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.
紧张和慌张让人很想离开视线，但画幅和长镜头，却又让人非常地沉浸。电影把人类的悲欢并不能相同，展现的很明显，一个人无力的世界，心里只能藏着一件事。用时间的推移，让这些“正发生”，切切实实的感受到因为时间而有的情绪与身体的变化。
女人也想要享受性的快乐，欲望比羞愧更强烈！但是风险全部由女人承担，甚至死亡。时刻担心会不会怀孕，一条还是两条，男人只管爽了就好。
整体来说，2021的金熊金棕榈金狮都有点水。另外两部先锋一些，还能剑走偏锋的来吹，这部就比较常规了，但是也平淡如水，还不如432还有去年生孩子那个电影
笑点很尬，而且和主线剧情几乎毫无关系。如果把刻意搞笑的部分全部摘掉，变成一个更加正儿八经的剧本，观感会好很多。当然，也意味着票房肯定会变差。对市场的妥协，挺可惜，也挺无奈的。工艺水平方面如特效、布景等是肉眼可见的巨大进步
人类社会的根源失衡，意外怀孕的无助与恐惧，没有选择权，无人帮你，利益和目的性占据上风让失衡持续，只能靠微薄的自保力维持现状。
*最后，想起了那部从不、很少、有时、总是，以及女主的演技很棒
镜头压得人喘不过气，贯彻始终的不安与焦虑，一种只会攻击女人的病，很难不让人想起罗马尼亚杰作《四月三周又两天》
像是《索尔之子》的导演拍了《四月三周两天》
SFFILM 4/22 有两个场景都都是透过指缝看的，吓得缩成一团。配乐极少，能深切感受到女主的烦躁不安和恐惧。女主角眼神坚定执拗，很贴合角色。可以看到当陷入这样的困境时，某些情况下很可能没有任何人能帮助你，甚至会离你而去；而有些愿意提供帮助的男性会想着先从你身上获得些只有女人能给的好处（可以联系最近某地发生的用食物胁迫女性的事情）堕胎是一个女人最基本的权利，男人不该来制订关于女人身体的法律，感谢影节在德州甚至全球都出现倒退的时候选了这部电影。映后Q&A里有观众提问法国在堕胎问题上的现状，导演说明天就能知道大选结果了，法国也在关键的时刻，也许不小心又会退回过去，没人能预测会发生什么。
生育是无法控制的未来，是“只攻击女人的绝症，无差别的把她们都变成了家庭主妇。”开了保胎药的以及漠不关心的男医生，比起女朋友和胎儿更在乎朋友看法的男人，只有自己的生理疼痛这么真实。什么时候人类可以进化成女性愿意受孕才能受孕？女人想要性交才能性交？！
It’s a disease that only strikes women and turns them into housewives.
“这是一种只会攻击女人的病，把她们变成家庭主妇的病。”
笑点很尬，而且和主线剧情几乎毫无关系。如果把刻意搞笑的部分全部摘掉，变成一个更加正儿八经的剧本，观感会好很多。当然，也意味着票房肯定会变差。对市场的妥协，挺可惜，也挺无奈的。工艺水平方面如特效、布景等是肉眼可见的巨大进步
尺度不大也並不嚇人，但是這個題材光是能踏實地拍出來就足夠隔著屏幕痛到了，酒吧搭訕的男人，聽到懷孕只想到可以啪的男人，說著幫忙卻開保胎藥的男人，比起自己的孩子和女友的痛苦更關心朋友的男人，這一切和他們一點關係也沒有，“因為這是只攻擊女人的絕症，無差別地把所有人變成家庭主婦”，可是自稱高等的人類用這種葬送某個人（某種性別）一生的方式繁衍著。
身体的物理痛感和心理状态的焦灼在我的感受里是同样程度的呈现，甚至焦灼所根植的社会语境的搭建用了更长的篇幅，我很能代入。这份焦灼来自于文学的梦想、家人的期望，以性别为变量，这一切就要更沉重一点，包括性快感的获得：1940年代的乡村，避孕药发明以前，且堕胎被严格禁止的情况下，对女性来说，性行为很难仅仅伴随快感，而往往混杂着怀孕的恐惧以及随时而来的有限的自由自主生活的中断、教育的终止，或者牢狱之灾甚至死亡之威胁，似乎留给女性的选择就只有压抑自己的欲望，甚至不自觉成为禁欲生活方式的卫道夫。因此即使在发现怀孕以后，女主角的焦灼里没有后悔这一重情绪，大概也可以是一种带有自毁意味的报复？我绝不压抑。而在今天，反堕胎法案的通过是「正发生」的事实。
可能不是堕胎三部曲里最好的一部，但却是让我哭出来的那一部。再早个几年我可能还会抵触这种题材的片子，至少现在不会了，有的故事讲多少遍都不嫌多，只要你敢拍我就敢看。A woman can be destroyed but not defeated. 女性并不等同于弱者，你可以千万次伤害我，但是你别想打败我。
看起来真的太痛了，与此同时，计生协几天前刚发布的未婚人群人工流产干预行动，和电影相呼应，正如电影名一样，正发生，happening
由于一直联想432，震撼是大打折扣的，尤其是有些调度上的设计。影片没有去拍身体上的变化，主要拍脸和上半身，景别也很小，效果是很个人、很情绪、很生理的；432更外部、更观察、更制度、更理性。当然，这部也有很制度性的无助：周围关系里没有任何实质性的帮助，讽刺的是大家口中谈的还都是加缪萨特共产主义，身边人则被全然漠视。从这个角度看，《正发生》是对这个时代一个完全不同的注解。60年代这个背景固然可以拿掉，但放在历史语境下其实有着更重要的意义。总体讲比nrsa好，至少有更好的调度意识，但好得有限。
为所爱之人而死为天下苍生而死，永远能戳我😭
8.5 直面女性之痛的佳作，对自然、对男性、对陈规一次声嘶力竭的质问，不见血但痛感极深。仿照新浪潮的视听语言，搭载沉甸甸的社会议题依然生效。1.33画幅+手持+浅景深，让主角置身于危险处境之中，也令观众在恐惧面前无处可逃。摄影机时刻凝视着面孔，见证倒计时下心理病变逐步滋长，等待某个时机在镜头之外发生爆炸。配乐冷如冰雨敲打窗棂，看似阳光的结局仍藏着无人可答的试卷。导演竟是记者出道，无法不为她的勇气献以掌声。
