Yesterday's Children
导演: Marcus Cole 演员: Jane Seymour / Clancy Brown
其它标题: Yesterday's Children / 前世輪迴(台)
Yesterday's Children 是一部真實故事改編成的電影
電影中的女主角是有名的珍西摩爾,珍妮(珍西摩爾,電視影集「荒野女醫情」)和她的丈夫、兒子一起居住在美國中部,再度身懷六甲的她開始做起如回憶般記憶 鮮明的夢,她將夢境中有個大教堂的小鎮描繪下來,當她向母親提及那些怪夢並展示畫中小鎮後,母親拿出珍妮兒時的畫作,赫然發現兩幅畫竟一模一樣!
珍妮和母親研究後發現畫中情境竟真實存在1930年代的愛爾蘭的Malahide;為了追尋可能是前世留下的記憶,珍妮偕同丈夫、兒子一同飛過大西洋到達 彼岸的愛爾蘭,發現自己前世可能是個名叫瑪莉沙頓的女子…....電影根據真實故事改編而成,本片讓人不禁開始思考輪迴究竟只是人們的想像力作祟,抑或真 有其事?
前世的她是一個貧窮家庭的母親,丈夫酗酒就只顧自己的慾望,沒有節育、避孕,她只能不斷的懷孕、生子,身體日漸衰殘終至死亡。數個孩子因為太窮分送育幼 院... 年輕的媽媽一直不停的夢見這些畫面,家人以為她生病了精神有問題 ,後來禁不起她苦苦哀求想找出答案,她的家人跟著她去尋找是否真有這些地方, 果真發現確有其人,也確有她夢境中的地方。後來靠著當地的牧師,找回她前世的孩子,然而孩子們都已年老,最後的結局是這些長久流離在外的年老孩子們,終於 在母親的墓前團聚在一起了!
真的很感動~ 當她的最大的孩子描述她離世之後所發生的事情,真的讓我掉下淚來...
在她離世之後,其他較小的孩子進到育幼院或是送給別的人家養,但她的最大的小孩因為已過了育幼院收容的年紀,他的父親就把他變成小小童工,從早工作到晚, 但他說他很慶辛其它的弟妹不用受他這種苦...(其實後來他的生活真的很慘,但網路上po的版本電影不是原本的英語發音,只能請有興趣的人自己看了)
這是改編自這位Jenny Cockell的真實故事,看的人要有心理準備,因為你會被它的照片嚇到,她的前世小孩(最年長這位)仍保有他母親在世時的合照,你會發現Jenny與他的母親相似度很高,特別在眼睛以上的部份 (p.s影片沒有中文字幕)
本人述說的情節大致與電影上的相同,珍西摩爾扮演的主角也是用她的本名Jenny,
影片中有她依序寫上小孩子的名字及出生的那一年
及她的「孩子們」對於這件事情的想法
她知道這件事說出去大家也不會相信,
但她靈魂的一部份仍然心繫於她的孩子們,
她想知道她的孩子後來的情形如何
這也是為何她要到Malahide去尋找答案
Jenny said :
I do find .. I need to see them, and they need to see me
My Boys (我家的男孩们 第一季) (2006) [剧集] 豆瓣
My Boys Season 1 所属 电视剧集: My Boys
导演: Robert Duncan McNeill / Victor Nelli Jr. 演员: Jordana Spiro / Kyle Howard
PJ Franklin (Jordana Spiro) is a professional sportswriter looking for love within her world, which is dominated by her group of male friends. Her "boys" are her family, which sometimes hinders PJ's dating life, as the men she tries to date don't know how to react to her unconventional interests and the all-important men in her life.
Her tomboyish, upfront approach to relationships tends to intimidate potential suitors, which leads her only female friend to advise her to dress and act more feminine. Being "one of the guys" can mean a lot of great things: poker games, pick-up softball games, watching sports or just hanging out at a favorite bar. But for PJ being a girl who’s one of the guys can be challenging.
During the first season, many of the episodes involved some of the characters going to match.com, a sponsor of the show, that is often referenced in conversation on the show.[2] The first season seemed to end with a cliffhanger on December 28, 2006. The episode "The Promise of a New Season" aired July 30 and was originally billed as the beginning of the second season. The season had a mere 9 episodes. Later, the first 13 episodes which aired in 2006 were combined with these 9 episodes and the 22 episodes were together released as Season One on DVD. The show had been picked up for a second season with eight episodes,[3] but ended up having 9 episodes. Season 2 premiered on Thursday June 12, 2008. The second season, like the first, ended on a cliffhanger. The third season premiered on Tuesday March 31, 2009, with another set of 9 episodes. The second season cliffhanger is resolved, as Bobby and Elsa break off their engagement, and he admits to P.J. that he had feelings for her. The two date throughout the season, although they try to keep it a secret, to no avail. Meanwhile, Brendan opens the new club with John but quickly finds himself doing all of the work. After pointing out how valuable he is to John, he manages to negotiate a better salary and work schedule. He also realizes his pattern of dating mentally unstable women, such as the one in "Carpe Burritoem", has to stop; a point emphasized by the crazy "girlfriend" of Chicago Cubs player Mike Fontenot, who makes a cameo appearance in the season 3 finale. At the end of the season, it is revealed that not only did Kenny and Stephanie continue to secretly date after their night in Arizona, they are in love.
On October 7, 2008, TBS announced it would run a third season of the show. A new set of nine episodes premiered on March 31, 2009.[4] On September 11, 2009, it was confirmed on TV Guide's website that the show has been picked up for a fourth season, although it would only head back into production in January 2010, with the new season premiering on TBS July 25, 2010.[5]
