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.
爱看这种私人的东西，扑面而来的真情，满满的挚诚。那些导演孩童时代的游戏、玩闹、电视秀、电影、越战、登月和他的太空梦，拼凑成他写给往昔的回忆录。新冠之下，日子不好过了，大家都开始怀念过去了。也可能是人老了，就开始怀念过去了。总之过去真的好，你爱它，再把它讲述出来的感觉真的好。毕竟记忆是会骗人的，即使你睡过去了，记忆也会告诉你那一天你亲眼见证了阿姆斯壮那一脚。
林克莱特动画都搞的不错，这部倒是没有以前那些哲学，重头戏还是60s社会风情重现，反倒后面登月部分的剪辑看起来有些跳脱
美国版《我与我的xx》，越战泥淖，登月争霸……人类从历史里面学到的唯一东西，就是什么都没有学到。
真心很喜欢这部电影，虽然只有两个小时的时长，但是完整的给我们呈现出了韩老师的一生，极力推荐！
不是一个靠激动人心的冒险故事驱动的电影，Stan幻想中的秘密登月计划只占了非常小的部分，全片都是在讲太空竞赛时期休斯顿郊区儿童丰富多彩的童年生活，喜不喜欢这部电影取决于你喜不喜欢怀旧，我看评论区有人说咱跟美国生活没共鸣，come on，大家都是从小孩子长大的，无论是跟朋友一起玩，还是周末看电视，总有一件两件事是联结我们所有人的吧？旁白娓娓道来理查德·林克莱特的美妙台词，像一部精彩的童年回忆录，我被深深迷住了
电影情节基本上是合理的，这种结局没有什么不好，但是我个人还是想让老师和梅朵可以幸福度过晚年唉
喜欢女主这样的自然美，而且藏区服饰也很美，好想去看看！
看到一半去写视频的稿子到半夜第二天又早起继续花了大半天录完后才看完
当初看预告片的时候就喜欢这部电影了，与现在的战争题材不同，这样的文艺电影我更喜欢
搞得我以为阿波罗十号半是一个真实存在的项目，翻了评论才发现是童年幻想？确实借了一个好壳，借登月讲笼罩在登月计划的集体记忆中那代人的成长经历。一切都与科技和科幻有关的童年经历令人着迷，自由而欢乐的童年生活令人羡慕。
对于米国人民，那确实是一个充满文化符号和欢乐的年代，相信他们怀念起童年都没啥遗憾。会不会是编导当年错过了直播，才创作了那么个故事，假想自己小时候...... 哈哈哈
疫情反弹，重回云观影，感谢不散组织大家在这变异病毒肆掠的世界，再次享受到如此震撼人们心灵，鼓舞人心，感动中国的好片子。人要有崇高的追求，不能被淹没在物欲横流的物质世界。中国最缺乏的就是教育，教育才能兴国安邦。如果没有这些崇高的支教老师的奉献，以及很多胸有大爱的人砥砺前行，是不行的
林克莱特的歌品👍🏻画风特别有趣，尤其前中段像看连环画一样的60年代生活图景以及流行文化赏析。一代人的回忆和童年就像玻璃窗外窥见月球的第一眼，每个人都短暂地共同见证并坚信自己身处其中
美国六十年代还是很强的呀，中产生活有奔头，不过今时不同往日了。
儿童视角展示的登月计划和美国60年代风情画。生活琐事配上画外音的手法使叙事深陷在童年回忆里停滞不前；戏谑登月计划的部分未必是在呼应甚嚣尘上的阴谋论，而是童年回忆里最华丽的一笔，彻底将爱国宣传、美苏争霸等复杂的政治历史抛到九霄云外，剩下最天真烂漫的太空幻想。既是向那个年代致敬，也是导演心目中迷影精神的完美呈现。
2008年北京奥运会开幕式的那个晚上，我也没等到姚明举着国旗出场就睡着了。醒来后的我懊恼不已，觉得好像错过了什么很重大的事情。Richard Linklater一半讲琐碎童年，一半就在讲这件少年心事。年轻的孩童曾梦想着成为伟大的「参与者」，可殊不知我们甚至没能成为伟大的「见证者」。登月着陆的时刻我们在游乐园玩耍，留下足迹的时刻我们早困倦不已。但日后成年的我们再提及这段过往，这份「不在场」的念想其实又帮助我们实现了「在场」，某种形式上。
当然还有天空梦，
talking about being super causal
冷战、经济萧条、又上天了，米国怀旧且做好与天朝的新对峙的准备了吗，这也算是米国的伟光正宣教作品吧
