John Ruskin是英国维多利亚时代的艺术家、诗人、建筑师、思想家，还扶持培养了一批年轻艺术家，不过成为社会新闻的却是他与Effie Gray的婚姻，两人结婚6年之后Effie要求中止婚姻，理由是两人“从未真正成为夫妻”，这桩官司成为一时谈资。John Ruskin承认两人从没上过床，但为自己辩护说妻子的“某种状况”破坏了他的激情。Effie Gray离婚后，嫁给了受John Ruskin重视提拔的画家John Everett Millais。据艾玛·汤普森说，这部新片将从两人的新婚之夜开始，通过John Ruskin的经历和性格来解开这个谜团。

Dakota Fanning replacing Saoirse Ronan in Emma Thompson's 'Effie'
August 16

Just last November, one Casting Tidbits update revealed The Lovely Bones star Saoirse Ronan landed the title role in Effie, a biopic about Effie Gray, the wife of English art critic John Ruskin, who became entangled in a famous Victorian love triangle. Now Deadline reports Dakota Fanning will star in the period drama from writer/actres****a Thompson which chronicles the strange romance, or lack thereof, between Gray and Ruskin. Despite her beauty, Ruskin was said to be disgusted with Gray's body, did not consummate the marriage and annulled it, allowing her to marry Ruskin's protégé John Everett Millais.Though Orlando Bloom was once attached to play Millais, apparently Tom Sturridge (Pirate Radio) has stepped into the role. In addition, Thompson will also star in the film as Lady Eastlake, who takes Effie under her wing when it becomes clear the union was destroying the young woman. Her husbandGreg Wise (Johnny English) will play Ruskin while Julie Walters (Harry Potter franchise) and Derek Jacobi (The King's Speech) will play his parents. Finally, Edward Fox (Gandhi) is in talks to play Eastlake's husband Sir Charles a man who was not only fed up with Ruskin and his radical ideas, but also the main patron of the Royal Academy which held sway over what constituted fine art.
Richard Laxton (An Englishman in New York) is directing the film which begins shooting in Scotland on October 17th with shooting to follow in London and Venice as well. The cast has been shuffled on this project for awhile with Carey Mulligan once attached to the title role as well, but a copyright infringement claim held up the film, which resulted in scheduling conflicts for the previously attached cast members. Producer Don Rosenfeld says, "It’****a Thompson’s first original script after doing several fine adaptations, and it gets to the heart of Victorian England." Though this sounds a bit more along the lines of her work on Sense and Sensibility as opposed to Nanny McPhee, her work on the page should make for a great British drama down the road.
还挺吃导演这一套，算是这种题材里比较看得下去的片儿了
文学性很强，缺乏相关历史/宗教知识看得吃力。暴力突然，情绪太多了，编排好像没有编排。
3.7分。
就，节奏慢到像ppt，大量360度的旋转镜头看到想吐……再好的寓意用这种表达方式，又能表达个啥
美式的假笑，美式的浮夸演技，美式的温情故事，应该在平安夜看呢
前边黑白段落非常好，钉子这个段落不认可，能感觉到导演想要表达一种漂泊后对于家乡的感情，就是太简单了，总体还是不错的一部个人感情表达的影片，镜头语言真好，就是太个人化，对于导演来说也许是成功的，对于观众就有些欠缺。
从不被群众熟知的送葬告别转到同样私密的作者自己对哥哥的告别。黑白的部分非常漂亮，转彩色开始反而失去了那种私人时光记忆的散射。
[Berlinale Competition] L'Avventura
纵使系上腰带、挂上头衔……一切的失约皆是临时工的作为。如今不像是骑士的时代，每个人都像是临时工。
影像风格和一些处理倒是很动人
用视听赋予故事更多意义 最后很可能流于炫技 一直用high pitch赞美诗做背景乐并不高级 overwhelm了观众也容易疲劳 情节简单想要赋予深度就只能增加内心戏 但只是抻长了故事线内容还是一样干 有极度出彩的点 中世纪用神秘风格呈现 粗粝再加上污秽感洗刷掉了原著作为寓言故事的脱离实际 但神话色彩又把人物同观众间离 无法移情 只不过视听太过了 以至于忽略了故事作为一个整体 如果每个极端运用都所指 那这部炫到最后 可能导演也不知道他最想得到的效果是什么了 还是有点可惜 后半部分节奏算拉回了一点 绿色和黄色作为画布主色调 忽然清新自然舒缓了之前积压的恐惧感 只有那一句台词有意义：绿色是红色离开后留下的/虽然累 但被开头打动了 奠定全片基调似的 外表冷冽 但内核滚烫 是独特的观影体验了
对于我这种对圆桌骑士故事完全不了解的人来说，本片真是空有符号，但毫无故事。A24出品的电影在视听上都不会出什么问题，但下次能不能故事讲的认真些啊。
中规中矩的儿童读物改编剧，属于不踩雷但没亮点的作品
妈宝男一夜成长的故事不存在的，所谓死到临头的彻悟，与这一年经历的苦难都毫无关系，只是被预见了未来宿命走向的胆怯所驱使。金发碧眼的女娃在玩弄王冠，真正的未来分明跟高文无关，他还是被off with his head。倒是琢磨下一直隐身的母亲到底是帮他还是在害他（
亚瑟王故事地位差不多类似咱们的西游记吧，导演是鬼魅浮生那位，所以大概就是贾樟柯拍了孙悟空和虎力大仙斗法比砍头呗，不觉得有几个老外能看懂。。
作家的骨灰用写满文字的报纸包裹，小男孩提起小狗的后肢玩耍。
你们现在狠流行童话故事民间传说晦涩化是个神马情况？！文盲不配看个故事书吗？
散场前排小朋友对爸爸说 我太困惑了 以后再也不听你的推荐了 我给了他一个迷之微笑 :)
心情不好的时候最适合看这类电影，轻松，搞笑，有爱。
