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.
对于新冠很真实的写照，讲一个故事，记录一段事件，拍的真好。长镜头+虚焦把焦虑和无助完全表现，朱迪演技真棒！今年已经好几部大片了，大火！
这是对新冠病毒正确的打开方式，简陋的医疗物资几乎靠自己命硬工作，根本没有人会来，只能等死，没有急救车，而这些人连成为一个数字的资格都没有，就这么被关起来按上钉子敲敲打打封印起来，仅仅3个月死了将近4w9，而且大多数来自更需要被看护的护理院，记得新冠在年前有个女孩，妈妈发烧送到急救中心，去世后直接被一辆车拖走，女孩追着载有母亲遗体的车追着奔跑厮喊拍打着车门，妈妈只是感冒了，不要带走我的妈妈，ZGYS在拍点什么，还没当时直播火神山和雷神山感人
就那样吧 能看而已。
Jodie Comer是个好演员，比国内的片子更能打动人
绝望的午夜这场戏朱迪·科默演得真好，只是结局的出逃有点突然... 三星半
每一个个体意志，在群体意志面前，都显得如此渺小
沉浸式体验会让人觉得紧凑紧张，小心翼翼的善良输出却和这个世界格格不入
以及，一遍遍想起重要的人的死亡，这真是一件太残忍的事。
镜头打一开始就很压抑，节奏有种刻意的凌乱。叙事的时间线很简单，推进很快，高潮在一瞬间爆发，结尾像是一种呐喊。五星是因为电影讲出了一种真实。总有阳光照不到的地方，但同样需要被人看到。
医疗体系被击溃的时候，人类的生命和尊严会远远比影片中来得残酷吧。Jodie的口音真的好奶～
第千标的电影
题材相当不错，触碰社会敏感话题，相比相同题材养老电影，故事深挖不够 ，缺乏亮点 。
如何在年老体衰 生活不能自理的时候 还能获得有尊严的生活 太难了 这个社会对于老年人的临终岁月 总是缺乏足够的尊重 毕竟生命的消亡是一种损耗 不像新生 充满希望 还是希望老年的自己能走得体面点 更多的临终关怀可以早点合法引进国内
三星半吧。。。。。年轻的萨拉来到residence care 担任看护，就职数月间她以爱心耐心赢得一众老人和看护之家领导肯定(*¯︶¯*)与此同时她也熟悉了这些可爱而脆弱的老顽童们，如口成章前任教师 格里斯…… 当然还有她第一个病人汤姆。。。汤姆纯善机制，可惜年纪轻轻罹患早老老年痴呆，时不时忘记母亲已逝的事实而常常离家出走。。。。(((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o))) 不经意间又到了2020那个令所有人难忘的日子（；゜０゜）我们又看到几代人隔窗相望、lockdown 、垃圾袋PPE 。。。之前30分钟铺陈太成功以致后面1小时历史回顾众人离去 、以及萨拉孤军奋战、独立难支、痛苦绝望自然流露，令观者感同身受当年欧美养老院的惨状以及看护人员无助和绝望
而看到短剧中老人院的痴呆老人们和亲人隔窗见面却不明白为什么亲人们不进来看他们的时候

有点空，对于新冠→制度的指控浮在表面，少很多应该说的东西，情绪也总是缺失积攒的过程直接爆发，走向也有点奇怪，摸不到头脑.jpg
这样的视角去呈现疫情下人们的生存状态比咱们的“中国医生”更真实，更有力量~我收藏的女神从来都不可能只是个花瓶
拒绝煽情，不需要宏大的叙事，只需要简单真实的讲述这件事 中间一段长镜头很窒息，朱迪演得仿若真实体验
学业不优没人关爱的坏女孩，在养老院谋了个护工任职，新冠来袭，老人们同事们相继感染，政府救助力不能及，女孩绝境中奋力……写实作品拍出了张力，看着很舒服，节奏没有压迫，带入感极佳，两主演颠覆惯有银幕形象，毫不违和……英音腔好怪啊……到头来还是中国帮忙吧～
