美国独立电影佳作。尽管有美剧内容的倾向,节奏感把握不妙,但是反映出的主题却相当动人真挚。将一件原本简单的事用最绵密的口吻叙述出来,饱含东方人的思维态度与诠释手法。
华裔导演拍出来的片,看下去都是需要耐心的!题材值四分!男主演技确实最让人尴尬,与其他角色的化学反应不够,很冷场!电影冗长拖沓,不够成熟,淡得像一杯水!但作为独立电影,深深地刺痛了我的心,诚意十足!!
几乎是在读小说了,画面多数时候只在充当辅助叙事的角色(所以也有点长)。某种程度上来说比Any Day Now的抓马强,只是剪辑有点捉鸡......
白开水
前面好拖沓,太拖沓了,勉勉强强看下来,故事也不是很喜欢,华裔导演演技真不咋的,还是好好做你的导演吧,看下来就是小男孩比较可爱罢了
到处有绝望以及没有说出口的歧视。在病房里,作为非家属不能探望自己喜欢的人,即使他快死了。法律上没有保障,甚至没有任何权利去拥有爱。影片有许许多多的细节,回忆现实穿插,对比更显悲凉。Joey是个很好很善良的人,温柔隐忍地对待这个残忍的世界。明知道无望却只能等待尝试,一次又一次。好心酸。
导演到底是在拍电影还是公益广告?愚蠢直白的流水账剧情偏偏还弄得像文艺片一样缓慢,本来好好的题材你装个什么逼!
导演自导自演,表演略微生硬,片长过长,但都影响不了全篇散发的浓浓的东方式的爱
大多数时间都是在倾听。真的很长,却能感觉到那种不做作的真诚。
实在是太长了 感觉根本没必要啊 不过中间还是有泪点有尿点 总体来讲还是个很不错的故事
除了可以略微删减的长镜头,这片的情感充沛得能冲垮银幕。
希望本片的成功能够帮助华裔男主早日找回生活的信心,战胜面瘫。
其实片子的故事还不错 就是插叙的乱 太长了
导演有些想法,但表现出来很冷场!根本把握不了电影内部的张力和细节。华人男表演的神态和口音让我难受。近三个小时让我放弃了。好吧,导编演你还全揽了……
不错的独立电影,几乎每场戏都是一个长镜头,没什么太多技巧可言,这应该叫“话剧电影”,中间有段时间我都在“听电影”,直到俩男人突如其来的接吻。导演的生涩显而易见,但什么都遮盖不住剧本里那份东方式的隐忍、含蓄与深情,仿佛是在平静的展示生活。★★★★
