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.
我其实觉得两男主的感情是莫名其妙的，毕竟一开始男主和他女朋友相处还挺甜的，事业也不差有爸爸一路护航，emmm。而且就男主的感情问题，不管他喜欢男性还是女性，在已经有固定伴侣的情况下还和别人发生关系，总是让人感觉不舒服很别扭……
节奏非常快，感觉像看了一部Neo-noir风格的罪案惊悚片。网飞选在这个时候发布，说没有政治考量我是不信的。眼看着波兰右翼越来越疯魔，80年代迫害性少数的风信子行动也改头换面卷土重来，用仇恨围剿LGBT。最近的宪法官司让我分外好奇欧盟接下来会不会开除大波波...
那种感觉就像有一天gay朋友给我说 如果他不是gay 他走在路上脚步都会轻快
Netflix. 越看越上瘾的节奏，Robert 和 Arek 小哥确实好磕“run, run away" "together?"
班尼：老子不在江湖多年，想不到江湖还有爷的大名...
还好吧，故事背景我很喜欢，主角的颜我也比较喜欢。但是故事本身没有拍得很touching，而且各种追踪枪战戏拍得有点儿戏。三星半吧
我看的版本是112分钟的。男主眼珠很漂亮。超想看那盘录像带！！艾瑞克为什么不开枪！！蠢零！！结尾感觉好无力。
虽然故事讲的有点乱，但意外是即使除去同性的部分，依旧是部能看得下去的完整电影，而且质感有加分。
长官的儿子好查案 只是业务能力不太行 昏黄、冰冷的色调以及节奏和设定都很带感 表演也无可指摘 只是故事本身可以更好点的
看上什么？青春活力永远吸引人。与其说爱情为落点，两人的情感黏着，混着勇敢自由、坦白相信、怜惜。这个表达又好像被事件削弱了。
色调阴冷，节奏紧张，铁幕笼罩下一丝追寻自由的光，挺动人的。P.S.男主的眼睛真好看啊！
“快走，我会找到你的。”
剧情太拉不予评价，不经常看脸打分但arek跟高经毛子各角度都长得太像了导致我自从他出场开始就全程梆硬，小狗脸斯拉夫男孩我的一生之敌！！！！！！！！不过波兰人保质期为什么这么短（Kuba除外），不看卡司表完全没法认出另外两位Tomasz，明明以前还给他俩的片都做过字幕（掬泪
还蛮爱的。天哪！只是在想为什么西方国家会这么讨厌同性恋？
剧情索然无味，几乎每一分钟都是煎熬，即使有两段昏暗的果体船戏，中弃。
又是一个沉重压抑的故事。剧本很丰满，可看性蛮高。
导演和演技都不咋行，编剧倒是有点东西啊，晋江有房吧（狗头。可惜结尾节奏也崩了。讲政治讲得太浅啦，真就网文水平。
故事讲的完整有逻辑，这么简单的事情，很多电影做不到。
西部枪战片，讲述了一个你大爷还是你大爷的故事，不幸的是，这次大爷是Mr. 东郭。情节简单，但胜在美景如画，拓荒年代的美国口音几乎听不懂，彼时Sheriff 出身可能都是outlaws ，而后被招安，唯一的takeaway。
这些被迫害的人，在警局留下了被迫害的档案。风信子，这么美丽的名字，背后却是如此沉重的一段历史。把这些有迹可循的历史拍成电影，纵使沉重也是有意义的作品。只是在人类漫长的历史中，在不同的时空中，又有多少颗心被淹没被隐藏被遗忘。
