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.
3.7/5 吊石头和销毁奖杯的戏很厉害，非常同意lola在最后面对记者提问的回答，把所有意识形态什么位置都丢掉吧，艺术不需要我们来这样去归类。
观感好玩，火力密集，并且没有限制该站某一方或者持某一个固定观点。大概也导致了无法有一个漂亮巧妙的大结局，只能在过程每一个情节的剧烈程度上加码。不得不说可能对演员的要求会变得更高，也会利用到一些自身形象，不过完成得都挺精彩。
其实我没找出本片一个主线或者说主旨，又或者说故事的 morale，非要说的话我觉得是 nothing is real。
对骂那段
一场飘荡在日本海边的蝴蝶效应，将每个角色的立场、目的、行为都特别清晰的展现了出来。除了主角，更明显的是为了节目效果的记者，为了摆脱嫌疑的校方，不断自责的司机女孩，爱慕店长的阿姨，这些才是电影成功的因素，一个个的群像全部立住。古田新太也终于飙了一次演技，把一个固执死板不讲道理的男人演的令人憎恨。日本电影多数都是和解，不管是与自己还是与别人，也许对不起和谢谢都太难说出口了，才让人觉得更加珍贵和感动。
无良媒体+暴躁且根本不了解女儿的父亲+网暴
故事走向卡的比较准，人物之间情绪相互影响和变化让人信服，没有太冒进的行为和转变。
Penelope Cruz + Antonio Banderas + Óscar Martínez 这部黑色喜剧真的是one of my personal favs
让演员都玩嗨了，吻戏真是有够特别的。导演应该也不准备去戛纳跟威尼斯了，把金棕榈跟银狮一起卷了。
又一部manipulation片，榨取每个人身上的符号拼凑而成
太惨了，各种意义上的太惨了，具体有多惨，看海报就知道了。群像戏版海边曼彻斯特，每个人都有血有肉立得住，古田新太是全片的魂，日本人那种拧巴劲淋漓尽致。不知道为啥，看到这张脸就想起了图们。所有的悲剧归根到底都是这个拧巴的父亲一手造成的，他认个错还这么多事...
81/100。#Toronto#通过对一部电影排练过程的刻画，生动反应了该行业中一些不为人知的秘密，也借几个主要人物之手，展现了导演自己的某些看法。但这些所谓的概括其实都是其次，本片最关键的一点是看着幽默而诙谐，不存在太大的观影压力。其实电影节真的需要更多这种不带自以为是的包袱，而让给观众轻松一笑的电影。 @2021-09-17 07:25:34 @2021-12-23 01:14:38
不过就为了看 Penelope 阿姨跳网红舞我觉得也值了哈哈哈哈哈。
视觉和听觉都非常有趣的电影，尤其是几十支麦克风、粉碎奖杯、吊车悬大石头那几段，好惊喜！但我总觉得这么多“高级”的手法应该不会只停留于我想的那个层面吧，关于电影行业演技和人气的思考和讽刺，结果直到结束发现还真是，对情节的丰满程度上多少有点失望，技巧和形式大于内容
父亲偷偷扔掉女儿“攒”的化妆品让人想到一个词：期待可能性。女儿去世，父亲才去慢慢去了解她很真实，片尾在遗像前放iPhone和看画作（看到同一个海豚云天空）细节度拉满了。
在学校在家里都找不到认同感和价值感的女儿，在超市偷东西的时候，已经想要打破这种悲哀的生活了，车开过来的时候她没有闪躲，而是闭上了眼。然而她死后，还是没人能真正懂她，暴躁的父亲，被追究的可怜的超市小哥，大家都被卷入这个追责事件里，不断被追究到底是谁害死了女孩。是谁啊。是这个社会，是构成这个压抑社会的每一分子
多角度关注社会现实的影片。在一次不幸事件之后，道德挣扎、舆论介入对当事人的内心影响。成立的逻辑基础是：尽管这个社会对我们存有恶意，但多数人内心仍存有良知。
人生如戲，戲如人生。但總的來說，不知道這戲想表達什麼？
旬报似乎十分喜欢这种因原生家庭的不堪而给人带来持续性毁灭打击的影片。去年是《一夜》，今年则是这部。虽然多少有些抓马，但整体的矛盾是真实的。在高强度的压抑之下，对于故事的细节与延展方面处理得相对妥当。吉田新太的表演在我看来是不亚于凭《美好的世界》拿下旬报影帝的役所广司的。
本着想去看看西班牙可惜都在室内 用排演影片的过程讲故事又全部在室内有点打瞌睡了😪
