David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
女装大佬pua网恋男金叉,连拉美基片也开始偶像剧化了。一股子湾湾味
说它烂也说不出口,说它好也说不出口……中间干细胞广告看得我直接抠出了一座地下城。以及为什么又又又又又给我在电影院看到代孕???
两位男主一个阳刚一个温柔,但同理心和善意最终弥合那些疏远与亲近、拒绝与接纳、失落与追求、逃离故乡与寻找自由。最终一个敲碎了困住右手的石膏,一个画上了不怕见光的眼线,私人荒漠中带着对各自身份的认同继续前行。(其实决定看这部的动机是警察趴在床上那如同油画般的古铜色后背🉑️)
三星半。前半段厚重感足,发现男二性别后,人物twist太生硬,自我觉醒的戏太干,男主整个角色垮台。总结:起似大师,落于俗套。
在长达半小时的家庭伦理大战之后,终于抛弃了琐碎,丢下了生活终于寻找了自我。爱不分性别,人亦是。没有隔阂的灵魂之州,照片追寻你的足迹,夜路路灯下的宿醉,缠绵悱恻的吻,终究是爱意打败了抗拒。结尾的处理好棒,终要跟爱情告别,与生活上路,车开,字幕起,音乐响起,私人的渴望早就成了两个不分彼此的爱。
觉得这片男二颜值影响了评分,对比同年的《欲火鸟》《限时单身》《有答案的男子》,真不比这三部差
烂!Mozart Dreamer 和风景各得一星
so 跨性别的接受度就还蛮低的 可是小哥女装好美啊!依旧是老生常谈的包容 多元 这个故事很简单 我以为警察本来就是同性恋来的 原来是异性恋啊 所以其实 性别不重要 爱上的那个人本身才重要啊 他是谁 他是她 无所谓的 结尾挺好的 算是开放结局吧 小哥没有接受“治疗”真好 在一个病态的社会 对性别有着病态的刻板印象 该治疗的是社会 而不是对自己性别认知另类的那个人 没招谁没惹谁 自己舒服就好 何必强加上“病”的名号呢
很吸引人的片子,不只是主角们很好看,色彩和光影的运用更是恰到好处。故事直白又勇敢,关于认同关于找寻。【轴】
风格割裂的程度太过严重,独白无法作为分割线而将每一幕的场景概括完全,既然奇幻为爱情或者记忆而服务,那么为什么环游世界的桥段也要服务于叙事,奇幻并不是代表加入了猎奇的元素就算啊,且文艺气质是存在的,可因为其中不痒不痛的商业元素(公交挤车)又破坏了整体质感。总的来说,如果没有这个结尾,全篇就是一首首短诗,好像全是精华却索然无味…,好在结尾,还能品到一丝遗憾的味道…
网聊奔现多数大概都是灾难,自我接受和认同总是最难的。Sara很勇敢,无论是面对自己的父亲奶奶还是牧师,"你快乐吗?",在任何时空,能做自己都应该是快乐的。
之前和英国朋友聊起青梅竹马,她不明白人为什么会对playmates一生难忘。现在我才明白,“青梅竹马”不是childhiood playmates,而是childhood crash.
创意显然取经了《本杰明·巴顿奇事》(连片名都很像),更有多场戏直接照抄娄烨《Summer Palace》(配乐都不改)。看完满脑子“QQ弹弹还能拉丝!好吃又健康!”
电影结尾为什么要加那段厕所一炮呢,为什么不能停在车站里那句
女主种种令人反感的表现是为了反衬小动物可爱咯
太慢热。我都准备好了去群里艾特春和无橙,她俩都说好看这忽悠谁呢!?……好吧后半部分的确挺可爱(。男主的爷爷为了奶奶永远留在了小城,大叔说“也许我也想做个消防员呢?”被骗气疯了之后与自己和解,最终承认 爱上了没办法我认栽 的笑甜炸了。
Just like your grandfather.
又臭又长。很多情节都与主线没有太大关系,完全可以几句话几个镜头一带而过的。总体来讲就是网恋直男被“人妖”男欺骗寻找自我正视自我的故事。整体头重脚轻,剧情后段的情感冲突与对话交流过于仓促不够深入。但是不妨碍Sara很美,男主挺帅,插曲total eclipse of the heart太好听。爱都爱了,做也做了,本以为Daniel最后一刻会把Sara拉下长途车的,可惜结局太现实残忍,隔着屏幕都不愿给恋爱脑们一丁点爱情憧憬。
你以为他是一部剧情片 其实他是一部科幻片 你以为它是一部科幻片 其实它是一部纪录片
以前看亲情的电影我会哭,变成现在看动物和人之间的感情要哭。
