Martin (John Amplas), a young man who looks around 20-years-old, boards a train in Indianapolis, Indiana for New York. At night, he breaks into a sleeping car and sedates a woman with a syringe full of narcotics. She struggles, but he tells her not to struggle or be upset because she wont feel pain. After a few minutes, the woman falls asleep, and Martin has sex with the unconscious woman. Afterwards, he slices her wrists with a razor blade so he can drink her blood. The woman bleeds to death in her sleep.
In the morning, the train stops in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where Martin disembarks. He is met by Tata Cuda (Lincoln Maazel) an elderly and hostile old man who claims to be his cousin from the Old World. Together, they travel by another train to the town of Braddock, a dying industrial suburb. They walk to Cuda's large house where he shows Martin his living quarters. Cuda then accuses Martin of being an 84-year-old vampire from his old country. He has taken in Martin because he is family, but tells him, "First I will save your soul. Then I shall destroy you." Martin denies being a vampire and implies that Cuda is merely his uncle rather than his cousin. Cuda then puts up strings of garlic on the doors to his and his granddaughter's room, and then holds up a small cross when Martin approaches him. Martin takes away the cross, and even takes a bite of the garlic mocking these attempts by saying bitterly, "There's no real magic... ever". Cuda tells Martin that he can come and go as he pleases. But he also warns Martin that he will kill him if he kills anyone in Braddock. He also tells Martin to stay away from his granddaughter Christine (Christine Forrest), whom arrives home from her job that evening.
Cuda introduces Christine to Martin, but also warns her to stay away from him. But Christine instead strikes up a friendship with Martin who confides in her about his vampire heritage. When Cuda later confirms Martin's claims to be a vampire, Christine, not surprisingly, refuses to believe either one. She thinks that Cuda and the other members of her family have driven Martin to insanity by making him think that he is a vampire. It is never revealed if Martin really is a vampire, or just a shy and lonely youth with troubled issues. Christine is the only person that Martin gets the courage to talk to. When Christine's boyfriend Arthur (Tom Savini) arrives at the house for dinner, Martin stops talking and backs away despite Arthur's attempt at a conversation. Christine later confides in Martin that she hopes to leave Braddock someday with Arthur, even though Martin points out that Arthur treats her badly and is both verbally and physically abusive towards her.
When Christine sees that Martin won't talk to anyone else, she buys him a phone which he installs in his room. Martin begins to repeatingly call a radio talk show where he describes what it's like to be a vampire. He becomes known on the radio as "the Count" to all the listeners. But the patronizing host (Michael Gornick) thinks he's just crazy.
Martin gets a job at Cuda's grocery store of stocking shelves, hauling boxes around, and even gets to be a delivery boy for some of the customers. One of his customers is a certain Abby Santini (Elyane Nadeau), who becomes taken in with Martin. She is a very friendly young woman who is depressed when she tells Martin that her husband is unfaithful. But Martin still does not have the nerve to talk with her, so she is happy to have someone to confide in with her life problems. Martin phones the radio show host to describe his infatuation with the housewife and senses that she wants to have sex with him. When the radio show host asks Martin if it is a sexual problem that he has involving women criticizing him during sex, Martin replies that he has never had sex with a woman who was awake.
One day, Martin travels by train to outside Braddock to look for victims. At a supermarket, he follows a young woman (Sarah Venable) home to her posh suburban house. He sees the woman's husband (Richard Rubenstein) leave for a long business trip, and Martin decides this would be the right time for more feeding. Martin returns to the house after dark and breaks in through the garage door. But it is Martin who gets the surprise when he bursts into her bedroom to find her in bed with her adulterous lover Lewis (Al Levitsky). After a vicious struggle, Martin jabs both of them with hyprodermic needles with narcotics, and waits for the drugs to take affect. He drags the unconscious body of Lewis from the house to a clump of trees across the street where he kills him by shoving a broken tree branch into his neck and drinks his blood. Martin returns to the house where he has sex with the unconscious woman. But out of compassion and pity, he decides to let her live.
Martin begins to have romantic monochrome visions of his vampire past (real or imagined), where he drained blood from a young woman and was chased through the streets of a nameless European town by a torch-lit mob.
