Volker Schlöndorff transposes Bertolt Brecht’s late-expressionist work to latter-day 1969. Poet and anarchist Baal lives in an attic and reads his poems to cab drivers. At first feted and later rejected by bourgeois society, Baal roams through forests and along motorways, greedy for schnapps, cigarettes, women and men: ‘You have to let out the beast, let him out into the sunlight.’ After impregnating a young actress he soon comes to regard her as a millstone round his neck. He stabs a friend to death and dies alone. ‘You are useless, mangy and wild, you beast, you crawl through the lowest boughs of the tree.’
The film takes youthful impetuousness and hatred of oppression as its subject and also ponders the cult of genius and sexual morals. Rainer Werner Fassbinder simultaneously plays both Baal and himself and is surrounded by many actors who were later to perform in his own films. After the film was broadcast on West German television, Brecht’s widow Helene Weigel prohibited any further screenings, arguing that the social circumstances engendering Baal’s rebelliousness had not been adequately explained.
使用音乐剧作为全片载体是对原型的最大尊重，重要的是首首好听。
噢，还有一句台词得送给我自己。
在拥有这样的体验之后，还有什么理由去怀疑加菲尔德。
诺大可发挥空间最后却靠LGBT故事来燃情。
林聚聚导演的第一部电影长片，能为自己的偶像拍这样一部电影，让更多人了解他、记住他，一定是一件很幸福的事情。
关于创作焦虑的部分还是拍的挺准的，但整体还是太平庸了。
到后期热泪盈眶，I have no time. I already 29.
This is the real life
歌曲的旋律不错，但歌词更像口水歌，至于人物原型，由于对舞台剧零认识，艺术家的悲歌，作品都是创作者死后才能发扬光大，身价倍增，因为已绝迹！
错过了两次《Rent》的现场，先来看这部作者的传记片，音乐剧一般的底子是本片最大的看点，虽然比不上音乐剧的现场感，也继承了音乐剧单薄的剧本，但利用各种视听化的手段，加上不断出现的滴答倒数声，结合叙事手法与剪辑加强了节奏，将人物的情绪融进了音乐，形成了美妙的视听享受。加菲的演绎也非常卖力，将一个才华横溢的音乐人，在而立之年的倒数时刻，面对友情与爱情，现实和理想，生与死的痛苦抉择和焦虑感展现出来。灵感源于生活，Jonathan强大的感知力将生活的喜怒哀乐通过旋律与歌词，如此有才华，如此热爱生活的人英年早逝实在太可惜了，正因如此，才更显生命的可贵。8.2
初心已死，热血难赴，仅此而已。
放在电影里看是好看的音乐剧，放在音乐剧里看是好看的电影，即便能感觉到林聚聚还有加菲已经尽可能做出了最大的努力和尝试，但它仍然有点两头都不靠，这大概就是其尴尬之处吧。（但还是希望加菲今年能争取奥提！
宽街剧粉必看。突然理解为什么戏剧界那么多写自己生活的剧作了，因为正如经纪人大姐所说，作为独立创作者，确实只有写自己的生活才最容易动人。
近年来为数不多的好歌舞片之一 加菲卖力卖唱 LMM delivers a stellar show (okay I do wonder how much breaking the fourth wall with musical numbers makes this piece less of a film)
这几年我唯一能欣赏的歌舞剧只有lalaland。
没想到人物弧光落在了白人男性觉醒，然后开始尊重女性和LGBT权利。就这点屁事从13年《为奴十二年》到现在了还在拍。
开篇很棒。作为传记电影，材料编织甚至做到了让观众能理解“生平+编剧叙事”双结构的程度，这一点相当不错。
聚光灯一般明亮，像是又感受了一次RENT里的生命力。/在世纪看RENT居然是三年前的事了，想念剧场。
加菲的演技实在是一百分 但是剧作的节奏差些火候 观感并不上乘 似乎面面俱到 但也导致笔墨太散 缺少一锤定音的高潮
电影的剪辑和镜头切换是极致。音乐不错但是作为音乐电影来说的确偏弱。
