This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.
I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).
Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).

5.情怀剧本，落在婚姻问题上真得太没意思了，只能看到妮可一个人的表演，连巴登都没有发挥空间
看不太进去。台词太多的电影真的很难进入。故事看似放在一周内可以显得更紧凑吸引人，但时间线根本不清晰，看得人云里雾里。而且他们在担心的事很难被共情。（2022.1.31 上午 资中 卧室 电脑 一个人）
重看
叙事稍微有些流水账，但是剧情绝对是经得起推敲的。
感觉妮可变年轻了 太喜欢她演这种有野心有态度的角色了 拿个影后吧plz
開了一個「當代凶線」的頭，最後高開低走，後段「驚慄片」重頭段落拍得很洩氣。新貓女演技不錯，期待她在大作的表現。
這部因為有這群戲精 而精彩 JK西 哈維爾 貢獻出很精彩的表演 當然靈魂嬌點 妮可 真是一有她 整個抓住眼球 期待二封奧斯卡
很难找到让人看下去的理由，表演也并没有那么精彩
抑郁症+白作+女quan师+黑人男友+挑战quan威=流量密码？烂片！反胃！
看着毫无共鸣的电影，一对知名演员夫妻在一周时间内经历的大起大落，如果是《我爱我家》的幕后传记相信对中国观众更可以理解，演员阵容强大
就欣赏妮可吧 她的腿几乎到了一般人胸的高度
没怎么看过艾伦·索金，所以对这个琐碎的剧本和高密度的台词不做评价，但是妮可的脸在如此僵硬的情况下（不知道是不是化妆的原因），还是能把露西这一角色诠释得挺到位也是挺让我惊奇，尤其是最后失神的那段和几个黑白片段
She's not the only one listening.
虽然剪辑真的不太好，穿插的几处回忆式采访过多也打乱了节奏，文本对话高密度化，但也真的不难懂。二十几分钟后渐入佳境。一个女演员被制片厂抛弃，来到电视喜剧大获成功后才华仍然周围的人所压制。她对喜剧剧本、表演的认真会被被别人认作现实生活遭受困境后的发泄，甚至没有多少人愿意尝试她的建议，幸好最后结尾令人满意。妮可的表演无疑已经到了一个新的境界
【4.5】美妙的类型语气融汇当下时态，症候紧扣，数字漩涡与物质世界同构。“门窗=界面”，轻巧的比喻句，秘密不断在其间流窜。简单高效却面面俱到，索德伯格太会拍，也是当之无愧的广角镜头大师。
妮可·基德曼在一众高管会议桌上铿锵犀利力排众议的镜头很惊艳，让我迫切想要了解这段真正的历史，看好奥斯卡封后👍
i love the ending how important is the word home for lucy ps.男主和男配的提名真的水的可以
想不到一点都不暗黑，想着什么时候炸裂，结果高能结束了…
几个主演的演技很棒。其实可以拍的更好的，节奏太乱了。