During one Sunday at church, Cuda brings home Father Howard (George A. Romero) who asks him about the possibility of exorcism and demon possession. Father Howard calls upon the elderly Father Zulemans (Clifford Forrest, Jr.) over at Cuda's request. Together, Cuda and Zulemans confront Martin his bedroom and attempt to perform an exorcism on him. At this point, Martin remembers (another real or imaginary flashback), in the Old Country of people trying to perform an exorcism on him, and he flees them. Martin then flees from Cuda and Zuelmas as well. A little later that night, Martin terrorizes Cuda in a children's playground when he puts on a Dracula cape and puts false fangs into his mouth to pretend that he really is a vampire.
One day, Martin finally musters the courage to talk with Mrs. Santini during a routine delivery to her house where he tells her that he's aware of her attempts to seduce him and wants now to have sex with her. After having sex for the first time, Mrs. Santini becomes more depressed for she tells Martin that her husband just left her because she discovered that she cannot bear children, and that her desires towards him are based on sex and nothing else. But Martin wants to stay with her and help her move on with her life. Martin tells the radio show host about his affair with the housewife and that he no longer has the urge to attack other women.
Meanwhile, Arthur meets with Cuda and tells him that he wants Christine to leave town with him so they can get married and start a family. But Christine becomes angry at Cuda when he tells Arthur that insanity runs in their family and he shouldn't consider having children with her. Shortly afterwards, Christine packs up and leaves Braddock for New York with Arthur despite Martin telling her that Arthur is abusive towards her. But her mind is made up. Before leaving, Christine tells Martin that she really has no ill feelings towards him and just wants to make a fresh start with her life. She says goodbye to him and promises to write. But Martin knows that with an abusive and possessive man in Christine's life, she probably won't.
Depressed over losing his one true friend, Martin phones the radio show host and tells him that he's getting "shaky" and wants to go out looking for more victims. That night, Martin travels to a rough crime-ridden area of Pittsburgh and attacks two derelicts in a alley, injecting them with narcotics. He kills one of them by silting the bum's wrist and drinking his blood. Martin is about to kill the second one when a police car shows up and gives chase. Martin narrowly escapes during a long chase on foot which leads from the garbage strew streets and through a local store. Martin runs into an old warehouse where a drug deal is going down. A shootout between the two cops and the three thugs begins where all of them are killed, leaving Martin as the sole survivor who casually walks away from the carnage.
One day, Martin finds Mrs. Santini dead in her bathtub, after she had slit her writs with a razor blade. Martin anonymously calls the police to report the body and leaves. He phones the radio show host one final time to say that he really doesn't need friends or people to talk to for he is his own person. But when Cuda learns about Mrs. Santini's suicide, is mistakenly thinks Martin killed her and made it look like a suicide as he's done before. Cuda walks into Martin's room while he is asleep and kills him by hammering a wooden stake through Martin's heart.
Cuda buries Martin's body in his back garden, while over the closing credits various voices from people are heard talking to the radio show host asking the whereabouts of "the Count".
首先故事线就很戏剧张力：聋哑家庭的正常孩子；每个生活的细节都稳稳地戳到了我：爸妈去接女儿车里巨大的音响让女儿尴尬，女儿的演出爸妈打错拍子的无措，爸妈和老师那个“尴尬”的招呼…这些点点滴滴都没说爱，却都是爱
太老套太差了吧！如何靠自己反抗校园霸凌、如何刻苦练习获得成功、如何去争取青春期那份爱情、全都浅尝即止或者没有下文，甚至连好听的歌都没有，还不如去看Glee。看到聋哑家庭里正常孩子要唱歌就知道结尾一定会用手语来给家人表演。太水的一部电影了，唯一值一颗星的是表现了面对家庭的道德绑架时该顺从还是该反抗，但最终还是一个追求梦想的老套剧。毫无亮点！
I will go where you lead,
剧情：耶教徒德性、学问最高，儒教徒虚伪无耻。韩国属于那种特别极端的类型，信朱子学信得发疯，一旦翻脸抛弃，皈依耶教又信得发疯。
You are all I need to get by.
