The Freebie centers on Darren (Shepard) and Annie (Aselton), a young married couple with an enviable relationship built on love trust and communication. Darren and Annie still enjoy each other’s company and laugh at each other’s jokes, but, unfortunately, they can’t remember the last time they had sex. When a dinner party conversation leads to an honest discussion about the state of their love life, and when a sexy bikini photo shoot leads to crossword puzzles instead of sex, they begin to flirt with a way to spice things up. The deal: one night of freedom, no strings attached, no questions asked. Could a freebie be the cure for their ailing sex life? And will they go through with it? With a keen eye and fresh take, Aselton’s directorial debut shines with crisp storytelling and fine-tuned performances. THE Freebie is an insightful and humorous look at love, sustaining relationships , and the awkwardness of monogamy when the haze of lust has faded.
坐飞机去荷兰的时候我很浮躁，只看得进猫和老鼠。坐飞机回来的时候心特别静，看了这个决定特别舒服，好看，看到演职员表都走完。觉得世界不是太难呆下去的地方了。
利用音乐与声音把较为零散的生活场景与诗化空镜连接起来，一方面利用纪录片式的采访将一些大的议题抛出并用儿童的口吻去回答；另一方面则在叔叔与小孩相处部分，用录音的连续片段将剪碎的时空串联一起，表现出情绪的流淌。
絮絮叨叨的心灵鸡汤，很容易看无聊...华金的演技自不必说。小演员演的也很好，两人的互动太可爱！
或者说，抛弃掉影片借助“未来式”问题访谈的文本论述，华金和小男孩已经完全让我沉浸其中，心就像充盈液体的气球被一次又一次猛扎，激起强烈共鸣与情绪宣泄，也唤醒alienation在时间延滞下无尽弥散。就像前几年看her，凝视屏幕里一张脸，却看到一整个世纪的孤独，也像是被撬开了今年一整年，一切都在飘荡，一切都在游走，一切存在与接近都是问号的附庸物.2021最后一部五星，谢谢华金.
找寻丢失的、丰富的孩子 雨中离开前往机场的车
故事平淡欲睡，但夹杂的念白和采访还是拥有聆听的价值。2021年的最后一部电影，希望我的收音话筒也能潜进世界的心脏。
such a precious little gem! Intimately beautiful and private, some conversations you can't avoid having
A24. It's okay to not be fine. I'll remind you of everything. Blah blah blah.
华金的声音让这部电影很温柔，小男孩也很可爱很灵，灰色的城市画面和镜头让我总是不自觉的走神。知道是好片但爱不起来系列。
2、如何与亲人以及自己和解？
即使是争吵的戏份
👏(co-casted by jennifer venditti)
8.1/通过叔叔与侄子的短暂相处来重新审视语言与情感，而电影通过纪录片与记叙片的切换来重审倾听/表述的重要性 - 短信/阅读/电话/对话/采访 - 去了解自己和他人最好的方式。电影通过slow pan & slow zoom & melancholic music & black and white来艺术化的表现可能却徒增了一些不必要的boredom。
2、如何与亲人以及自己和解？
归根结底是孤独灵魂的碰撞。画面静止，声音却是流动的，世界被许多许多奇思妙想填满。真诚的互动让我几度落泪，治愈又熨贴。谁能拒绝这样温柔的华金。
A zone of resiliency. It’s ok to not be fine. Laugh or cry, there will be someone who wants to try to have the appropriate reaction.
A two-hour long warm hug/tranquility in nothingness
「深沉而轻盈」，这应该是很舒缓的一部电影，可惜我最近太焦灼不安了，这100分钟里我时而睡着，时而切换去做别的事情，实在不能静下心来。不能在对话里获得慰藉，不能感受到关系的修复和延伸，我浪费了这部电影。
五星
