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.
一切都是为了爱。
精巧圆熟又憨态可掬的仿希区柯克小品。配乐和配色都很怡人，社恐还挺萌的。典范类型片，所见最佳（或唯一可观）的索德伯格。
前半部分太冗长了，没必要，最后反杀几个坏蛋的时候还挺爽的，那个胖子邻居全部的作用居然就是帮助女主拖住坏蛋，一开始还以为也是坏蛋呢，anyway，万物互联还可以这样玩，有点意思，不得不说，美帝就是怪咖多
虎头蛇尾，除了主角所有角色都是工具人，摄影枯燥无比，故事一句话就能讲清楚。唯一的亮点可能是各种声音的交织。
故事短小精悍 层次分明 不错的影视小品
还挺好？拍没什么层次的故事的都请参照这个合适的时长，很尊重观众。
为什么我喜欢的电影分这么低？因为我很特别！我觉得电影超级不错，剧情虽然简单，但是非常低成本，拍摄手法和镜头也非常细腻，角度拍摄特是做足了功课，音乐也配的超级棒。质感不凡的小成本影片，性价比非常高的电影。整个基调装修风格，人物特写！我爱死了，很文艺很有质感的小小黑暗悬疑片。豆瓣还是很难接受小众又多元电影，非要逼格高，内容真实……
希区柯克是大多数导演绕不开的一个坑，开发了一个疫情时代的社恐后窗故事，还有迪帕马的凶线
为啥别人的kimi如此丝滑，我的天猫精灵就是个智障
以为是哪个新晋导演拍的没想到是索德伯格-.- 只能说是很成功的商业片吧 把时下各种值得关注的主题堆砌在一起，看得很过瘾，女主的形象更像是符号
以男主的身份，他在发现警局内部的惊天黑幕后，不应该有企图弄清真相将黑恶势力绳之以法的想法和责任吗，然而他没有，即使在拯救女友时捎带地查一下案子，他也没有，他只是一心一意救女友，心无旁骛，这是一部百分百的爱情片呀。
B+ 老派的框架融注当下的话题，视听跟随着女主的主观感知而变化，信手拈来的镜头调度使其不安情绪在内流动（听取信息的叠化镜头、追逐戏的斜角镜头，电子屏幕-窗口的类比与对比绝妙，在物理窗口中仅能凭意识推断的模糊信息却在网络数据中清晰明了，而电影屏幕即是信息交互的透明窗口，观众的焦虑应运而生
B级片的模样。其实有时候看看那种没有深刻含义，不用体会深远意义，不用耗费脑细胞，也不错。非常简单的故事，不知道为什么在韩国本土属于限制级，抓毒的贩毒，难道是这点黑暗吗
就不能手动开个灯？杀手就这？
物联网现代版后窗，概念很不错，别具一格，把小度小爱都吓得一激灵。不过作为戴眼镜的人当你找不到眼镜的时候一定会呼叫同伴帮忙找啊。
女主是处女座吧，哈哈哈～结尾可真是扣人心弦，好看得很！
出门恐惧症患者疫情下居家办公福音，不出门系统bug修复程序员计件拿提成灵活用工新业态………最后拨打911那段“有人闯入，有人受伤，还有三具尸体……”太酷了
一切都是为了爱。
无聊极了 网大广告 各种电子产品广告 资本/消费主义女孩最爱的产品集合 包括这种公寓和生活方式 处理音频那段太搞笑了 且不说能不能处理成那样 就明明插件能搞定非要搬出硬件装逼秀一下 btw当今这种技术水平阶段 非常讨厌某猫精灵/某爱同学这类蠢玩意儿
Can’t really finish it, the actress is way too egregiously annoying and constantly distracted me.
