Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
中世纪的两个男人为一个女人而战，把决斗视为上帝的意志。雷老爷子多年后再次涉足古装片，史诗、宏伟的场面以及对人性、权力、欲望的探讨让影片看点十足。马达和大本的再次同框也为影片增色不少。朱迪科莫虽然是后起之秀但是演技丝毫不输影片里的任何一位，相反她把身处男权社会下地位卑微却内心刚毅女性角色演绎的淋漓尽致。
软科幻外壳下的关于生命的探讨，通过克隆人，男主像照镜子一般实现了生命中的最后一次自洽（男主演技不错，人物弧光很明显）。想疑问的是，既然剧情中的科技已经可以克隆人，那为什么不可以治愈本体的不治之症？
多半是因为我的经历和记忆
一个没有人证物证，间接证据也没有的案件，在那个年代以骑士决斗的方式来平息，这相对于几百年后的今天同样案例会算进步还是退步？
确实有权游的即视感，虽然我也没搞懂为什么会豆瓣高分[晕]除了分三个人的独立视角重复同一个故事，就最后的决斗场面比较好看，前面叙事太慢…不想套女权，也不想扯罗生门，只是单纯的觉得，即使对同一件事，大家角色不同，立场不同，感受自然会不同，物理上解释“真相只有一个”，但实际上，针对同一个真相，里面还是千差万别的，没有谁对谁错，千篇一律就太无趣了
开头真的闷，后面进入罗生门剧情以后才渐入佳境，而直到最后，决斗的那场戏才真正让人心跳不止
软科幻代表了哲学尽头
其实是精彩入胜的电影，特别是结尾，不足的是中间武打战斗太少，如果能多安排些惊心动魄的打斗或者战争场面，那本片将是经典。
基本就是科幻内核下的文艺片，对情感的细腻刻画让人为之动容，如果作为小说，算是那种初看不算惊艳，但细细品味之下让人掩卷思考良多的精品短片，全片没有什么太多的起伏，转折，以及戏剧冲突，有的是对家庭对爱人对人生的思考，格局确实不大， 但真真切切的能人每个拥有家庭情感的普通人去代入去思考，作为一部科幻片，很多人是存在刻板印象的，比如探讨家暴的《隐形人》探讨人工智能和仿生人的《机械姬》《升级》，都包含了大量动作惊悚悬疑类型元素，而这部片恰恰避开了这些，让人沉下心来，随着主角一起慢慢学会放手。
为什么阿里戴大金链子也这么性感？疑问：脑科技已然发达到连记忆与潜意识都可以移植的程度，为何纳米医学仍解决不了脑肿瘤的问题呢？即便一个人乐意从“我”这个身份里彻底退出，将自己的人生完全交托给“世另我”来完成，克隆人作为一种工具性的存在，人类就有权决定“它”的出生么？有权把它放置在预先规定好的命运路线里么？
硬着头皮看完这种公说公有理婆说婆有理两个多小时都讲不明白的老掉牙剧情电影对自己来说简直是受刑。如果有人说这是一部女权电影，那只是他一厢情愿相信女主罢了，也或者说他纯粹就是个看热闹不嫌事大的搅屎棍。
原以为影片要走刚正不阿战胜奸猾小人的路线，没想到是以伪罗生门的形式，迂回且生动地展现了那个时代男主自身的局限和女主遭受的不公，其间的矛盾冲突即便放到现世依然值得警醒，确实耐人寻思，回味无穷。
很喜欢这种强设定的概念，人为制造一个困境，再拷问人心，道德和伦理。只是故事后来没顶上去。
这片Apple TV有4k dolby vision，去年九月上映竟然票房惨败，老导演雷德利斯科特估计心里也是一片WTF。影片还原了中世纪最后一场法国国王和议会批准的“决斗”，不管是服装道具外景还是人物心理活动细节全都追求“写实”，时代和科学知识的局限以及人类这个物种的特点某种程度上被展示得淋漓尽致，有点像窦唯写的那首《高级动物》。如果你看过一些心理学书籍就会知道，记忆并不完全符合客观事实，人类会从符合自己利益美化自身动机的角度潜意识里对记忆进行重新编排，从这个角度看，女主角的回忆感觉甚至被过度美化。
我想再次重逢，那是一首生命挽歌
这电影可看可不看，但Mahershala Ali确实是当代最好的演员之一吧，他屁股还那么翘！！！
这应该是继《月球》之后最好的关于克隆人的科幻片了，虽说是科幻片，却没有炫彩夺目的特效，更多的是我与“我”之间触及灵魂的相互拷问，从小感兴趣到恐惧抵触最后坦然接受。
克隆人这个题材，其实已经没什么新鲜玩意可说了。不过本片直接越过了常见的“伦理困境”这个角度，从选择了如何平静的告别、如何与过去与自己和解这个角度。阿里的表演令人动容。冲奥重点选手无疑了。
结构上三方面对称，内容上并没有做到，主要是第二男主的爱情描述实在过于自说自话了。即便如此，依然不能说导演插旗在女权这边了，罗生门结构强调的就是对主观叙事的反思，甚至包括对女性话语权的反思。插旗的是观众，不是导演，就看观众能不能反思自己的主观叙事了。
以科幻外衣为包裹的家庭亲情片，感情线没问题，展示的未来科技也没问题，就是有点担心这种医学伦理，黑科技容易被人滥用吧？
