Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
我大概就是不喜欢musical period
跟爱乐之城差很远，可能是因为传记片的关系吧，加菲猫这个造型，显得太不抗老了。歌不难听，但是看起来无聊冗长，除了泳池里写出歌的那段还有点意思。
3.5；R.I.P. STEVEN;林漫威！又是你！gay dudes，什么时候能在出柜之时就认识到自己除了领养，就是这一辈子都别想有孩子了啊？be a fucking adult alright?;需要找一部吉屋出租看一下
游泳都可以在水下看到音符谱曲，这想象力真绝了。
脆弱、神经质都有了。秒针走动的声音也贯穿全剧。但是剧情太跳跃了，经常进不去。
非常典型的美国电影，前半部分代入感不强，后半部分渐入佳境。乔恩的努力、挣扎、死亡、成功，都归于一个词，无常。最近读关于阿德勒的心理学，很有感触，你的课题只是把每一天过好，每一天的舞蹈跳好，照佛学讲的“无常”二字，眷恋过去，远眺未来，都是愚蠢。
歌舞片连里面的歌都不好听，那就没什么好说了，更何况还有股浓浓的脱节感。
后疫情时代宽街的一种新尝试！林巨巨YYDS！加菲意外的惊喜！
稍微失望了，但是加菲深情的眼神我可以加一星
太難看了 救命 歌怎麼可以那麼難聽？？？ 這個編曲我上我也行 表演也太用力了救命啊
惊喜加菲 开场就炸
一部关于天才音乐剧剧作家的传记电影……30岁时也曾有这样的倒计时焦虑，30岁之后就平静了……希望每个人的倒数时刻都是新的开始而不是梦想追逐的结束
天才人生中永远只有过路人，从情感角度的解读倒是有几分《后翼弃兵》的后劲了。
观感比较套路行活儿，倒数时刻的寓意似乎中途从三十而立危机转向了生命易逝、友谊可贵等方向，AIDS的打断又让人串戏到加菲的《天使在美国》……
影片是乔纳森拉尔森的个人传记片，讲述充满音乐剧才华天赋的他是如何在穷困潦倒一文不名的时候坚守梦想最后终于成功的故事，他创作的最成功的音乐剧《吉屋出租》在百老汇上演了13年，可他却在《吉屋出租》出演第一场前因病去世了，可谓是悲剧天才。
那个大姐说的对，写自己熟悉的东西才能引起共鸣，不落俗套的歌舞片，看着各种转场衔接有点儿跳脱，回想起来却是很感动，大概就是音乐和艺术的魅力，以及加菲真是个宝藏男孩啊，没想到！
希望哪天可以看到完整的Superbia。
好于 91% 歌舞片 ?? 反正还是觉得芝加哥和红磨坊无法超越
把任何困難都盡全力去樂觀，永遠積極的人，觀眾看著總會覺得他在天才和傻屌之間徘徊，黎明前的黑暗果然就是最黑的，咬牙拼了。故事背後的故事，令人心疼。
