Set in a small Quebec town in the late-1920′s, this emotional drama follows the life and exploits of Celeste Beaumont, a talented young pianist who gains local celebrity at the town movie theater for her gifts as a silent film pianist. Awkward Pierre Blaudell is her biggest fan and eventually marries her. Shortly after this she bears his son, Pierre, who joins the army. She insists on joining him at the base and his meddlesome, snooty parents insist she give them her son. Pierre is killed in the war, and Celeste flees to New York where she finds steady employment as a jazz pianist. She finds a life-long companion with a black musician and chronicles her experiences in a diary that she passes on to her son after he grows up. Her son becomes a painter and once his own son, Antoine, is grown, reads him the story of Celeste, the youth’s grandmother. Intrigued, Antoine heads to the Big Apple in hopes of finding her.
This movie is an emotional drama about how Antoine, played beautifully by François Méthé, discovers the details of his heritage. This film won many awards in Canada and at Cannes in 1988. François Méthé, who was about 11-years-old, never acted again after this movie.
From IMDb:
A quiet painter, separated from his wife for a year, receives a suitcase in the mail from his mother, whom he hasn’t seen since infancy. He believes she abandoned him to his wealthy, paternal grandparents. The suitcase contains mementos and a diary, a long letter to him, written over the years, with details of her youth, her first job as a pianist at a cinema, the coming of talkies, her marriage, and how he came to live with his grandparents. As he reads through the materials and her story comes to life, his son Antoine, who’s about 10 or 12, tries to break through his father’s silence and sorrow by taking matters into his own hands.

冲着国产科幻片这个名头去电影院看的，看之前上网做了一下功课，发现是三个人（其实也有四个人啦）、十四天、一百万的时候，心里面其实感觉有点悬的，期望值已经被降低了，但最后整片看下来其实还是挺不错的。电影的质感、完成度还是很不错的片子有细节铺垫，但一开始的时候并不知道，到看完回想起来才会发现原来是铺垫。总体来说还是挺不错的，可以一看。

这种感觉，这种镜头，这种叙事真的很好莱坞的感觉，我一开始总有种违和感，怎么是中国人在演，这到底是哪国？林场，美式别墅，还有枪…
乔治克鲁尼这几年明显跑偏了，拍东西越来越寡淡无聊，催眠利器。
失德艺人打包买一赠一之作么。电影本身也无聊。可能这个题材的日本电影有太多朱玉在前了。
片子还行，节奏不够紧凑，稍有点拖沓，不是很能抓人眼球，有些地方的逻辑也不是很说得通，很多地方可以展开说没有展开，不该太花时间的地方又花费太多片长。但在国产片里来说，算得上是佳作了，景色拍得很美，演员不是帅哥美女但是耐看，有些地方颇有点耐人寻味，值得二刷发现更多细节，小成本拍出了一套好戏。希望国产片还会有更多类似的好作品，不再是满目垃圾脑残片的天下。打四分，零点五分是鼓励分。
感谢组织给的点映观看名额。真的好看。三个人0特效的科幻烧脑剧，讲真，国产电影请按照这个标准给我内卷。那些狗屎资本来看看，看看别人的，没钱有景，没钱有演技，没钱有剧本，没钱有运镜……十多天拍出来的的电影，我特妈看了个爽！另外在这几年的清水电影里，我竟然看到了吻戏，好激动啊……
erin推荐。挺喜欢的。记着了lower-upper-middle class，看完了想读小说。这种家庭/成长/作家自传题材本来就是对大部分人都有共鸣的。70年代配乐好评，虽然有些场景拍得像mv。没想到是乔治克鲁尼执导的，对他的之前印象还是迎娶白富美女律师。
B站看了up主雷神很多期视频，才发现他是这片的导演，土猛土猛的
女主应该如何面对别的空间里同样丧子的自己，如何守护她的“儿子”呢
（再一次看东出昌大的时候代入了D……）
“我希望他能成为那种，在平凡小事上感到幸福的人。”
理由?并不需要
一直看不懂这种平行空间的谁是谁，一切都可以用梦，要不就是精神分裂来解释，哈哈哈
戏外 ：妻子孕期 东出轨。
大本表演牛了。片子在很多时候都是一笔带过，不够深入。
原来是抖音关注的编剧雷神拍的，来看一下。不好不坏吧，嗯！
两星半吧，剧本有点糙，主角的心理变化走向本应是决定整部电影的主题的，差那么一口气没拔起来。设定被玩烂了没玩出新花样，整体平平无奇，有彗星在前，又不如彗星的节奏和紧张感。人性在这种情境下居然还这么善良（冷静）？听到儿子还活着的时候，立刻开枪杀了她不是更符合那种经历诡异事件后心理变化吗？
片中的一些东西还是值得拿来讨论的，例如说必须得杀掉另一个时空的自己代替她，好像和彗星的结尾是一样的。虽然还是有些bug经不起推敲吧，但整体还是可以。
