Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
剧情很ok，细节上的铺垫也做到了，但是为啥莉莉要亲老阎？而且结尾小马的反转够突然，但不够合理。
新人导演有想法但阅历和经验不够，除去范伟张颂文和窦骁的表演，本质就是个简单的半小时舞台剧，内核空虚，很多可以深挖的地方都浅尝辄止。还时不时要炫一下技，导致节奏拖拉，戏剧张力时强时弱。这类片子逻辑和伏笔很重要，但本片深究起来有些地方逻辑有问题，伏笔也只有锁柜子和手电筒。不完美，但是值得鼓励。
验货场面全场最佳，后面砍价算成本，硬要加段子，纯属画蛇添足。
好久没看电影了 挺好看的呀 虽然有很多瑕疵圆不回来 但我还挺喜欢的 窦骁最后狠人有点帅……
7分！几个演员在一个小场景中辗转腾移，通过不断的反转来渲染悬疑气氛和推动剧情，这在国产片中比较少见。影片的节奏虽然慢了点，但看得还算是过瘾，就是最后的收尾有点牵强，不过这很中国。
每一次回溯就是新人物出场开始陈述自己的经历 dm顺便发达发线索 几乎每个人都有罪 最干净的往往到了最后才公布隐藏的秘密 一开始以为最坏的有可能是个好人 看着到也不太新鲜了 还有很多bug 为什么着火了没有邻居报警救火 火又是怎么灭的 然后那个买家 能赚回来钱吗...
有的地方紧张中带着一点诙谐 还挺逗的 但觉得小马的人设有点立不住 感觉要么更强一点要么更普通一点...emm
其实还不错的创意，很适合以小博大。但也许是过度追求风格反而破坏了“以小博大“的好好讲故事的感觉。那栋楼也因为过于戏剧化让故事的舞台剧感很重，范伟藏到床下发现尸体这么大的张力，却非要用很奇怪的电子音乐打断。但整体真的不错了！
黑色幽默低成本故事，只是故事前提还不足以成立，底层逻辑不够，所以加再多戏剧桥段都还是觉得差点意思
原来想看首映，结果西安疫情反复没看成，结果现在在电视机顶盒看了。不断利用空白时间段添加新悬疑的套路，几乎所有反转都是建立在观众并没有掌握的信息基础之上的。回溯式叙事，这个形容比较恰当，毕竟它玩非线性叙事和巧合不如《11:14》这种。没有惊喜，但还可以看。本土化处理也说得过去。喜剧是谈不上的，你不能说范伟主演就是喜剧吧。
故事结构还不错的，有点模仿低俗小说，悬疑主线穿插事件起因，完整而不显凌乱。不过对于人物设立有些过于服务于剧情，导致前后差距较大。封闭环境里演员的表现成了最重要的，角色有限却很精彩。结尾有意料之中也有惊喜，不同于其他电影伟光正的结局，截的恰到好处。
似乎很久没在大银幕上看到这类编剧精妙的“小”作品了，就是尽管你知道到最后一定会有一个把所有认知都翻转过来的套路，却也无伤大雅的那种。对于真相不断的抽丝剥茧是这部电影最为有趣的部分，窦骁放下了小生的架子出演整个故事中最重要的反派，抛弃了个人形象倒也完成得不错，加上一向无可挑剔的范伟和张颂文的配合，这个小格局的故事绝对是这周大银幕上的惊喜之作。
前面很有意思，叙事有《疯狂的石头》风格，中间有段像小品，高潮部分露了怯，结尾想致敬《神探》，但整体更像《大世界》，刻意的社会议题引入又明显的力不从心变成了《调音师》，窦骁发挥不太稳定，当然主要是因为对手戏是和范伟
还有莉莉，她的酒窝很漂亮，和梅婷一样吧 我很喜欢她笑。这里，她对外卖小哥倒是很用心，发现不对劲就让他走，然后就是老范。
及格水准，分段叙事，但是还差点意思，空有黑色喜剧外壳
电影氛围好，观影氛围好，映后互动氛围好，导演意外很可爱诶。是部优秀的国产电影，上过北影节必然不会失望。对于这种一个小房间里拍完一部戏，还要有章有法张弛有度，很高难度。电影完成度很高，镜头语言也带感，局中局的剧本也很棒，演员棒。另外，希望珠珠和蔡鹭以后能接更大的角色。
同一空间不同人物的多线叙事，玩的挺溜，前面各种反转猜凶手表现的也还行，就是人物太少了，凶手并不难猜，最后半段的剧情就乏善可陈了，还慢镜头，昏昏欲睡
有的时候过度反转比意料之中更令人厌恶，整体气氛是很到位的，作为悬疑片不合格的地方也有，最差的地方是摄影，导演真的挺想显摆自己是摄影指导的，但是玩脱了。看看你摄影的几个片子的短评吧，大家都不喜欢你的小伎俩。
如果褪去喜剧元素做成纯悬疑片效果会好很多。架势和悬疑氛围是可以的…
最后结局居然是那个人以前是警察 身体不好 不是猝死 小人物？又都不是大恶？？？感觉编剧想给他们写恶，但是又多了很多善，不伦不类🎾😓😓
