On a hot summer afternoon in New York, Emma Jones gossips with other neighbors in her residential building about the affair that Mrs. Anna Maurrant and the milkman Steve Sankey are having. When the rude and unfriendly Mr. Frank Maurrant arrives, they change the subject. Meanwhile, their teenage daughter Rose Maurrant is being sexually pressured by her married boss Mr. Bert Easter. She does however very much like her kind young Jewish neighbor Sam, who has a serious crush on her.
The next morning, Frank Maurrant tells his wife that he is traveling to Stamford on business. Mrs. Maurrant meets the gentle Sankey in her apartment, but out of the blue Frank comes back home. He realizes his wife is upstairs with Sankey, and runs upstairs. We hear shots and see the two men struggling as Sankey tries to escape through the window. Maurrant runs out with a gun. He has killed Sankey and fatally wounded his wife.
Maurrant is apprehended and is led away by police. He apologizes to his daughter Rose, who will now have to take care of herself and her young brother without either parent. Rose's boss offers once again to set her up in her own apartment, but she refuses. Then she sees Sam, and tells him she wants to leave the city. Sam pleads with her to let him go with her, but she tells him it will be better for the two of them to have a couple of years apart before they consider becoming a couple. Rose walks off down the street by herself.
这孩子和他妈是不是有点大病？当然舅舅啰哩啰嗦也不咋招人喜欢……Mike Mills温吞大师
男人够慈祥和男孩够漂亮到何时都能凑一部亲情高分剧
8.1/通过叔叔与侄子的短暂相处来重新审视语言与情感，而电影通过纪录片与记叙片的切换来重审倾听/表述的重要性 - 短信/阅读/电话/对话/采访 - 去了解自己和他人最好的方式。电影通过slow pan & slow zoom & melancholic music & black and white来艺术化的表现可能却徒增了一些不必要的boredom。
- "No,I don't,you do. You're stupid."
Miles总是给每个角色最大的尊重，在他的电影里每个人都值得被爱被倾听。这部新作剧作层面明显不如前两作，但依然保持着细腻敏感。孤儿扮演这个设定很绝，侄子和叔叔互相拯救，依然保留学习成长的主题，温柔真的可以拯救一切。
孩子难带但可爱，如同光明的未来难以孕育，但总要有点手拉手的信念。
摄影和会画面格外舒服，也许不会有太强的故事情节或者戏剧性，但对比一下看看站在城市外来看城市还是蛮有意思
1. 孩子很像是本色出演，否则演技太高超了。
a pure person, a pure movie
我们也许通过别人发现自己，也通过自省发现自己。come on，come on
「深沉而轻盈」，这应该是很舒缓的一部电影，可惜我最近太焦灼不安了，这100分钟里我时而睡着，时而切换去做别的事情，实在不能静下心来。不能在对话里获得慰藉，不能感受到关系的修复和延伸，我浪费了这部电影。
1、比想象里无聊一些，采访孩子的部分更有意思。2、不懂为什么要用黑白，没有被说服。
P.S.纽约很适合黑白，加州就还是算了吧。
这是啥？育儿教育指导片？小演员太灵了吧，骗人生孩子系列🤷🏻♂️
采访和对话铺满 但异常流畅 那段杰西讲述他眼里的妈妈段落 是我看过最好的
没有波澜起伏的情节，克制的黑白画面，城市的光影依然温暖。很多对白，舒缓而充满奇思妙想。采访和生活两条线都很棒。连孩子都知道情绪是需要表达出来的，为什么有那么多真心话，需要对着话筒才能说？
我应该如何面对自己的孩子，如何和他坦诚的沟通，没有答案，但我很是感动
成人往往会忘了自己孩童时的样子，但是偶尔不经意间又会表现出孩童的样子。本片恰到好处地体现了孩童的纯粹和暖度。其实演员都知道跟孩子演戏是极其吃亏的，但是华金还是做到了，他用温柔的演技包裹住了整部影片。看本片是极其舒适的，声效细腻又绵长，不过我不是很理解为什么要用黑白摄影。
"I will remind of you everything."
电影很奇怪，以一种文本密集的姿态登场，却只有非常少的信息量，几次以为要触及问题的核心，几次又绕了过去，最后只能落在一个不痛不痒的地方，稍稍有点尴尬了。
