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.
给我一本
世界上还有哪个地区的人像那不勒斯人一样开开心心疯疯癫癫的？意大利甜茶也很不错 一段久远的年轻回忆就像一个颠倒错乱的梦，回想起来，妈妈真是开个了不起的玩笑。
天性的钝感面对瞬间崩塌的情感废墟，既无法排解消化，更不能凭空消失，只能够堆积在记忆深处，孤僻的少年有了悲伤的理由，也正是对这一段记忆的提取和调用，让索伦蒂诺的电影拥有无与伦比的时间感，情感可以在生命的两头任意折返，却不停留，而城市充沛富丽的美学氛围，提供了不可多得的艺术训练，生活状态下随时随地展现的意味，让索伦蒂诺的镜头带有自然流淌的哲学浸染。这段成长故事是真诚的，也是虚构的，如同博尔赫斯的诗歌，“无数哲学和历史的园地，记忆那阴森的金色光泽，深夜里飘散着的素馨香气。那一切全都失去了意义。你默默地搜寻着的诗句、你梦里的涛涌或如锦夜色中，忘却了黎明的星辰都救不了你。你所关注的只是一个女人，那女人与别人一样，却又迥异。”致自己，致那忧伤的人。
索伦迪诺就是那个采阴补阳，吸取年轻男子精魂的老妖婆
索伦蒂诺的《光荣与荣耀》，关于家乡那不勒斯的回忆，马拉多纳，电影、家庭以及青春悸动，
有时候觉得导演才华洋溢，有时候又感觉匠气十足。前半部分节奏很好，后半部分零碎而拖沓，煽情过猛，另外结尾也太像cmbyn了吧
少年对世界的好奇、困惑、憧憬，生命中突如其来的悲伤，前路的抉择与惆怅；同为对过往岁月的缅怀，同样的自传性质，比故弄玄虚的《罗马》自然太多了。
看这部电影，就像赴一场不知道目的地的旅行，只需完全放松，跟随导演的带领，去到那不勒斯，去到一段青春往事里，目睹一次决定性的成长。
人间指南
如同《年轻气盛》和《绝美之城》一样，索伦蒂诺导演的片子我总是看的云里雾里，不过在这部片子里，这种感觉倒是恰如其分的表达出了少年成长过程中内心的矛盾和迷茫。
10，永远绝美的那不勒斯，记忆中亲切善良的家人们，走过汹涌孤独的少年时代，经历了18岁夏天心碎的成人礼，青涩美好的少年长大了，生活太痛苦，我想逃出去😭
和《罗马》《南方》一样，很私人的影像。那些丧失后的感伤，求而不得的失落，和青春时的我们一模一样。
索伦蒂诺不用旁白
-
a tale of fate and family, sports and cinema, love and loss
3.5前半部分总是会有些许的出离、夸张、诗意以及魔幻，笼上纱般的微妙。后半部分却来的真切，痛与哀总是令人清醒的。更喜欢前半部分那种微妙，或许多年之后索伦蒂诺对于后半部分的处理会更释怀吧。
完了，我喜欢这个电影！后现代主义与casual！小姨的胸够美的！
我觉得这部电影比性冷淡风的《驾驶我的车》好多了，应该获得奥斯卡最佳国际电影。
让我找回方向感
不知道的以为是索伦蒂诺拍自己青年时候的事，镜头太好看
