Novelist Joseph Shearing specialized in using real cases which took place in Victorian England, altering them for fictional purposes. MOSS ROSE in 1947 was the first film to be made from his novels, then in 1948 two of his works were adapted for the screen, this film and THE MARK OF CAIN. The movie stars Todd as a recently widowed missionary returning to her home in England from Jamaica. During the voyage, she meets Milland, a charming though dangerous rascal who is wanted by police in connection with some unsavory dealings. Milland contracts malaria while onboard the ship and Todd nurses him back to health. In London, Todd settles into her home, taking in boarders to make ends meet. Milland arrives, moves in, and proclaims his love for her. Todd is thrilled, but it seems rather obvious that Milland is only toying with her. Milland finds some letters written to her by her friend, Fitzgerald, in which Fitzgerald reveals some of her sexual indiscretions. Since Fitzgerald is now married to the wealthy Huntley, Milland believes he can use the letters to blackmail Fitzgerald. Todd's love for Milland is so great that she goes along with the plan. Huntley, however, learns of the scheme and also uncovers details of Milland's shady past. Fearing for her lover's safety, Todd poisons Huntley, then remains silent when Fitzgerald is arrested for the murder. Milland has by now genuinely fallen in love with Todd and the two make plans to leave England. Before they can depart, one of Milland's former lovers shows up and Todd, in a jealous rage, kills Milland, then turns herself into the police.
This is an intriguing film, although a little on the talky side. The performances are excellent throughout, with Milland shining as the cad, the type of role in which he excelled. Though he spent most of his time making films in the US, he occasionally returned to his native England for a production and this was his first British film since FRENCH WITHOUT TEARS in 1939. Director Allen was also an Englishman who chose to work in the US, this being his first directorial effort in his homeland. This was the fourth and last time Milland and Allen would work together, their pairing having begun in 1944 with the wonderfully eerie THE UNINVITED.
小成本，戏很简单，剪辑一般，节奏缓慢。人物性格模糊，行为合理性存疑。
因为未接触过，所以觉得很新奇。遇车路过那段完全不需要，回家之后吃点东西洗个澡就可以end了，或者结尾再加段重遇谈几句和女主的特写就cut了吧，给点留白就行。(三星半)
这个电影拍的又有意思，又没意思。但是男主角 Alessandro Nivola在几个月前，为我主演的电影《SOME OF OUR STALLIONS》点过赞，而且我也是非常欣赏他的演技，所以我给了该电影三星！一星为好莱坞最好的演员Alessandro Nivola ！
节奏不错，故事后面奇迹发生是主角自己的幻想，感觉男主也是渣男！
以及，有些角色可能作者自己都不知道存在有什么意义吧。
快进吧，徒步总会有这种意外。但是每次的精神享受也是其他无法比拟的，没去当驴友的人体会不了，可能是为了放空，猎险，突破自我极限，但是，自己为自己行为买单就好了。
什么玩意儿啊？！传统美国黑帮意大利帮派电影里，硬生生安插黑人进去是什么操作？
哇！我就喜欢这种闭环故事！有点想看原版小说了！
与瑞茜·威瑟斯彭主演的《涉足荒野》如出一辙，都是自我救赎重新面对社会的一种方式。只不过娜奥米沃茨以54岁高龄出演这样尺度的小制作是否值得？
6分。关键问题在于没有DRAMA，又打动不了人心。如果主角因为害死孩子而从而圣母心的内容能放在开头可能会更好一些。现在这种倒叙的手法使得观众很难共情为啥女主要拼了命去救一个陌生人，还是在这个陌生人不断自我作死的情况下。Naomi Watts的素颜有点没法看。。。
一段黑道家族史，以暴力获得利益，最后死在枪口下也是所得其所，食色性也暴力的背后都有欲望的推动，问题是渴望，生命就是解决痛苦，痛苦的来源就是不断的要东西。
Malgorzata能拍出这样通俗易懂的小型商业片已经是很难得的事儿了 看点确实都在Naomi的表演上 能在这个岁数参与到这样的小型电影里卖力地演成这样 佩服
無聊時還是可以一看,劇情要稍微想一下才能理清
悬疑的真相平平无奇，叙事手法却挺有趣。日剧中触动心灵的小感动没有缺席，无出轨就编不了故事的传统也一如既往。
比预想的观感体验要好的电影
救赎的主题，好莱坞可谓是百拍不厌，这一次要不是看演员表，我都没认出女主是Naomi Watts，她因为煤气造成泄漏两个女儿的死亡，而通过上山救援为自己赎罪，在救赎别人的同时也完成了自我救赎，导演通过“灾难片”这个类型外壳，表达了一个简单的主题，无甚新意但也不难看吧，毕竟雪山的困境在镜头前被展现的蛮真实。
风间就是丑版且没演技的刘佩琦，他和本田翅膀那部演的还不够让人恶心吗。以他这种长相实力除了背靠大事务没其他解释。
近期看过的最好看的电影之一，不明白给两星的人用意何在。
都2022年了还“当然是选择原谅她”，这是碳基生物能写出来的剧本吗？难看到让人发笑。不得不说舔狗是真的牛批。
没看过电视剧。真有些世事无常的道理，最后被自己人一些小事矛盾而刺杀啊。。。准备刷电视剧吧。。。
