Set in a small Quebec town in the late-1920′s, this emotional drama follows the life and exploits of Celeste Beaumont, a talented young pianist who gains local celebrity at the town movie theater for her gifts as a silent film pianist. Awkward Pierre Blaudell is her biggest fan and eventually marries her. Shortly after this she bears his son, Pierre, who joins the army. She insists on joining him at the base and his meddlesome, snooty parents insist she give them her son. Pierre is killed in the war, and Celeste flees to New York where she finds steady employment as a jazz pianist. She finds a life-long companion with a black musician and chronicles her experiences in a diary that she passes on to her son after he grows up. Her son becomes a painter and once his own son, Antoine, is grown, reads him the story of Celeste, the youth’s grandmother. Intrigued, Antoine heads to the Big Apple in hopes of finding her.
This movie is an emotional drama about how Antoine, played beautifully by François Méthé, discovers the details of his heritage. This film won many awards in Canada and at Cannes in 1988. François Méthé, who was about 11-years-old, never acted again after this movie.
From IMDb:
A quiet painter, separated from his wife for a year, receives a suitcase in the mail from his mother, whom he hasn’t seen since infancy. He believes she abandoned him to his wealthy, paternal grandparents. The suitcase contains mementos and a diary, a long letter to him, written over the years, with details of her youth, her first job as a pianist at a cinema, the coming of talkies, her marriage, and how he came to live with his grandparents. As he reads through the materials and her story comes to life, his son Antoine, who’s about 10 or 12, tries to break through his father’s silence and sorrow by taking matters into his own hands.
美人迟暮。话题倒是比较开放，但实在接受无感。鸭鸭竟然也成为一种这么绅士的职业，果然贫穷限制了我的想象力。
诙谐温馨的好电影。生命，终究要放下评判、自我主宰。
女人的快乐应该从年轻的时候就开始，避免女主一生的悲剧。但互相治愈的结尾不是我想看的，有点套路了。
四场会谈。男的是真的帅！女主也好棒，60几岁演脱戏，这才是女性电影啊。
主题其实很不错，讨论性交易的伦理，讨论欲望和主体性的建构，男主的颜和身材当然也很不错，只是和艾玛对戏确实还是太弱了，几乎没有火花。想到霍普金斯和瑞克曼，他们和艾玛对戏的时候那种表面不露声色，底下暗流涌动火花四溅的情感和性张力，真的差太远了。啊，难以相信她都六十多了。
开始看时觉得应该拍成一个系列，里奥·格兰德这个披着性工作者外皮的心理咨询师，过于从容有度，想看他接诊各种客人，而不是一个典型拘谨的白人大妈，这个女性形象多少有些刻意得惹人嫌，不过在最后，话锋又转向了里奥本人，让两个角色都成为了性压抑的受害者，最后加戏的在镜中欣赏自己并不年轻的肉体一段还是很不错，是挺轻松有趣的话剧电影。
3.5，很好笑，艾玛汤普森很棒。因为想要精简场景完全靠对话推动，故事难免有点刻意，有些地方也难以让人信服。男主也太可口了
各方面都很出色的一部片，就今年看过的片子，它的精彩甚至不输给妈的宇宙。希望大家都可以任性地选择爱自己多一点，以及多给自己挣（攒）钱
悲催的是，老年电影本身作为芝麻市场还有从中挑出老年女性电影市场；更悲催的是，老年女性电影市场通常还寄生在传记片（比如《铁娘子》）、喜剧片（比如《涉外大饭店》）、恐怖片（比如《X》）的阴影之下，再排除疾病剥削和老弱剥削简直所剩无几，这一次让人很难不联想又利用了老年性爱剥削。不过，主题上老年性爱的旗帜之风最近刮得很大，于情于理性与爱都是人之常情，而且Emma为荧幕献身老年躯体，精神可嘉；介质上，溢出的舞台剧劣性，溢出的说教语气，但流媒时代的“电影”我们还能要求什么启示？
以性做为载体，并且全部内景以及依靠大量对白的依托，这都不是作为导演敢于轻易尝试的东西。但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》做到了。四段式的结构干净利落，简洁但是精致，虽然冲突来得有一些过于突然，但是通过彰显功力的对白呈现出了自我认同、原生家庭、女性地位等等我们当下几乎所有人都正在遭遇的问题。虽然电影的首要任务永远不是对问题做出解答，但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》却再一次以一种浪漫并且不失哲学的方式提供我们：治愈是我们每个人终其一生的命题。
故事设定很棒，55岁寡妇点鸭子，四次见面，先谈天说地再上天入地。可是作为一部话痨电影来看，大段大段的台词太不精彩了，让我疑惑到底什么时候才到正题，什么时候才能不要说那么多废话。结局象征意义很大，解放欲望，解放身体，是很多女人的重要命题。
一方面过于直白，缺少非语言的电影美。一方面意识形态过度小清新，干嘛用那么多话语淹没做爱，你们在害怕什么🤔口交完内裤穿回去、还有结尾那小小的性高潮都好假。
目前看到一半，就已经为这个男的留下泪水，我想挣钱，我也想和他做爱！
55岁寡妇退休教师X20岁性工作者，两人的关系以及对爱和亲密关系的讨论，真的挺有意思的，情节太有魅力了，说了很多关于婚姻、亲子各方面的探讨，结局也很喜欢。
勉强3分多一分都不行，所有分数都给大胆追求性爱和快感的立意，并且，这样的男孩有谁不想点！
选角也太成功了系列。矛盾是有趣的，“你一定会是只好猫。”
认识自己，认识自己的身体，最后时刻保持某种界限
想看莎莉霍金斯也来演演这个角色
剧本过于工整了，还有汤普森阿姨这惊天一脱，我的妈呀！[B+]
越看越觉得是女导演果然真是！
