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.
最重要的一点是：工作能消磨所有的美好。
如花束般美好，如花束般短暂。
..前面甜哭后面虐哭，特别是最后那段，代入感太强，蛮羡慕能有这样体面的告别。“你看，相遇总是伴随着离别。恋爱就像派对，总有一天会结束。”虽然我依旧坚定认为和世另我恋爱的存活率是零，不过有那样的一瞬间，见到过花束的美丽，便是一种幸福。绢是会一直一直把《黄金｜神威》追下去的女孩，我也还是不想变成大人，至少尽可能慢地变成大人。“今年的我们已与去年不同，我们爱的人亦是如此。如果变化中我们依旧爱着那个变化中的人，这可真是令人欣喜的意外。”
观影习惯导致「刻意越轴」日渐失效的情况下，分手戏的越轴还是格外惹眼，山音一番不堪的言辞之后，再推到仿佛二人曾经的场景，这种对映属于直接捅泪腺啊。
抓了几个非常准确的点，但缺乏荷尔蒙和可以燃烧起来的情愫，最终只是二维平面插画般的Stereotype罢了。管田将晖这张脸说责任让人毫不信任，说是peer pressure说服力倒是更大一些。
后半段有点恐怖故事的意思了，恐怖的不是两个人渐行渐远恋情无法维系，而是在生活的打磨下发现自己在压力和利益面前还是会放弃曾经奉为信仰的东西、和自己曾经看不起的那一类人无异。不过，能遇到爱好和想法与自己完全契合的人依然是奇迹，但人正是在这些波折中领会到何为自己的核心、渐渐看淡外部的装点、把更多的能量献给更重要的东西。恋爱都不会白谈、岁月也不会虚长，曾经迷恋的天然气储存罐会以别的方式回到你的成年人生活中（不是说液化天然气啊喂！）
今天看《花束般的恋爱》，结论：没钱不要谈恋爱。
想跟之前吃饭的朋友说，我终于懂时停错觉这首歌好听在哪里了
世另我的双向奔赴终究也没干过柴米油盐，好在凋落的花束没有被盲目地埋进婚姻的坟墓里，也许“合拍”的两人真的不一定“合适”吧。
还是熟悉的坂元裕二的写作风格，日常化的台词，功能明确也充满对比性的细节设计，传达的是「爱情是如何在两个人之间消亡的」。 这部剧的观感跟预期很不一样，短短两个小时却感觉漫长，不是剧情无聊的漫长，而是前七十分钟像是谈了一场理想般的恋爱，后五十分钟则在目睹「我的人生目标就是和你维持现状」是如何崩溃的，回过头来想就觉得分外失落，故事实则在讲的是「爱情的标准可不可以退而求其次」。 没有答案，但就是会导致两个人的相遇，然后因此分别。 好久没看过聚焦于两个人本身探讨爱情消亡的电影了，仿佛看到了被卡住的自己，也因此「我觉得我也应该前进了」。 爱情某种程度上是一个人的事，就算你和某个人谈恋爱，你们彼此所感受到的爱情，也不一定是同一个呢。
乏善可陈和如流水般平淡的剧情，我知道片子很戳豆瓣的文艺腔，然而不好看就是不好看，如果国籍一换，低分齐来
阪元裕二的主角们开始总是有很多很多的运气，像一个气球🎈慢慢被吹起来，又被悲剧小丑拧开阀门，慢慢瘪下去。
如果是五年前看到，大概会哭到不行。但亲身经历了一段亲密关系之后，就知道所谓的soul mate虽然美好，但远没有那么重要。编剧把理想和生活的对立拉到两个极端，然后让两个人执拗的坚守着自己的世界，没有任何的沟通。最后摆明要赚观众眼泪的那场戏，本来还挺戳中的，但小麦一开口说我们结婚吧，整个就降了一档，再也没法打动我了。真正亲密关系中的沟通和交流不是这样的，你什么都没做，就像春去秋来不可改变一般，放弃了。那也没有什么可惜的了。押井守和野吹还挺戳人的，可惜不懂更多。有村架纯好看。有点想起summer500天那部了。
有时候，有时候，我会相信一切有尽头，相聚离开，都有时候，没有什么会永垂不朽。可是我，有时候，宁愿选择留恋不放手，等到风景都看透，也许你会陪我看细水长流。
最重要的一点是：工作能消磨所有的美好。
很平淡、很真实，是一个“遇见百分百同步恋爱对象，最后被社会现实打败”的故事。没有相看两厌、没有出轨、没有消极颓丧，两个人很努力的为了生存适应社会。唯一变化的是一个人决定长大，放弃了理想主义；另一个人选择不降低标准，为了“爱”而爱。这是影片最打动我的地方。人生是会失败的，无论是在社会竞争，还是在爱情里，只不过没人喜欢在现实承认这一点，而又特别喜欢在文艺作品里看到它。
他们从一开始就是两类人；真正的文艺青年宁可饿死 也不会去看成功学
don't marry your soulmate
最好的爱情是在同一频率下相似的情感流动和心智的成长，遇到合拍的另一个自己，却没能守住共同的时间，虽然但是，比起很多人，已经很幸福了，毕竟大多数人终其一生连第一步都没能迈出。相知易，相守难，只有时间才会给出答案。
完全没有get到男女主之间的chemistry，“我喜欢XX”“哦我也喜欢XX”这种肤浅的对话并不会带来心动的感觉啊……
