Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
电影上映期间有太多大片看，就完全忽略了这一部。再加上另一部同期的文艺片belfast真的是看的睡着了，也牵连了对这一部的预期。没想到坐飞机时候看完意外的好看。摄影，灯光，舞美，演员演技都超级过硬，更难得的是剧情也超级好，并不是一个只重视美感的空架子（比如moonlight和if beale street could talk。没错，都是同一个导演的电影）那种青春爱情友情模糊不清的来回拉扯被拍的淋漓尽致。演员长得不惊艳但演技超级棒。是个很容易杯忽略的年度好片。
[Aggie劇場] 哎呀媽呀 真想不到居然是這麼一個反種族主義、反警察暴力、反法西斯、反仇恨教育，大力弘揚女性力量、彩虹驕傲的影片呢。我要去反省我的直男成見了！哈哈哈哈哈……☮️
对自己不知所措的人，总是希望可以跑到什么地方。
以一对年龄相差十岁的男女之间的“恋爱”
首先要讲好故事。（今年奥斯卡提名怎么都又臭又长啊
带孩子看的，我全程看手机，看完以后，6岁的女儿跟我说“有点幼稚”，6岁的孩子都嫌幼稚，那得有多幼稚？
动画不错，但剧情方面只能说太方便了，过于草率，越后面越草率；结局的氛围倒是有点G4那味。主角团的性格很鲜明也颇讨喜，同时曲风方面更丰富了，歌很多都不错。陆马作为相对缺乏特色的一族一直显得弱势，但从彩蛋上看，或许未来能有所改变——有友谊就有魔法！总体上，作为新世代的开始，本部电影当然远称不上理想，但也不算很令人失望，毕竟是子供向嘛……
4.5。特别奇妙奇特的一场观影体验。三次叙事小高潮 两场无敌大奔跑 让有情人终成眷属。其他的都是闲笔，构建了美国70年代的梦幻，琐碎，阳光，脆弱和敏感。
迷幻but its not fuckin a chick flick
我跟Coming of age电影有仇 而且这部丑到无法直视
最近看的最舒心养胃，合情合理的电影。PTS找PSH的儿子演男主角，又合适又让人感慨。WYT
林克莱特有《各有少年时》，PTA有《甘草披萨》，不过后者好于前者（2022,0505豆瓣6.8分）
听朋友介绍过前面几部，觉得这部格局的确太小了，导致故事情节看着更稀松平常… 歌很好听，细节设置也很可爱，轻松一下还是不错的嗯
故事看似散漫，却又从来只关乎他们两个人，仿佛一切都在为他们的拥抱推波助澜。
太好看了，PTA是不是当代老白直男的审美天花板，全片洋溢着一股来自旧时代的腐朽甜腻味道，配乐节奏服化道，整个质感都特别对。“May I introduce to you Mrs. Alana Valentine?” "Idiot." 如果最后两个人没有在一起我能给五颗星。
什么鬼！看Paul Thomas Anderson看出了千年女优是怎么一回事？！导演本人是不是lock down里光看日剧了？！最后的奔跑蒙太奇我都要看哭了。本来中间程觉得都太长了大概只能给三星的。没想到结尾兜的也太懂了。各位导演最近都爱拍迷影向的电影么。这片的私心也太重了，一堆PTA粉参演，跟今年的Wes Anderson如出一辙是怎么一回事。
6.0 时代感还原得不错，爱情中那种试探、摩擦都比较自然
叙事节奏还蛮怪的，pta依旧很难get，alana演技倒是意外地还不错。
PTA想“四两拨千斤”，可惜招式没耍太明白。爱情的动机不够强烈，完全依靠男女演员的表现吸引我看完它。以及这个片也让我知道PTA一旦开始脆弱敏感忆青春真的挺可怕的（贬义
大失所望，这是PTA的电影？拍给男人看的昨日旧梦！
