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.
钱真是个好东西。相比于剧情，这些星其实是给那些老戏骨的
其实，挺好看的。有些程序太不正确了哈哈哈，但是让大鳄内部瓦解，很有东西。差不多也是起楼让政府搁置公屋李黄瓜式人物和儿子叫曾志威的装腔作势政客wow再严格点6.8其实绝对能有的，不解。
港片真是夕阳西下了，这种片子真是烂的没底线了。。。
有钱有办法，没钱基本法。太过理想主义的洗脑片，现实中，廖启智的代表的资本阶层怎么可能因为女儿的去世和权贵阶层决裂的。
法律题材居然拍的如此弱智，这个题材在国内还是吃不开……
把一个可以向多方面发展的电影拍成了主旋律，把智叔遗作变成了网大，只能说导演垃圾！
上次看到章子怡说，成为妈妈后会很怕死，因为总是担心孩子。
勉勉强强勉勉强强的，能看完，中半段好一点点，前后都差两口气，整体制作，主创，演员都太淡了
剧情一般，悬疑的推理、法庭戏的对决都是浅尝辄止，不深入。香港电影，能看到一帮老戏骨对戏已经很难得了，不敢奢望太高。智叔已经不在了…哎
看完感觉蛮复杂的心情，提到鸡蛋跟高墙的对立，结果打败高墙的是团伙的内讧，以及用伪造证据的手法。程序非正义的正义是不是正义？
表演方面无可挑剔，片子节奏也很紧凑，不过对最后的主题升华存疑，所谓法律面前人人平等的社会，感觉好像是最后正义战胜了权势，但实际上没有廖启智背后发力，收买黑警作证，这个案子是不可能反转的，而且方中信获取DNA的方式也太粗糙，不但有可能碰不上凶手刚好喝咖啡，而且方中信自己的指纹不也在咖啡杯上么？作为一个普通人，真要遇到顶罪的事情，首先遇不到这么坚持正义的律师，其次还要凶手不毁掉死者的手机电脑，普通人完全没可能战胜有钱人的，故而片子宣扬的法律面前人人平等根本站不住脚，影片后半段只是李毅峰在看守所中的幻想罢了。
最终正义还不是靠着女孩父亲的背景实现的 只能说凶手惹了不该惹的对手
剧情拍的太一般了，也就是看看戏骨们的表演。
四、夜店真的是约炮的地方。
不算太爽，也算可以。
设定挺有迫感的案件，但却演绎的没有一丝压力，这种正义来得蛮轻松自在的感觉很不爽啊
如果死去的女孩不是富豪家的孩子，这场审判可能就没有转折了。
首先观影过程中，有两处感觉断层的厉害，跳跃性很强，不是很合理。故事是个简单的故事，逻辑性也正常，没有出彩的地方。最后方中信的一段独白还有点说法，其他就没啥了。人物方面，表演以及人物设定都不够丰满，尤其小助理演的有些尴尬，容易出戏。
只能这么多了，就是不太明白，方中信这么正义，前面只为了钱是在演戏给谁看？
我觉得剧情饱满，主题鲜明老戏骨演技爆棚，看的很爽可以了。不过年轻演员确实差一大截。
