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.
还阔以，挺有意思的，离谱的计划只能靠着一股侥幸的劲儿催着走。
中规中矩的叙事，没有一丝丝的惊心，刚合格！
人类最成功的发明，是幽默。这句还蛮有意思，回味了很久。家用机器人们为了更好的服务人类想了各种方式，拟人，幽默，学习，在人类出现危险时挺身而出。反观人类，出现问题各自有各自的立场和选择，对比下来更为可笑。巨型漏洞，更像是片尾机器人操作中的那一失误，才拯救了这个社会。黑色幽默。
能明白导演为什么要拍/编剧为什么要写这个故事，但是效果真的好一般啊……已经有一个很一般的预期了但还是不太行，ian fleming也救不了的程度。finals还专门来看的意义只有来qna的科林叔🥺
有一种热内随便拍拍的感觉。把幽默感抬上神坛也太逗了。喜欢电影的色彩和未来想象。
虽然只是一间房子，特效上也没有大手笔的渲染，却将高质量生活下的苦恼描绘的淋漓尽致
西特工男女通杀
把可飞行的高清摄像头当蚊子给拍了。笑点：她用镊子修眉毛结果扯出了一根线，高级跑车全速前进结果玻璃没撞开被一只狗给报废了，看起来最瘦弱的詹妮弗被控制了，结果一家人都阻止不了她的步伐。这个给自己套上被冻住的衣服，是用土办法对抗高科技吗？打败了机器人被告知新病毒来了玩个梗，最后，好好做个人吧。
中规中矩。两位男主对Jean心生情愫这种桥段过于戏剧化了些（尤其对一部根据历史真实事件改编且角色沿用原型人物原名的电影来讲，没必要）间接弱化了Jean对于行动成功的意义，电影对这个人物的刻画挺失败的，有点跑偏。达西*2的组合身着制服实在很有魅力，客串卡司亮眼。
感情戏份着实冗余而无效。咱就是说以后拍这种类型的电影能不能搞个“用100分钟讲一个故事谁最好谁上”这种限时命题拍片比赛啊（认真开玩笑）……
网飞搞这种碎剪爽片挺在行的，年初的慕尼黑也好看（虽然性质不一样但是）…有些情节挺莫名其妙的，但是西班牙那位两头通吃的大使我直接笑出声
典型的二战神剧。“进攻西西里岛是一场伟大的胜利，是抗击希特勒的决定性时刻。”好家伙，幸亏苏联灭亡了，又做了美国的狗，再怎么往自己脸上抹粉都无所谓了。
后面跳着看的……感觉没什么内容，即使跳着看也完全不影响后面的内容……
这个三角恋太狗血了，严重影响观感，为什么不能规规矩矩拍部正剧。007的作者Ian Fleming露了几面，人人都在写小说，哈，如果你注意到了，会会心一笑
太刻板陳舊的科幻概念了，諷刺的淺薄就難以幽默
蜻蜓点水 突兀结尾 家庭爆米花 有点浪费时间
感觉纪录片可能会更有意思……
一个天方夜谭式的谍战骗局，却纠缠于三角恋、婚外情，片中人物毫无表现力，过程也不够惊心动魄，挺乏味的。
不知道怎么说，有舞台剧的形式，但看起来又好像闹剧。
不算最后的转折，预告片几乎就把故事讲完了。可以说是回归了和马克卡罗合作时的那种怪异的幻想风格，因此也没有了他后来那些更大众的片子里古灵精怪的讨人爱的角色，也没有了真正年轻时那种让人感觉惊奇的想象力，虽然看似不错，但也不太出众。总的来说，如果喜欢这口，我还是不想人云亦云，法式幽默，人类的意义以及AI的威胁，这些还是很有趣的，毕竟除了看热内，也很难在别家看到这么奇特的风格。
