This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.
I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).
Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).
四平八稳。看到两女深爱一男就觉得他不配，dbq
拍得太直白了，禁不起咂摸，残酷的生存法则适用于个人命运和整个人类社会
但看不懂人生
一切有为法 有如梦幻泡影 如梦亦如幻 如露亦如电 当作如是观 8.5
commencer à vivre 这出人生戏剧讽刺感有 八成是因为巴尔扎克原著。。但是这个旁白就整得很像有声小说谁懂，，Vincent好可爱。。。（（就是说这种文艺比电影比沙丘要难懂诶。。好多生词！
中规中矩吧，小说原著里那些枝节但很重要的剧情与人物都砍掉了，故事变得紧凑，但这样一个巴黎梦碎的故事也挺普通的。
一切消费主义在未来看来都是幼稚的。到底是一个土豆值钱还是把这个土豆送到你手上的人力值钱？
【Film français 330】 Je pense à ceux qui doivent en eux trouver quelque chose après le désenchantement.
还行还行剧情不错很值得观看也很值得向别人推荐
我就担心他儿子独自走出不到五里，被人抢个精光，打个半残。
竟然是billy the kid 的后传电影。《神弃之地》是接过了《赴汤蹈火》新西部片的棒，那这部就是老西部片复兴啦！
对我来说也是法大革命时期的风情片吧，不过不太喜欢临近幻灭时那个超现实的镜头，实在不着调
百年前的评论、炒作、诋毁等各种手段从内核与当下无异。
没看过原著，但电影宛如一部带画面的有声小说，只听旁白就能知道故事惹。
当赤身裸体跳入清澈的湖水里时，解脱所有束缚，在自由里游荡。
一部古典而强有力的影视作品，它在保证了影视化改编的观赏性的同时也没有完全失去作为一部文学巨著的顽强的生命力，很有欧洲古典主义的气质
解说//软饭男靠富婆奋斗的一生，居然不是老电影，价值观很倒胃口；男主靠傍文青老夫人来到巴黎，结果老夫人自顾不暇嫌他丢人一脚踹开；随后男主便像退婚流的萧炎一样发愤图强迎娶白穷美走上人生巅峰（小报）成功完成打脸剧情，在最璀璨的时刻，贵族戏耍他，小报倒闭了，女友死去了，穷小子终究是幻灭
多少个这样的心灵，
看完电影打开豆瓣，忽地只觉得讽刺啊，豆瓣一部部热门或冷门新片，沸沸扬扬的评论们，不知道有多少是花钱买的，多少是关系户，多少是真性情，多少是凹人设，又有多少是崇拜权重、跟风的
