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).
真实事件，一波三折，也真的是不容易了，那个年代的探险和旅行可真的是拿命去进行的，美中不足前半部分缺失了大量细节，后半部分又有大量多余的细节，好题材没讲好故事的感觉，有点点可惜！
跟家人一起看的……普普通通的电影罢了 （才知道里面的乔·科尔是浴血黑帮里面的John是说怎么这么帅又这么熟悉。
最令人动容的其实是之前那个舞会皇后说的，扔掉皇冠，拿到学位，开始对未来期待，而不是对过去遗憾。改变什么时候都不晚。
就为了不写那封信，差点命都丢了！！所以不要懒，想到就一定要做
Cineplex. International Village. 看预告以为是个小人物电影，坐了两小时好奇故事怎么结束后才知道是个传记片。Charity founding?????? 重点在宣传？
美式青春校园生活电影在2022年的绝好复刻，传递的价值观真的很正啊，有歌舞，有欢乐，有青春的活力，有对生活的正向引导，不错不错
卡司阵容也是比较强大，细节风趣，节奏明快，一点也不闷！
后半段加入精神/心理元素后才开始变得有趣了一些，但整个旅程都显得很枯燥，对主题的强调也没什么感觉。
看得很压抑，2个大老爷们撑起了全剧。长期的冰天雪地生活两人都产生了幻觉，支撑了快3年，频临崩溃的时候终于得救，真不容易。
很老的老套路了，但还是挺吃美式青春电影，回忆高中时期的那一段镜头和配乐都不错，挺让人有共鸣的
20220615——158；今年的新片，冲着马克·沃尔伯格和梅尔·吉布森去看的。一个拳击手因个人遭遇最终成为神父的故事。根据真实人物故事改编。
代入感不强，可能是共情关联，内容选择和内心情感描述的问题，但对真人真事抱以尊敬
演技在线 画面一流 真实改编 能熬三年 实在太强 我等废物七天就死 amazing
暴烈底层拳击手，车祸余生欲回头。
算是今年上半年看到的最感人的福音电影了吧，没想到是传记类电影
很好的天主教宣传片，我居然看出点励志的感觉。但我依然不信上帝…
丹麥人走到了美國人沒走到的地方，於是美國人就承認了～真是白人好說話呀～
真实故事改编，马克沃尔伯格演的很努力，倒是父母的配角很亮眼
如何在学校里重新变成queen这点根本没有多做讲述，一进去就又顺风顺水就很突兀。完全没有经典青春片的精髓，反正整个一大失所望
