This early 70's giallo by Umberto Lenzi is certainly among the best in his filmography and also in the whole genre. Personally I think Lenzi's best films are the funny cartoon-turned-film Kriminal, the stylish giallo Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, the explosive Napoli violenta and this. In the eighties he did plenty of film trash in form of Eaten Alive, Hitcher in the Dark or Black Demons, all of which are ripping something off and/or very dull and slow moving. Knife of Ice came when the giallo boom was at its hottest and the result is convincing.
Technically the film is superb, containing great cinematography in the beginning when we learn about the main character's trauma towards trains. From this point on, Lenzi shows us his ability to benefit the widescreen and, for example, the bicycle ride near the forest is genuinely beautiful! This scene also shows Lenzi's ability to build suspense, very slowly but meaningfully. After all, there aren't so many murders in the whole film, only the suspense circulating around the murderer's identity.
One suspect is a devil worshipper which brings new aspects to the mystery. Since the final scene takes place in a church, one can wonder if Lenzi wanted to comment on something, maybe the hypocritical morale of church and superstition. The main character (Carrol Baker) is mute which demands a lot from her face and eyes. The actress works very well, giving us a believable performance circulating around the emotions of fear and mental pain. The other actors are good, too. The finally, however, may not give too positive a sight about female sex since they all are expressed rather negatively in the film, one way or another. Still this is easily among the most noteworthy in the genre, not as bloody as the Argento films, for example, but equally suspenseful and visually also interesting.
1. 剪辑是真的烂 2. 就J.K Simmons这里的表演来提名男配是真的说不过去🤷🏻♂️
故事挺简单和无聊的，不过出门以后的镜语拍得真的很有趣，感觉非常适合低成本拍摄者学习。
工整到无趣，最近的传记片看完都是这个感受，即使索金出手也一样。
很难找到让人看下去的理由，表演也并没有那么精彩
apple google amazon都没想着冠名赞助一下这部电影吗？语音助手从来没以这么正面的形象出现在电影中过吧。。最恐怖的看来还是人心
P.S2：射钉枪建议列入管制武器。
台词多到令人提不起兴致 影片聚焦Lucille事业、爱情双重危机的一周 通过围读与彩排展现人物性格 最后两个方案的取舍是亮点 巧妙地展现了Lucille内心的变化
之前觉得艾伦·索金的剧本里的对话是他身为剧作家最值得夸耀的地方，可是在这电影里只觉得这一大段一大段的对话从演员嘴里背出来都会烫嘴。
电影就像一道奥数题，看一遍就明白了，就失去兴趣，看三遍还不明白，一样会失去兴趣。这个就恰到好处，第二遍看完，通透，完美。
小巧可爱的当代“B-movie”，和《零和一》一样殊途同归地找到了数字世界的物质性。
7.4(3⃣️)，疫情背景下互联网时代特殊的后窗偷窥者，以精简的有效的方式呈现于密闭空间中，用声音营造恐惧，再展开一场猫鼠游戏一样的噩梦博弈。晃动的手持镜头和倾斜视角将恐惧感通过画面投射至我们身处的大数据围剿中，而影片巧妙又毫不费力地呈现了一个酣畅又骇人的故事——对抗自我，对抗权力和体系，对抗真实的恶

The last scene was good

妮可·基德曼在一众高管会议桌上铿锵犀利力排众议的镜头很惊艳，让我迫切想要了解这段真正的历史，看好奥斯卡封后👍
3.5 整个剧情走向非常诡谲魔幻带些讽刺，最后反杀确实也是爽歪歪。
疫情之下的后窗故事+窃听，算不上精彩，点点小紧张。在家隔离也能拯救半个世界，其实好好带个口罩，整个世界都会平和。6
Nicole kidman这脸都快认不出了。。这电影中间时间线看得一度很混乱

20220113 除了前1/3節奏慢了點,其他也沒什麼好挑剔的，也許是因為對白太快有些沒有完全聽明白，只抓到了那種感覺，就是嗯有才華的女人被困於各種桎梏中的事情，一遍又一遍的在時代長河裡上演，然後像泡沫消失，少數幾個成為後人光影中的故事
