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.
剧本和表演都没问题，不自然的地方是看的过程中一直觉得这应该是发生在日本的故事，镜头语言还是太是枝太日式了，虽然是东亚近邻，总觉得韩国人面对这种事不会处理得像日本人那样温和😢IU在我认知里一直是个很美丽的偶像歌手，没想到演技意外的踏实。裴女士老刑警了，余裕十足，不如干脆搞个跟李珠英的双女主探案剧，剧本让《秘密森林》的李秀妍来写就好～
是枝裕和过于天真和温柔，试图延续《小偷家族》的童话：在不完美的背德者之中寻找人性的真善美，用没有血缘关系边缘人相互取暖的余烬温暖观众。这一次，掮客、妓女、杀人犯和孤儿组成的小家庭，美则美矣，但着实无法洗刷浪漫化苦难的嫌疑，特别是结尾，每个角色都做出完美正义地抉择，圆满却难以服众。“谢谢你降生于这个世界”的宣言，不是宽慰，更是让作者留下了他对性别政治和堕胎议题微妙的态度。IU很美，摩天轮戏份可能是年度最浪漫场景之一。
“感谢你的诞生”这句话的意义要高于这整部影片吧。
这部电影有一种奉俊昊说，是枝裕和我的团队借你用用，你试试看整部片子出来，但是你得让我修改你的剧本的感觉。
想知道如果凱奇看完劇本以後不同意出演，導演會怎麼辦
3，标题翻得文绉绉的，直接用『人贩子』不是更好？
凯奇想通过这部电影告诉大家债还完了，但是我感觉他还欠了100万美金
这部电影比小偷家族探讨更多的则是女性议题，从女性生育到社会眼光下的男女平等，它脱离了传统眼光下素英作为母亲需要展现的那种母爱，而是更多地去描绘社会底层妓女这个身份给她带来的矛盾与纠结。后半段的泪点很多，打动我的并不是那些温馨和情感，而是通过素英的嘴所呼喊出来的女性渴望被尊重、渴望拥有自由处置自己身体的权利。
早期的是枝裕和更多还是偏重东方家庭的慢慢悠长，这几年导演的作品反而更多偏重于社会性议题，特别是小偷家族后更甚。
关灯的那场戏，可以说是斯派克·琼斯的「Her」之后，最触动我的「黑场」了。真正的爱，真正的情感，都是无法用眼睛看到只能用内心去感受的。这也是为什么摩天轮上的那场戏，是枝裕和不让我们看她的眼睛。其实导演挡住的不是素英的眼睛，而是我们的眼睛，挡住那双眼睛的，也不是东洙的手，而是我们的评判。我们的评判挡住了我们的眼睛。我们需要像在摩天轮的顶端一样，从更高的视角，用心灵去看世界，去感受光亮，成为光亮，成为滴落在她手心净化人的雨，成为片尾潮起潮落始终包容人的海，而不是躲在阴暗角落一直图谋诛人心的刀。
推荐四十多五十岁的过气男明星像黄晓明什么的都看看这个，考虑下买版权翻拍的事情，说不定就能像电影结尾一样再度翻红。
2.5；从《无人知晓》的生而不养到如今以《小偷家族》模式再造一个“无血缘关系的大家庭”（这个模式用得过于顺手而终究流于俗腻煽情鸡汤），看得出是枝裕和对某些社会议题的执著探索，但创作精力真的肉眼可见式下跌——以往的批判力度缺席，代之以糖水和温情包裹起来的梦幻童话，让人物脱离现实情境念诵一些过分美丽的台词简直是对早期作品的某种背叛，人与人之间联结的建立或打破怎会如此顺畅平滑，尤其关于堕胎那句发言让人震惊——几乎让人怀疑拍摄本片到底出于何种立场。摩天轮伸手挡泪全片最佳。
低配版《小偷家族》，奉俊昊打卡上班，姜栋元“忠武路小生”还有很长一段路要走，IU像个AI,说她是戛纳影后有力争夺者真是辱唯了
尼古拉斯大叔怎么着也是给我的少年时期提供了很多精彩的动作片回忆，《变脸》《石破天惊》《空中监狱》等等，部部都很好。后来长大了，也开始和他渐行渐远了。这部电影，更让人觉得是一场回忆杀，遗憾偶像的沉沦，也感慨当年的经典。至少这20年，这部电影，算是排第一的了吧，加油偶像！
停留在车窗上的花儿 小心翼翼能捏住 甩甩手也能把它撵走 但孩子却是一辈子的牵挂。素英在【生下来送出去】还是【存在就毁掉】哪个罪恶感更重的伦理线徘徊 得不出答案 东洙被问到【更远是哪里】也同样答不上来 也许一起洗车时开个窗大家都湿透了是快乐 窝在小镜头前合照一张留念是快乐 也许游乐场狂欢一下小游戏是快乐——也许只是大家凑在一起说说话一起笑笑就是快乐 本就这么简单不是吗？所以呀 摩天轮上用手挡在你面前 不是想给你打马赛克 因为你给了我太多可以原谅妈妈的理由 我只是简单的不想看到你哭 只愿 全天下的人 都能因为出生而得到感谢。（PS裴斗娜的侧脸好好看。IU也意外演得不错！）
这样的组合，这样的成效，确实给人草台班子的感觉。
太——日了，韩国演员和日本电影真的不太兼容，也就裴斗娜这种有“去国别感”的演员才能两头适应了
片子里的亲情啊，友情啊其实发展都挺老套的，给片子加分绝对算不上，好在也没多减分。好玩的是凯奇对自己演艺生涯的调侃和致敬等等，联系现实会让人忍俊不禁，越了解凯奇劲儿越大。看凯奇叔这么拼，抱拳了，但真的不负当年勇了，这片明显佩德罗帕斯卡的表演更好。
75cannes首映/中庸的故事，与我相悖的生养观，一无是处的女演员，是枝裕和的复杂与细腻全都丢失了，很多设计（eg摩天轮的运用、火车灯光）太平平无奇，刁亦男都比他有创意，导演老啦。另，还是认为男导演请慎重触碰女性题材（滨口龙介除外）。
