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.
年度最佳啥的太过誉了，各种大数据重复元素这几年太多了，这种东西只要执行出来不出现大问题，观众大多就都会满意
盼着各种让人窒息的绝美场面，于是看完有些失望，除了一开始，之后鲜少再有（这部御用摄影师好像换了？！）当然知道这是自传型故事，少年处理悲剧的方式是投奔电影，以想象重现现实，听起来实在让人心碎。索伦蒂诺的作品不乏笑料，轻松调皮，同时也能明显感到一种克制和抽离，溯到源头的情绪是那么无助。作品中不断重复的元素，无一不指出创作者的怀旧。孤儿，再也回不去的时光，形成了影响余生的伤痕和主题，在不停追问求索中，他终于找到了要表达的东西，终于用想象重现了现实。
把虚假当真实，把囚笼当自由，娱乐至死。
还可以吧，用机器人反应了现实生活中还是有很多人依赖科技来交朋友，往往忽略了现实当中的关系
Are you my friend, Barney? 哭成鬼了
正如我们发明了什么，就再也无法摆脱什么。
有时候真不明白，为何有这样能让成年人也会看得非常治愈的动画片，儿童式的天真与嘻嘻哈哈后，却是直击心灵深处的探问……
we may all need an offline friend
太喜欢了太喜欢了，像喜欢痛苦与荣耀那样喜欢。充满怪人们的海边城市，混乱、争吵、玩笑、午夜狂奔、海浪和死亡。和马拉多纳无关的上帝之手，是种古怪疯狂又动人的生活。近海船时速200公里的时候会发出一种声音，是孤单，也是自由。
本质自传，人物在痛苦，我看得也很痛苦，就算到60岁我也会为梅西赢得锦标流泪，后面就只想看他和小姨狠狠来一发。
为啥评论都在shit on库克，“my garage”这个梗显然就是在嘲乔布斯
至少学学迪士尼是如何以爱意和包容的目光打量它创造出的那些异类吧。
整部电影都在高喊：“我好孤独寂寞冷啊！！！”天啊！所以人类到底有多孤独？请认识到学会独处的重要性。当然还有社交网络，人花太多时间在虚拟空间构建所谓的友谊、情感纽带，甚至寄希望于AI机器人，而且还得是人类可控的、服从性高的，然而实际上人类才是被控制的那个。想想这部电影背后传达的意义，细思极恐，这实在太可怕了。近年来连动画片都这么无聊了……
索伦蒂诺风格变了 开始讲连续的故事了 开始搞特点人设了 开始让普通人看懂了
不想打星了，关于青春的回忆，没有触动到我。呆梨电影还是非常古典的状态，沉重。
从未令我失望的保罗·索伦蒂诺，这一次当然也不会例外。他镜头中拍不尽的意大利风情，来到了属于那不勒斯的章节。
3、只有亲历，才能长大，欢笑是这样，眼泪也是。
是一部私人性质比较重的电影，后半部分越发看出来的自传成分，整体节奏和结构和费里尼的《阿玛柯德》好像，但是缺少了属于自己的那份深情的呼唤，也就是致敬和摹仿的痕迹重了一些。最喜欢的段落是小姨赤身裸体躺在船头的甲板上，那种昂扬的自信和明媚是反男性凝视最直接的轻蔑与不屑，包容与接纳，就像她自我所说一般，在这个小镇上做一个疯子需要付出何以代价。还有男主从小姨的性启蒙，母亲与父亲因意外死去，恋母情结的愕然结束，再到与暮年的男爵夫人第一次有了肉体上的激情碰撞而得到延迟性的满足后开启了属于自我的成长与探索之旅。萦绕着南欧意大利温暖的阳光与空气之中飘来的窸窸窣窣的回忆，花朵香甜的气息。前边几个段落是真的很喜欢，但是后边是真的有点略显停滞和刻意。少年的成长往往是从失去开始的，而奥德赛的归乡也是他们生命的必然结局
对苹果的影射明显，每个人都是孤独的，即使有这个身高50厘米的机器人也不例外，服务器阵列黑绿配色致敬《黑客帝国》。
1、只有离开，才能长大，家乡是这样，过去也是；
