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.
三星半。温馨又诙谐，it was fun to watch. 是一部Netflix电影。SXSW2022
三星半，我们身处平凡之内，也置身伟大之中。太空梦是孩童时代的幻想，也是影片中一个引子，娓娓道来是童年的记忆和无尽的缅怀，一个回忆录，一段见证史。就是太平整了，我朋友看到最后也睡了哈哈哈。
每个时代都有每个时代的回忆和童年。很显然，我的童年和回忆与电影中的情节不符，主色调也不尽相同。
希望世界和平，不要有战争，在战争面前人类会显得渺小，命运会变得悲惨....
“得益于”我少年时代美国的强势文化输入
流水账童年回忆片，儿童的太空梦能理解，但大堆的平凡琐事能不能控制一下容量
理查德·林克可真是个话痨。世界在坠落，我们又开始怀念让人心潮澎湃的6070年代，那些关于世界会更好的美好想象至今都还是幻影，热战没有停止，冷战正在发生，环保毫无进展，女性权利在不断缩减，科技巨头成为新的霸权，世界政治在不断向右偏航，想回到世界在不断变好的6070年代
新纳粹主义暴行乌克兰能自证清白吗？11分钟的序足够引发观感不适，残忍足以撩拨狂怒。珍惜和平的日子，别跟傻叉一样念想着置身战时很刺激。影片全程血腥生猛，不适合就餐观看。7.8/483 短评164条 %66/23/11 【IMDb4.3/311 】
1969 年夏天人类首次登月，通过一名孩子的眼睛去见证历史，这既是一部成长故事，也是一部社评片，更是一场天外大冒险。

独立思考，不是什么都质疑。公开报道也有，只不过在美国北约世界鲜有报道。我认为一定要了解事件非的曲折，再做出你自己的判断。我看到一个一个视频，豆瓣上不敢发链接。但真的很残忍，对了前些时候联合国在就反对“美化新纳粹的协议”上，一百多个国家签字，有二个国家没有签字你猜到是谁来吗？…美国和乌克兰，可是为什么呢？去寻找一下答案，或是猜一下……
喜欢这个美国70年代风情画，还有整个美术风格
看到孩子童年的记忆就像陪着自己重新回忆了童年，虽然有巨大的文化和年代的差异，但孩子们成长的过程却不尽相同。同时也是伴随着孩子的生活视角阅读了六十年代的历史文化。还有一点不得不说，看到打孩子段，我才发现一向标榜人权的美国也是这么过来的😂
此片當然偏向烏境俄羅斯人，對烏克蘭實行境內俄羅斯人種族滅絕的暴行刻畫頗深入，相信普欽所述的“新納粹”現象確實存在，尤其可怕的是已經實施了七年之久。
前5分鐘的時候我在想這是什麼鬼畫風，和《阿加莎ABC謀殺案》（遊戲）有得一比，兩個NASA的人找一個小孩上太空好像也不是什麼特别題材，但5分鐘後成功挑起了我的興趣，原來是個叙事式的記錄片（相比主觀的回憶錄更像客觀的記錄片），把大量歷史畫面給動畫化了反而覺得這鬼畫風特别帶感，最吸引我的地方一來我本就對六七八十年代的流行文化感興趣，二來雖然是美國人的童年，但有些事還真是人類共通的，什麼家長打小孩，冰棍黏舌頭，惡搞歌詞那些，旁白吐的槽我都能會心一笑，過來人的感覺。不過，愛看的人應該很愛看，不愛看的人會覺得很悶，至少你得是個愛看叙事式記錄片的人。PS：本片很多新人，但有些人一看臉模就認出來了，比如雷霆沙贊。
没想到是动画片，还可以，那个时代的一个缩影
无辜平民被肆意屠杀，凸显战争残酷，
絮絮叨叨，又有趣，温暖怀旧，哪个少年没有做过宇航员的梦
虽然这部电影是关于美国六十年代的怀旧片，但让我无比亲切的是里面那些童年锁事勾起我这个中国八十后的很多回忆。尤其是有很多孩子的家庭，那时一家人围着黑白电视，跟家人邻里保持着亲密的的关系。怀念以前，真的很美好。
