Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
所有国家都在与问题的斗争中进步，只有我们在没问题的自嗨中坠落
确实是不错，让人有很多的触动和思考，如果后面没有那么多政治元素，也许会更好一点。
反转再反转的电影，人性真是个猜不透的东西
还行。。节奏比较差，mv式的片段太多了。。时长可以减少四五十分钟。两小时以内会比较好。
层层递进、振聋发聩、义愤填膺、感慨万千！！！
真是印证了一句话：观点斗争是假的，立场斗争也是假的，只有权力斗争才是真的。
首先，它有令人惊讶的反转，适当的带动情绪的BGM，引发观众思考的故事议题。
很久没看过这么精彩的主旋律电影了，配乐尤其出彩，而且剧情也没拖后腿，看到结局的时候内心真是五味杂陈，没什么好说的，我只希望这部电影能进明年的豆瓣年度电影榜单。
很明显，印度上层在积极推动社会革新，最近揭露社会弊端呼吁改变的电影密集上映，又新选出了一位底层女性总统，一切都在加速变化。本片片名敢用印度国歌的名字，可见一斑。
7.9分左右。
属实是给我看笑了，虽然知道每一步要表达什么，但这也走的太笨拙了；全片除了导师压榨博士那一段，没有一处像是超过10岁的人写的
剧本层层反转设置的还可以，但是内容塞得太满，这个烂导演完全驾驭不了。没完没了的啰嗦闪回和慢动作镜头，让人莫名烦躁。
一波三折，不断反转，剧情有些复杂，涉及很多案子，似乎还有下一部
故事A：一场女性主义应援引发的骚动；
观影后，我仿佛已经看到一个庞然大物正在缓慢崛起了，当某些群体习惯性的圈地自娱、一叶障目的放眼世界时，只会尽可能的把别人的不足摆在明面上借以衬托自身的优越，自身的恶劣极尽所能的掩藏起来。反观印度已经开始明白书写满文明只能让现实变得更加野蛮这道理。民主制度和反思的力量并不会如极权般的统治那样即刻发挥效力，但是可以胜在悠久绵长。激素只能兴奋一时，后患却是无穷的。不出意外，此消彼长之间最多三十到三十五年，这个可怕的邻居必将取代“某…”成为世界第二大经济体。
买凶杀人，杀人灭口，
除了种姓和出身，研究生导师的权力太大，与学生不平衡的关系也是蛮重要的点
韩国以及印度的电影，为何敢于这么拍出黑暗，国内连拍都不敢吧，敢拍的导演演员肯定直接被封杀，几乎不可能过审，都让国民活在童话之中，感谢韩国印度拍的这种电影，让我们看清楚人性
7.9分左右。
本片涉及的尺度全面突破，见血的金句频出，讨论了众多议题，完美地将阶级压迫、程序正义、政治阴谋、体制谋杀、舆论煽动、媒体愚弄、乌合之众等等，通过一具被焚毁的女尸，逐步串联起来，格局由小见大，剧本架构成熟，叙事手法高超，悬念在猝不及防间，带来了极强劲的反转，呼应了前文一切镜头伏笔，最重要是升华了故事主题的广度与深度，深入分析社会劣根，探索上层意识操控，彻底剖开政客与百姓之间根深蒂固的矛盾。
