Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
When It comes to drawing,there is only true rule to teach,it is look…I think,add imagination.
俊京和姐姐，会给人一种恍然大悟的感觉，一直以为姐姐是真实存在的，当知道姐姐只是放心不下俊京才没有离开，这一刻，刚好打中泪腺。
是我看不了爱情片了吗...好无聊。中间反转不错，没亲上的初吻我还挺喜欢的。
又美又伤的片子。所以痛苦与孤独才是天才的归宿吗，那我不要当天才，我只想当个普通人。
C / 很一般 “奇迹”立意太高 结构有点偏混乱 叙事太散 也不是完全集中在"车站"的故事上 更像一个数学天才的传记电影
本尼优秀的演技不需再表演 但是我也发现他的孤单比爱情演得好。
可爱、美丽、甜蜜的一部片子，虽然充满了悲伤。
这么好的电影只有7分多，随着韩国电影名气越来越大，涌入大量战狼恶意打低分，韩影已经不再属于韩影迷这个小圈子了，以后要出豆瓣高分也不太可能了
有几个画面真的很美，导演也很会用镜头和音乐传递感情，文本写得很有趣，演员的表现也相当好，基本可以掩盖叙事节奏上的问题。
为了继续走怪异人设路线而接的只为飙演技的烂片，无聊到爆炸
这种艺术题材的电影当然要融合艺术家本人的风格，而这部作品也不例外。大量的呈现给观众的视角仿佛都透着几分不真实，带着几分彩画的影子。
即使早已不相信爱情的人，也会为之动容。用漫长的余生去追忆一个人，这份爱如此艰辛，也如此幸福。故事里没有什么爱情神话，却借由一支画笔和形态各异的猫，探入爱情的至深处，直到桑榆暮景才恍悟，一切早已脱离了艺术的价值，都是早逝的发妻为他安排的替代伴侣。
人物塑造的不够立体，靠演员和舞美留住观众不退场
卷福天才专业户。但电影表达的太散了，一会讲天才，一会讲爱情，一会讲命运，一会讲猫咪，似乎想面面俱到，最后却完全没有重点，以至于感觉像看了个流水账，可惜，其实可以更好
内核依旧是家庭温情的爱情轻喜剧，真实故事改编，韩国男演员的哭戏还是挺不错，有一定可看性。但个人还是更喜欢是枝裕和那版《奇迹》，也是有原型的儿童视角的故事设计，更感人。7分
人总是爱跟自己较劲。父亲过于自责于是不敢对儿子好，儿子过于自责于是拼命想修个火车站证明自己值得父亲爱，都快把人给绕晕了。姐姐的事，不知道是人格分裂还是地缚灵。
本尼又一次演绎了天才疯子，画画是一种救赎与发泄。
与众相同的人会获得幸福平静的人生，与众不同的人会留下人世间的名声。虽然我可以对电影感同身受，但我也许永远找不到那种“永失我爱”的感受。
五星，8.5分。韩国电影在煽情这方面做得吧，功力越来越深厚了。以前看韩影，煽情就是硬煽，你不哭就演员先哭。现在自然一些了，最擅长的反转+煽情，火候掌握的十分好。唯一的缺点就是结尾拉的太长了，每当你以为要结束，它就继续演。
