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.
总之 如果电影贴近现实 那这个渣男就成就了导演家里的俩个人 也不亏
我的妈，这拍了个啥？感觉啥都有，但最后竟是逗你玩？政治惊悚拍成这样小打小闹也是够了！除了一直有的悬念营造的还算不错之外，好像没啥优点了。砍妹都沦落到这个地步了吗
其实真的要杀那女生有一百种办法，一个个送人头不科学，另外攀岩悬崖求婚简直是作死现场教学。
5.5 好像有点意思，又没多大意思，作为“异乡人”的既视感倒是挺强烈的。
感觉凭男主的能力应该被抓几百回了吧……最后其实都没看懂到底谁说的是事实，只是觉得真没必要杀男主，性价比应该很低。
本以为是竞速攀岩，突破极限，没想到却是山腰蹲坑，山顶抛尸
剧情算是稳扎稳打吧，没有特别出彩的地方，但是也能顺畅的看下去。感慨…感慨就是——心中有爱，就会有活下去的希望。
屎一样的剧情 一样的演技。。生活逻辑根本不通。。。咋拍的？
坏人吊下来拿石头砸也砸死了，整这么费劲呢？
纯情男主、渣男租客、不甘世俗的姐姐…画面挺美的，不同于咖喱味的另一种印度风情
稀烂，小成本投资，一众傻缺角色，三流惊悚片，软趴趴的追逃文本，完全看不到斗智斗勇的精彩瞬间，莫名其妙的动机和杀机，看得见的穷酸项目，女主能全身而退，全靠对手蠢，别浪费时间。
Beckett.2021.1080p.NF.WEB-DL.x265.10bit.HDR.DDP5.1-AGLET
主角光环严重护体 那么陡峭的地方真的可以和大男人搏斗吗
故事和画面都很美好。音乐也好听。看完很舒服。
的确有很多CMBYN式的元素，房客、作家、桔子、衬衫以及换了种说法的以你的名字呼唤我直接在台词中出现，等等，包括前半程故事走向和节奏调调也挺像。非常文艺迷影范，布列松、黑泽明、塔可夫斯基纷纷出镜，洛丽塔、莫里斯等等也被提及。摄影构图很漂亮，美术布景很舒服，和以往的印度电影观影经验大不同。可惜后半程掉得有些多，在隐身与逃跑中舔舐时代身份之悲苦，反倒不如副线女人之间的互救来得动人。
对希腊的城市空间和自然环境进行了充分的场面调度挖掘，视听构建与动作编排非常老派，包括文本在内，一种70年代美国政悚电影的回潮，即便以今天的视角来看会有些蠢顿和错位。小华盛顿的角色相比半个世纪前的主人公们，强烈的宿命感下是残酷的当代现实指控——生活中的突发悲剧后却引出更大的信仰破灭。“我本该死去”，面对祖国的背叛，这究竟是接受了现实与命运后的庆幸，还是绝望。
剧情略狗血，只有我觉得老师比男主更好看吗……
3+，复杂背景下（政局、绑架），一个普通人的逃亡与救赎。背景提供了主角普通身份和特殊经历的冲突，也完成了从女友死亡事件（死亡之外也是一段不圆满的情感）中解脱。
题材还行 剧情不跟cmbyn对比就还好 因为讲老实话确实拍的不如它 给及格分是因为摄影美术和配乐都还不错
在想中间出现的大象，和结尾出现的渣男，导演想表达的是。。？
