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.
人物架构可以做一部出色的电视剧，双雄父子 模糊边界 黑白侵染 剪辑处铺密集鼓点加盲音转场
电影名字叫“温柔的酒吧”，其实更确切的是“温柔的查理舅舅”。大本真老了，半天没有认出来。不管你怎样，完全不会judge你，哪怕耶鲁毕业后无业赖在家里，这样的舅舅和家人去哪里找。
导演编剧都不太行，美帝人民的daddy issue这种主题更是看烦了……
这个酒吧给了JR一种Alfredo对toto的温柔
叔叔真棒，自学成才，小侄子成长道路上的永远的导师。
崔宇植你不会挑剧本的吗？？？这是什么老掉牙的灰色地带警察故事啊... 导演以后也避开，节奏稀烂！
还以为是个温情的成长故事，结果上学、工作、迷失。。。美国佬凡事以自我为中心，确实与东方文化格格不入
The Tender Bar script is based on the best-selling 2005 memoir of the same name by J. R. Moehringer, which tells the true story of Moehringer's childhood growing up in Long Island, New York in the 1970s and '80s.
在个人主义大行其道的年代里，珍视家庭、崇尚学历、男尊女卑、门当户对的传统价值观，依旧会持续不断的引起大众的共鸣。当这一切与年代感十足的条纹衬衫和敞篷汽车无缝衔接的时候，竟令人回味到一丝恍若隔世的温暖。
大本的表现很赞，编剧功力还差一点点。酒吧的大叔们应该有更多在他人生中的启迪，现在看起来像一群只会请他喝酒的大叔。姥爷也应该有更多情绪可以被放大，还缺了那么一点，母亲跟舅舅对他的意义，还可以强化一些，再去掉一些。演技不是这群人的问题，选角很赞，乔治克鲁尼的导演功力也有进步，但整体的剧本，真心差了一点……
窝在沙发上脑袋放空 喜欢70～80s的一切🤩
流水线的套路片，套路太老 又不想挖内心戏。
《温柔酒吧》是颁奖季电影里最平淡也是最温馨的一部，充满了爱与希望
听说是韩国票房冠军十分迷惑……结局不痛不痒，谁也没挖出来，感觉头重脚轻。
喜欢这种小溪流水似的叙事风格，应该继续往下拍…
缺失的父爱由温柔的舅舅填补，教他做个男子汉，一大柜子的书填补童年。可惜拍得稍显寡淡。
有一个很不错的故事，但拍到后面就感觉每条线都仓促，甚至高潮也没有了高潮的样子。
成王败寇灰色地带恶警抓贼，程序正义尺度不易拿捏，但越到后面故事编得越随便，远不如《孤狼之血》这类相似题材的片子
一喝酒就要造孽，就不要喝酒。
一个不负责任的渣爸，一个望子成龙的妈妈，一个善于玩弄感情的女朋友，还有一段糟糕的被NYT拒绝的实习经历，其实挺悲惨的。有人说看不懂这部电影想要表达什么——但是，从最微观的角度讲，JR能在如此糟糕的成长环境里环境里，遇到一个集真善美三位一体的舅舅和他的”狐朋狗友”，能考上耶鲁，能有一个志同道合的同学，能感受到生活的温馨和美好，还能怀揣着儿时作家的梦想并为之奋斗，能勇敢打破自己残存的幻想，已经是对生活最积极的回应。生活，其实不需要太在意别人的看法，豁达一些。
