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.
9.2 A extremely dangerous method，当然是柯南堡创作生涯的新高度，以如此低密度的情节拍这样一部关于人类进化的环保寓言注定是毁誉参半的，关键在于它触及了之前从未深入的问题，及身体异变如何作为内在的核心而非表层的意向，结尾真美。
最后加了个长镜头，推向深渊。真着假假，假假真真。讲的有多假，故事就有多真。画面有多真，故事就有多假。
没想到剧本还不错诶，盲人摸象，每个人都只看到自己的那部分，拼凑起来竟然还算圆满。给网大一点鼓励
因为优酷简介里有美艳狐妻几个字，以为又是俗艳故事会，没想到是这片子蹭人家俗艳故事会热度。故事整体不错，背单词的时候一心二用看的，所以对演技没啥印象也不好评价，听台词男主挺板的，部分特效整的中不中西不西的跟毒液似的，梦回好莱坞了属于是
不是对国产电影不支持，都沦为网剧了能不能搞些有意思的东西？我还是喜欢纯鬼神，局中局戏中戏的类型看得很无趣
兴安岭猎人的编剧，有点东西。。故事的最后希望只是个故事吧。
把一个个看似无关的狐仙传说串联成一个悲剧的真相。
网络大电影在重重限制下还能拍出罗生门的感觉 值得支持
片子还是有点《罗生门》的意境和感觉的，没有怪力乱神的故事倒是很好的反映了人性的本质，算是一部不错的网大，强于很多院线电影
6/10。开头镜头是在海滩游戏的小孩和背景搁浅的船，很快演化出消解塑料的器官的小孩被母亲拿枕头闷死，这具尸体又在结尾被当成解剖艺术来对待，于是开头成为主题的预示，满载着人类美好理想的船以生锈和倾覆完结，暗喻了病态追求身体操纵快感和技术进步的文明异化，而索尔躺着的那张形如甲虫脚足倒立的兰花床，象征着身体和无机物的融合。柯南伯格将未来环境中明朗的设定全部抹掉，用连接肢体的奇怪装置、切割与观看来唤起身体感知，在表演者引领观众集体高潮的戏中，身体外部长出无数耳朵的男舞者、操纵机器手臂打开切口的艺术家夫妻，都将异化和被破坏的身体展示在舞台上，并被观众的目光所凝视，演员的身体永远是被消费的对象，失掉了身体疼痛的未来人，只有看他人将性欲与痛苦的情绪外化到身体上，才能感知到身体和情绪的连接，这无疑是令人悲伤的。
不错不错，国产恐怖片里难得看的下去的，本来想打三星的，多打一星以作鼓励吧
的确是被名字耽误的好片，同一件事通过不同人的嘴里说出来，就成了罗生门。
故事比较有意思，从不同人嘴里讲出来到底哪个是真相。戏子残杀那段个人觉得是高潮。彩蛋没看明白
网大拍成这样很牛了吧，每个人在自己叙述的故事里都是正直的，但在客观叙事下做的事情却比怪力乱神更可怕……
对未来工业化人类进化的猜想与担忧 看了其他人的理解 大受震撼 柯南伯格的有些片子奇奇怪怪但不会让人反感 反倒是怪自己没达到那种高度 当然选角还是很重要的 谁不想和维果叔亲亲
看来关于福柯—德勒兹的肉体感官哲学这一块得需要狠补一口了。柯南伯格一贯的悬疑兼生物科技题材，不过本片有点难理解。导演弱化了以往那种夸张恶心的视效张力，而是沿着缓和流动的肉体哲学乐章来演奏，生物器官的新增与割除以艺展的形式来摄人心魄；肉身痛苦的美学伴随着新型荷尔蒙的分泌诠释着一种精神上的新式性交；进食塑料的消化系统可以遗传给后代；新增器官仿佛被纹身化和咒印化；政治隐喻和间谍情报双线绵延；“身体即现实”的哲学口号使传统人道主义立场显得毫无意义；关于左派食塑者、钻脑狂和右派黑人警察、器官注册员的隐喻纷争我倒是没有考虑到；复古破旧的布场背景是亮点，有人说是对上世纪各种文化—革命思潮的隐喻；该片的生物技术有明显的柯南伯格以往片中的技术食材，但在柯南伯格的这部电影里居然没有添加中国元素倒是挺稀奇的。
为啥柯南伯格总是「高潮铺满整片」会显得全片只剩下噱头记忆，毫无厚度可言
谢谢这部电影的所有人员、真的很久很久没看到能让人上头的网剧了，4星剧打5星，祝愿中国电影蒸蒸日上。
A-. 有肉体，但更多的是拥有美丽肉体的人类形而上的喃喃自语和颅内高潮（优秀的卡司非常可信地贩卖了这种设定）。柯南伯格本就不是一味剥削感官冲击的导演，他更像是在以肉身作符号，写一则直白且多义的进化寓言：艺术创作如何自我超越？资本垄断如何打破僵局？人类又如何实现更纯粹与完满的存在？虽然银幕上一度充满器官，但柯南伯格教育我们，最重要的还是脑子。2022.5.23 Debussy
2022年7月13日晚和迪仔一起看完。“山村狐妻”真的是再现了一个离奇民间传说的形成和演化过程。另外数个人讲述故事的数个角度，包含个人私利的考量和择取，镜头摄入的范围与时长，逻辑的先后叠套覆盖，简直就是小说有限视角的示例。人心不足蛇吞象，闭塞空间的愚昧与险恶其实古往今来已经有很多范本了，这样的尝试国内外不算是全新，但至少能比正序叙述要更添恍然大悟的一个结尾。
