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.
朱迪演的太好了，大量的面部特写镜头，表现的非常有张力，题材很好，很自然，就是剧本薄弱的太靠演员支撑了
以小见大，一人可见一个疗养院，一个疗养院可见一个国家。
第一次看有关新冠相关的影片，是帮助还是求救？放大到对整个医疗系统对体制对个人思想的疑惑
女主角不错，下面评论说得好，接受一下迂回的主旋律。
有那么一下子心情又回到了去年晚上躲被窝里边看新闻边哭的时候，好无助啊
镜头打一开始就很压抑，节奏有种刻意的凌乱。叙事的时间线很简单，推进很快，高潮在一瞬间爆发，结尾像是一种呐喊。五星是因为电影讲出了一种真实。总有阳光照不到的地方，但同样需要被人看到。
动机一直模糊不清，最后的发问更是无力，这又不是Killing Eve，真人真事改得太抓马了。
别国拍的东西在反思不足，我国拍的东西企图叫观众感恩戴德。永远讨厌宏大叙事，因为“人”会被忽略。永远可以对Jodie Comer的演技有信心，即使没有脸部出镜只有声音的那段，角色满满的焦虑都从屏幕里溢出来。但最后出走的情节真的有些跳脱。
有那么一下子心情又回到了去年晚上躲被窝里边看新闻边哭的时候，好无助啊
以小见大，一人可见一个疗养院，一个疗养院可见一个国家。
这个是疫情以来第一部歪果仁有戴口罩的影视作品，这觉悟来来来，莎拉你会长命百岁的。
这真的好棒，Jodie真的能演，中间她崩溃落泪我也忍不住跟着哭出来，后面在警车里对着镜头愤怒质问也是冲出屏幕的情绪，外加怼着脸还不时晃动的手持镜头，太有代入感了，面对人类历史上最严重的疫情，一个普通人是有多么无助
这是较为现实的疫情下的故事 通过护工的角度来诠释疫情下的无奈 绝望和深深的无力感 光影镜头都蛮好的 个人很喜欢疗养院里面那昏暗的长走廊 演技也真的很赞 中间长达二十分钟的长镜头可以封神 当疫情袭来 每个人的紧张 疲惫 还有惊恐和无奈真的很真实 结尾处女主的绝望嘶吼真的令人很难不共情 当人这一小面在国家 体制 规则面前真的是蜉蝣撼树 而片尾最后女主的质问又何止只是英国 车内女主眼神中的悲凉 精疲力竭后透露的麻木 令人记忆犹新
国外已经拍片了，国内刚把云南疫情的求救消息删了…副市长说需要援助，市长出来说这个消息过时了……
人美心善的女主和早发痴呆的宅男之间也挺温柔的。还是没看完。紧跟时事。
并没有过去多久，2020就已经带上厚重的历史感，全人类不忍回首但又必须正视的历史
还说 Jodie Comer这口音学着得多难啊，刚一看，原来就是正经的利物浦人。
对比一下剧本 摄影 演技 价值观 再来探讨什么能被称为文化大国
后半小时借男女主的情感与逃离，控诉并深化政府应对疫情的不足。
不宣扬英雄主义，不过分强调正能量，而是从一个特殊人群的角度来看C19对人们的伤害。这才是疫情的正确打开方式
