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.
腐女的角色塑造比男主更讨喜，男主角色有些像《阳光普照》的阿豪，但是没有许光汉演得好。从已婚男人到自杀的中学生，同志生活的阴影与青青校园的阳光形成某种反差，导演欲言又止的应该是：生活，还是有希望的吧。（但是，男主人设与表达真的很抑郁啊）
很喜欢班里讨论的那段，浮于表面的普世道理结合现实中拼命隐藏的gay，和女主开始把男主从自己喜欢的bl中剥离出来。并不吵闹的一段，但是感觉超级碰撞。神尾枫珠演技进步了一点，但还是这种情绪内敛的角色，不知道以后能不能看到更多样的角色。
能允许讨论性和同性恋的青春
8.6分，出乎意料地细腻。有几场戏尬了点。相当温柔了。
全剧天使是亮平啊，接受了喜欢的女生和自己的好朋友表白并交往，还是第一个站出来接受好朋友是同性恋并且一直隐瞒自己的事情。
神尾凤珠真的灵，题材也很有趣——腐女不知现实社会lgbt之痛。两个麻衣监督的剧的主角相遇在一起，确实是一场氧气清新盛宴，剧本还是略显单薄了，但好在意思到了，不过于文艺和疼痛的方法而是流畅地把一些可能的东西说出来已经很难得了。
2.5☆
确实有届到，虽然是一个coming-of-age story，但这个文本其实在某种程度上可以跟它的前辈《三心两性》或是《喜宴》相提并论，是关于同志与东亚家庭伦理的探讨。但在已经暴露了传统家庭观如何作为一种意识形态被植入的情况下，影片呈现的还是一种保守主义的温情，而难以做到《三心两性》那样的反叛，也是很可惜的地方。（而且从女性视角来看也太糟糕了）（退社了也能看到小翅膀真好）
8.6分，出乎意料地细腻。有几场戏尬了点。相当温柔了。
畫面之類都挺好的、就是覺得某些地方的處理可以再好一點。看劇的時候就很喜歡這個故事，雖然現在再看電影版就覺得有點男同性戀中心了（畢竟原作者是男同性戀者），但是作品所探討的東西，不論是在以前看劇的時候還是現在都給了我很大的impact。喜歡神尾楓珠的氣質，希望他能多接到好本子啊。
#tiff2021 以女性标题写男性故事 腐女子与lgbt 最终落足于无关男女的少数群体/壁を作るのは自分を守るためでなく身近を守るためなんだ/看的时候一边饿到肚子叫一边哭 太惨了
好喜欢。温柔 治愈。女孩子真是天使，爱他，让他变勇敢，让他面对真实的自己
普世的价值观……为什么不存在包容？
包装在同性恋乌托邦故事框架下的细腻真实和残酷。山田杏奈是什么LGBT友好演员啊www
我还是先待在地球上吧
即使在“非常态”的关系里，探索权力的边界和双方的步调也是非常重要的。但表面的大女主实际这段关系非常的男性主导
纯爱版喜剧版《穿裘皮大衣的维纳斯》，哈哈哈，但男女主颜值还可以，能看……不过女主只是表面上的支配者其实完全被动，看得我内心渐无波澜😅啥时候能拍一部纯由女方主导关系的，羞耻地想看
比起剧版就少了很多东西，只是专注在这个coming out story上，落俗了。不由想起《盛夏未来》里那个吻，绝！
神尾枫珠剪掉你的厚头发 那么帅 为什么老用头发挡住五官呢 从恋之月就觉得你未来可期 演技还是要磨练 哭戏不行 没眼泪
礼堂里三浦勇敢抢过话筒向所有人承认自己是个腐女和结局两人坐在候车厅真诚坦白的两场戏拍得真好，她喜欢的是BL以及安藤，他喜欢的是男人以及三浦。
