After a holiday visit with his parents, Mikey is headed to the airport to return to his wife and newborn baby. Except he doesn’t board the plane. Instead he returns to his parents’ loft in lower Manhattan, back to his childhood room that has since been converted to storage. Unsure of his own motivations, he makes up excuses about why he’s staying – his flight is delayed, his flight is cancelled. A day passes, and then another, and he calls home and work to say he can’t return just yet – his parents are getting old, his parents are ill, time is too short. His doting mother is more than happy to enable his procrastination, while his artist father is suspicious. From afar, his confused wife grows increasingly unsettled. Meanwhile Mikey moves back into his room, digging out notebooks and mementos, calling on old friends. As the days go on he becomes more and more entrenched in his adolescent sanctuary, and comes to a point where he must choose between life as it is and life as it was. --© Official Site
2021-12-04@ Movie Movie Pacific Place @ HKFFF@ 怎么说呢，一方面感觉导演太省事了，那大段旁白穿故事，一方面又很想感谢导演让我梦回用了一个月高中数学课看完本作原著。90/100。还是想说那句前年在Sciences Po上课的时候望着窗外的阳光的时候发的傻傻的pyq：如果我此生注定颠沛流离，那我也愿意活在巴黎。
毕竟是名著，人物、剧情、场面都要丰满许多。
回过头来看，名利场的虚伪傲慢，媒体与金钱利益的较量，被时代裹挟的年轻梦想家，自我沉醉麻木，走向自我堕落幻灭，这样的故事，无论经历多少个时代的更迭，终究不停上演，一切都是腐朽。
剧本很好，但人物刻画有点儿弱。虽然巴尔扎克为了突出幻灭感设置了悲剧和救赎的结尾，但吕西安还是应该手撕了上流社会和投机资本家，革命万岁！
小民喜好的就是谣言，造谣的媒体自然成为社会焦点。连捧带杀，多家媒体火力并开，谁又会想到这仅仅是为了制造热点，收割韮菜。男主有幸经历这一切，即便幻灭，平生亦足矣。
a curious sum of nothingness
空虚的人生故事被很充实地表达了出来，吕西安和他的女伴们都有一颗赤诚的灵魂
后来枪神出现。
名著改编保障了剧情。在这种时候看到这样的电影，不得不感慨前人的敏锐与深刻。放下幻想，认真生活。找到自己内在力量。
原著粉表示非常不满...作为电影来看，大概是要揭露媒体的力量和恶？但是旁白太多了，搞得不像是电影...
Je pense à ceux qui doivent trouver en eux quelque chose après le désenchantement.
4.5 声色犬马的巴黎在波谲云诡间无止尽地倾泻她的幻泡，似乎人人都可分得一杯羹。但Lucien在空中坠落时，大概能够回想起来，下雨天在巴黎穿过排水沟也是要花钱的。
三星半；巴尔扎克名著改编，故事截取了小说的大部分内容，讲述得很流畅，镜头语言也比较丰富。演员表演、镜头运用还是体现了新时代的美学风格，比较接近好莱坞的商业大片，华丽有余、沉淀不足，原著中对印刷业和当时大的历史背景刻画在影片里基本没有体现，这也是商业作品和巴尔扎克小说的最大不同之处
这情节和红与黑的于连好像啊。看来天才穷小子到大城市寻梦幻灭的故事真是亘古不变呀。
Lucien本来要讽刺一本书，然而在他看完书后，说"我无法诋毁这本书，它有着力量，感情...文章inspired，sincere，never conventional."
人生本绵长，点点欢喜多是伤。
抛开虚荣，回归本心，方能成就自我
不知道是演员扮相、行为举止不够古典，还是拍摄手法有问题，总有种现代人在演古装戏的违和感。而且故事拍得不甚有吸引力，影片时长又有两个半小时，让人情不自禁开始走神。
导演对功底要多加一颗星，制作精良 ，令人观后会有深思。 一切为了利益的存在都将会幻灭。
但看不懂人生
