Rose, a sweet, small town driving instructor, is gifted with supernatural abilities, "The Talents", which mean she can talk to the spirit world. Rose has a love hate relationship with her abilities, after seeing what they did to her Dad, Vincent, and tries to ignore the constant small-time spiritual requests from locals - haunted rubbish bins, tractors, children's bikes, frying pans etc, etc. Yet when her help is requested by Sarah, a teenager whose father, Martin, is being haunted by his deceased nagging wife, she is very tempted...Martin seems like a very nice man! Meanwhile, in a large castle outside town, Christian Winter, a washed up rock star, has a sinister plan to sell his soul for renewed success. He needs to sacrifice a virgin and puts a spell on Sarah, leaving her in a levitating catatonic state. Martin, bewildered, asks Rose to help him save his daughter. Martin and Rose set about trying to break the spell which requires the speedy exorcism of many ghosts before the spell ...
亚瑟王故事地位差不多类似咱们的西游记吧，导演是鬼魅浮生那位，所以大概就是贾樟柯拍了孙悟空和虎力大仙斗法比砍头呗，不觉得有几个老外能看懂。。
Quite heavy both in visual appearance and symbolism, though not necessarily abundant in meaning and coherence. The somewhat progressive reinterpretation of the legend is hackneyed at best, pandering at worst
美式的假笑，美式的浮夸演技，美式的温情故事，应该在平安夜看呢
against the world, and there's me, and there's you.
因为没有背景而看得一知半解。但前半部分灰白中凋亡一代文学大师、送别和平年代，迎来欧洲分崩离析的那些别扭的、撕扯的记忆，高至诺奖获奖者也需要漫长等待才能魂归故里。也因此对这个作家和他的《钉子》起了兴趣。
有点不如预期，故事新编感觉像是A24在恐怖片之外的支线任务，但蘑菇致幻、异教徒仪式依旧不断提醒观众A24出品。灯光和音效以及人声BGM非常出色，旋转镜头和故事轮盘转出时间的倒错。最曼妙的莫过于两次于危难中看尽不同抉择后的人生，勇气在胆小、懦弱、玩垮、背弃中被锤炼，在一生的悔过中铸造骑士精神。
实在是喜欢不起来chapter类的叙事方式，片子本身对chapter和title card的运用让我感觉是减分的。故事里的时间概念仿佛笑话，并不能让我觉得是导演高超的操控，更像是失重的类比，突然拉长或者压缩，到最后更是十分钟的回顾前世今生。稍微有点失望
被死亡分开的塔维亚尼兄弟中，保罗向维托里奥的告别，非常个人化的一部影片。
A24:视觉垃圾制造工厂，文艺装逼犯的最后庇护所。
视听还不错，故事神神叨叨的啥玩意|补完长评区大神的文章+1星，原来是个传统的骑士故事，背叛了所有“五德”，只要结尾愿意赴死就可以成为骑士，故事很古典。#sfm
（7.9/10）【La Berlinale à Paris】《莱奥诺拉的告别》关于时间与死亡。人生前的意义是自己寻找的，死后的意义是他人赋予的。一个人的死亡，将成为他人的精神寄托。塔维亚尼将本片献给过世的兄弟，与片中的怀念和祭奠在戏外达成一致。
叙事够简单，2.5吧，整体是两头不讨好的作品。局部表达可以看出Lowery的作者性很羸弱，而投身产业条线后，反倒让人误以为是文艺大导被商业制作禁锢住表达一般。与其说是惋惜，不如说是心疼，一个有文艺梦但拍不出水平的尴尬导演。
期待越高失望越大，魔幻元素不少，A24也有质量保证，但是故事内核却很单调
好古怪但令人忍不住多看几眼，这个故事如果用“正统”拍法反而没什么看头。
行將就木的魯班製作最後的工具，一把自掘墳墓的鐵鏟，當然也敲醒了Taviani，而不是Pirandello。
风格非常诡奇迷幻的电影 画风配乐都很棒
# 72 Berlinale 主竞赛# 值得金熊

8/10.
这个世界充满了奥秘，我们只是身着绿衣的骑士，去追寻一种“荣耀”的理想生活
