UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
Fear or love, baby, don’t say the answer, action speaks louder than words…近几年来最对胃口的片子。才华，执着和活着，苦难总可以构成结局的一部分。
无论是情绪还是叙事节奏都乏于变化，可谓扁平
如果你喜欢broadway音乐剧，或者了解Jonathan Larson本人，或许会喜欢本片。但是作为不看音乐剧的人，这片子最大的问题就是太不像电影，导演太自我陶醉于致敬和缅怀，而没能讲好故事，两个时空（tick tick…boom音乐剧时空，和回忆中创作superbia的时空）观感上撕裂太严重，用来填充歌曲的画面也不够紧凑和好看，甚至歌曲都没能好听到让人记得几首。看完只能让人觉得男主角是another struggling artist in New York，纽约有太多太多这样的人了。PS，加菲演的没问题，歌喉也不错，但是现在吹的那么凶的拿奥斯卡男主肯定是没希望的。
不给加菲一个影帝提名说不过去，唱演俱佳，已经收藏OST。里面有一段关于创作者的话我边看边抄了下来，观看过程中两度落泪。看到瓦妮莎哈金斯再次演音乐剧电影又是另一番感受，她在网飞拍的其他烂片我都原谅了。
泳池五线谱我也大呼nb
艺术家的半自传式音乐剧，节奏与嵌套的结构挺有趣，连对音乐不很敏感的我都不觉得很闷。
8/10.
《斯通纳》中的melody——爱、认同、怜悯、志业、傲骨、信任与死亡——在剧中流淌。好听好看又好玩😄
安德鲁从《主流》片场醒酒后装满所有能量和精神完成了这部好戏及音乐剧。每一位角色都可爱有趣，每一个音符也都好听。遗憾不能在影院享受。
A musical about making a musical
你永远可以相信LMM。你也永远可以相信加菲！！！演技长进得相当可以哦，看得出对larson的举手投足都是琢磨过了，把音乐执着和幽默天赋演到了骨子里。时常觉得LMM是larson附体么，为啥那么有才华，就很多创作的方法真的好妙。
如果你不了解吉屋出租以及背后的作者你就无法共鸣，去了解一下百老汇的传奇人物和作品吧，这个还是有点小众了。但个人观感还是很好的，我还是喜欢早午餐那一曲，太炫了。
虽然觉得表现一般（感觉状态和主流里有点像而主流是我心理阴影），还是希望加菲靠倒数时刻奥斯卡封帝，方便磕CP。
7.0 通常了一些。毕竟是根据真人故事改编。
我又要站在大众的对立面了，我不理解，我不喜欢。从一开始对年龄的焦虑，到后面对生活的逃避，对身边人的伤害，停电时的的咒骂，这些所谓艺术家的烦恼都让我无法共情。我知道这是真实故事改编，然而这只让我觉得更悲凉。如果我的生活中有这样一个朋友，我真的要毫不留情的骂他一句go fuck yourself, who the fuck do you think you are?!生命对每个人都是考验，不是只有你的磨难才是磨难，正如Mike所说，你甚至都没有资格说你running out of time。好吧，逝者安息，说到底我又有什么资格去评头论足呢。说回电影，加菲真的演的很用力，还原度很高。Robin本色出演，Vanessa真是亮眼。影片有想法，但是呈现的很凌乱还不如身在高地啊，罢了，各有所爱而已吧…
La La Land对偶片，missing Emma x Andrew 2021
影片结尾，拉森却重整旗鼓，开始创作《吉屋出租》。就是这个瞬间，对我的冲击力太大了。看完影片我其实不会觉得拉森可怜，甚至有些羡慕他。
tick tick boom！被击中了，热泪盈眶。
7.5分。电影没那么完美，但还是让我共情了。开始看得有点迷惑，看到后面才明白是主角的同名话剧讲述自己第一部音乐剧诞生和失败的过程，话剧和现实形成鲜明的对比。失败过后继续努力写下去，在功成名就的前一天突然死去，真是悲剧人生。(最后加菲那笑容让人难过……想到原型的人生……)
蛮好看的，音乐都很好听，最喜欢的居然是从正片里删掉的那首《green green dress》（笑）。片子在好的时候像是优质的音乐剧改编电影，露怯的时候又太像电影化程度不高的MV串烧。加菲的表演好的时候能给予角色独特的魅力，过火的时候又太用力过猛，确实蛮二傻子。这个电影比某几部乏味的片子更值得奥斯卡最佳影片提名。我个人给不出四星的原因在于，这片在立意上，依旧是“美国梦”主题创作的一个翻版，没有更多的深度。
