Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
这小男孩怎么这么油腻
孩童视角的叙事，时代动荡，街区暴乱，家庭纷争，在大的阴暗混乱的背景之下，自取一丝小的温情回忆。与亲人的温暖相处，与同学的懵懂情谊，连同剧院里的色彩，共同构筑他的童年。不由得会联想到《罗马》，虽多一丝匠气，但依旧很喜欢。（2022.02.18）
英国的《八月》，喜欢里面的构图和摄影，配乐好听但太频繁，居然提名导演奖，令人费解。
对于小孩儿不愿意离开熟悉的环境已经产生不了同理心只会因为权衡了利弊觉得他无理取闹烦躁的自己感到悲哀
总体来说电影很一般，黑白电影这种怀旧的形式因为色彩其实看起来还是挺闷的，场景因为灰色调的原因很多内容会被忽视从而显得简单。离开故乡总是有各种各样的原因，或者本地无法生存需要逃避，或者他乡有更好的远大前途，但是家乡总有让人留念的地方和记忆。电影是一个北爱尔兰的城市，对于这个地区我们确实了解的不多，女主角犹豫不肯离开时说熟悉这里所有的街道，这里所有人都认识他们及孩子等等，虽然街道正在因为宗教信仰发生巷战乱哄哄，但是她还是对于离开熟悉的家人和习惯去闯荡外面的世界内心是不安的。很多移民前的心态似乎都是如此的，当一个人足够自信强大时，就像里面的男主角，他会勇往直前。孩子，总会是又可爱幼稚又很容易盲从的，时常让人哭笑不得，小小年纪对于喜欢的女孩行动很努力就很赞，小男子汉的感觉，大概是电影里最有意思的亮点
pop说，“你是贝尔法斯特15区的巴迪，无论你去哪里变成什么样，这永远是事实。” 所以故乡是离开故乡以后的身份证，也是漂泊在外的一份安全感，像牵着风筝的线一样。好像很多导演最终会拍一下自己的故乡，让我想起贾科长说的回望故乡赋予我们获取看世界的最初的经验。
摄影很好，但是我对于这部和罗马真的完全不感冒
童年的故乡，离开的人总有一天会回想起，那是最深层的记忆，早已融入自己的潜意识，成为自我的一部分。我唯一接受不了的是葬礼之后的歌舞，沉浸痛苦也不能太久，但是失去至亲之后紧接着表现欢乐就太过薄情了，痛苦更能让人成长。
2022年的二月末又看了一遍，竟然不知道曾经看过，然而这次感悟颇深，给4颗星🌟🌟🌟🌟
关于故乡的往事，形式感很强，但是剧作以及视听内核存在很大的问题，摄影和表演还可以，奥斯卡BP就比较难了。
洛哈特教授版《罗马》，故乡与童年牵扯着每一个人，在纯洁的孩子间的爱周围环绕着成长的二元论。可惜太急于叙事，缺少情绪晕染的瞬间，直到最后那个慢镜头与几句寄语，诗意才缓缓流露出来。
连预告片都不用看，一看海报和片名就知道这片就是照着《罗马》拍的……那就没什么意思了。试图模仿和复刻别人的风格，让这部电影从构思阶段就开始失败了。
电影最后直接道破天机，故乡的童年回忆难道不就是关于离开的人留着的人和迷失的人吗？确实和罗马有异曲同工之妙，但基调显然没有那么克制，最为动人的几个镜头是一家人总是坐在一起看电影。所以我觉得无关技巧，导演只是想尽情地勾勒那段Your whole family haves you的回忆罢了。另外，片头的几场调度很迷人。
3.5很明顯就是模仿羅馬的作品，應該說艾方索柯朗拍出羅馬後，一堆大導演便開始拿自己長大的地方進行創作，構築自己心中的羅馬，但其中什麼都模仿，且最沒有自己風格的英國導演，便是咱們的肯爵爺。說到這也不是想要說貝爾法斯特很難看，跟尼羅河相比我反而欣賞這部很多，愛爾蘭1960年代末的緊張氣氛，搭配一個小男孩的成長故事，看到兔嘲男孩、月升王國的影子，家鄉動盪不安，最後舉家遷移至英國的掙扎過程，構成一個告別家鄉的成長之旅，喜歡布萊納置入的迷影情懷，索爾漫畫置入也令人會心一笑，但是多重視角顯的有些混亂，看完並沒有給我種這小男孩是全片主角的感覺，反而媽媽還比較像主角。傑米道男好久不見，總算又接到一個好角色，茱蒂丹契片尾特寫是入圍女配的關鍵。微拙劣的模仿羅馬作，但主題是動人的，看完還是得說：布萊納資源太好了。
3.黑白压抑，我还以为用黑白是有什么深意，但是感觉导演就是为了用黑白而用黑白，就是喜欢黑白，可能
一部包装很漂亮的电影，至于里面没，真就一般般。
看得舒心又揪心，从这个普通人家的故事里，看到自己的小时候，想起今早和母亲通的电话。有的人离开，有的人坚守，生活就像片中神父形容的那样，变成叉子的两个尖尖，从此分叉，但神父又没有全说对，没有哪条路是天堂或地狱，只是不同的人生，因为曾经共同的来处，而互相眺望和想念。
贯穿电影的儿童视角，带出那个时代的社会矛盾、宗教矛盾。导演显然无意深挖当时所处的社会现实和挣扎苦难，他做的最好的，是追溯了对自己人生兴趣、人格成长影响最大的那些人和事，那造梦的电影院，和哲人一般的爷爷，正直温和的爸爸妈妈。这部电影中对社会现实的展现就像孩子主角纠结于“我们该走哪条道路”的图画一样肤浅，但是电影带来的那些切近的生命体验，来的也像孩子的眼神一般纯净和动人。
导演的戏剧出身，决定了他的风格，包括布景，台词，调度，音乐。也极其出色，尤其是爷爷和小主角的演技。
4.一家人住在一个有内战冲突的街区，一群流氓喜欢搞天主教的家庭，宗教对立，反正就是这一套
