这是Richard Lester最好的一个片。
An absurdist classic
This is a wonderful surreal comedy based on the play by Spike Milligan and John Antrobus. You know that it is going to be an odd film right at the beginning, when the opening credits list the cast in order of their height. The film begins with the BBC (Frank Thornton) telling us through the facade of an old television that this is the third, or is it the fourth?, anniversary of the shortest war in history, lasting 2 hours and 28 minutes. England is now a barren landscape, littered with derelict cars and buildings, hills of old boots, broken crockery, and other debris. Forty million people perished and there are only 20 known survivors. The Queen did not survive, and of the 20 known survivors the next in line for the throne is a Mrs Ethel Schroake of 393a High Street, Leytonstone. Among the other survivors are Ralph Richardson (O Lucky Man!) as Lord Fortnum of Alamein, who isn't looking forward to his impending mutation into a bed sitting room. Michael Hordern is Bules Martin, who wears a 18-carat Hovis bread ring. Spike Milligan is a postman who wanders around and delivers some memorable dialogue, for example: "And in come the three bears - the daddy bear said, 'Who's been sleeping in my porridge?' - and the mummy bear said, 'that's no porridge, that was my wife' ". Arthur Lowe is slowly turning into a parrot (which is then eaten by Spike Milligan), while his wife, the owner of her own death certificate, turns into a wardrobe. His daughter is pregnant with a strange creature, which she has held inside her for seventeen months. Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are a pair of policemen who perpetually tell the others to "keep moving!". Moore growls a lot and turns into a dog at the end. Marty Feldman is a wellington-boot-wearing nurse. It's a hilarious, absurdist treat, and one of my treasured filmic pleasures.
梦想与爱情，配上音乐是绝佳的组合。
What can you do?
确实有被狠狠的打动到，加菲的表演增色很多。个人觉得音乐剧与电影的融合很好，当然因此也能想象到批评者们的矛头一定是指向与音乐对影像的侵占，但全片最艺术化最棒的部分依然是影像化的——游泳池里的五线谱太美了。
如果你喜欢broadway音乐剧，或者了解Jonathan Larson本人，或许会喜欢本片。但是作为不看音乐剧的人，这片子最大的问题就是太不像电影，导演太自我陶醉于致敬和缅怀，而没能讲好故事，两个时空（tick tick…boom音乐剧时空，和回忆中创作superbia的时空）观感上撕裂太严重，用来填充歌曲的画面也不够紧凑和好看，甚至歌曲都没能好听到让人记得几首。看完只能让人觉得男主角是another struggling artist in New York，纽约有太多太多这样的人了。PS，加菲演的没问题，歌喉也不错，但是现在吹的那么凶的拿奥斯卡男主肯定是没希望的。
冲奥题材和表演都比较刻意的一部。导演是音乐剧界著名人物，这部片里舞台与现实的实时切换，片里音乐剧的流畅表现可以看出对此方面实有见解。加菲尔德饰演的拉森直面惨淡，坚持创作的故事却无法直抵观众内心，一方面是此类潦倒又崛起的故事千篇一律没出心意，另一方面就是对拉森生活表现不够，无论是爱情、友情、生活和工作中的辛酸喜悦，都是循规蹈矩地拍，可能唯一令人惊艳的地方就是泳池中浮动的音符。说回表演，能看得出加菲演的很卖力，但片尾真实拉森的片段一出还是觉得没抓到神韵，相比近年大火的传记片拉米·马雷克扮演的牙叔还是逊色很多。
唱给女友的那段击中了泪点，推荐给了做音乐编剧和音乐人朋友，身边也不乏这样有趣又有才华的灵魂，都值得好好珍惜，现实世界里因为这些看似不太现实的人的存在才会丰富和精彩。
这么好的音乐应该在大银幕畅响，加菲演得真好！
至少可以
怎么能做到这么难看的，安德鲁加菲尔德演技也很浮夸。看到在快餐厅自嗨那段戏真是受不了了，创作者是不是觉得这样很酷？这样的片子怎么配跟爱乐之城相提并论的？
Where's my Tick, Where's my dream? 倒数时刻，艰难时刻。人生的Tick,Tick。Come to Your Senses，最佳歌曲。For you I would do anything.But you've turned off the volume.Just when I've begun to sing.Susan陪在Johonny身边支持TA追求梦想，五年了，住在破旧的小屋，交不起水电房租，You are still waiter, You are broken.What about me?面对Susan的质问，一无所有，一事无成，30岁的我，怎么也看不出来会变好。毕竟你也有你的人生。
这类电影很少有对我有吸引力的，不到中间就看得不太认真了
《Come To Your Senses》好聽！
轻易就能妥协
用音乐剧的方式拍了一个音乐剧人物创作音乐剧的过程，电影呈现出非常有层次感的叙事，刻意加快节奏，切换视角都很好营造出主人公的生活状态以及心境。影片不乏魅力与动人的瞬间，但整体并没有深入到我内心，无论是音乐部分还是传记部分。加菲演的无可挑剔，但又让我产生换作他人会不会更不同的念头，虽然奔着冲奥去的品质，在我这里没有很喜欢。
生活都被写进剧里，生活本身也自然被掏空。
加菲太棒了！Michael、Susan和Karessa的演员也好棒
其实我是很能体会Michael的，我也不过是一个理想败倒在生活面前的人。向生活服了软，听了劝，平平淡淡，循规蹈矩生活一场。不再觉得从事自己喜欢的行业就是一件幸福的事，大抵是聊胜于无的安慰多于喜好带来的幸福，也似乎可以理所当然为自己并不出众的天赋而开脱。
Sunday里大咖多到眼花，都太给面子了。
这类电影很少有对我有吸引力的，不到中间就看得不太认真了
《斯通纳》中的melody——爱、认同、怜悯、志业、傲骨、信任与死亡——在剧中流淌。好听好看又好玩😄
