巴尼的版本

这是一个凹凸不平的电影,但很棒的演员使它值得一看。末底改Richler 1997年的小说巴尼的版本——巴尼的版本是基于——玩的想法“不可靠的叙述者。”Barney tells his story after the onset of Alzheimer's disease, and then his notes are re-edited by his son, so it's hard to know what's 100% accurate. It's an interesting approach, so it's unfortunate that the movie doesn't embrace it, instead using the Alzheimer's mostly as a sympathy-getting plot device.

虽然一些人物的描写和其他人很薄,演员作为一个整体是游戏,和演员——尤其是-吉亚玛,霍夫曼,司机,照耀在他们的角色。(-吉亚玛化妆也特别好,和他在每个时代是可信的。)虽然电影有一些强笑,特别是在一开始,导演理查德•j•刘易斯有一个小麻烦固有平衡电影的喜剧和戏剧。他也让这部电影太长时间运行,破坏了善意的人物有倒腾出来。
