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.
《鬼灭之刃 灶门炭治郎 立志篇》Ep11-14，我妻善逸、嘴平伊之助（山猪面具男）悉数登场，鼓屋的设计相当精巧有趣，唯一不足就是善逸这个角色太过中二
看得我又哭又笑，奶奶死了哭死我了！
以婚礼开始，以葬礼结束，中间以一段拍电影让楼下的仆人跨越阶层，盛装出席，举杯同庆，每个人都真诚对待生活，让爱消弭杂音。
激动的心颤抖的手，电影院终于开了！电影这条线怎么感觉像那鱼呢？
为什么要分得那么乱，就不能来一个很好的观影顺序
服化道极佳……剧情属寻常电视剧水平，不过整体逻辑算说得过去。观影于鲁迅曾光顾的永汉电影院。
PS. 那个片头的演员表顺序是什么鬼？看着像是打乱重排的，但是也不像是按照咖位的，难不成是按照片酬么？这样的话Laura Carmichael好牛逼啊
喜欢兄妹之间的羁绊，喜欢男主团的坚毅，人生中需要我们面对的困难很多，我也要坚强一点
确实是一个时代的终结了。Mary说Matthew像童话中的王子的时候，真的好伤心。《雨中曲》+《独领风骚》但是起码也没觉得招人烦。希望每个人都幸福。
520一个人看这部片子是一种仪式感，也很奇妙。1. 在漫长的时间里，所有情爱怨仇都是浮云，“人来人往，克劳利家族永远都在”。2.老夫人的去世总让我担心现实中演员真的会去世，还有女王走了大概也是这样，然后更难受。老夫人这段浪漫经历又证明了，和不爱的人结婚对彼此都是多大的伤害。3.大小姐更像老夫人了，回忆起大表哥的神情意味深长让人神伤，而导演问那一句后她坚定回答“No”，让我肃然起敬。她靠在Carlson肩头恸哭，更让人心疼（Carlson真的慈爱）。4.大表哥的母亲对我而言更像一位楷模，很难形容失独后的她，可能会是未来的我自己吧。5.祝福大家都像Mosley一样事业爱情双丰收！
情节生硬，没什么说服力，完全是在为情怀买单。
人物很繁杂，剧情很抓马，其实英文名的“New Era”更点题。一个婚礼一个葬礼，从拍默片到拍有声电影，属于唐顿的时代终于落幕了，不过大小姐掌家的感觉真好啊。不得不说管家艳福齐天，每集都能找到好对象，这次还攀上了好莱坞明星~
👏论如何把一锅杂烩煮得有模有样。古迪子上部打酱油这部失踪 但又不能老让大小姐死老公 我能想象制片多咬牙切齿 怀疑古迪子应该得罪过不少人… 这几年也没什么大动作…
5.31看的，虽然很多人想了好几分钟都不记得是谁，但影厅气氛很棒，笑声不断，感觉比上一部好看，可惜某条线整个删除了，会一直想念Maggie Smith在唐顿的出众表现，一个时代的落幕。其实停在这一部也挺好。
“在他们眼里女人有两种：愚蠢的和邪恶的。你要让他们觉得你是邪恶的那个。”
即便都已预料到，但最后一场戏还是哭死，一个时代的终结，和新生命的开始。抛开粉丝滤镜，这片最多值三星，真的拍得不像电影，Downton始终还是适合电视剧，我不能说它拍得粗糙，服化道还是一流的，但整个摄影剪辑就非常简单，流水线制作感。剧情上两条线之间也没关联，每一个角色都各司其职，现在Downton真的越来越好猜了，粉丝想要什么抓马，它就喂给你什么。
虽说也没指望特别好，但确实剧情有点太散了。
迈入三十年代
鬼灭之刃真的是近几年来最好看的动漫，不接受反驳！男主性格真的很温柔很温柔，面对👻们的残暴攻击并不是一味的武力反击，而是愿意倾听他们的故事，化解他们的怨念。整个动漫主题很热血但又能传播正确的三观，鬼灭yyds！
