簡介:Beautifully woven, complex and subtle, this film captures an essence of NYC after 9/11. A great script, some stunning photography, an excellent score that helps tie it all together, and a great ensemble cast make this small film seem quite large. The emotions that bubble under the surface, only sometimes breaking through, give this film its strength and its power. Different stories of different people all struggling with day to day life sharing the common experience of being New Yorkers post 9/11. The references to what happened are almost all unspoken, evoked through the images displayed or the background sounds, yet there is no doubt that what happened is a force in the lives of all of these people. Intelligent film-making at its best. 影片講述的五個(gè)故事就發(fā)生在約人日常的生活中。拉布勒斯是一名心理生,他的病人桑的在歷911事件后,對周圍的人、事感到憤怒失望。特拉布勒斯運(yùn)自己獨(dú)特的方法重燃的對生活的熱情。艾基勒是紐約市糕點(diǎn)主供應(yīng)商之一,為了攬生意不擇手段,把他敵手一家逼上了絕路…911事件后,美國進(jìn)入了后911時(shí)代,所以這是第一部直接映911事件后,紐約人生活百態(tài)的喜劇,及他們對于那段記憶態(tài)度。注意,它決不對劫后余生的悲劇反。影片講述了各成一的五個(gè)互不相乾的故,表現(xiàn)了故事中的人經(jīng)歷了911事件后的心路歷程。幽默的手揮去了這個(gè)主題下的冷和沉重,體現(xiàn)了編不同凡響的智慧?
