Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
其实还行的，表面鬼怪实则全是人心。比好些个大牌商业片好多了4星鼓励一下
国产网大里算是不错的，但如果暗示是幻想的话就不配了
虽然套用了罗生门的内核。但是编导非常用心。很有诚意、很花心思的把各个情节巧妙的连接。摄影和配乐以及演的都不错。希望越来越多这样的国产电影
近乎柯南伯格写给自己的一篇悼词，话语的私密性包裹在影像的风格共识下，那些器官、刀口、利爪与纤支镜仅是“表演”，雅典搁浅的船舶与凋敝的楼宇中挣扎着隐秘的愁绪，那是衰老与病变下对创作和死亡的疑虑，他终于以自己为研究对象进行了一场肉体与观念的“内在”究极剖解，疼痛、感染、消化不良、吞咽困难、睡眠障碍、组织瘤变，柯南伯格毫不避违老去的现实，又通过赋予病症以现代艺术特质和政治战斗意义，使得自己和电影中逐渐觉醒的莫特森同步叠化为宗教领袖般的先驱，即关乎美学，又关乎生理，并逐渐过渡到变革——从回避器官进化机能仅维持保守秩序下的生长抑制，到蜕变为接受和拥抱身体演变解放的自主与自由，怀着那个关于家庭和伴侣的痛苦却温柔的梦，重拾作为人的切身生理感知意志，向死而生，贞德式的脸庞与泪水下，他在永恒的世界中动人瞑目。
感官刺激是表象，艺术概念是形式，政治喻言才是核心。影片前半段用一场艺术概念秀，来展现行为艺术家索尔·滕泽对身体的掌控，同时也展现了人们对掌控身体的痴迷：当身体有痛觉时，我们用抚摸捆绑抽打来寻求刺激，当身体不再有痛觉后，我们用切割器官来制造快感，折腾身体是人类通往高潮的唯一途径。后半段则是政治喻言，身体即政治，政治即控制，个体通过顺应器官来掌控身体，资本通过收割器官来掌控身体，政府通过注册器官来掌控身体，谁掌控了身体，谁就掌控了进化的定义权，三方势力看似暗流涌动，但如同行为艺术家在结尾处做出的选择一样，实际上个体始终处于主导地位。
创造了一个引人入胜的感官世界，那里充斥着对身体的迷恋，也毫不遮掩任何恐惧；独特的气氛，始终跟随手术、表演、性爱而流动。最近的想象可能是NT上演过的《弗兰肯斯坦》，，也在体会一种“舞台上演”的滋味。不依靠耸动效果炮制过度呈现的画面，而通过倚重演员魅力（谢谢选角Scott Speedman （：）、固定空间的展开，渐渐有了自己的节奏。但套上近未来的时间背景抑或任何议题感召，都无从察觉；或许不止有这么多。
善恶终有报，人心换人心。国产片能拍成这样罗生门还是不错了。
真的棒，国内电影最大的问题就是编剧地位太低，导致什么破烂玩意儿都敢改剧本，把原本好好的故事改成了垃圾，现在这种志怪类的网大反而是剧本导向，注重故事性，整个故事连贯首尾呼应，完整且细致饱满，只要不带着网大的偏见看电影，那这一部绝对胜过今年95%的国产片，虽然镜头美感还有欠缺，但是仍属于优秀
人类的未来是长肿瘤和吃垃圾…emmmmmm…
“Inner beauty”被物化的想法既醍醐灌顶又悲不自胜。
好，难得有这么好的片，剧情紧凑，扣人心弦，前面恐怖后面哲思，没有说会让人想跳过快进，剧情上让你有一种意料之外情理之中的感觉
蛮意外的，虽然演技啥的不怎么样，但故事讲的真不错，用几个人不同的视角讲述一个人性的故事，最后的彩蛋也有点意思，国产恐怖片不容易，鼓励一下
为啥柯南伯格总是「高潮铺满整片」会显得全片只剩下噱头记忆，毫无厚度可言
A / 将耳朵铺满肌肤就是“外在”修饰吗，取出脏器就是“内在”艺术吗？影片试图抵达的恰恰是：身体之为“现实”，反而在于它是一种无内外之分的超离于精神的深度/平面；要控制身体，便在于给出其空间分配的叙述。因此要用进食器引导不同器官的运动，要用腹部的拉链来标记其隧洞的入口，要把器官编目为科学合法的展示品，要把手术变成一种所谓内向“探索”……但生命的逻辑并非如此，它透过身体的在场无条件地宣示它自身，正如开头：孩童舀起泥石、啃食塑料如摆弄玩具。因此孩童不可逆的死亡标记了解剖-表演逻辑的尽头，它必然重新陷入被诸多权力所争夺的内外划界叙述。这恰恰是结尾未来圣女贞德之面容的坚定宣言：一滴泪所凝缩的身体之深度与粗粝黑白影像平面的合一——而这个镜头外的柯南伯格影像对观众的身体所镌刻的，又何尝不是如此？
网大能有这个水准完全吊打电影院那些破玩意了，里面有一些八恶人罗生门的味儿，最后的结局有点僵尸的意思。
BODY IS REALITY. LONG LIVE THE NEW ORGAN.
讲故事的人强调狐仙的凶残和强大，把听众带跑偏，将其作为一种手段，只为洗脱自己的罪孽。而村名习惯了靠别人的救济过活，一旦断水断粮就只剩仇恨，有钱在穷人眼里就是原罪。反而整个故事里最仁义的居然是土匪，非常讽刺。
脫下一切高概念和象征性的修飾之後，只是一則創作寓言，關於藝術探索、邊界討論和外在干預。David Cronenberg絕對有能力將整個故事變得更加類型化，但是他沒那麼做，而他的任性也註定無法被所有人接受。
除了看Lea Sadeydoux躺下去那五分钟其他时候都有点吃不消，想说别睡着了结果转头一看边上人也是都在睡。KS真的演什么都大喘气低声讲话真的够了
9.8/10 #FilmLinc 柯南伯格在此片中似乎代言着上世纪60s到80s的人文与艺术变革。通过伤痕/血肉以暴露“人”的身体性并将其转换成切身的感官快感，不正是马尔库塞，诺曼布朗等后弗洛伊德学者在60s强调的“Eros”？那些“食塑料者”与对身体的机能化转变，不正是八十年代唐娜·哈拉维所发表的赛博格宣言？而那些行为艺术的现场似乎也契合六十年代的西方现代艺术风潮。伴随着蜡黄的质感，厚重的墙壁，斑驳的光影，柯南伯格用“复古”的格调(或回望的目光)来展望未来：将躯体重新赋予历史性，也正是承认其发展或变化。面对那些激进的运动者(食塑料者)，狂热的纵欲者(街边的刀客)，固步自封的文职人员，或艺术弄潮儿，维果扮演的仿佛是隐士(恰好也一袭黑衣)，他所做的不过是将私人的苦痛转录并展示，并感受。虽显唐突，但结尾余韵十足。
