Totally unawares, Saverio, a teacher and Mario, a janitor of the same school in which they both work, travel back in time and find themselves in central Italy at the end of the 15th century. They carry with them an unresolved squabble concerning Saverio’s sister, creating a lot of tension between the two, which will increase in the plot. From this moment on they will have to come to grips with the grotesque situation they find themselves in, trying to "hitch a lift" back to the future in a most outlandish way, using and misusing their foresight of the events taking place round that time, and generally making fools of themselves in the eyes of "normal" renaissance folks. Their meeting with Leonardo da Vinci is hysterical, when they become more and more convinced that the genius is in reality a moron. Another character they meet is Savonarola the heretic, who enjoins them to repent, before he is taken to the stake, eliciting some breezy comment from them. If it weren’t for a weird kind of homesickness, they would quite enjoy living in this period, full of daring fashions and tantalising damsels.
The couple shows great chemistry and is funny in every respect. The psychology of their characters is complex and credible - for once comical roles with a depth. Basically, Saverio is an embittered petit-bourgeois forever attracted and rejected by women, envious of Mario, an easy-going proletarian every woman falls in love with. Saverio is scheming, mean and vindictive as much as Mario is naive, generous and forgiving. What a match of talents: Roberto Benigni and Massimo Troisi at the peak of combined creativity. Too bad they will never come back together for another joint venture. Or maybe it is better this way: masterpieces of this level cannot be improved on, at best they can be imitated. For this reason Non ci resta che piangere will shine like a gem in the crown of the best Italian movies of all times. Sadly not many people seem to have seen it, not even in Italy, where the viewers do not need subtitles to enjoy the hilarious juggling of the two actors with the language, but their body language can be universally appreciated.
If you miss it you will have to repent!
两人玩得欢，世上独一份。这么直白，影迷也会消化不良。
金敏喜太美了啊，她才是一直会看洪常秀的原因🤣
洪尚秀镜头里的金敏喜实在是太美了，还在电影里为指责金敏喜表演事业的人做了反击，简直就像是特地为她拍的电影一样。最后结尾黑白影像转变为彩色的花束，真人从电影走出来的落寞神情也很精妙。
红长袖近年作品常用演员大集结。金敏喜的角色也是个喝多了就趴桌上睡过一会儿就自己醒的主。
结论，金敏喜是所有创作者的缪斯，而她现在只属于洪尚秀。
2020年春节后的居家办公时期，晚上在空荡荡的小区马路上跑步，感觉每一次深沉有力的呼吸都是上天的赐福。在英国率先实现群体免疫，摘下口罩回归正常生活的时刻，才有心情回顾这个国家曾经经历的绝望。对疫源地人民来说，这是一种奢望。朱迪科默妹子，没想到一口利物浦英语如此流利，超级奇怪的口音。
没有很喜欢 小说家的电影 也没看睡着。洪尚秀喜欢做实验，这一部想看看演员在没剧本的情况下能聊多久，反应会是什么。主要是演员没找对，如果请罗永浩来演，能把摄影机聊没电。。。。
我并非站在洪这种创作模式的反面，但是这点内容老洪翻来覆去的拍大家翻来覆去的看，尤其连结构都几乎放弃了之后，大家真的不累吗……
影片非常松散，通篇才用了一镜一个场景的方式，其实在通过小说家的嘴表达着真实社会的面貌。广角镜头在美学上令人感觉是手机拍摄的，以至于构图美学基本只有书店外的那个机位比较好。这令我感觉影片还是缺乏全方位的技巧，镜头艺术性也很欠缺。
金敏喜还是小女孩啊，被爱的人会闪闪发光。你说要彩色那就拍彩色，最后一段太好磕了，好幸福。什么是浪费生命呢，她有在做自己喜欢的事情。
表演真厉害，口音也是真的重，care homes在疫情中是真的惨。这类外观就像普通house的care home好像还真是不少，类似于社区养老中心，难怪剧中会说他们是居民而不是病人。
Judy Comer太美了，演care worker竟然有点出戏；打电话叫不到救护车那段，突然觉得世界变得很小很小；When did our lives stop being worth the same?
压抑绝望，聚焦新冠疫情不需要视角广立意高，能让人感同身受的永远是每一个普通人的遭遇和经历。
当我为该写点什么显得不一样的时候，已经落入生活的俗套。自然到过曝的，无需色彩点缀的，普通而日常的才是我们的生活。谁都是演员，小说家，诗人。
没有小说，也没有电影，只有梦境。像个三重现实梦境，简单又贴近生活，有的只是发现生活的小美好和跟随心。
援助，还是无助
太无助了。但是只要还能被拍出来，有记录、控诉、反思，就还有希望。不觉得女主和Tony之间的羁绊（不是爱情）突兀，人物和情节都铺垫得很好。灾难中相依为命，当然会产生爱，作为两个“人”之间的爱。
1）编剧过于简单化了，很多nuance没有表现出来。2）人物描写草草带过，共情比较难。3）摄影指导是什么用心，改抓情绪的地方都不拍演员的脸，各种模糊，是故意这么设计的话感觉失败，如果是抓拍不上请找个拍纪录片的来掌镜；4）场景设计和摄影指导是不是关系不好，灯光设计经常不知道是故意那么黑还是没设计好；5）英国indie感太浓重，基本总结一下就是低成本、shallow deepth of field、口音戏、编剧莫名。
一部只属于创作者/小说家的电影，大量的对白宛如小说家书写的文字，看着枯燥，却食之有味。 小说家在日常聊天中寻找灵感，于是就有了学手语的情节，专注和喜悦的神情正是小说家在思考的证明。但更多的还是洪常秀的深思与执着，似乎想拍出更新颖更精彩的作者电影，却总是在不经意间宣告着电影的破功。（对白和长镜头确实是双刃剑，但个人还是给出褒义的评价） 或许跟《法兰西特派》同理，强调创作者在作品当中的个人烙印与特色体现，也注定有走向极端的风险。不过两者的存在都是褒义的，好看，有趣，细品自有真意在。
无处不在的尴尬就像人与人之间是岛望着岛，可能沉溺于此的人才会乐在其中吧。
