The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
北美人民真的好富裕好乐观。动人的旋律始终是百老汇成功的前提条件啊，滚去循环ost。
看群像的剧不如看纪录片有趣。除此以外服装不合我审美。很平庸的剧。
真的不是应招宣传片吗233演技太好了leo这个top真是让人心服口服 没想到叫个鸭能引申到女性身份 自我认同和亲子关系的讨论还能进行心灵疗愈 真是大善！单一场景很考验剧本台词和演技了
没想到有一天，我也会对这种配置的影片内心毫无波澜甚至有点乏了。浪漫会在生活中出现吗
应该看现场，效果会更好，虽然没有那个观看的环境，却能够对其构造的环境感同身受。
没有特别抓耳的歌，印象最深的一段是不同宗教信仰的人一起祈祷。演员真的都很厉害，一人分饰多角，完全不会混淆。看完还是很感动的。
I'm an islander, and No Man Is An Island. 2021年的最后再来看依旧哭唧唧，依旧为这部作品所鼓舞，依旧最喜欢那首汇成同一个旋律的信仰之歌，我们如此不同却又如此相通。
歌好听，故事还行
文广还我现场版！这个故事太好了，消防员的妈妈，女机长，中东男穆斯林...连毛孩子都被照顾到了。20 Anniversary of 9-11
【2021Film55】来自远方（2021）。愿人类都能善待同类和其他的生命。⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
性，是解放人性的唯一渠道。不信你看，手指放下去的最后一个瞬间，她的眼里有了光
是一个自身无比放松柔软的高维度的存在（Leo Grande）普渡众生的故事？肉眼可见Nancy从一块紧绷的铁板慢慢松弛下来的完整过程。我们喜欢喝酒抽烟having sex，因为，all we need is 松弛。
形式与类型：话剧电影，性喜剧。私密、勇气、新身份以及心底的缺角。面对内心是一种勇气。
咋说呢就是一些奔三女追爱豆把刚20的小男孩叫老公的追星女（比如我）就会看一些55岁在嫖20男的电影抵消一下罪恶感【不是
这大概就是美国主旋律题材了，但是很优秀。请假紧凑连贯，音乐动听。演员业务能力真的很强，每一个都很能打，从头到尾都是这些人不停地变装切换人物，他们应该都是热爱舞台的人吧，看到这样的表演也是一种幸运。每次看舞台剧谢幕时演员的敬礼和观众的掌声都让我热泪盈眶，充满热情。
感觉看了一篇音乐剧版的特稿，关于信仰的小段落最打动我
初高中生的议题，对于30+的男人女人还有什么惊喜可言么？
上次看这种单一空间两个人物周旋的电影还是《穿裘皮的维纳斯》，这两部探索性与欲的电影剧本都很强。更喜欢这部电影的选角，两个演员的表演都非常细腻而有层次。一边逃避，一边逼近，一边顾左右而言他，一边深入。最喜欢两个人开头的寒暄，高潮还是自己给的以及结尾来自女性的凝视。再次感叹男主有种古典的完美，好想重金买个俩小时玩玩！
Tonight we honor what was lost.
其实是百老汇原版舞台剧的实拍，但实在是精彩绝伦，再次遗憾错失参加原版舞台剧北京巡演的机会。从另一个角度看9.11事件给大众带来的影响，这个名叫纽芬兰的小岛向所有到来的客人张开双手拥抱他们，以互助和包容照顾他们，在这个特殊时刻让来自世界各地的人感受到爱和支持。无论你是谁，无论你来自哪里，这一刻大家相聚在一起，这一刻大家都是纽芬兰人。