40。
作为全员听障家庭中的“健听”者，作为无声世界与正常世界的“传达”者，CODA（Children Of Deaf Adults）承受着与生俱来的使命，扮演着与年龄不符的保护者，消化着这世界对残障人士的针对和敌意，品味着作为“异类”的委屈和煎熬。歌唱和音乐是家人无法理解的世界，妈妈问，如果我是盲人，你还要喜欢画画吗？当影片戛然中止所有背景声，无声世界的被孤立感从屏幕倾泻而出，原来我们从未真正理解过“残障”二字，因为我们的确太“正常”了。当歌声只能靠振动而被感受，庆幸的是，爱终能让家人找到共振的频率。
爸妈哥哥都找聋哑演员,精力全花这里了，玛丽玛德琳可是拿过奥斯卡最佳女主呢,现在就tm这么个支离破碎的角色，醒醒吧! 别生产政治正确的垃圾了。
。。。
才知道各国手语其实都不一样 女主唱歌如果是原声的话声音真的好听 又一部翻拍比原作优秀的 另一部是七号房的礼物 恭喜拿下奥斯卡
好电影！！！这个电影让我立刻想要建了一个新的片单 然后命名曰：“What is love？/何为爱”
好久没看这种温情家庭片了，看得很感动，也有好多好笑的地方。也了解了一下聋哑家庭的独特之处。今年奥斯卡电影我大概就看了两个，如果就让这部得了，也挺好的吧，大家都治愈治愈。女主姑娘很会唱啊，有迪士尼歌曲那个味。哦，还有要给apple的超高清画质点赞！
无声的那段
Always there in time of need,
3.5；有点贪多求全，一部电影很难容纳这等广博的议题，尤其是师徒分道扬镳后较粗疏。多次联想到东坡屡次流放甚至远至黄州/惠州等化外之地。正道儒学求功名，最终是否能完成解救苍生的宏愿，还是在西洋理念的熏染下摆脱规训教条，探求出一条不服命运既定的入世之道——信教是否真能成为另一条开拓之路且另说罢。
音乐会对唱的段落是一个绝妙的入口，它意味着从有声到无声，从美妙与感动到恐慌与彷徨，观/听众才真正感受到聋哑人士的困境。虽然电影并非主要刻画这个困境，但这个简单但有力的段落，使电影的核心矛盾——留下或离开，真正成立。它是题眼，是转折，也是这部情电影具有厚重情感力量的基石。
翻拍片所面临的最大难题就是不能清空观众记忆，观众很难被同样的哭点/爽点/笑点再次打动。我要是没看过贝利叶一家可能还会掉几滴鳄鱼泪。但现在唯二的感触就是摄影很干净，哥哥挺帅的。
翻拍自贝利叶一家 几乎是一模一样 没什么创新 如果故事被了解 创新度不够的话 那么剩下就是煎熬。
当年看《贝利叶一家》就哭得稀里哗啦的 美版翻的也挺好 就是感觉最后面试时唱的歌不如原版有冲击力 笑死Ferdia的高原红一直没变 以及妈妈真是个美人儿啊~
李濬益不知道是否钟爱儒家文化第一韩国人，从《思悼》再到这部《兹山鱼谱》，都是浑然天成的文化。 再次借由人与自然讲超脱现实的故事。黑白色调撑起了视觉享受，浑浊社会亦难清者自清，做官者不识字，贱民者吞云吐雾。饱读圣贤诗书参摸不悟，贱民者扎根思想大地。 平行理想的堆叠碰撞，一个想认鱼，一个想读书。理想与现实悖论，师徒的摩擦，亦师亦友，从不愿和解到慢慢理解，最后归于天然一物的情怀。把中国的春秋百家争鸣的思想再次现实化，可悲中国把文化停滞于前，韩国却拿来拍给自己看。可能不是说他们偷我们的，而是我们真的不愿拍正历史了。 就如反驳现在的读书无用论一般，贱民不能参加科举买官做官为什么还要读书？ 昌大给了我们答案:"读书是为了让自己活的像个样子。"
