剧情介绍

  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."

    好久好久好久没有看电影了,迎接2022,yf上没有搜到想看的,就随便看个应景的吧。其实有人愿意拍一个纯粹迎接新年的电影也不错,围绕酒店这个单一场景,当然少年组还有溜冰场、校园表白(当着男女两个阵营表白,还真的蛮中二又热血的)。15年在身边的好朋友要结婚了,始终不越过那条线,电梯里相拥继续做朋友也可以。老太太收到戒指那个激动的神情,也不错。怎么说呢,有童话故事,也有寻常人间。

    民族志纪录片上放的,导演和制片人来了现场。踢皮球的小男孩影射了女主的哥哥(发高烧去世的儿子),第一幕出现在烧纸钱的时候,哥哥出现,以及最后一幕,父母去世时,家人团聚,时空交织。 影片既显沉重,又想略带温暖地收尾。感觉导演想表达的太多了。中间蓝色窗帘的那一幕和结尾躺在水里的那个……迷惑?不如躺水里直接结束了……

    来处和归途之间,父母是我们和死亡隔着的最后一道屏障。老家有个形容,说老人会一天天的熟了。这是一种散发着衰老和腐朽的熟,无力阻止的逼近终点的过程,我们能做的只有被动接受、陪伴照顾和等待。

    “我去过那个湖边,跟你妻子聊了很多。你妻子说啊,说你还像个小孩子一样,她离不开。所以我给你妻子提了个建议,余下的人生我带着你生活,让你长大成人,等下辈子一定把你送回去。然后你妻子给了我回复——雪,如果今年最后一天下雪就是答应我了。”原来真的会有人冒着鹅毛大雪,带着承诺向你走来。

    在这个经济利益至上,人人都尽可能多的关注经济生活的时代,我们对内心世界的关注越来越少,或者说可以理解一种对内心世界的逃避。

    各种野蛮女友的影子以及熟悉的套路,各种滤镜驾轻就熟,跨年片不用过多追求逻辑,团团圆圆开开心心就够了

  • 曼美 1小时前 :

    翻拍真爱至上,把场景限定在一家大型酒店里。片子可能只值两星,但是林允儿的出场非常惊艳,加一星。

  • 诸葛颖初 0小时前 :

    5。推进剧情的拍摄手法还有点生硬,但细节比较到位;老演员把逐渐丧志尊严的老年生活演得很真实,青年演员演技还需打磨;导演的艺术加工有点意思,女主去老宅寻父母的那段,看着父母渐行渐远却只能保持距离,耐人寻味;看完在感慨,人到三十肯定会越来越孤独吧,闺蜜和我不再是“我们”,自己的感情生活一塌糊涂,父母老去...生活也不竟是苦味吧,希望我人到三十还能保持乐观主义。

  • 锦昭 1小时前 :

    尤奈斯库的这部戏剧涵盖了很多政治和哲学性。法西斯的暴虐对尤奈斯库所在的国家影响颇深,这也是他在戏剧中所表现的,一个国家的纳粹化进程,对国家的人民和国家本身来说就是巨大的混乱。在那样的环境里,当所有人都说一件事情是对的,而就那么一个人说那件事情是错误的,这是需要极其强大的心理素质

    (伪)长镜头很惊艳,故事很无语。把大家叫出来,就是为了这点事啊。

    见识到了开场十二分钟的长镜头,二十年弹指一挥间,导演在时间的处理上非常好。又一个人被时间改变的故事,最后的每一刀都是救赎。
