UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
“我们的灵魂在海上起舞，我们的痛苦也被带走，旋转着消失在泡沫之中。我们不停起舞，没有终结。” 爱，理解，共情，是难得而又宝贵的人生体验。
她曾让我们去思考，为什么煮饭的都是女人，但闻名世界的星级厨师是男人。我第一次面对这样的问题，第一次发现原来“运转良好”的社会秩序当中满是矛盾和对女性的限制。放眼望去，cette discrimination est partout.
女巫: 巫师多数是女性，女性被排除在宗教权力体系的外头，神职人员都是男性，女性要搞神神鬼鬼的东西，没有正规渠道。
6/10。有一种吊诡的解读：永不灭的蜡烛象征美国赋予的幸福和自由等‘‘魔力’’，无论是大姐的大力神天赋（军事力量），还是二姐控制植物和弟弟驾驭动物、姨妈头顶云朵的天气魔法（环境资源），都是源于那座奇迹灯塔的馈赠，一旦失去‘‘魔力’’扶持，拉美人民必将陷入战乱和分裂危机（杀死祖父的骑兵和魔屋的墙裂），而拉美自身潜在的自我整合能力（以隐居的舅舅布鲁诺为代表）只能缝缝补补，除了预言墙裂的能力外无从应对现实危机。除了这层美国中心主义的后殖民叙事外，冲突的羸弱和叙事的突兀和[青春变形记]一脉相承，民族的苦难（外敌入侵/男丁远征）只能由一个浮于表面的天赋（家族继承魔力/变形成小熊猫）进行化解，天赋失控造成的灾祸归结于亲子沟通的不畅，最终由爱和对家族的忠诚来弥补，这本质上是美国影视文化对少数族裔困境的幻想性破解。
那是因为他们是谎言是罪恶是孱弱，而我们是永恒是自由是真实，我们的生命是舞蹈，他们的生命只是一段表演
观感是好的，看到许多人说节奏慢，但我个人还蛮喜欢这种循序渐进的节奏，每个电影都有自己的呼吸和脉搏，整部电影给我的感觉就是一首古典乐。美中不足的是女主通灵的设定过于超脱荒诞，和严肃的大背景产生了脱离。
压抑，背景到情节到色调都压迫灵魂。虽然有些地方的色彩觉得还能做的更好，但是大体的色彩都很棒，构图很喜欢。另外两位主演都好漂亮好有气质，美女
“他们都一样，不管是衣冠楚楚还是衣衫褴褛的家伙，再过两小时，我们谁也分不清谁是疯子、谁是帅哥、谁是囚徒、谁是自由人！”
片尾音乐响起时，我好似陷入到一段灵与肉的二重奏。导演不断用镜头语言暗示的两个女主间飘忽不定的情愫在最后陡然亮明，跨越世俗常态的禁忌之海，构筑起一座不受约束的——牺牲、救赎和爱。
女性的命运决定权在父亲手里，在弟弟手里，在医生手里，在该死的任何男人手里，就是不在女性自己手里。男人有多恶心，就越能衬托女性的美好和天真。女主因为能见鬼被送去精神病院，又因为能见鬼才逃了出来，不知道是幸还是不幸
基本的都能看懂，我是觉得那个男的应该是被逼疯的，若不是真的喜欢不至于很久都没下手，若不是真的喜欢那女的变残疾了还想和她做，或许是那里面男的才是真的变态，舞会上那个女的啥样还去舔别人手，属实恶心。看不懂这点，背景搞的太压抑了，有些细节确实不太明白。
没想到做导演也能有这么好的片子 。不知为何梅拉妮有时还要参演好莱坞小丑的一些烂片
虽然妳没有门，但妳是打开魔法之门的把手啊！！
我太难过了，我能为你们做什么，我能为我们做什么？什么是女巫，什么是疯女人？在我们背后有多少女性伫立，有多少强大的女性化成守护灵？我们的身体，我们的灵魂，我们的故事，一切是怎样发生的，又将如何被讲述？“为什么相信上帝没问题，相信鬼魂却不可以？”也许上帝和鬼魂分别是阳与阴的两面，共同组成一个更高的维度，那地上跑的，大声宣传的，主宰着所谓的光明；那不被允许讨论的，暗处流传的，也将默默延续。痛恨一部分人控制另一部分人的所有道义，中世纪精神疗法、政治的武德、政策的制定………希望更高维度的世界得以被呈现。
诚意推荐。尽管故事结局不是我预想的，但总体还是很不错的。无论是故事内核还是外在架构，都很不错。尤其是画面拍的太美了，感觉像是在看19世纪的法国油画！而且配乐也相当给力啊！女性编剧和导演的原因吗？讲述故事的方法和视角很细腻，环环相扣，想一口气赶紧看完。是自我意识的觉醒，是对曾经所谓“科学权威”的质疑，是进步，是自由。好喜欢法语文学啊，真美！
有一段蒙太奇脱掉束腰的片段很好，束腰这种建立在男性审美上的产物对女性身体就是伤害，这么多年了，对女性的压迫从来没有停止，哪里都一样
惊悚片也可以拍得这么有美感！
很好的题材。所有的一切为了主题服务，所以故事的推进不够流畅，人物的挖掘也欠深度。警惕绝对理性。为了医学的发展我们牺牲了多少，打着科学的旗号又残害了多少。最后疯女人的舞会上，举止怪诞的反而是平日衣冠楚楚的男人们。（罗兰还是好美🤤）
惊悚个毛线，与其说这是一个见鬼或者通灵的故事，不如说这就是一部100%抗议父权社会压迫残害女性的故事。影片一开头，女主家吃饭的氛围就像刚参加过葬礼的模样，死气沉沉的，刻板保守的父亲统领着整个家庭，饭桌文化说明了一切。有独立思想和反抗精神的女儿被父亲送进了所谓的疯人院，里面实际就是一个残害妇女的监狱，最后软弱的弟弟鼓起勇气把姐姐救出了黑暗的牢笼。不过我也想说，女主经常看见鬼魂，鬼魂出来溜达的也太勤了吧！这通灵跟吃白菜似的，有点儿戏了吧？当然，这个问题不影响整片的主题。影片整体氛围比较压抑，只有最后15分钟掀起了反抗的浪潮。还有我不想说梅拉尼.罗兰有多么美丽，但是她的气质真好！我给4星7.2分！
当你说出他们的罪行时，他们把你关紧单间牢房，说这个房间很有历史意义你是幸运的
