Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.

在这个时间点放出这样一部电影 政治意涵不言自明 但能影响的往往是不需要被影响的人 只为echo valley里再多一道响声
condensed Sorkin, my god he really is corny ah, this just reeks of white enthusiasm
最近无意中连看了几场法庭辩论类的电影，只有这一部看的人热血沸腾，而且是在其余故事线极为淡薄的情况下，把法庭戏份拍得如此精彩。末尾让我想起了《辩护人》的感觉，但是是不同的处理，这里的诠释正如最后一句台词：全世界都在看着！是一种强烈的共鸣感。
真实事件改编，50年前的美国，有过一场如此荒诞的审判https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1qT4y1F7YM
艾伦索金的法庭戏真的好看，把原来史上一笔糊涂账拍的条理清晰，电影和现实交替剪辑的抗议戏最为震撼，现实永远比电影最为刺激
7.6/10 #2020观影补标 即便酣畅淋漓，但是归根结底这种倾向性是高度危险的，即便它甚至与我的个人观点相符合，因为我们深知它在“服务”于什么，且力图“刺激”什么，所以本质上这类影片和单调重复的肾上激素性商业类型片并无二，只是在用另一种催化剂而已。
在大选的时节看很应景。这么大的信息量，能有条不紊的呈现出来，了不起！全片演员的表演方式跟片子喜剧类型元素很贴合，有趣但不会过于戏谑。🤩🤩🤩看到些评论真让人上火，与其担心索金是不是更左，不如担心自己工作KPI有没有完成惹。
PS：昨天看“八佰”，今天看这个，我突然觉得中国为什么要宣传反战，中国近现代根本没有对外发起过战争
处处是设计处处是价值观判断，反而冲淡了真实感，内容上又缺乏新意，与大量的好莱坞左派作品流于同质化的泥淖，看多了就觉得，跟主旋律影片也没啥区别。
很有意思的群戏，电影背后的故事也很有趣 ，索金和斯皮尔伯格对于现在和60年代的对比确实也挺恰当的。川总对美国的影响居然类似于越战，必须名垂青史了。
大胆发言：虽然身处不同文化、阶层和时代的趣味里，但艾伦索金的问题和李炳宪是一样的。
真正艰难的不在于与谁抗争，而是坦然呈现自己。交叉剪辑叙事，人物也不少，略凌乱。即便大家都知道在推的圆石会滑落，至少别让它变得太大太重，否则推不动会被压死。

拍给川普看的，美国不会发生革命，可以投票换届选举。别忘了共产主义的幽灵
独权真可怕，每个人都在以百万分之一的概率幸运活着。
3.5，事件发生的过程，在审判之中穿插，使得剧情看上去更紧凑。最后的念名单，非常的燃动人心！
一句话没说清楚引发的血案，作案手法挺复杂，推理戏也凑合。不过总算发糖了，看到新一小兰终于确定了关系，不自觉的露出老父亲的笑容，加一星
事件发生在1968年美国大选前夕，后来尼克松战胜约翰逊当选了总统；影片上映于今年9月份，同样是大选之际。艾伦·索金再次对时事精准把脉，投射奥斯卡喜好的左派立场，把反战、左派、自由派、嬉皮文化、民权运动、政治倾轧一股脑融汇于这部酣畅的庭审剧，用他精湛的编剧、凌厉的剪辑和一众演技派的热血群戏。很写实很民主太灯塔。
