Set in a small Quebec town in the late-1920′s, this emotional drama follows the life and exploits of Celeste Beaumont, a talented young pianist who gains local celebrity at the town movie theater for her gifts as a silent film pianist. Awkward Pierre Blaudell is her biggest fan and eventually marries her. Shortly after this she bears his son, Pierre, who joins the army. She insists on joining him at the base and his meddlesome, snooty parents insist she give them her son. Pierre is killed in the war, and Celeste flees to New York where she finds steady employment as a jazz pianist. She finds a life-long companion with a black musician and chronicles her experiences in a diary that she passes on to her son after he grows up. Her son becomes a painter and once his own son, Antoine, is grown, reads him the story of Celeste, the youth’s grandmother. Intrigued, Antoine heads to the Big Apple in hopes of finding her.
This movie is an emotional drama about how Antoine, played beautifully by François Méthé, discovers the details of his heritage. This film won many awards in Canada and at Cannes in 1988. François Méthé, who was about 11-years-old, never acted again after this movie.
From IMDb:
A quiet painter, separated from his wife for a year, receives a suitcase in the mail from his mother, whom he hasn’t seen since infancy. He believes she abandoned him to his wealthy, paternal grandparents. The suitcase contains mementos and a diary, a long letter to him, written over the years, with details of her youth, her first job as a pianist at a cinema, the coming of talkies, her marriage, and how he came to live with his grandparents. As he reads through the materials and her story comes to life, his son Antoine, who’s about 10 or 12, tries to break through his father’s silence and sorrow by taking matters into his own hands.
片名改了之后连故事的侧重点都改了 解救人质变成了绑匪窝里斗 最后还是自救的 不是警匪片了
黄政民演着演着就成了之前片子里的颓废警察，最后大喊一声，你们这些废物警察滚一边去，让我来。解救吾先生的角度是警察和匪徒，这个片子基本就是人质和匪徒的大面积特写，全场靠黄政民一角独撑，主题性差一点。
剧情故事一般，没有惊喜，剧情有点搞笑，人质活到最后居然是遇到一群内讧傻子团伙…
感觉比原版更跌宕起伏，各个角色演技也比原版更突出，不得不说韩国拍犯罪题材的确很成熟了。黄政民的演技还是很优秀的。以及李浩贞的胸虽然只出现了一幕也是很有存在感的。
有国产的珠玉在前，黄叔的这部就显得平平无奇了。还有，韩国的警察真的这么弱智吗？
绑匪没有与时俱进，现在这路数就该各种视频录起来，然后发到某网站上...
一般都是国内翻拍拍不好韩国的，这次反过来了！情节到演技都是国内版本完胜
本以为韩版改编 会在这种他们擅长的类型上添加气氛 可惜全无 还不如吾先生 剧中黄政民的设定也有问题 最后收尾更是有点故弄玄虚 失望了
一般，专程来看黄政民嘞，没想到剧情很一般感觉没咱们好看。
精彩刺激，太好看了，有黄政民在的电影果然不会叫人失望，虽然看过《解救吾先生》，但是对这一部《人质》依然非常喜欢，改编的太棒了，喜欢。
可能考虑到无法超越原版，用韩国动作电影一贯风格，这种演法给予主演一点颜面。
中改韩也有扑街啊，没想到黄政民演自己竟然好差劲😂
恍然大悟！原来绑匪是音乐剧演员金宰范！！！！
没有原版拍得好 独居老人那段太鸡肋 另 和黄政民一起被绑架的玩过鱿鱼游戏的妹子李瑜美为啥没有名字
几个恶棍非常出彩，政民欧巴稳当，编导差点意思。
比解救拍的好。全程紧张度把握很好。青出于蓝胜于蓝。
犯罪事件改成单线绑架与解救了，远不如丁晟《解救吾先生》多时间线的复杂和精巧。罪犯心理和人质心理的深刻对峙就更没有了。
被绑架演员黄政民，凭一己之力，分化瓦解犯罪团伙，救出女人质，生擒匪首，囧。
黄政民完全没有什么表演，所以是导演还是剧本的错。结尾的The Passenger亮了
让黄政民饰演自己效果不好，影片完全把黄政民圣人化，在战神丁青附体的情况下，又没有杀死任何一个人。对底层人的刻板描写，对上层人高大全形象的塑造，完全恶臭。
