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.
A-. 本来以为世界很小，后来发现世界好大，最后意识到世界的大小根本无关紧要，我们需要的只有彼此。像给《Life on Mars?》配了一部电影，看似脱线的喜剧和离谱的情节，都是透过“the girl with the mousy hair”的眼睛，尝试理解光怪陆离的成人世界，而我们也正是在无数次困惑中的某一次一下子长大了。PTA仍旧用他的镜头精确匹配着人物的能量，维系全片的势能在或别扭或疲倦的静止中积蓄，最终在结尾的奔跑戏变成动能的喷发。不像前作如手术刀解剖神经，却仍有足够的细腻与敏锐。赏心悦目之余，还能在寒冷冬日留有不散的暖意，这就够了。 2022.1.13 with E
其实某些段落能看得出是PTA的，不错是不错，但算是成了佳句未成佳章，佳章不成，佳片何以？
其实我一直不是很能get到PTA的电影，而这部一开始真的显得十分漫长，差点半途放弃，但后半段越看越喜欢，对两位主角间模糊复杂的情感刻画到位，并借此对当年的社会环境风气，政治变动以及女性的生存环境等都有涉及，却不显突兀，反而在一些幽默元素的烘托下显得很轻松，趣味十足
《甘草披萨》里劲儿劲儿的青春萌动的相爱相杀可真有情调啊，那些两小无猜的自以为是太美好了，永远都是发现美好的时候纯真就已经过去了。保罗-托马斯-安德森拿捏这种爱谁谁的感觉真是棒。
拍出来学生时代痞子和小姐姐谈恋爱的味道，拍出了真实恋爱的社会气，那种勾心斗角，相互喂醋，冷嘲热讽，挤兑伤害，搭配着一个个有一出没一出的故事，最后又贱叭叭离不开。最后两人终于明白，爱便是臭味相投。
感觉像是《性本恶》和《私恋失调》的杂糅，说种族歧视的怕不是有病，这在嘲讽的不明显是那两个白人？
我直说了，恶臭boy:)小到十五大到六七十的男人都是一个德行:)男凝的还不明显吗。
喜欢。70年代的风，随着时代浪潮前行，一来一往的推拉真的让人心潮澎湃，像是在看那种最经典的爱情喜剧。而也时常会担心太多，比如深知他们身处于不同的年龄阶段，会有不同的目标和理应不同的生活，男女主分别做出的几个抉择都蛮有意思，能看出逞强和成熟，也能看出美好的爱本身。虽然只是短短的几个月，也值得一个HAPPY END，最后真的太快乐太快乐了，像是要融化在风里。4.5归5。
真的是家庭作坊式电影，PTA玩得很开心。（但是我不care，还有为什么会有这么多生硬的跑步桥段
太像Demme老师的片子了，被阳光漂洗过的加州颜色衬着演员脸上毫无伪装的轻松线条，一帧一帧积累起神奇的能量，将年少的爱与时间化为不朽。他们被残酷而温柔的时代推着走，尝到了它的些许危险与伤感，然后拿时间当借口，装作对这种残酷一无所知，只知道他们应该抓住这份温柔，尽情向宿命奔跑。PTA搞起浪漫与怀乡确实太厉害了，就像Demme老师一样，压迫感亲近感并存的大特写，古怪脱线的幽默，包裹着最真诚最动人的角色。十星。
哈哈，没抱什么期待反而觉得很好看。大家真的不要对国产电影那么苛刻。no can no bb, ok?
草！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！！
好奇怪，很沒有魅力的角色，莫名其妙的愛情。
太喜歡，多久沒有看到這樣簡單、酷、浪漫又輕盈作品了！我是多著迷於看年輕人奔跑，在光芒中用力追尋的樣子。PTA太知道 最深刻的依戀和真摯的情感，時常是在那些光鮮亮麗的幻覺被戳穿的時刻，突如其來的無助與落魄面前，在逆著人潮奔向對方的時候。雖然人會時不時成長、產生距離，也可能走上不同的方向，但所謂偉大和所謂夢想終於顯示出殘忍和虛妄的時候總會重新開始奔跑，回到真正重要的人身邊。
我怎么那么喜欢呢！人只有不完美 值得歌颂
PTA的精益求精和高级的审美，就是最大亮点，而本片开场的调度好得没话说
前20min是好笑的，尽管大都来自原版，后面的煽情和小人物励志太尬太尬了，雨中曲很没有必要，所以综上所述确实欣赏不来开心麻花
3.5星，故事食之无味，但其中各种怪梗又让它弃之可惜。魔改后的霍尔登跟磕多了一样背诵自己电影里的台词；跟76版《星诞》男主造型惊人相似的芭芭拉男友兼经纪人，而他的扮演者布莱德利库珀自导自演了另一版《星诞》；最后的定情地点是一家放着live and let die的影院。真的都好怪啊！！！
愿我们谈政治时，还能有心玩游戏，我们沉迷赚钱时，还能好好爱身边人。去踏马的理想、物质、亦或成熟与幼稚，回归人与人之间最真实的东西，就没有三观不合。
为什么一个15岁的男孩能油成这个样子啊 天啦噜 车没油溜车那段没笑死我
