剧情简介
The story of Parker’s new effort, penned by William “Billy” Ivory, is inspired by true events and is set in the summer of 2014. On the occasion of the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings in France, octogenarian Bernard Jordan (played by Michael Caine) made global headlines. He’d staged a “great escape” from his care home to join fellow war veterans on a beach in Normandy, commemorating their fallen comrades. The bittersweet script is said to explore “the reality with wit and a very big heart”. Bernie’s adventure, spanning just 48 hours, also marked the culmination of his 60-year marriage to Irene (Glenda Jackson). The film will also celebrate “their love without any sentimentality and with an eye to the lessons we might all learn from the Greatest Generation”.
观众心声
Glenda的遗作、Michael的告别作甚至是Pathé UK的谢幕作…在诸多特殊位置的面前，和同样来到关键时间节点的历史事件相交。戏里戏外都给人了一股很感动、追溯往日时光的温暖以及足够感动的回忆。它也是那种不可能是单靠故事/演员就能实现的“人生故事”，而这样的讲述或许越来越少，也想要更加好好珍惜。
举重若轻。
相较于战争心结很清淡的处理，这部电影更是一部很深沉的爱情片，看着耄耋之年的两位爷奶相守相伴的感情，看着Michael Caine和Glenda Jackson几十年后的再合作，岁月在他们脸上留下痕迹，却抹不掉他们眼中的光芒和即使颤颤巍巍依然稳定的演技。最后两人在海边相约一起出逃时真让人心酸，Jackson未等到上映就已去世，还好Caine爷爷精神依然非常不错，这样退休了就好，一定要长命百岁！三星半
贯穿始终的回忆部分太弱，承担不起任何有效的叙事张力或形象，公路片上的巧遇也是走马观花，但格兰达遗作、迈克尔隐退，与内容竟高度吻合。ps:“别再开始读太长的书” “下次你如果还要出走，我要和你一起走”真是暴击
人面对战争和岁月实在是太渺小了
