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.
剧情太水了，摁头给吃齁死的糖，刚吃完就捅你一刀，节奏跟踩了狗屎一样，看在原番的面上才勉强三星，醉了
影片本身气氛虽然够，但是故事讲得不够好，很多人物根本立不住，完全工具人和浮于表面…
且看且珍惜了
完成度自然不用说，毕竟团队在那摆着呢。陀螺的美学真的是淋漓尽致的展现，众大牌也算各司其职，呈现了不错的群像。可真的就是太！长！了！
没有看过原版，觉得还挺好看，比较传统的剧情片。马戏团各种奇技也是一门失传的艺术了。吃鸡男的造型明显是来自Goya名画Saturn Devouring His Son😄
这个剧场版可以拼凑出所有cp，真谣，宗凛，凛谣，凛郁，郁谣，旭郁，夏郁，夏尚，宗真，诸怜，贵澄，贵谣，外加一个黄毛一个白毛。每一对都有对手戏，CP大乱炖女孩会巨满足。不过没看前三季的人，基本上看不懂这个剧场版。另外声优阵容几乎是近年来最豪华的，集齐了宫野真守，小野大辅，内山昂辉，丰永利行，津叔，细谷佳正，平川大辅，日野聪。就差神谷浩史和小野贤章就可以凑一个大满贯了，非常感谢京阿尼给我们制作出那么好的剧场版。希望这十六个大男孩能永远的游下去。
拆散大魔王和小白兔就算了，故事也这么老套无趣…
47版当然也有自己的问题，但作为黑色电影，47版戏剧冲突完整性弥补了剧情不足，出色的表演压住了台面。原有可延伸主题：神化-兽化、宗教先知形成要素，欺骗的心理优势与反噬 ，在新版里一一被弱化，潦草许多；本片增加了Molly、老板细节，却丢了算命夫妇的弧光，尤其是关键人物Pete，让主角的操控和悔恨逻辑换了个方向，“never”一词是在暗示Pete算半个精神父亲吗（火与酒），那么欺骗或杀害老人或许源自于弑父情节，这就是另一套逻辑了（本片主题本来就很乱很多）。至于情感断层就懒得说了，陀螺做了一些圆滑设计，但关键时刻感情渲染总是不到位，老太太开枪把我吓到了，就，强行制造黑色氛围呗
马戏团总是会有许多故事。其实这个故事该叫做《一个男人一生中的三个女人》，她们或从一开始，或到最后，都看透了男人夸夸其谈、贪得无厌的本质。而男人则完成了从人到野兽的转变（很尼采）。叙述节奏和悬疑氛围都中规中矩（亡妻复活的戏码要是更戏剧一些就好了）。凯特·布兰切特和鲁妮·玛拉总让人想起在《卡罗尔》里的互动，可惜这个故事里女人与女人间几乎没有一句交流。
瞅瞅奥斯卡最佳过誉导演的新片。★★☆/5.7
我甚至觉得，最后片中男主说“mister, I was born for it (geek).” 有点作者自己的影子。
22年这版You don't fool people, Stan.They fool themselves.
布兰切特和库珀的心智斗法看得我如痴如醉，尤其最后摊牌那里两腿一软差点给大魔王下跪。其他没啥可说的，陀螺的暗黑风格很适合拍人心鬼蜮的故事，就是有时候氛围过于诡谲拉高了期待，直接导致假高潮...

这么豪华的豪华卡司，拍出这样的成品……建议直接睡一个小时从大魔王出场开始看，头一个小时太无聊了。期待的魔兔重逢更是世纪大骗案……
People are desperate to be seen.
1、“他究竟是一个人类，还是一个天生的怪人？没人知道……”
914｜大可以批评它第一幕冗长、第二幕乏味，但第三幕的震撼是不能否认的，就是那种专属于这个体量的好莱坞电影的震撼，光凭这一点我觉得它才是今年最配得上奥斯卡三个字的电影。当然配得上不代表应该拿，在真正冗长的第二幕里，细节的粗鲁铺陈、剪辑的不太用心都能感受得到。相比之下第一幕倒还好了，与尾声呼应，体现了故事里独特的宿命感。二战背景也不是毫无指涉，至少在我看来男主角的身世就是这场战争最好的注脚。
视听一流，故事并不新鲜但是拍得好，所以我很喜欢
对真琴好点啊呜呜呜呜，真琴推落泪了
