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.
最出彩的是瑞斯 伊凡斯的表演了，男主儿子的死亡出乎我意料，不过真实地反映出战争的残酷，不听父母话的儿子得到血的教训，可惜没有回头路，交代了王牌特工的起源。
儿子在战场上被误杀那段很突然，让我印象深刻，编剧还是很努力的，这下忘不掉了。
救命，我以为那个光头是图齐大叔，谁懂……虽然一开始就看出来某人不对劲。另外，马修沃恩到底在干嘛啊？？？一枪崩了那谁？？（虽然但是，动作场面是好看的（回过头想想，的确是前半小时就wtf，整个一出恶搞
动作戏不错，斗杀拉斯普丁段落是最大亮点。对这种历史大格局下的恶趣味我还蛮喜欢的。原来不能引进是因为列宁，最后希特勒出场让我对下一部充满期待。
稍微有点亮点的在战场上的那一段片段，其他剧情都乱来一通。
花里胡哨没有实用价值但好看的动作设计，对历史的戏谑与冒犯，以及英国贵族范。除此之外没有别的看点。
其实没看完。有点沉闷平庸无趣。其基础价值观非常low，说明讲英语的白人与中日韩的共同点远比平时大家以为的多。大众电影的价值观要服从观众，偌大投资，不会搞错观众的价值观；本片的是什么呢：我族最优（英贵族德才俱佳，德俄昏庸。简中人常以为这种直白的lowB民族主义是中韩独有，其实看多点日本影视动画会发现日本亦然，只是多点自卑，而中韩多点自大），矮化其他群体（男人冲前，女人黑人忠心辅佐。中日韩也有，例如韩《与神同行2》三人组也是高丽人带头，契丹人、女真人被韩收养作小弟小妹），给自己道德贴金的同时丑化反抗者（大反派是苏格兰民族主义者，他为解放苏格兰不惜将全世界拖入战火。这种手法在日本动画非常多见，比如《心理测量者》大反派是追求自由反system的KB分子。此编剧手法客观上为观众代入主角方洗清罪感）。黑pox加1分。
冲下车门也是冲出父母保护。十架伸出的匕首披着羊皮的狼。桌上轮舞像是高加索。儿子戏剧性横死的时候崩坏，无力的悲剧。拔剑的时候黑白幻灯片开炮。不会想到沙皇全家合影下一瞬间是被击毙。越来越像晚会和评书化了。和平主义转向重拳出击已经刺激不了大众的头脑了，没有离经叛道的快感。
虽然没抱任何希望，但也没想到The King's Man会这么烂，很难想象与第一部Kingsman是同一个导演的作品，马修·沃恩有种英国王晶的即视感了。
无聊,但是比上一部美国分kingsman好看... 上一部实在是太无厘头了
rara~~rasputin lover of the Russian Queen
放低期待值之后没有想象的那么难了，也符合王男一贯嘴上manners maketh man，实际nothing really matters的“虚无”世界观，特别是这个源起居然是个父承子志的故事，玩笑开得有点漂亮。可惜我们古迪老师出场太少了…p.s. 看评论区把爆米花片上升到历史课，搁那儿上纲上线地破防，真是比电影本身还精彩啊哈哈哈哈哈
这么看阿汤哥还是厉害，老白男拍特工片实在太恐怖了，Ralph叔滤镜直接碎光。
看着他爸喝下那杯酒我就知道儿子要为单纯热血买单了，妖僧放弃新鲜可口的儿子选择了老爸那里真的哭笑不得，拉尔夫的魅力无人可挡哈哈哈哈哈！这部片子的反派也太弱了，这么弱的反派控制这么一批牛轰轰的人是怎么做到的被洗脑了？？？还有英国人也太能埋汰战斗民族了吧
坏人神教師太正了点，又邪又上脑！
感觉导演是能拍出观众想看的东西的，但是他没有，他就拍了他想看的，so。
另外唯一让人眼前一亮的当属Ralph Feinnes与David Kross两位在《The reader》之后的再次合作。
谁想看这个起源故事？我们都想看后续和精彩的打斗枪战，电影在大部分无聊对白中度过
这个系列做到这一部，基本也就到头了吧。这么好的一个新故事，才第三部就垮成这样了。不仅第一部所有的优点都没能延续，而且不尊重历史胡编瞎改侮辱观众智商。一个怎么拦都拦不住的非要死在一线的贵公子，一个暗地里推动欧洲风云却喜欢住在鸟不拉屎的山顶的大人物，还有一个凭一己之力力挽狂澜后建立王牌特工的头发越来越少却依旧很帅的男人，都不如舔腿的俄罗斯妖僧有意思。可见，这部电影是真没什么看点。
但是最最最最让人难以忍受的是抹黑列宁同志，除此之外还是挺不错的。
