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.
人生如戲，戲如人生。但總的來說，不知道這戲想表達什麼？
致郁写实系 导演功底不俗 每个人物刻画都只有更抑郁没有最抑郁 罪恶感这东西只对有道德的人起作用甚至是折磨 真正的罪人一个比一个若无其事 否则刘鑫也不会这么狂 松坂桃李演技惊人 已经拿了那么多大奖 相信还能继续往上走
戏如人生 人生如戏
设计了一些有意思的场景，但冲突主线讽刺水平都太陈词滥调了吧？一来一回飙戏骗人蛮好笑的。克鲁兹大概占了好看度里的4/7，太会讲故事了
Penélope Cruz is so good omg yes
当然，这也是自己狭隘的偏见罢了。
很压抑…搞垮一个有良知的人实在太容易了 反而像父亲这样的人才会把痛苦都转嫁给别人身上以此来逃避自己对女儿生前的刻薄冷漠
有感于脑子一根筋的男主角，改叫《海边的巴嘎呀路》更贴切
能猜到差不多全部的故事走向，唯一溢出的是第一个肇事司机的死，但那种耻感和罪感似乎又太奇怪了一点。
对当今影视行业的吐槽嘲讽，一切起因是资本家想名留青史，结果搞得导演崩溃演员互掐，电影行业不易啊
哈哈哈最后追求纯粹艺术的导演盗用了他的法子…
拍电影，看电影，看拍电影，拍看电影。你骂我，我骂你，你们骂我，我骂你们。
更愿意把这电影看作是一场关于“人生这部永不会结束的大电影”的行为艺术。
拍给爱电影的人的电影的电影 三位演员几乎演到可以拿影帝影后的表演级别
那场车祸的冲击力太大了。还是觉得女人的道德感永远比男人高多了，撞人的女孩至死都在为这场意外忏悔，甚至她的妈妈在葬礼上都在道歉，而男人永远是先将其合理化，合理化不了才开始忏悔和崩溃。
对电影行业讽剌的很辛辣，三位主演的表现极佳
对电影界开的这发讽刺炮力道不弱 不过也没有预告中呈现得那么劲 潘老师的大眼睛太灵动太会说话太能表现情绪了 (另外想被潘老师指导吻戏
富有西语系特色的黑色幽默加反转和戏中戏的剧情，讽刺平庸 虚荣和浮夸，也讽刺附庸风雅故弄玄虚和故作低调，讽刺富豪也演员和导演，讽刺乌合之众和主竞赛本身，讽刺所有人，外加一些前后呼应的小细节，哈哈不错。
對電影工業全方位放箭。電影節奏與演員演技都很好。
3.6分。 挺有意思的，元电影模式，打从一开始就对电影本身进行消解。你以为这是一部杰作排演的过程，并不是，其实就是富人们在临死前突发奇想，打算证明自己存在过的一种手段。 影片多处用间离、嵌套和装置来表达导演的讽刺态度，电影导演到底是个什么样的职业？誉满全球的巨星真的有演技吗？清高派艺术家是否真的清高？这些都得打上一个大大的问号。
