New York private detective Duncan "Mac" MacLain is blind but has keenly developed all his other senses. He pursues his work assisted by his faithful guide dog Friday, his butler, Alistair, and his assistant, Marty. Retired actress Norma Lawry, an old friend, comes to Mac seeking advice. Her headstrong 17-year-old step-daughter Barbara, herself a promising actress, is enamored with her leading man in a small theater production, the much older Lothario Paul Gerente. Paul, who had once been Norma's lover, has convinced Barbara that Norma actually wants Paul for herself and has only married her father Stephen for his money. At Mac's urging, Norma tried to reason with Paul, but he insists that he loves Barbara and laughs her off. Barbara is equally disdainful of her and agrees to meet Paul for dinner that night at his apartment.
Norma's husband Stephen Lawry is a scientist leaving that night on a trip to test a secret invention on which he has been working for the government and the war effort. Worried about Barbara, she uses a pretext not to accompany Stephen and goes to the apartment. When Barbara arrives, she finds Paul's dead body and thinks that Norma has killed him, even though Norma insists that he was dead when she arrived. Barbara threatens to call the police unless she leaves Stephen. Fearing that a scandal will hurt him, Norma agrees. Norma then turns to Mac, who goes to Paul's apartment with Friday and Marty, only to find the body and the rug under it missing. A man arrives to replace the rug and Mac hides in a closet, overhearing a telephone call to Norma's number from "Gabriel" to "Vera." Mac accidentally gives himself away, but with Friday's help overpowers Gabriel, who refuses to talk. Mac has Marty hide him to keep him under wraps.
Norma returns to her country home unexpectedly, which discourages an espionage ring that includes her butler, Hansen, from breaking into Stephen's safe and stealing his plans. They have killed Gerente, who was also an agent, and hidden the body. Mac arrives with Friday at Norma's house and pretends to be her curmudgeonly "Uncle Mac" who has come for a visit. His blindness lulls any suspicions Hansen might have about him. Shortly thereafter, Barbara comes home from an "emergency rehearsal", called to get her out of the house by her director, Cheli Scott, who inveigles an invitation to spend the night at the Lawry home. Unknown to Barbara and Norma, Cheli is the ringleader of the spies. Cheli ordered Paul killed because his affection for Barbara was beginning to limit his effectiveness, and she immediately suspects Mac is not what he seems.
Gabriel's wife Vera, the Lawrys' maid, is also a part of the plot. When Gabriel does not return home, Vera becomes hysterical with worry. Mac secretly asks Vera to meet him in the greenhouse, using her worry about Gabriel as a lure. She is observed by the others, however, and is killed by Hansen before she can reach Mac. The spies cut the house's telephone wires so that Mac and Norma cannot call the police, and Cheli has Mac locked up under guard. Using his blindness as a distraction, Mac overpowers his guard and releases Friday out a window with instructions to "go home and get Marty." Stephen arrives home and Cheli threatens his family if he does not give her the final step in creating his invention, which was not in the safe. Barbara finally realizes how much Norma actually cares for her. Mac tries to stall for time, but is locked in the cellar. When Hansen goes to kill him, Mac has broken the light bulb and his advantage of total darkness helps him overcome the spy. Marty and Friday return with the police. When Friday is spotted by a lookout, Mac overpowers him and is saved from being shot by another lookout by Friday. After the spies are captured, Stephen and Norma are off to Washington, D.C., with Barbara remaining behind to care for her new "Uncle Mac."
陌生人不值得信任。
很喜欢影像风格，这种强光影对立又光怪陆离的社会展现很轻易就想到银翼杀手了，而片子里展现的确实也是波兰同性恋群体在彼时所处的一个无出路的末世。
还好，很见过世面地没有把故事停在探案或者同性题材，而是真实地反映当年的波兰，不只是对少数族群的迫害，更多地是对正义公平的破坏和黑暗的阶级交易。在这样的内容取舍下，反而叙事传统都变成了优点。结尾处偷听的父亲与上级谈话，展示了黑暗时代的亲人间的某种守护，与最后的“我会找到你的”才能形成彼此的映照，是时代背景下难以完全放开手的生存之道。感情戏拍得挺稳的，不烂俗，这是有助于推进人物描写的。男二应该给摄影造型红包，影人页的照片都是些啥。亵渎电影说的不错，其实挺适合拍成10集短剧的。
古典西部片，没有黑人也没有女性，就连主角的结局也是那么的古典。
太阳神阿波罗与美少年海新瑟斯交好，被嫉妒的西风之神杰佛瑞斯使坏，导致阿波罗误杀海新瑟斯，血落的草丛开出紫花，阿波罗以逝者名字称呼，自此“风信子”被认为是“嫉妒”，又有“永远的怀念”的意思。波兰八十年代的压抑往事，被昏黄的灯照长了，充满上层俯瞰视野里不怀好意的猎奇与嘲弄，说的是性向的打压，未尝不是永远过火的权欲狂欢。最惨痛的不是人无法自在选择爱，而是同类相残起来，可以比什么都狠，但所图的，不过是扭曲年月里的一块牌坊。
恐同即深柜大概是颠扑不破的永恒真理。看电影学历史。感谢导演搞了个开放式结尾。还有希望。
剧本很扎实，技巧很专业，传统故事片，可以开发一个长剧了。
“快逃，我会找到你的”这不是结局，这是另一个开始。
男主留个小胡子太有味儿了。
“警”与“匪”，“直”与“弯”，两个对立的世界相互吸引的故事总是能引人入胜。
就着悬疑破案还有时代的大背景，讲一个“凄美”的爱情故事，还挺好嗑的
风信子的花语看似是“蓝色忧郁”其实是“伤感悔恨”，其实是“纯洁挚爱”，其实是“燃生命之火，求真实人生”，就像这部电影……
又是一个沉重压抑的故事。剧本很丰满，可看性蛮高。
Netflix. 越看越上瘾的节奏，Robert 和 Arek 小哥确实好磕“run, run away" "together?"
7.5，做人不能什么都害怕，尤其不能害怕自由..……
原来是这么新的一部片子，而且故事背景也源自真实的波兰社会。话说男主的警察女友的面相好像中国人。
当然，深感自己缺乏自由的你瓣被迫害妄想症中产同志们面对这一块意识形态杂粮煎饼，还是吃的津津有味。
卧底和大学生，与其说是被吸引更进一步该是认清内心深处的自己，他发现爱上了对方却无法救他以至于赔上了自己的前途。男主的眼睛特别漂亮迷人
挺惊讶的但也很压抑的片子，波兰人民是见不得自己的同胞幸福，好讽刺，纵使欺骗了所有人，但没有欺骗你自己，这个世界有时候真的很魔幻
如果你是不喜歡黑暗抑鬱題材的人，這部電影可能就不適合你看了，因為影片的氛圍和劇情讓人看完內心衝擊會有點深，感覺心情都變得低沉了。
