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.
未必有所成才算活着，梦想也不是什么了不起的东西，只喜欢看天、走路、吃披萨的人生也很好。（皮克斯送给社畜社恐的一记摸头
四五十年前的中国动画叫“艺术”。期待《大闹天宫》修复重映。
而从主角独坐家中一字摆开小物件开始，我的眼泪就逐渐止不住了。对抑郁症患者来说，生命的意义早已枯竭，生与死似乎没什么区别。这电影告诉我，真正的答案并非苦苦寻觅的所谓passion，而是缓缓的落叶，地铁的微风，食物的味道，妈妈的针线，这些令新生儿好奇不已，但成人早已麻木的碎片，无论它是令人愉悦还是痛苦，它们才是可触可及的生活的真相和意义，生命的可贵就是每一秒的真实。
音乐6 画面6 导演5 故事5 表演5 印象1 平均4.2/10 皮克斯的动画越来越不适宜小朋友观看了，于他们来讲无异于鸡同鸭讲。没想到想从中寻找童趣与轻松的成年人现如今也扑了个空。片中唯一使我心动的两个地方分别是主角以灵魂的方式掉入黑洞以及他在寻找22号的火花时所悟出的道理。然后就，有点虚无，可能活得岁数越大经历的打破幻想的现实越多就越来越骗不过自己。Coco就挺具有欺骗性，但至少拍得有趣。这一部完全可以说无聊透顶(这辈子可以听到如此平淡无奇的音乐而片中的角色可以惊掉下巴；这辈子还能看到以三维发家的皮克斯会倒退回去做那么无聊的线条2D)。生活对我来说就是与生的欲望一步步道别，因为死亡是必然之道路。
神作，画风特别，妖怪为祸人间，蛋生匡扶苍生，一本天书妙趣横生，原来袁公乃国产普罗米修斯一枚也。
#膜拜豆瓣高分电影#
到底是什么赋予生命以意义值得一活？是生与死之间的一切。
是为一片叶子感动的瞬间，是海水覆盖脚丫的清凉，是躺在风口仰望天空的片刻。
演出效果不错，但故事是毒鸡汤。黑人小哥本来就很有钢琴才能，之前演出失败是编剧硬设的。叛逆小妹也没有特别到四千年始终投胎失败。所以这片子最大亮点是对纽约的爱…然而到最后叛逆小妹好像投胎去了西藏。
提醒了我，寻梦环游记是皮克斯最糟糕的电影，没有之一

四星半。彼得·道格特的编导能力已经甩开绝大多数导演狠狠一截，当新意成为了潜意识，哪会有枯萎可言。在三维空间盘剥心态的线性计量，拓宽的是人生的疆界，坐实的注定是灵魂的4/4拍真我。
——🍅97%🍿️91%——可以有目标，但是没必要。
为什么要思考意义是什么？
但是太俗套了一点，交换身体，发现世界动人之类的。关键是，爵士乐只是个元素，而不是更深入的情节点，也不是soul。
如果说宫崎骏式的手绘动漫在用动画造梦，那么皮克斯则无疑是用动画还原现实的担当，而在这些高度还原的作品中，我们能看到每一处与我们生活相似的细节，在某个时刻跟随那些动画人物一起，或喜或悲，或哀或怒，而当所有的情绪释放，皮克斯总能用他特有的温情感动你，他会不厌疲倦地告诉你生活也许没有你想的那么糟糕，虽然它也不知道怎么去安慰你，很多时候只能是笨拙地在原地喃喃自语，但它依然会暂时止住你溢出的对生活的不满，用无声的画面告诉你，在世界的另一个角落，有一群人在乎你，并以将你拥入怀中为使命，这是我在SOUL中看到的，也或许是我真正爱皮克斯的原因。
应该怎么表达内心的澎湃呢？这是一部献给抑郁症（活着没意思）和焦虑症（有明确目标地活着）的情歌，它告诉我们人生本没有任何意义，活着就是活着本身而已。联想到18年之前，我那么渴望成为一名导演，这种如此强烈的执念让我差点成为片中的怪物，直到1年后才发现记忆里最深的是去上海办展期间硬卧床上闪烁的阳光，和朋友们窝在宾馆看鬼片，为订的工作盒饭里太多肥肉而争吵……这些与目标毫不相关的碎片，恰恰就是影片里那半个甜甜圈，线圈，还有那片树莢。未来做不做导演，做不做电影，对我来说已经不再重要了，life goes and that matters
音乐和美术好评，修复的魅力也好评，故事稍微有点虎头蛇尾
电影的结尾，二十二为什么突然拿到了通行证？因为她内在真正有了对生命的强烈渴望。人活着，当然有一百个理由活下去，尤其成人之后你会有各种欲望。但生命起源之初，如果连相信也没有，不会支撑过在母体漫长的八个月。 即便人生和世界有那么多不堪，你还愿意好好来体验一次吗？是的。yes。惟有你说yes，你才能拿到那个爱的通行证，你的火花灵感不是任何事，是你对生命说yes。
