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.
就中规中矩吧……之前剧版就还可以，但可惜我没坚持看完，就看不下去了。到了电影版，甚至还没剧版高级，到了后面明明剧情一再高能，也看不进去……就……可能我跟这片没缘分。
雷佳音总那么邋遢，李现声音有点娘，电影不错，两小时也不觉得漫长。
改编很大，跟小说完全不一样。但故事还挺好，剧情迭起紧凑，特效也很好。是一部很出色的商业片。
有点子意思，这种谜题可以多一点，中国好玩的玩意儿这么多。
稳于剧本，毁于剪辑，最该加鸡腿的是道具美术组。贵啊！
可能灰头土脸的镜头多，许愿就总让人想到《刺杀小说家》的关宁，再加上解析古董时瓷器上的炫酷特效，虚虚实实，味就凑一起了。更喜欢原著里药不然和许愿那种亦敌亦友、猫抓老鼠的双雄关系，就很无间道。这个改编把老朝奉变成了药来，药不然被放低了一等，就没那么好玩了。
辛芷蕾这九十年代造型也太好看了！
最后真佛头显露出来的场景还是比较震撼的。电影总体的节奏不行，还没有同主演的「刺杀小说家」给我的观影体验好。葛大爷演的那个角色下线强行煽情很尴尬，李现的台词有点虚，辛芷蕾蛮不错的。
可以一看，没有原著过瘾，可能是篇幅有限，原著亲王细节控，电影就比较通俗了。
推理了一圈，最后不还是把真佛头送出去了嘛？！
看过原著也完全没有用，这基本上除了玉佛头，其他都是重写的。但特效和演员都还不错，希望有系列续集，但故事好好写。

看过剧集版再看这部电影，普通浓缩版吧，并无新意。
挥之不去的一种“要古不现”感，时代设定和呈现出来的出入过大，毫无代入感。说它像寻宝综艺，但现在的寻宝综艺也比它做得更像那个意思吧？

雷佳音他们从他爸房间离开的时候为啥不把那堆摩斯密码给弄乱？
其他的不说了，李现在这一堆戏骨里是真得拉。
剧情一般，不懂古玩古董~演员都挺喜欢~现男友是反派角色
李现这个药不然比不上乔振宇也就罢撩 连魏晨都不如 但是作为淑芬更让我接受无能的是剧本乱改 原著时间线是很严谨的 许一城和付贵兄弟相称 许和平高低要叫声叔 许愿得叫大爷的人物 饶是葛大爷是真大爷也还是不对 大爷不是大爷 佛头也就不是佛头了 这一锤子砸了三次佛头 谁能想到电影版是最拉跨的呢。
雷佳音的本事没老爸教难道还是胎里带来的？最后砸佛头的手法也太糙了点吧！| 根据马伯庸同名小说改编
