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.
中国动画史上不错的作品了,三只狐狸精比主角还抢戏~
昨天在b站重温了一遍 即使过了十多年 电影里的很多小细节都记得 这部作品简直神来之笔
在选修课上看的~~~就以现在的眼光来看~这部二十多年前的动画片依旧是国产动画业的翘楚~~~
国产，CCAV播的，记住很多奇怪的东西= =
精良的动画呀 仔细看 跑动中的背景没有一张重复的 这就是态度！！
那个狐狸我印象一直很深。。觉得她长的很像某个幼儿园阿姨。。
4K修复版在片尾加了一段纪录短片，才晓得项目源起是BBC递来合拍动画的剧本，上美厂在其基础上重构故事（改编《平妖传》），彻底甩开束缚，往搞怪喜剧的方向制作。人物造型和场景设计一如既往取材自传统绘画，叙事的展开非常松弛且自由，而我最惊讶的还是片子的讽刺力度，对官场、宗教、市民都有丝毫不留情面的批判。在西游记、白蛇传、封神榜风靡市场的当下，动画前辈的艺术观念仍是最超前的，他们用作品诠释着继承与创新。钱运达导演提到的“奇、趣、美”的标准，如今有几部国产动画真正达到了呢？把哪吒和赛博朋克结合、把青蛇扔到现代都市，只是画虎不成反类犬，真正的现代性在于反叛精神，《大闹天宫》《哪吒闹海》的立意远未被超越。
我哥哥现在的女朋友长得很像这部动画里的老狐狸精！！！
剧本并不能说特别好，但妙在各自之间，每个角色的独特设计与演出，以及角色与场景的融洽。相比日本动画擅长的横轴延展，本作呈现中国动画的形式在于多处化横向银幕矩形为局部视野，以纵向徐徐拉开一幅幅卷轴画，上至云顶，下至城邑，天界人间的神话体系早已决定着这种现代演绎形式。
国产动画自大闹天宫继承文化遗产剪影与泥人风格并改良后 即处于停滞状态 之后更是退化 二战后苏俄琢磨战时迪士尼作画 在光影上进步巨大 但国产动画直到葫芦娃几乎没有任何进步 说是出道即巅峰也好 但其传说性已经脱离了现代生活 魔方大厦和舒克贝塔虽是例外 却又开启了风格劣化的时代 才有了今天这个结果
每一帧胶片修复的都是光影与时间。
上美厂作为建国后几代国人的共同记忆，在美学风格上是曾经达到过迪士尼、吉卜力的水平的，虽然因为更加注重传统文化的本土表达，在思想内核的普世性上比两者差一些，但也更凸显了中国动画王者的地位。只是市场化浪潮之下，别说上美厂，连吉卜力都日渐式微了（前几年花大力气做出来的《辉夜姬物语》算是最后的辉煌了），也就迪士尼能凭借全球化的先发优势到处攻城略地。在3D动画的大潮下，欧洲的黏土动画已经好多年都没有代表作品了，上美厂曾经的水墨、木偶、剪纸、皮影动画更是几乎绝迹。好在，去年6月份腾讯视频、今年10月份西瓜视频开始陆续上线上美厂的超清修复作品，现在院线又上映了《天书奇谭》的4K修复版，闲置许久的老胶片终于可以利用起来了。
故事比较简单但确实是古代民间故事的味儿，画面则是杂糅了多种传统艺术，脸谱、剪纸、传统玩具、年画、寺庙绘画的元素均有引用，因此影片的民族特色非常鲜明，这也是本片盛赞的一点。联系诞生年代即可知影片中诸多赤裸裸的讽刺源自哪个时代——那个时代的创作者是不可能回避这个主题的。比《大闹天宫》《哪吒闹海》弱，因为不管是主题还是画面表现都差了一截。
我也不清楚小时候特别爱看动画片的我为什么没看过这部动画片。看片明以为是个框架很大的故事，没想到是个格局很小的一个故事。剧情很简单，一句话就能概括：小孩除妖的故事。故事适合全年龄段观看。袁公简直就是中国的普罗米修斯，相比于师父的大格局心态，天庭玉帝却是小心眼。直接表达了上层阶级对下层阶级对于资源的封杀与统治，这种改编对于权威的辛辣讽刺非常大胆。同时影片还讽刺了普通百姓的封建迷信、官场的利益熏心和愚昧贪心的皇帝。而且本片对于反派角色的描写比主角还要多，还要丰富和立体。反派一伙人的戏份明显比蛋生要多。美术很棒，水墨画风格现在看也很美。配乐也是一流的，而配音演员则是非常强大的阵容。这才是纯正的中国特色的动画电影。由于我没有这片的童年情怀，所以我只能给四颗星。毕竟现在看来多少有些过时了。8分。
还记得小时候第一次看是在一个夜晚……不知道为什么电视台要在大晚上的放动画片。然后觉得那个老狐狸精的那张脸很鬼魅……
豆瓣250极度不靠谱ING.这都能入选？？！
害怕天书被坏人利用，玉皇大帝的解法是让任何人都看不到天书；天书流窜人间引起风波后不得已被焚，流传的唯一解法是存入脑中。上海美影厂的动画确实『探民族艺术之路 敲喜剧样式之门』达成“奇 趣 美”：传统与乐团交响的配乐一直有特色地好，这部的天书法术创意更是让人目不暇接，拍手叫好：群鸟治蝗、聚宝盆儿、蛋尿治病、一群爸爸、百鸟朝凤、龙虎大战、五手追书……最惊喜的是看到“击鼓疗腿”，节奏终于派上了好用场～「剧终」时后排的爸爸说“感觉没演完，应该有下部吧？”，下部就是《大闹天宫》吧。
我拥有这部作品的漫画版，哦，那个年代叫做小人书。剧情很赞！起承转合都很赞！无论是正派还是反派都刻画的那么到位。苍天啊，那时的国产动画真好！
刚开始以为是black humor，记过他说是惊悚片？
能感受到想表达什么，但是太生硬和不聪明了。
