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.
【YVR-Vancity】三星半。刚得知卡司的时候，还是蛮担心的，总觉得斯图尔特有些过于“英气”了（褒义）。但结果出乎意料，虽然有些角度镜头（尤其是奔跑的片段）还是能看出些不合适，但整体把握完成度还是蛮高的。用说话方式和气声的使用来展现角色的脆弱，能理解，不过和其他人的对话相比，有时候实在有些听不清再说什么。最爱的段落是结尾的驾车和海边漫步，那份解脱是明确能够感受到的。导演的名人传记拍摄越来越驾轻就熟了。
眼光够传神
哎跟长这样的妈宝同室，看的好压抑……
喜欢圣诞节凌晨和两个小王子玩士兵游戏的段落 王室的自由只在烛光里 个人的一切都得屈服于王冠和传统
老用精神分析来解释肢解一个人物、一部电影，实在是看着烦。另外大家有没有发现，女性名人的传记片，无一例外，全是“精神病者”。就是铁拳捶的还不够。
这电影怕不是戴安娜的高级黑？小K演得既不形似也不神似，用力十足反而呈现的做作又矫情，再加上设定还通灵对话被亨八砍头的安博林，看上去像是有什么大病一样。
完全超出预期 ost+ks都是水准之上 很喜欢这张聚焦人物状态的传记片
乱哄哄的，感觉根本不切合实际，尤其是共用手机
很……一般，我觉得结尾的煽情实在是太俗套了。中间有一段我都觉得还不错了，结果这个结尾太拉垮了。
三星半，观众的思维和感知局限在电影的结构框架内，延伸不到“故事”以外的幽微和深远之境，只能通过视听传递内涵的、即时的情绪，运镜和音乐相互摩擦带来的焦虑感几乎是生理性的，聪明的地方是在小时间跨度内仍然紧紧聚焦局部，服饰和饮食被提炼为表达的情节枝干，在视觉和文本上围绕其极尽发挥，高效到像一部精致的类型片。
从Kristen出场，整个电影就充满了诡异的氛围，很奇怪，她显得特别格格不入，情绪总觉得不对。还有她的仪态太差了，也没有什么故事感，就很出戏……另外加上配乐很压抑，让人会觉得不舒服的那种。
侍者对她说：It’s all set。
不管成熟不成熟，我看到了进步，and I had a good laugh! 主要是班底太亲切，优映粉过年了🧨 杨羽邵庄我能磕一辈子
没头没尾的，一上来王妃好像就已经精神不大正常了，结尾也就是带着两个儿子进城吃顿肯德基而已。以前开玩笑说容易拿提名的一个是传记片，一个是神经病，好家伙这又来一神经病传记片。小K快成好莱坞杨幂了，演谁都一个样，抽动嘴角、耸起肩膀来回扭动，小动作过多了，真实的戴妃应该也没这样吧？看完倒没觉得皇室有多压抑人性，更多还是她自己作。几场幻想精分戏还不错。这事儿放到现在就很好解决了，给我安个空调+wifi，我可以永远住在深宫大院里，hhh
3.5 不是一般传记片的套路，演绎的成分不少。有真情流露的地方，但始终没有完全打动我。整体矫揉造作的成分稍有点多。但配乐摄影服装造型是真的撑住了，加分很多。ps 我以后的人生梦想就是拥有片中这个浴室！
剧情挺有意思，就是有点弱，还是靠着这几个老面孔看下来的
有疯狂的石头味道，但又有点刻意，对于小成本国产片来说算是诚意之作
安妮·博林与戴安娜，莫名想起了《游戏规则》
与其说是传记电影，不如说是彻底的心理电影，完全是戴安娜的独角戏，所有的环境、人物、镜头和音乐都在渲染着规行矩步的“深宫大院”带给戴安娜的压抑。禁锢和自由的主题取巧但却流于表面，无论是扯断的项链还是奔向KFC都很理想化和符号话。而且大部分时间里，戴安娜展现出来的是她神经质，而非人物的复杂性，对于她何以至此的真实境况还不如她十分钟采访来得让人共情。不过小k还是很用心，很多时候能带来神似的惊喜。很喜欢影片的色调，像是记忆该有的颜色，正如戴安娜眼中，这个过去和现在混淆不清且了无生趣的权力世界。
三点五吧……
