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.
适合随便打发一下时间，这种廉价的意大利抓马剧，还是能看的。把奈飞青春片和意大利家庭剧杂糅一下，价值观和主题都与时俱进，同志夫夫开始出轨闹离婚争夺孩子的抚养权了，一出鸡飞狗跳无比热闹的大戏。
不管家庭如何组建，生活总是一地鸡毛，但爱是串联起独立个体的千丝万缕，让我们在称之为生活的旅程中建立联结，扣紧臂膀。男主纪录片的收尾好喜欢噢，同性家庭不一定和睦幸福于异性家庭，出轨和离婚也很正常，打开了我对lgbt群体婚恋的认识和想象。
一部认真讲故事，关注少数婚姻，家庭，成长的电影。演员的表演自然，整部充满着温情的意大利电影。小男主和配乐都是我的心头好，2022第一部五星。
很难不和国内做对比，就还是希望有个更自由的浪漫的多元的社会，这样大概会更幸福吧。虽然难免有纠葛重重，至少不会痛苦于最初的被认同这一点吧。
片尾的那些红色绳子圈出了爱情所有的不忠。我和别人做爱，但我爱的始终是你，这感觉好像也没什么毛病。嗐！
同性家庭跟异性家庭同样会面临各种挑战和矛盾，同性家庭的孩子也不一定是同性恋，即使没有血缘关系，已经建立的连结和爱是无法被抹去的。说到最后其实我们大多数人都只是平凡的普通人。
我宣布这部片子有我看《爱你，西蒙》时的感觉了！同志婚姻的破碎和代孕儿子的成长，这部很抓马的喜剧片解锁了同影的一个新的领域。表面上是很普通的家庭伦理剧情，中间穿插了青春校园生活，讨论的议题缺是耳目一新的：同性婚姻与抚养孩子一系列法律的实施与缺陷，孩子被家庭关系所误会的性取向，血缘与否的亲情……结合极具戏剧化的喜剧元素，呈现的是一场很欢乐温暖而又惹人深思的故事。
自然流畅的轻喜剧，人类不是只有因为血缘才能建立亲密关系，另外LGBT的故事再也不是苦大仇深爱而不能之类的了，和异性恋一样，都是人，而人性都是复杂的
绝佳的光影布景构建出空旷冷峻的舞台效果，悲剧气氛有了，但搭配这样一个血腥的故事，多少有点奇怪
意大利电影总能带给我意外之喜。男同不奇怪，俩爸爸也不奇怪，奇怪的是居然都不是生物学父亲，这就太有意思了。
3.5.后同志时代从一种基于认同政/治的爱情神话转向了日常叙事，家庭的核心单位依然是爱，爱好大.👌
演员们颜值高到我吐血！视角很独特，朝着正确的方向独特着。
有爱和可爱的片子！第一次看两个“爸爸”的家庭，其实本质上和“爸爸妈妈”的相类似。情节一波三折，透过喜怒哀乐，还是在给我们传达““爱，家庭”这些普世价值观，只不过形式很新颖。
演员们颜值高到我吐血！视角很独特，朝着正确的方向独特着。
ohno…爱的千丝万缕是好名字，爱而不是血缘才使我变成如今的模样不是么？ 可是婚姻这么多年，只有孩子是羁绊又让我难过。突然在爱里失望之后，互相伤害不能让状况变好，但也没有解决的办法，它是单向的，这样想着又好绝望，哪天搞不懂对方了真难过。 是可爱好电影，意大利、攀岩、骑车，俏皮和年轻人tla，可爱，喜欢。
没看前以为是部纪录片，看了几分钟后：这也太电影了吧？哈哈哈哈哈。
标准的意大利家庭喜剧片，只是在喜剧的内里透着一股丧，两个daddy我都可以
一个特殊背景下关于家庭的故事，不断反转的剧情虽然有其猎奇的一面，但最终回归的是一个普遍的主题——爱和家庭。所谓爱若凡人，无论是传统的还是现代的家庭面对的问题其实没有多少不同。
标准的意大利家庭喜剧片，只是在喜剧的内里透着一股丧，两个daddy我都可以
很有意义，不管是血缘关系还是性向探讨，都十分真诚，更何况是based在真实剧情
