Set in a small Quebec town in the late-1920′s, this emotional drama follows the life and exploits of Celeste Beaumont, a talented young pianist who gains local celebrity at the town movie theater for her gifts as a silent film pianist. Awkward Pierre Blaudell is her biggest fan and eventually marries her. Shortly after this she bears his son, Pierre, who joins the army. She insists on joining him at the base and his meddlesome, snooty parents insist she give them her son. Pierre is killed in the war, and Celeste flees to New York where she finds steady employment as a jazz pianist. She finds a life-long companion with a black musician and chronicles her experiences in a diary that she passes on to her son after he grows up. Her son becomes a painter and once his own son, Antoine, is grown, reads him the story of Celeste, the youth’s grandmother. Intrigued, Antoine heads to the Big Apple in hopes of finding her.
This movie is an emotional drama about how Antoine, played beautifully by François Méthé, discovers the details of his heritage. This film won many awards in Canada and at Cannes in 1988. François Méthé, who was about 11-years-old, never acted again after this movie.
From IMDb:
A quiet painter, separated from his wife for a year, receives a suitcase in the mail from his mother, whom he hasn’t seen since infancy. He believes she abandoned him to his wealthy, paternal grandparents. The suitcase contains mementos and a diary, a long letter to him, written over the years, with details of her youth, her first job as a pianist at a cinema, the coming of talkies, her marriage, and how he came to live with his grandparents. As he reads through the materials and her story comes to life, his son Antoine, who’s about 10 or 12, tries to break through his father’s silence and sorrow by taking matters into his own hands.
还好当时去电影院没有看这部，但是现在浪费时间看完我也非常后悔
4分 导演使劲设计梗让我们笑，放20年前可能真的好笑的，但现在我一次都没笑出来。男主能跟物料沟通，本来是一个能玩出很多花样的设定，但拍得乏善可陈。女主身为一个精神病医生，但行为更像一个精神病。至于剧情……好吧，好像没什么剧情。
这个电影就是专门过来给人带来快乐吧！！！看的时候真的完全陷进进去了，很快就把那些不好的心情抛开了……
全员东北话可太亲切了，一开口自带喜感，本东北人一把子支持了！
就是挺离谱，包袱和剧情中间感觉不是完全贴合，内容也不流畅，看着看着总是一脸问号
接受不了蛋糕没吃就掉下去😹中间那段rap真的还不如你XX
有意思。不仅编剧没脑子，导演也没什么脑子。高捷老师和其他演员的表演根本不在一个档次，什么情节都杂糅进去，看的很累人啊。整个片子毫无逻辑，台词东拼西凑硬上价值。
一个喜剧片全程我没笑一下，都是些下三路的烂梗。这个设定本可以做的很有意思。最后只想说跟绿萝恋爱不香吗？
作为85后的中年人，这是我小时候特别喜欢的电影类型。现在没那么大兴趣了，但也快进着看完了，主要是为了《法医秦明》电视剧之一的女主角。现在的孩子对这种类型会不会不屑一顾呢？
期望太高了哎，看完好失望，有点无聊算啦为了Lily，园丁好惨是个热爱生活的人。都怪这老公自己作，直接让他拿钱走人啥事都没有了
抢劫劫持，最后演变得不可收拾，暴露人性大黑暗。小成本搞成这样可以了。
其实梗还挺多的，作为奇幻题材有点博物馆奇妙夜的既视感，但脑洞和台词都比较贴近生活，纯搞笑，忘了剧情的铺垫，人物演技方面，配角比主角演的好
结尾略意外。从此，我不再是“寄生虫”。你眼中最丑陋的图案，却是我最爱的玫瑰。当年我选择了可以望得见的三四十年后的生活，现在想重新开始。其实没有任何一个错误，可以随着时间流逝，就慢慢变成对的。除非，你先主动结束这个错误，不惜一切代价。
电影看完了，没看过原作不做点评，就电影这个故事走向，真的奇幻，奇幻得不得了，不是仅仅一个“奇幻”能形容的……
就是挺离谱，包袱和剧情中间感觉不是完全贴合，内容也不流畅，看着看着总是一脸问号
唉，怎么和你形容呢？除了莉莉柯林斯的颜值，剩下真的是浪费我的时间
林更新林狗的设定彻底深入人心了……看他出场我甚至都没太惊讶，认真思考应该是什么品种，不过也蛮搞笑的
题材很有趣，因为很久没看电影了，就想找个搞笑的片子放松一下。整部剧不像爱情剧，倒像是男主的成长剧。如果万物皆可语说，一定很有趣。印象最深的是老甲壳虫，物品也有感情，真的很有意思。还有两个马桶以及狗友和花妞应该算是笑点了。
突发外力作用下导致婚姻关系内部崩塌的片子已经不少，本片在90分钟里更是把这个故事讲的味同嚼蜡拖沓不已，后段出了人命之后更是彻底失控，最后凭借一个女主伪觉醒草草收场，嗨奈飞不就擅长出这种流水片吗
总的来说，这部片子是近年来中国轻喜剧的缩影，为梗而梗，故事点有，但是就是说不好。喜剧片其实比故事片更难出彩。
