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.
太美了女主Hollywood也超好看养眼快冲
人生不过大梦一场空，但有些人注定是夜空中最亮的星。
除了长了点都挺好的 电影看多了就喜欢看看轻松的
7分-不单只是喜剧故事，墨西哥移民成为了这部改编电影的内核。底层工作的外乡人与好莱坞大明星之间产生感情本来就有些天荒夜谭，但是男主的演绎又让故事变得质朴，贴近现实。值得一看，满是积极味道的电影。
从披头士到山口百惠，从Stand By Me到Que Sera Sera，还原了很多大家怀念的香港风貌和时代精神。
4、提携后辈？
假戏真做的老套剧情拍的还是很能让人看下去就很不错了
好久没看这种轻松可爱的爆米花电影了 不错 三星半
说真的，不能拍的话，还不如不拍。
没看院线版，感觉电视剧版剪辑得还算舒服，除了中间和阿ben的戏份？实在是有点莫名其妙，葬礼戏也是败笔，其他都还可以吧。电影三星，多一星是给“香港的女儿——梅艳芳”。真的很久没看到这样港味十足的电影了，很感慨。
評分大概率是因為粉絲情懷，兩個小時是講不好梅姐一生的故事的，的電影也的確讓我動容了。梅姐就是上天降臨香港的天使，是天上的星星，妳永遠活在我們心中！從電影中場一直哭到最後的舊照回放，哭到頭疼。苦命的她用了一生為大家帶來歡樂與正能量。另外，Leslie選角怎麼回事？跟張國榮氣質差太遠了…很期待最後的告別演唱會拍的如何，場景的確很還原，但是太短了，演唱會的震撼沒有展現出來。
其实平平无奇，倒不如制作一部纪录片。与那段岁月隔得太短，很多东西还是谈不了。最令我动容的还是梅姑最后那段日子，之前我一直想着这部电影怎么能没有似水流年和夕阳之歌呢，没想到似水流年在里面的确被提到了，梅姑演唱夕阳之歌的片段，更是让我起鸡皮疙瘩，那应该是最出彩的一段，即使有很多情感因素是源于电影之外的。最后还是很感谢仍有那么一群人没有忘记梅艳芳，不管它是不是一部商业片。7分吧。
原來1982的香港紡織工人的工資就有一千二了
能不能禁止一下非正常老死去世三十年以内的天皇巨星拍传记电影……形象太深入人心，怎么选角都很难。王丹妮的梅艳芳太漂亮，气场不行，少了江湖气，走在夜场里太像个女白领。梅艳芳是个没有少女期的女人。而我即便不算荣迷，看到这样的张国荣也想打……那个时候的香港娱乐圈闪闪金光没有拍出来。黑社会纷争一笔带过，倒也是可以理解。最打动人的，还是那些真人影像。2003年就这样在眼前，无法不哭。香港精神，夕阳之歌。
能看，有些浮于表面的传记感，但梅艳芳真的不可复制，演不出来啊
哈哈哈 挺好啊 没有屎尿屁的轻喜剧 有几段确实搞笑 以至于妈妈去世那里总觉得会突然反转 发现是误会什么的 悼词的地方骗我眼泪 和大明星年轻但耀眼的生命形成鲜明对比 结尾三人联起手来对付渣男可太爽了 哈哈哈 见人说人话见鬼说鬼话的水平可不是一般的高 几条线都挺好的 主线和支线平衡地很好 既点出了想表达的内容 又没有喧宾夺主 最后还带出了男主角的后续爱情 水到渠成 啊 泊车小哥和大明星成了朋友的结局真好 不落俗套 整个看起来很舒服 对墨西哥的文化也有了进一步的了解 真不错
Just my type of movie, and definitely my type of wink.
本来没抱期望，没想到还挺感人，特别是那场葬礼
劇情是真的蠻老套的。好在有一些或溫馨或好笑的細節有加到分。比如第一次去男生家，每一個人笑臉的慢鏡頭；還有兩個後來同居的跟拍狗仔😆
本来没有这么好，结尾和手撕渣男实在是太好了。girls help girls，yyds！女主演一开始让我觉得很塑料，到后面反而是很有质感，不作怪是真的很漂亮。
