的问题，就是在于歌舞不行....当然剧情也很俗套，配角真的也很工具人，加菲的演出也很夸张...可能要展现热情（但是他看女友那段我觉得情绪很好 很帅 保持）
本大杂烩人……看过rent20周年巡演，对Larson略知一二，落实到影像上整个N次泪水在眼眶打转，基本上都围绕在音乐点上。加菲的表演也不蜘蛛侠，很ok！感动蔓延！
