Charles Burnett, one of America's most highly regarded independent filmmakers, wrote and directed this domestic drama about a black middle-class family living in South central Los Angeles. However, there are no gangs, no guns, no drugs but instead a lyrical story that draws on folklore and the supernatural.
family tensions are already simmering when Harry (Danny Glover) arrives to visit his old friends. He exudes an easy charm, knows secret past and present and is soon installed in the heart of the family. However, as his stay lengthens, so does he begin to cast an even more malevolent spell, provoking turmoil, setting son against son, reviving past hatreds, and inflicting a mysterious illness.
Glover delivers a career-topping performance as the garrulous family friend, full of hidden menace, effortlessly evoking nostalgia and horror in the same breath.
As ever, Burnett provides a wonderful music track featuring gospel, blues and jazz and a cameo from the legendary Jimmy Weatherspoon.
'A slow-burning, soul-insinuating, 12-bar blues of a movie.' Tom Charity, Time Out
'Danny Glover is marvellous, and terrifying, as a charismatic old-timer.' The Times

味精加多了 但奶奶诚不我欺 最后奶奶慢慢走到门口发现他们上了巴士在门口默默目送的短短一分钟（不包括那个莫名其妙的大特写） 就是全片最好的一分钟
离开这里。
to the ones who stayed
小孩看得很欢乐，有些情节挺緊张的，有时也搞笑
开头两分钟像旅游宣传片。"The Irish were born leaving, otherwise, the rest of the world would have no pubs." Good Friday Agreement保了爱尔兰二十年的和平 -- 虽然直到2000年贝尔法斯特街头仍有军队护送儿童上下学，十几年前两次在那里看到的遗迹和壁画记忆犹新。脱欧等于撕毁这一切，爱尔兰岛的统一似乎不再是个梦。
我觉得也没必要特意去踩他一脚，不过真的没什么好说的就是了
一些简简单单的美好，一个老是找麻烦的坏人
唉，如今和豆瓣品味有差异了。挺喜欢的。我自己都想写这样的本子。
一个本可以让很多人共情的私人故事，拍得如此散漫、乏味又自说自话，实在徒增焦虑。
看过风吹麦浪，对北爱尔兰那段历史还蛮感兴趣的，片子黑白质感不错，但是有点做作，也不喜欢时不时来段歌曲。
震惊我在电影里看到了一部宣传片，恐怕对电影的根本理解就有问题，最可怕的是平庸，都是奥斯卡入围，导演功力光跟甘草披萨比就差了好几个LEVEL
喜欢！回忆像轻飘飘的水一样，浇湿心里但是又有别样的舒服，影像很工整，一些镜头还是很有意思，幽默桥段和音乐真的很舒服
在硬盘里放了几个月了，没顾上看，听到提名获奖才找出来看。
从彩色自由奔放的繁华的现代切到1969年黑白的贝尔法斯特很妙，喊巴迪回家吃饭瞬间让我穿越到1988（捂脸），虽然战事混乱的年代有生存的烦恼但，爷爷奶奶的人生态度加上音乐的结合还是让人感到轻松愉快些，没有那么沉重，结尾奶奶的怼脸拍摄，很震撼，空镜很美！看的时候总是让我想起乔乔的异想世界
3.5/5 “There is no way to Shangri-La from our parts of Belfast.” “Go. Go now. Don’t look back.” 全片最爱的还是Judy Dench的两句台词，后者我哭到失语。
每个人都有属于自己的乡愁
选角很赞，连詹米多南都不违和。Irish music在这里再合适不过了。本来以为会很沉闷。结果轻松有趣（还是睡了挺久），要二刷/二刷，选角真好。小Buddy真可爱，喜欢这种娓娓道来的感觉
每个导演心中都有一个《罗马》，但肯尼思·布拉纳并不是阿方索·卡隆。
肯尼斯布拉纳的舞台剧调度。小孩的表演很讨喜。
