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.
雌性是被上帝钦点的第二性，是背负苦难和责任的群体。如果科技改变不了这一点，人人平等就是最明显的笑话。
信念，勇气，渴望。」
影片实实在在展示给我们看堕胎是一件很残酷痛苦的事情，所有的代价全部由女性承担，想起很久以前在大学课堂看的四月三周两天，心中为之一颤。影片让观众自然进入女主的世界，如何身心疲惫要解决这件事。有人高呼胎儿的权利，却无视实实在在的女人的权利，医学上来说胎儿在母体中就是个寄生物，怀孕反应就是母体在自我保护而排斥它，寄生物何来的权利呢？禁止堕胎到底动了谁的利益？光明正大得绑架女性身体，也正发生在2022的当下，禁止堕胎并不会影响女性生与不生，只会把女性推入更深的火坑，甚至付出生命代价……反堕胎的人还不懂吗？女性在用生命捍卫自由，捍卫自己的权利，天赋人权，做不做妈妈也是权利啊，而不是整个社会强迫，洗脑，绑架女性身体！
@某些“少女”（知名不具），不如找心理咨询师“谈谈心”………@鸢鸢：看过！
2022.2.14 瞳孔放大，久久不能平静。大雪夜深感我们这片大地也即将“正发生”。可人家是20世纪60年代啊…
我们的额头是苍白的
很特別的呈現方式，電影再說著墮胎對社會價值顛覆的嚴重性，但卻用近景表現出很私人的感覺。兩種方式對比起來，令人有一種糾錯的感覺。
电影色调很好看，一些镜头下的人物近摄很美，故事情节很简单，聚焦于女性背负人权的重压，无奈的煎熬，只有拼死一搏，杀出血路。
从头到尾一直为女孩儿揪着心。故事很简单，但是很有冲击力。
应该是借鉴了索尔之子，但焦点之外内容贫瘠。我想这就是佳作和432的差距吧。
不同国家的女性，都是男权政策的受害者……影片最后男医生说的"自然流产"，我真的是想骂人，一个年华正好的女性的生死命运被他人掌握……
生理上的疼痛是第一层，心理上的无助是第二层，社会上的冷漠是第三层。层层痛苦揭露了女性的脆弱
没有期待的那么高，整个故事和人物塑造不出彩，空有一个抓人的题材比较注目，新题材新问题果然是比较引发关注与思考的，又或许故事和人物塑造并不重要，社会价值才是影片摆在前列的东西。
公权力在任何时代都是在无形中灭绝人类的瘟疫。学会驯服它，与它共存，是文明的脚步。
可能整个影片并没有此前一些相似题材的作品那么有力度，但胜在在女性主义议题上着墨更多，女主的一切行事动机皆因要掌控对自己人生的选择。最后一部分直观地展现了痛苦，让人感同身受，也是很厉害的拍法。
其实你对确定一无所知
“女性境遇中的每一个因素，合谋限制了她们，让她们变得平庸不堪。”固然是把女性放在了被动的位置，怕的并不是平庸，怕的是求助无望的心如死灰，好在女主还是个人意志力比较强，自寻短见的结局更让人无望。欢愉是彼此的，而生疼却是女性的。
神圣的旗帜
冷静，克制，却又带着血淋淋现实里的残酷和痛苦。直面女性掌控自己身体权利的问题，和社会伦理对于婴儿生命权捍卫的碰撞。和欺骗，忽视，不受尊重的伤害比起来，身体的痛楚算是最小的，但唯有坚韧的意志，才能摆脱这个社会对女性的束缚与偏见。
因为疫情察觉病情，却做不到共情。因为离职想起离婚，却忘不掉离人。大楼外的蓝色防水布，挡得住雨水，挡不住眼泪。牛排馆的超豪华音响，听得见优雅，听不见忧伤。火灾和水淹一同降临，似乎过去和现在总是水火不容。父爱和母爱一并消失，仿佛爱情和婚姻永远无法共存。表面平静的人，却在瀑布的重压下求生。对比《阳光普照》，钟孟宏做了减法，但收效甚微，正片的力道甚至不如预告片的一半。以疫情为切入点，划破中产婚姻的防水布，捉出一条奄奄一息的蛇：“为什么我要去承受你们的烂婚姻？为什么是我？！”随着女儿的一声声质问，父亲蜷缩在画右的角落里，像一只不敢大声鸣叫的蝉。用空间与色彩承接人物情绪的呈现与交替，再将母女的主观体验做一个置换，这些都是非常笨拙的东西，而且零散。瀑布的轰鸣声只存在于贾静雯呆滞的脸上，和观众之间隔着群山。
