Last at the Festival with 2017’s rural noir Dark River, a selection in the Platform programme, writer-director Clio Barnard returns to the Bradford, West Yorkshire setting of her earlier films for this tumultuous, fiercely affecting midlife love story.
A bundle of good humour and nervous energy, Ali (Adeel Akhtar) is a British Pakistani working-class landlord who forges close bonds with his tenants. One day, while picking up one of his tenants’ children from school, he offers a lift to Ava (Claire Rushbrook), an Irish-born teacher and single mother of five. They bond almost instantly through their love of music, though Ali favours the high energy of Buzzcocks and hip-hop while Ava takes refuge in the quieter comforts of Bob Dylan and Karen Dalton. Despite their divergent backgrounds, differences in their stages of life, and the colour of their skin, despite the fact of Ali’s failing marriage and Ava’s fraught relationship with her adult and adolescent children, each finds themself irresistibly drawn to the other. But can their mutual desire transcend a barrage of personal obstacles?
Inspired by people Barnard encountered while making her acclaimed features The Arbor and The Selfish Giant, Ali & Ava is a film that feels profoundly rooted in lived experience, blending a tender emotional complexity with an at times bracing depiction of trauma and grief. Akhtar and Rushbrook’s finely hued performances speak to the setting’s cultural diversity and tribal loyalties while yielding a vulnerability that’s alternately heart-wrenching and joyous. Their story serves as a reminder that it is sometimes the least likely connections that are the ones most worth pursuing.
女主角不错，下面评论说得好，接受一下迂回的主旋律。
越来越喜欢这种自然呈现、不刻意输出的电影。疫情突发时的那种无助、绝望和不甘心，以及片尾那段振聋发聩的质问，朱迪的表现既在意料之外又在意料之中，总之她从不让人失望，特棒！最后感叹一下，英国英语的口音真是太多了，比如这部电影就是其中一例～
死亡之下，就只剩下最后那一点点狼狈的自由，为什么不去追寻？
沉浸感真好，还是得由小见大，本来都能达到效果，可咱总是搞反。
看了前半段没明白在讲什么 再看才发现原来是以新冠为背景的故事 小人物的视角 用了多个一镜到底的长镜头 把那种焦虑 无助 绝望到歇斯底里和慌乱的状态展现的很真实 比某国医生拍的好 新冠下不讲家国情怀 只讲小人物的悲欢 拍出了灾难来袭下 受害又无法得到及时救援的人们的挣扎 死亡与无奈 也是一个很好的角度 只是没想到结尾是这样的 如此压抑 充满了无力感
上个月我对朱迪的印象还是杀手，现在就已经成为天使了。
好家伙，你瓣共情专供片哈。这片子的剧情走向挺迷惑的。
跟拍、手持、特写、浅焦、变焦，视听技巧对情绪与氛围的营造简单却有效。
他们将灯光照向了弱势群体，他们不是新闻上滚动的数字，而且真实鲜活的个体，每个人的离去都是冰冷黑暗的切实痛苦。最后的独白是一种无力的控诉，而我们却想为这种无奈的勇敢鼓掌呐喊，这部戏里的朱迪演得太好了！
把镜头放小一点，对人的打动就会更大一点。中国医生，你看到了吗
这个是疫情以来第一部歪果仁有戴口罩的影视作品，这觉悟来来来，莎拉你会长命百岁的。
离我们14亿粉丝的阿冲哥的正能量与歌功颂德差了太多[捂嘴笑]
we need someone to unveil the overlooked.
#豆瓣电影
电影还行。
nobody is coming.医疗体系崩溃真是太绝望了
在现实抗疫上 中国确实做的比西方国家好太多太多了 但是在电影上 中国被甩的太远了 我们的同类型电影简直就是屎
这应该是我看的第一部讲新冠疫情的外国电影，朱迪·科默演技不错，在一个阿尔兹海默症理疗机构已经很不容易了，还要在疫情之下救助每一个人，简直就是英雄啊！
早前听说养老院许多人去世，疫情爆发的前三个月care home去世占四成。得不到的help。jodie从mad fat diary和doctor foster不过六八年时间。可以的。
第千标的电影
