Two differences between this Austrian version and the generally available American version are immediately obvious: they differ both in their length and in the language of the intertitles. The American version is only 1,883 metres long - at 18 frames per second a difference of some 7 minutes to the Austrian version with 2,045 metres. Whereas we originally presumed only a negligible difference, resulting from the varying length of the intertitles, a direct comparison has nevertheless shown that the Austrian version differs from the American version both in the montage and in the duration of individual scenes. Yet how could it happen that the later regional distribution of a canonical US silent film was longer than the "original version"?
The prevalent American version of Blind Husbands does not correspond to the version shown at the premiere of 1919. This little-known fact was already published by Richard Koszarski in 1983. The film was re-released by Universal Pictures in 1924, in a version that was 1,365 feet (416 metres) shorter. At 18 frames per second, this amounts to a time difference of 20 minutes! "Titles were altered, snippets of action removed and at least one major scene taken out entirely, where von Steuben and Margaret visit a small local chapel." (Koszarski)
From the present state of research we can assume that all the known American copies of the film derive from this shortened re-release version, a copy of which Universal donated to the Museum of Modern Art in 1941. According to Koszarski the original negative of the film was destroyed sometime between 1956 and 1961 and has therefore been irretrievably lost. This information casts an interesting light on the Austrian version, which can be dated to the period between the summer of 1921 and the winter of 1922. Furthermore, the copy is some 200 metres longer than the US version of 1924. If one follows the details given by Richard Koszarski and Arthur Lennig, this means that, as far as both its date and its length are concerned, the Austrian version lies almost exactly in the middle between the (lost) version shown at the premiere and the re-released one.A large part of the additional length of the film can be traced to cuts that were made to the 1924 version in almost every shot. Koszarski describes how the beginning and the end of scenes were trimmed, in order to "speed up" the film. However, more exciting was the discovery that the Austrian version contains shots that are missing in the American one - shots/countershots, intertitles - and furthermore shows differences in its montage (i.e. the placing of the individual shots within a sequence). All this indicates that Die Rache der Berge constitutes the oldest and most completely preserved material of the film.
后半部分节奏把控得很好，明知道where it would go我们还是不由自主地屏住呼吸。
大魔王到底起了个什么作用？很多没有说明白的地方，表达的也比较隐晦。
陀螺又把自己最喜欢的那些东西拍成了一部电影，但这个剧情确实差点意思。
心中总有缺口
美术果然好的非常陀螺，本来以为是反诈骗片，结果最后变成了戒酒片……ps所以为啥不把画画的技能好好运用下…另外好莱坞女星的抗老医美真的有点过了……
看完也没什么值得回味细究的东西，就是一个名导演的作品看完罢了，没啥惊喜
怪不得库珀露点也要接这部片，这剧本太优秀了
改编加的几句台词太好了 You don’t fool people, Stan, people fool themselves. 凯特布兰切特真是个大魔王。好喜欢fantasy和陀螺的暗黑童话风。
看到kate和rooney又共演了就买了票去看，还以为能看到些基情，有些小遗憾。电影的话就感觉没什么意思。当能刚好又让我思考一下欧美那个年代所共有的马戏团回忆，还是蛮有趣的
Cooper演得太棒了。
3.5介於喜歡與平庸之間，沒看過舊版所以無從比較，單看新版各方面都顯精緻，甚至工整到有些平庸了，2個半小時雖然拍的很完整，但觀影到後半段漸漸有種不需要拍那麼長的想法，演員整體演出就跟本片光影與叙事一樣精緻，凱特布蕑琪的眼神真的很強，跟魯尼短暫同框算是圓了因為愛你CP再次同台的心願。一個騙子走火入魔到失去一切的故事，不想成為自己的父親，不想成為馬戲團的怪胎被當奇珍異獸展示，但是最
玉面情魔感觉拍的半旧不新的😂可能是翻拍的原因，就感觉应该是上个世纪的电影，但是硬件什么的又确实是现在的电影有股割裂感😂but冲魔王这设定这声音值3颗星😂
我目前最喜欢的一部陀螺，一部彻头彻尾的Spooky show in a carnival。Cooper最后的嘶吼比小李子近年来的花式乱吼加起来都有感染力loll
复古精致，视觉的饕餮盛宴！骗中骗、蛇蝎美人、西装革履的斯文败类、一场阴谋以及一段危险关系，能看出陀螺对好莱坞黄金时代的缅怀与执念。也许是“不合时宜”的电影，但也是如今这个充斥着快餐文化的时代所需要的电影。带着五味杂陈的心情写下这段感受，但也许再过几分钟我就只在乎《奇异博士2》《蜘蛛侠》们到底能不能上？！
陀螺这回好像想事无巨细，面面俱到的把故事呈现出来，可结果就是长的离谱，反而放大了故事的缺点。但服化道还是一如既往的精致，另外鲁妮玛拉很美（*/∇＼*）。
今年奥斯卡提名电影都魔怔了似的加片长，复刻黑色电影经典的本片也不例外，陀螺个人的情怀私货更多体现在美术设计和氛围营造上，服化道尽显功力，然而故事却讲得寡淡如水，叙事节奏松松垮垮，情节注水看得沉闷乏味，对社会阴暗面的揭露与控诉如隔靴搔痒，何况留了一大堆隐线却交代得不清不楚，人物线和剧情线都如一团麻一样欠个收拢，一群名角儿加盟的豪华卡司也改变不了时代变了，这类的作品早就没有市场的空间了。
而结尾也算是还愿了
3.5星。叙事结构和叙事节奏非常老谋深算、不动声色、曲径通幽，情绪非常克制，因而批判性更强。巴登大叔的表演无懈可击，装腔作势自我标榜得入木三分。
众多人物的设置，相互背景和新旧关系，引发一连串的戏剧冲突，具有挺自然和流畅的交互。满腹经纶满嘴仁义道德的老板，最终依然长袖善舞化险为夷，成为笑到最后的那个大大大赢家。最有可能倒逼资本的那几个，最终也耍尽阴谋成了花样赢家。而我们以为处处都掌握一手好棋子的被解雇会计师，则是唯一的一个输家。反套路之下，道尽魔幻。四个字——因吹斯汀。
值得称道一点的就是光影和凯布的表演……有些故事属于写了开头结尾就已然注定了。库珀之于本片男主约等于大本之于gone girl男主——气质是服帖的演技是没有的
