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.
什么狗屁宗教，生日还不给过了，一天到晚憧憬新世界上天堂，男的一个个家务活不做在家跟大爷似的下地狱去吧。。。女主角J上大学旅游涨见识，女主角M结婚生子满面腊黄留海都油得塌下来了，快跑吧。。。
一如既往的温暖日常，和电视剧是一个味道，很好。
虽说宗教姬的be感很浓，心理建设了但结局还是大破防，尤其是M说我一个人的信仰就能支撑我们两个人了，dear lord，赐我接下来的姬片都甜到爆吧！
哥林多前书里的“爱是忍耐”已经变成爱的反面教材了都。拉拉电影到底什么时候可以不再强行错过啊。杰米！我的理想型长发t！一百个满足了！三星半。
温馨又搞笑 京都的场景很眼熟想起了和飞飞一起去旅行的时候了 希望这个系列能一直拍下去
又是一部节奏被切得细碎，放置了一幕又一幕情绪镜头的同性电影，其实说到宗教涉及到的同性故事，基本上没有一部电影是讲透的，建议未来能有导演担纲起宗教题材的les剧，可能只有电视剧的时长才能把故事和涉及到的问题讲细讲透。不过les电影基本上都比真实水平的评分要普遍偏高，同性群体极度渴望精神食粮啊！还有，该电影和我在90年代看到的加拿大les电影《夜幕低垂》有同样的问题，配乐不错，但其中一个女主演技很差，不过，个人还是喜欢《夜幕低垂》毕竟是女导演执导的，很多性欲释放的节奏点和彼此之间的对白更加迷人。（看到短评里有人写这电影女主之间性张力强才来看的，可能是性张力的理解因人而异吧。哎，以后不能看这种小屁孩刚出社会后写的影片短评，太误导自己了）
marike还是太纠结了，无法摆脱外部的束缚就不能直面自己内心 也无法真实地生活，做不到真实就会很累。jaime虽然失去了喜欢的人，但多少会更自洽
剧情走向很怪异，玛丽卡所面临的压力没有很好地呈现出来，导致人物的分离并不能引起共鸣，再次相聚也没有唏嘘的感觉。不娶何撩，不如不见。

这才是真正的禁忌之恋…… 看完后千言万语汇成一句话： 都给我学着点Jamie和她的家人！！！ （对不起最近感叹号太多但，哎算了）
三星半吧。厕所隔间那里拍的挺不错，整个故事框架好似违命前传（？
这好敷衍的剧情为什么会有这么高的评分。一见钟情的瞬间展现得莫名其妙。朦胧的爱情遇上胜似邪教的极端虔诚宗教限制，小镇上你俩抱抱亲亲不被发现怎么可能。结局虔信的女生竟然为了和爱人一同生活在新世界选择跟不爱的男人结婚生子我要是另一个女主我也气昏了头。配乐棒尤其片尾曲！Jamie好帅啊，浑身英气但又没有很男性化的那种帅。
女二应该是跟着女一私奔了，但女一家里那个怎么办？
他耶和华的 说了多少遍 不要喜欢上有男朋友的bi 那些都是bi的臭把戏 跟宗教信仰沾边的都带点脑子 爱情打不过信仰的！
真的无法理解，爱但是不能在一起，要等待、等待、等待，甚至是等待一个永远不会到达的未来。爱在当下。
太滑稽了 为了来世可以幸福 这世怎么委屈自己都行 j为什么会喜欢一个这样的人 我不理解 m鱼和熊掌都想要 j居然还n次退让 我可真是服了 j真的妥妥的新世界备胎
情节和叙事都没什么新意，故事的宗教背景和女主之一的信仰在无神论者眼里难以理解，好在颜值够高，部分场景性张力十足。一年能看到这样一两部姬片挺不错的。
虽然没有大改电视里插播做饭的流程 但是故事意外的有点沉重和小深刻 当然是建立在一些角色动机的改动上就是
很温馨并且整部电影看下来都是甜甜的恋爱，但为什么总感觉贤二和史朗的关系很脆弱呢，看电影的时候脆弱这两个字一直都在我脑海挥之不去，并且我还很害怕室友发现我在看同性恋电影，这让我脑海里的脆弱又加深了（突然感觉我和室友的关系也有点脆脆弱了
back hug就像大do了一场，触碰的手指，若有若无的眼神交错，是我最喜欢的互相吸引，难以抑制。marike，why？最后相遇再切换到之前的场景，她好像老了十岁，没有了之前的光彩和生命力。去过自己的生活吧，去过，去活。
