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).
渐入佳境，Sunday 那段简直是百老汇春晚！
太爱这部电影了，加菲我是夸累了。
普普通通。La La land的特点从来都不是故事。
《鬼灭之刃 灶门炭治郎 立志篇》Ep22-26，炭治郎和善逸、伊之助疗伤修炼的轻松故事，下一站：无限列车
故事，歌曲，表演都不錯，但舞台音樂劇與電影的那種違和感從頭持續到尾
靠！终于见到几大柱了！！！结尾看得我全身发麻，赶紧出第二季吧！！！

又焦虑又治愈，先入为主地认为凡妮莎还是适合歌舞片。
如果你喜欢broadway音乐剧，或者了解Jonathan Larson本人，或许会喜欢本片。但是作为不看音乐剧的人，这片子最大的问题就是太不像电影，导演太自我陶醉于致敬和缅怀，而没能讲好故事，两个时空（tick tick…boom音乐剧时空，和回忆中创作superbia的时空）观感上撕裂太严重，用来填充歌曲的画面也不够紧凑和好看，甚至歌曲都没能好听到让人记得几首。看完只能让人觉得男主角是another struggling artist in New York，纽约有太多太多这样的人了。PS，加菲演的没问题，歌喉也不错，但是现在吹的那么凶的拿奥斯卡男主肯定是没希望的。
EP.6-10 《浅草篇》
本歌舞片爱好者这几年看的音乐传记电影踩雷率50%以上，这片子怎么能够无聊成这个样子啊？！震惊到！！已经到了看了不到一半就不想记得它的地步。音乐不怎么好听，没有一首能打动我的；故事线杂乱无趣，主角絮絮叨叨惹人烦，配角则根本没存在感；连我这么喜欢的加菲在里面也显得面目可憎起来了，什么鬼！！懒得评了，就当我没看过吧……
九柱第一次集合。
开头平平无奇，越到后面越引人入胜（大概是因为悲剧倾向）喜欢双女主和声那段，但是讲真音乐性并没有觉得比歌舞青春之类的高多少，但是加菲和瓦内莎很可以，看到好久不出现在大银幕的俩人老了，内心感慨的同时又残念他俩不是银幕cp非要zzzq的安插一个黑人女，但是又转念一想，始终红不起来的两人有戏演就很好了🥲

比起前一部蜘蛛山的开挂，这一部还是比较实际的
到了一定年龄，你就不再是端着餐盘的作家，而是一个有写作爱好的服务员。Tick，Tick...BOOM！个人觉得不及《爱乐之城》，情感的撕扯和卖惨的剧情，实在比不过人生真实的无奈。
Artists are assholes... 结构和音乐都很喜欢，卡司也棒，加菲演得太自然了，长胖了还有点萌。哈金斯太惊艳了，《歌舞青春》这都多少年了，还这么光彩夺目，只要她出现在镜头里我就移不开眼睛，开口就是当年的金嗓子，绝了。
Tick, tick, for love or fear? 原来rent的原点是这样的。
What can you do?
