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.
在分手期间看这样的片子真的爆哭 只是这位贵人在《使女的故事》中饰演一个反派让我频频出戏🤣 希望大家都可以get through break up
音乐剧传记片，创作者困境故事，个人情感充沛，整体渲染扁平，除了加菲其他角色都不讨喜。
永远向不被生活打败，为了自己的热爱，自己的梦想坚持奋斗的致敬
削弱了我对歌舞片的好感，以自我（梦想）为中心的人，他的身上并没有光。相反，该片不断用29岁奔三的年龄焦虑来表达逐梦的急迫，急到好像有躁狂症一样，没有与梦想和衰老和解的追梦人，狭隘到令人疲倦。所以我无法被他激励，他也不是好的榜样。
原剧完成度算不上高，所以之前觉得电影改编的唯一出路是传记化，果然如此，但这就成了一个套娃：在剧里写Superbia，在电影里写/演TTB，LMM把后面两层拍扁了些但是又必须留着，甚至还借用了最早的独幕剧模式，不知道普通观众观感如何，也许依然会觉得乱？但这片子太深情了，一直哭一直哭，没法用普通观众视角对待。桑爷-Larson-LMM的传承，浸满对剧场的爱。改编是同人写法，尽力把观众想要的东西都找地方安放。非常喜欢LMM把Larson删掉的Boho days拿回来，一秒还魂Rent，绿绿裙的处理也非常合理，最后片尾还贴心地还回来。Sunday生怕普通观众看不明白给了一段前序交待，把Susan和Dot写成了对照的情感线，BP女神出现的时候真是哇哇哭。桑爷亲自的录音也感人非凡。lots of lov
在滴答声的催促下，焦虑和不甘油然而生，朋友的成功，女友为生活做出的妥协都是一声声的质问，唯有梦想与坚持能换来精神的富足。加菲的歌喉和演技得到了完美的释放，精妙的剪辑让两部音乐剧此起彼伏。但是剧本的情感冲击力略显不足。
不会有人在意那些落下的不同步调者，
创作者大概是最不能平衡工作和生活的吧。整个人好像分裂成两个，一个还在惯性关心着亲友，一个已经游离出去在想怎么把这个素材好好用起来。又焦虑又冷漠。但是没办法，对于有天赋的人来说，没有什么比创作更重要。最极致的痛苦和甜蜜都因创作产生。唯一美中不足的是加菲唱的一般。/《Superbia》那段几个歌手应该是专业的，Sextet Montage那段那个卷发女生唱得好好！另外力荐《Rent》好吗，有机会看的都去看！
稍微有点触动的是中间分手一段，争吵及关系的崩塌和后来以此改编成的演出唱段交叉呈现，情境基调的反差高效带出主题性。至于其他和整体……听听歌就好了。
明显不如爱乐之城，音乐和舞蹈不突出，除了凡妮莎其他演员也不吸引人，故事也不算流畅。
将歌舞成功嵌进了情节里，而不仅仅是停留在了简单的插入，人物情绪的展现更是非常丰满，充分把舞台的效果发挥出来，加菲的表演抓住了人物对梦想的坚持和对舞台的奉献，情绪的表达很到位，唱功也真的好。（8/10）
虽然我不是特喜欢这么美式的音乐，一开始觉得过于激情澎湃，但整部电影其实是在用激情澎湃的音乐来庆祝一个人在有限生命里获得的伟大成就。乔恩的作品很难说不是他燃烧生命创作的，为了创作伟大的作品他甘愿过着贫寒低下的生活，这样纯粹的生命值得用最滥情最激扬的音乐赞美。
故事有够碎碎念的，加菲演得也好卖力，最后资料视频加1星
又丧又燃
有说世俗的成功能给人带来不被指摘的自由，
11-19 期待多时，看完之前的纪录片之后，对于jonathan也稍微多了一点了解，影片是及格的，因为好像也没有超出预想该有的样子，但是至于该什么样，我也不知道。加菲的演技，还是给我一副之前看过他在社交网络里这样讲话的感觉。最好看的还是最后字幕出来时jonathan本人的影像，演奏音乐的时候的快乐，日常的生活里透露出的乐观和积极
《斯通纳》中的melody——爱、认同、怜悯、志业、傲骨、信任与死亡——在剧中流淌。好听好看又好玩😄
我依然被这部电影打动了
周日在咖啡馆喝咖啡的SB懒癌，忽悠卖货的无良广告商，前女友哄一哄就好，房租水电别断我马上续费，好基友的逝世，以及要连续不断的创作才能期待卖出作品。这就是剧作家对过往创作史的狠狠吐槽。30了又如何？功成名就的前夜，只是35就挂了，人生真是充满遗憾。7.7
本大杂烩人……看过rent20周年巡演，对Larson略知一二，落实到影像上整个N次泪水在眼眶打转，基本上都围绕在音乐点上。加菲的表演也不蜘蛛侠，很ok！感动蔓延！
