Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
哇这个配乐加上柳乐优弥的表演，差点在前十分钟就让我看哭了。影帝真的好有魅力，喜欢北野武的和喜欢影帝的都爽到了。
来自浅草的深见和阿武
师傅说：既然是谐星就要记得随时装傻搞笑。他一直记着师傅的话甚至在师傅的葬礼上都要讲几个段子调侃师傅。看似不合时宜，但其实深厚的师徒情义让人非常动容。
剧团一人《浅草小子》2021
虽然后半段中了催泪弹哭唧唧，但终究还是拼凑感强了一点，且缺少北野武本人那种生命力，整体不如《红鳉鱼》和《火花》。片里师匠说不要讨好观众，到头来影片本身却犯了点这个毛病。大泉洋演师匠还是稍显轻浮，可仔细想下还有谁能演这个角色？大概也只有北野武自己了。柳乐优弥可以打85分。
没想到整部电影最动人的不如北野武的一首歌。
北野武自己自传改编的漫才青年时代的故事，故事容量稍小，不过也有亮点，像北野武给师傅扫墓那一段。当然还有门胁麦的感情线。好的女演员不是靠写真的漂亮，而是靠演出来的性感。
天呢太感动了 柳乐优弥这次演技真的赞！北野武所有不自觉的面部抽搐都学到精髓
“我是谐星，八嘎牙路！”2021年底为数不多把我眼泪骗出来的电影，真的是诚意之作。整个故事的结构不死板但又不觉得混乱，全程都能很入戏。PS:就是踢踏舞一出现就让我想到海澜之家男人的衣柜😂
结尾实在拉胯，本来这部电影的优点就是没有把叙述重点只放在北野武身上，而是讲了师徒的感情、喜剧剧场的衰落以及一条动人的爱情线，但是结尾完全落在了北野武个人对于曾经的感怀上，整个电影都显得老气横秋了；另外这部电影的声音还挺不错的，声音带动剪辑给电影增添了很强的韵律感；btw，柳乐弥优好帅啊，越看越喜欢
最近看北野武的传记电影《浅草小子》，让我再次回想起那首经典的同名曲。“相信着总有一天会成名，在只有两人的曲艺场中。”当年初看词中意，竟而不知曲中情。
哭死。竟然感觉北野武跟师傅学技的样子有些像大圣，仔细想想甚至精神内核也是一致的。
谁曾想31岁的柳乐优弥手握麦克风指天大声唱道“让苍天知道我不认输”，去年他终于再次证明自己影帝的实力，扮演青年时代的北野武的传记电影《浅草小子》
师娘的地方很好，影帝很努力了，但也可能是北野武只能成为梗却不能是别人演绎的，放弃模仿才更容易演成吧。
师徒重聚那段很棒，最后的长镜头很棒
同时记叙的还有那个在电视冲击下传统艺术走向没落的日本，那个充满昭和气息的浅草。
柳乐优弥在成名作《无人知晓》后又接连出演数十部烂片，票房口碑双双扑街，我曾一度以为他会像大部分神童一样，出道即巅峰然后光速陨落。
好莱坞味道过于浓重了 这么讲一个日本传记片 我不是很能接受 难道北野武可以？！我不相信….
1、师徒情谊的复杂，在于两人的关系可能汇集长辈晚辈、至交朋友、事业伙伴、事业对手。每个行业跌宕历史背后可能有无数类似这样的师徒传承的困惑，师徒共同完善和拔高一个行业的艺术审美标准，于双方都能带来强烈的价值感。2、倒叙、倒叙、正叙，正叙。3、过去现在的皮鞋的转场，踢踏舞转场，皮鞋传承，皮鞋烧毁。4、师父去世后，师兄提到“你师父说没有了剧院你该怎么办”；5、师父教徒弟高跟鞋的梗，徒弟成名之后和师父喝酒，用这个两人的私密梗默契配合，参与并完成了师父最后的精彩表演（当时不知道）。6、“因无限可能的青春而害臊”，“鲸”的指代，男女主的梦想，女主梦想被鼓励和受挫之间隔着一句话“唱完歌可以脱衣服了吧”；8、有才能的人，他身边的人也会感应到这种代表成功可能的能量。每个人生创业者听到的第一句鼓励“不要回来”
簡單直接的窩心感動，師徒情真摯，最後的笑話很感動人心
