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.
这都能送,我一看递过来水下意识就想不能喝啊,这心也太大了
类似饥饿游戏那样（猎杀成了娱乐直播）的恶心社会环境下，一部本尊可克隆体之间的宫斗戏，可怜的本尊，承受了恶心亲妈跟恶心男友那么多恶意。
结局复制体落泪 回到表层我只能解读成愧疚 然而之后才知道 是被迫接受人生的痛苦
《天鹅挽歌》类似的设定，克隆人有了活下去的意愿，身边人也喜欢上了克隆人。在决斗来临之际，克隆人毒死了本体，用本体身份活了下去，但是带给她的是无尽的枷锁，循环着本体的痛苦。
看睡着了… peter和mom都想要sd代替sarah活下来我是没想到的…特别是mom，徒步途中毒害死sarah应该是三个人的主意吧
感觉回来的应该还是原身吧，看她对于母亲跟男友的话的反应，应该是讽刺他们知道克隆体要毒杀她的内情，都希望她死，而她只能继续假装克隆体活着，可悲
设定挺有意思，虽然整部电影的演员都是一副面瘫的样子，而且完全没有任何波澜，但不影响剧情走向和发展，克隆人真的是一种违背人伦的存在啊……三星半。
看到是自卫的艺术导演新电影，毫不犹豫就看了。非常喜欢这种先进行一个非常奇怪荒诞的设定然后里面所有人都一本正经的奇奇怪怪。最后不明着表现出来让观众自己理解到底是谁活了下来。
科幻的设定很好，故事结构也可以，只可惜了女主太过天真，让贱人得逞还要再矫情。有些细节应该呼应得更好，比如眼睛👁️颜色
中毒死亡的照片 解剖车祸的女尸 母亲提醒隐形眼镜 三处都暗示过最后活下来的是本体
本体甚至都无法爱自己，最后活下来也不过继续是他人的依附，自我的躯壳。
VHS老粉了，伪纪录片中的重口味邪典。94和之前的系列在风格一脉相承，但故事上，除了第三个机械实验灵光乍现，其他都太平庸和保守（见过前三部的大风大浪，这部看得内心毫无波澜）。镜头虽然还是很糊，但摆拍比较明显，真实感大打折扣。贯穿拼盘的主线故事也含糊不清，略失望吧。
虽然是我感兴趣的题材，不过拍得挺陈腔滥调，明明黑镜三十分钟就能讲完的故事，拖得这么长。
对我来说是三星半，多的半星打给导演从《自卫艺术》以来的进步。整个片子的节奏和黑色幽默的点都很有导演的风格，情节铺展也舒服爽利，是个精干的小品型电影，高概念低现实度，从片头一直抓人到结尾。 不足之处是觉得角色都有点平和意料之中了，矛盾更像是做出来的困境而非自然发展。 不过结尾结得很棒！我超喜！
过程平淡 结局惊艳 耐人寻味！导演埋了很多小细节，让观众自己解谜！个人最喜欢的绝对是，结尾处的碎屏手机和在环岛逆向行驶的汽车
我能理解男朋友 但理解不了母亲的做法 畸形的社会规则 题材不错
挺喜欢这种把设定扔在观众面前然后就这么自然发生和展开的方式，有种无可奈何的丧和虚实相间的喜剧感。不过大概也就是这些了。
6分。科幻外衣下的人性探讨。许多对白还是很精炼的，还很黑色幽默，故事讲得很流畅，最后的结局也在意料之中。
结局其实是导演耍花招 我也成功被误导了然而从表层到里层再回到表层才是观影体验最有意思的地方
本体活。参考片头那场决斗，克隆体男的赢就直接说自己是克隆体就行了。
