Novelist Joseph Shearing specialized in using real cases which took place in Victorian England, altering them for fictional purposes. MOSS ROSE in 1947 was the first film to be made from his novels, then in 1948 two of his works were adapted for the screen, this film and THE MARK OF CAIN. The movie stars Todd as a recently widowed missionary returning to her home in England from Jamaica. During the voyage, she meets Milland, a charming though dangerous rascal who is wanted by police in connection with some unsavory dealings. Milland contracts malaria while onboard the ship and Todd nurses him back to health. In London, Todd settles into her home, taking in boarders to make ends meet. Milland arrives, moves in, and proclaims his love for her. Todd is thrilled, but it seems rather obvious that Milland is only toying with her. Milland finds some letters written to her by her friend, Fitzgerald, in which Fitzgerald reveals some of her sexual indiscretions. Since Fitzgerald is now married to the wealthy Huntley, Milland believes he can use the letters to blackmail Fitzgerald. Todd's love for Milland is so great that she goes along with the plan. Huntley, however, learns of the scheme and also uncovers details of Milland's shady past. Fearing for her lover's safety, Todd poisons Huntley, then remains silent when Fitzgerald is arrested for the murder. Milland has by now genuinely fallen in love with Todd and the two make plans to leave England. Before they can depart, one of Milland's former lovers shows up and Todd, in a jealous rage, kills Milland, then turns herself into the police.
This is an intriguing film, although a little on the talky side. The performances are excellent throughout, with Milland shining as the cad, the type of role in which he excelled. Though he spent most of his time making films in the US, he occasionally returned to his native England for a production and this was his first British film since FRENCH WITHOUT TEARS in 1939. Director Allen was also an Englishman who chose to work in the US, this being his first directorial effort in his homeland. This was the fourth and last time Milland and Allen would work together, their pairing having begun in 1944 with the wonderfully eerie THE UNINVITED.
是好看的啊！节奏比好莱坞电影慢，但是很有写实风格。剧情有点厉害
男主死掉，女主逃跑可能会更好看些。还有IT男身体素质没这么强的。
我挺喜欢这类片子，但是这个片子看的着急。
什么都想表现、各种政治正确~ 最后搅和成一锅粥
这片告诉我们不要疲劳驾驶，你看就滑出去了。。还有一定要系安全带，你看女的直接被甩出去，当场身亡。 莫名其妙的一场追逐谋杀戏，光论这场不知名的追逐戏还是挺好看的，但就是到最后都不知道为什么，，隐隐约约，模棱两可，追了个寂寞。男主好强，咋弄都不会死，断断续续一路上身中了好几枪都能徒手暴打别人。。。因为车祸误入一场政治密谋，被追杀，求救大使馆，结果大使馆反水也是一伙的，最后各种通关，解救小男孩成为英雄。。 希腊雅典虽然穷，但是城市和乡村景色都很美。就是被这片拍的不敢去国外了。。在陌生异国遇上政治事件太恐怖。。
最后这个结尾是认真的吗？本可以是个很牛的故事，结果弄得莫名其妙的
演员们真的演得都蛮好的，阵容挺好，还有坂本龙一，但是就是不知道为了个啥…
虽然让万恶的中文吸睛片名给骗了，但其实还是挺有意思的片子。
在一个网站“动作片”分类中随便选中了这个，前面看了十来分钟都没看到任何动作元素，更像是爱情文艺片，退出播放后认真看了介绍才知道高潮即将开始。动作片肯定算不上，但是悬疑片还是毫无疑问的，尤其是男主深处穷乡僻壤语言几乎是完全不通的情况下被人追杀，不由得不让你跟主角一起懵逼，为什么他会被追杀？挺不错的
男主角的身手堪比年轻时的成龙
节奏过于缓慢，主角就是nb呗，怎么都死不了，最后一跃还来个伟光正。略无聊
服气，如今解决别的国家政治波动都不用CIA了，随便来一个疲劳驾驶出车祸的美国游客就能解决。
什么都想表现、各种政治正确~ 最后搅和成一锅粥
还可以吧，不带任何期待全程能跟住，个体命运被卷入一场更大格局中的无力感。能看到一些有趣的反类型元素，比如抢摩托没抢成功，什么阴谋不过就是黑帮厮杀。但整个故事都还在传统类型下进行，男主是怎么身上中枪还和没事一样的，他们拍中枪就是比谁喊得声音大，好家伙！
坎妹打了个酱油 剧情还算可以 有点故弄玄虚
冗长的瘸跑，单调的摄影，过家家的打斗，莫名的剧情
异国旅游出车祸，妻子去世丈夫被追杀误打误撞破获绑架案
男主人公挣脱所谓运动又被宿命般地拉回来，看到最后我觉得他几乎已经在用生命与政治事件割席；镜头给到酒店的时候，真的很伤感，人之渺小，江流入海
没有任何预期的前提下看，有点被惊艳到了！视听语言纯熟，华盛顿在这个片子的演技完爆信条...内心戏和氛围感铺的相当好，看的时候觉得配乐有东西啊，看完一查是坂本龙一我擦...遗憾的是停车楼那一跳彻底破坏了整个片子的气质…好奇希腊自从火山灰之后都经历了什么，导演把希腊乡村野外和城市里的建筑空间都利用的很好，只是看完彻底不敢去希腊旅游了…
儿子的演技还是有待提高。另外主角光环太强大了吧。
