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.
姐弟线一度看哭，父爱那条线有点拖沓了。允儿30岁演20岁小女孩怎么毫无违和感呀？cp这条线太甜啦～允儿呐，继续坚持成为优秀的演员哦！
When it comes to drawing, there's only one rule, you ever need to teach. It's to look.
aks还是那么真的可爱（旁边的大姐后半段狂哭惊到我 明明已经是童话级美好的故事😂现实出柜难度x100吧（感觉剧情挺慢的 因为看完剧太久了吧 有几段戏个人觉得还是稍微有点尬的 不过不影响
我觉得导演肯定不是猫党，拍不好猫就肯定拍不好一个猫痴的一生。
不过男主年纪有点大，还演高中生，我:？ 他女朋友也是，完全不是高中生的感觉
当然会想到和喵星人相关的作品
感觉姐姐的部分有些过于催泪了，太刻意。男主也很不适合演少年数学天才，三十多岁演高中，真的太出戏。爸爸演技好评。允儿戏份好少，本来以为是要演姐姐的，形象塑造也很好，但在这里不是重点，希望姐姐以后演大女主吧
精致的画面，古怪的主角，可爱的小猫，组成了一部《路易斯·韦恩的猫奴人生》。私心来讲还是比较喜欢的，当然电影中的小猫对此功不可没，没想到还有喵配英字出现，实在很惊喜。头号猫奴韦恩不仅爱画猫，还改变了人们对于猫作为宠物的看法。在韦恩成名之前，他的朋友问他养猫是不是为了捉老鼠，韦恩说是为了当宠物。朋友表示很担心他，韦恩不解，朋友解释道：因为你拿猫作宠物啊！——正在抱着猫观看此片的我膝盖一痛，并感到吾等养猫人都应感谢这位前辈。
一个鬼姐姐激励弟弟学习科学的奇异故事，以青春片开场，转传记片，转励志片，转救赎片，最后以奇怪的初吻主题曲再转回青春片，绝！
剧情多少有点流水账。现实真是令人难过，希望他们曾经拥有很多很多无与伦比的快乐吧
小小一个火车站承载着爱情、亲情，男女主走在星空下的林间铁路上，置身于漫天飞舞的萤火虫中，最美的初恋像是一个童话，火车站从无到有是男主自我救赎的过程，第一趟火车从车站开走时也是男主走出悲伤，迎来新生活的时候。一部很日式的韩国电影，得准备好纸巾再看。
中规中矩的传记片，演员加成不少。一直说女性意识觉醒，这一家子只啃一个男丁真的是要命，还歧视独立女性——家庭女教师。记忆就是脑子里电流，实现在视觉上还可以，真想通过艺术家的脑子和眼睛看世界。确实大多数时候，我们没有真正在看。
姐姐的伏笔埋的很好，有力的解释了男主为什么要建车站不离开这个地方。前半部轻喜剧的风格，后半部揭开秘密，回到韩剧煽情风格，虽然有些俗套狗血，但不妨碍这部“简单”的电影感人。建车站这样一件“简单”的故事被导演的花招拍的却不简单，增加了故事的可看性。值得吐槽的是虽然林允儿美，但男女主看起来确实不像高中生，大学生还可以接受。看多了重口味压抑的片子可以看看这种风格的缓解一下。
7分。英国著名插画家路易斯·韦恩的故事。古怪的插画家，别人画狗，他偏画猫。娶了地位“低下”的家庭教师，而且妻子还比他大好多岁。他和妻子的幸福小日子没过几年，妻子生病去世。家里六个姐妹都嫁不出去，他也再未娶妻，一直养着六姐妹。虽然画猫成名却入不敷出，生活贫穷，更因为怀念妻子而变得郁郁寡欢、十分痛苦。晚年似乎有些精神问题，笔下的猫变得非常奇特。总的来说并不是“激情人生”，除了绘画的时候，更多的是抑郁。服装不错，有的画面很美。
六角仍然是全片最可爱的人。被虐的黑泽仍然是最好看的。身边樱花妹全在哭。原来1年多过去，我已经不在本片的受众群中了。
弟弟因为姐姐躲火车去世，心愿就是有个火车站在村子边，宁愿放弃学业、感情，想得到父亲的一句赞扬。姐弟感情，父子解开芥蒂，甚至还有可爱的爱情。
#TIFF Industry Pro# 主展映单元
晚安呀，世界！
怪咖因爱而触及天空，又在不可避免的离愁后渐至偏执；作为折映万物之美的棱镜的一生如此凄苦，世人只识笔下的道道虹彩，却不知一切绮丽所用的颜料仅有悲怆与痴狂。颜色曼妙、构图精绝，只是为了切合传主不稳定的精神状况，有各种幻视、鱼眼镜头，显得非常电波系，这股怪味总让我想起韦斯安德森，因此不能说是完全爱它。
一个实在是让人感动的故事，片尾的《初吻》主题曲，一下子拉回到那个纯真的苏菲玛索时代。
