片名翻译成苦恋也太误导人了，还以为是什么狗血爱情片……这分明是很牛逼的黑色喜剧啊！而且玩弄嘲讽的命题之广，死亡、宗教、政治、资本、好莱坞、艺术、性、爱情……虽然有点片段脱节，但确实是很有想法的作品。牧师/资本家为一体，剽窃的诗人，烟酒在手的心灵导师，小孩科学家，丧葬产品如奢侈品般展示，死亡是娱乐产品，被包装、营销和标价。只有信仰死亡的女孩被骗得粉碎，绝望地怀着对爱与死亡的尊重逝去。/靠，看开头就隐... 片名翻译成苦恋也太误导人了，还以为是什么狗血爱情片……这分明是很牛逼的黑色喜剧啊！而且玩弄嘲讽的命题之广，死亡、宗教、政治、资本、好莱坞、艺术、性、爱情……虽然有点片段脱节，但确实是很有想法的作品。牧师/资本家为一体，剽窃的诗人，烟酒在手的心灵导师，小孩科学家，丧葬产品如奢侈品般展示，死亡是娱乐产品，被包装、营销和标价。只有信仰死亡的女孩被骗得粉碎，绝望地怀着对爱与死亡的尊重逝去。/靠，看开头就隐约觉得有点故园风雨后的味道，仅限老爵士跟男主对话的镜头和英音，这种感觉很飘忽，后面完全没了，结果查了一下还真是Evelyn Waugh的小说改编的。然后又发现老爵士的演员就是在故园风雨后里演查尔斯他爸的那个，那真是难怪了…… (展开)

太cult了，是资产阶级疯逼。翻译成苦恋到不必吧，朋友作为字幕组译完之后开了腾讯会议放映给俺们看，探讨探讨翻译成至爱者是不是更妥帖。
