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.
代入一下现实生活针对女性的种种恶意和犯罪，这片分明是写实现实主义了。（被跟踪警察毫不在意、神父替男性施暴说话、熊孩子裸男和房东的种种不适行为在生活中都无处不在）身为女性就是不得不面对随时可能发生的“恐怖片”场景，run & fight
哇哦！！！我竟然有点懂为啥上古段剧情不需要出现子女了——来看乌梅自体繁殖啊！
空镜什么都挺美的，一到最后就无力收尾，希望nope别走这个路线
好看！太好看了！称得上2022年度前三恐怖片。甚至仿佛能和女主共情，彻底把自己带入进去了。
没看懂说实话，不过被男人生孩子内段震到了，就这个思路能给五了，恐怖片里算是很恐怖的场景了，👏👏
对于女性来说，这就是一部真正的现实主义恐怖片。
A24真有东西👍🏻，独立电影界宝藏啊，这部有灯塔的味道了，也是嘉兰最实验最文艺的一部作品
觉得立意虽棒但不够毛骨悚然的一大原因可能是Rory虽演技了得 但个人气质上 属于憨厚中还带了一丝委屈 不及真实社会上很多men一半的爹味, 戾气和creepy
希望《钛》的导演看看，什么是真正的女性视角！
太割裂了，前半段还挺小情新挺有趣的，后半段又突然搞起了各种cult
空有概念，内容真的好简陋。加兰的重点依然是《湮灭》那一套类型化邪路，女性主义只是他包装自己“湮灭2.0”的工具，没看出他对于此类议题的深入探究。还有最后一part连环生子有必要拍那么长吗……
Dead husband, countryside landlord, naked stalker, the green man sculpture, then she went crazy…
前几日看到女子被尾随的男性跟踪回家并拉其电闸引其出门，还有最近的唐山打人事件。诸多社会事件皆可联想这部集合多个不同男性角色却共同一张演员脸的表达方式。窒息的爱人、窥伺跟踪的陌生人、轻蔑的不同社会地位的男性态度对女主的反应和行为。可能我们男性永远无法深切的共情女性在这个社会面临的一切污糟阴暗的凝视与侵害，但我们需要尝试着去理解，包容，保护。
别扯什么隐喻了，故事都讲不明白的电影能叫电影吗？
非常漂亮的摄影啊，一种沁人心脾的清爽！同时惊悚桥段又非常给力！感觉有了疯狂的设计却没有贯彻到底，无疾而终了！可惜！
画面好美，摄影好强，堪称英国乡村旅游风光片。在我看来讲述的仍然是现代女性如何在男性布局之下突出重围，从一开始的感情开始，女主就在尽力走出失败的感情，本来女主没有错，对象硬是有病说是女主害的。所有的男人都是同一张脸，所有的男人都是对象的化身，简单来说，女性还是需要更多的power，窥视，擅闯，不负责，这些都是女性在现代社会需要面对的。不过相比之下故事性真的较弱。
看前半段还想：这算什么恐怖片，画面还蛮清新唯美的呢。看到后半段裸男肛生子、裸男破腹产、以及各种身体部位的套娃……看得人都麻木了，回想起来还是最初窗边的裸男最恐怖，像车后备箱的炸弹不知什么时候引爆。
男权社会中，所有男人都是一个超级联盟，甚至他们扮演一个角色，他们使用暴力、精神控制、洗脑，为了保证可以一直吸女人的血，身为女人无处可逃。跟前段时间看的夏布洛尔的《爱丽丝最后的逃离》非常相似。

3，前面绿色隧道相当的美，中期恐怖氛围营造的不错，后期男人互相生男人这部份隐喻，是在暗示男性带给女性的各种恐惧程度？跟踪裸露、不尊重侮辱、不合适玩笑（房东代表的恐惧是不适宜玩笑？，尤其撞倒房东被房东反追这个点太生硬了，房东基本没有主动的恶，恐惧）、神父代表的淫欲？最后丈夫代表的控制？ 对绿色隧道和后期两个cult场面比较喜欢，手臂分成两半，不算什么创意但总感觉是我第一次完整看到，男人生男人这段完整的表现相当可以。 只能说今年的《钛》是真的棒，无论画面表现还是深度上
