David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
3.5/居然还不错，蓝屏真是酷奶奶，每一套衣服都好看，景和配乐都挺美。
电影出来了，原小说我还没看完。小说说实在的写得挺普通的，日式纯爱就像飘在天上的云，看得见摸不着，还得抬头仰望的那种不切实际，拍出来有的地方竟然也有点让我感动。
虽然就是死人纯爱，但是嫂子真的太好了，单手扛自行车的健人好帅哦
可能会因为一些事受伤，别只陷入自己的视角而自抛自弃，看看周围还有爱你的人在…日式叙述手法，主旨挺好的，演技除了个别细节整体还行，kento不错
正深陷見完shohei的空虛和思念深淵中的我聽到最後女主的信裡「晴人君と生きることができて、本当によかった。晴人君は私にたくさんの”よかった”をくれたね。晴人君を好きになれてよかった。これからだって そうだよ。ずっとずっと これからも。」那樣的台詞（不禁把名字替換成了shohei）就又emotional了……（片中出現好幾次我幾乎就要唱出來的旋律，直到ED出來才知道是哪一首。
景别 构图 音乐都不错 就是故事 讲着讲着就有点不自然 不够自在流畅
最酷的奶奶，看似蛮横不讲理的外表，其实内心有很多的精彩。
4果然，是我杀了我。自私 叛逆 忽视身边的爱
上影节近距离见过兰普林，优雅亲切，合了影签了名…如今看到她的新电影，感觉完全没变老，身材干练精瘦苗条，精气神十足（虽然演一个垂死的老人），没有人可以逃脱死亡的阴影和追击，如能从容面对，体面迎接，那就是最好的收尾了。
人生是一场漫长的寄宿生活，日本这种淡淡的情绪我还蛮喜欢。
深川荣洋《我的樱花恋人》2022
（不是否定企划本身）我可能更想看无灾无病的普通物语。
中岛老师演技真的有进步诶，但这个头型我真的不可，女主就……算了，不如看配角，b太和由纪都棒棒！从剧情到各方面都土土的，放到纯爱类里面都只能算中等偏下，死亡调色过曝滤镜，（人就算了但）樱花的美完全没有表现出来啊这铺天盖地的五毛特效令人心梗…
配饭吃的
似乎没啥深度，过来人明白年轻人的空白，年轻人却未必认可。
祖孙三代的故事，亲情仍是主题。祖孙三代似乎都遗传一样的病因，一方面渴求亲情，一方面却又拚命拒绝。夏洛特·兰普林的奶奶形象很出彩，演出了她浑不吝的女光棍样子，同时又表现其在强硬外表下的柔软内心。祖孙之间的戏份一般，整个剧拍得很沉重，不好玩。
6/10，有些无聊的家庭关系电影，除了一些自然风光外没有感受到新西兰的特色。
期间不知道电影在说什么，老公去看公众号文章，我去搜剧透了
全程无心动，不泪目，宛如看了个假纯爱。2022年还能看到这么寒碜的特效转场就很迷惑，但对于这糟糕的剧情和演绎来说也算不上煞风景了。
不仅仅是部纯爱片，虽然剧情大致类似套路
