Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
是索伦蒂诺的痛苦与荣耀和罗马 而会被如此私人的故事打动 也是件很自然而然的事 就是很喜欢
上帝《在你面前》既是创造并享有《上帝之手》称号的人，也是索伦蒂诺的「救命」恩人。这也是为什么，较比「陪跑者」范霍文抑或村上春树来说，洪尚秀、索伦蒂诺以及紧随其后「紧赶慢赶」的滨口龙介总是被「欧洲电影节」官方候选、提名和肯定的「行业」领导者：他们把万众仰慕的神通过「电影」媒介还原成了具体的人。神迹全都由人创造出来，宛如「上帝」创世纪。耶稣也只不过是经由「人类之手」不断锤炼而得的一尊泥胎，作为终有一死的人类的某种延续。最终领导一支人类队伍征战世界杯的民族英雄被他的兄弟姐妹塑造为一个民族的化身，指导着全人类如何负重前行，用手用脚，抑或用《钛》用车穿过各自的苦难——对于有艺术追求的《浪荡儿》来说，以艺术为初心方能站在艺术舞台的中心，面向读者、观众和更好的自己；对于普通人而言，艺术的重心便在柴米油盐。
悲剧里的荒诞更显悲凉，大概导演想说的是，他“在这片荒谬和混沌中，不知觉就这么长大了，也即将逝去了”。
自传式的回忆录，索伦蒂诺一改之前华丽夸张的美学设计，返璞归真地细诉80年代的美好时光，怀旧氛围做得特别细致。也许是过于珍视和沉溺于私人回忆片段，松散的情节没能构筑起强烈的戏剧张力，主人公的情绪往往游离于叙事，自然难以给人带来感染力。看到最后发现和别的青春成长题材区别不大，没让我领悟其人生中最重大的转折如何促使他毅然走上电影创作的道路。
“我没疯，我只是很年轻。”
小小年纪就已经会双唇微张，眼神迷离应付所有情感戏这一套了。
整部电影明媚的，淡淡的，却又是轻松的，一双隐形的上帝之手真的可以轻易地将人间搅翻，再想到东航全部遇难…唉…
很精彩很好看，好的部分非常好——除了有的部分特别拉垮非同一般地拉垮，看着看着突然跳戏了跳到郭敬明片场，又跳回来，又跳到郭片场；这使得整个看片体验情绪非常无法连贯。细节（很多地方）做的很好，但是有不少部分的节奏和转折又是一团浆糊。到底是为什么啊？？？（为了那些很好看的部分还是给四星（虽然还是有点气
坐在火车上，戴上耳机，按下播放键，那缓缓响起的旋律把你带到了那不勒斯，是那个我的天才女友，也是绝美之城，航拍，激凸的乳头，游艇上的裸体挑逗，被殴打辱骂淫妇的小姨，父母靠在一起的永别，就这样了，没有其他了？是的，死亡如此陌生简单，我不知道自己还能不能快乐。下次找个和你同龄的姑娘，希望你能展望未来，少年一点点成熟，终究如烟花般，一瞬间的绽放。
带着自传体和风情画的，索伦蒂诺拍通俗剧了！罗列臃肿变成了罗列趣闻和生活状态，而且背后往往都有沉重的一面，流畅、放松、深刻。小主角对生活痴迷，父母的死本是让他想要逃离现实，导演的一番话让他明白，他一直生活在梦里。此片可谓索伦蒂诺最容易理解的作品，依然展现了不凡的掌控力
个人情绪与情感的记忆美化电影。前一部分繁复的家庭亲戚像是在完全写实世界里走进了一群漫画人物，夸张的造型，喋喋不休，好像除了男主在没有一个人是真实的，都是被记忆夸张了的。后一部分则是孤独中最哀伤又精彩的记忆，后面出现的人物跟环境更为贴合了，就好像人物本身的造型就该做那样的事情，这种真实真是在意大利生活过的经验与记忆带给我的，好像这些人物都是碰见过的一样
想起一堆同类题材的电影，如金宝拉的《蜂鸟》，用一种恒定的坐标譬如马拉多纳的上帝之手进球、譬如圣水桥的坍塌来建立起时间的支点，围绕支点建构年少情感的来龙去脉……索伦蒂诺用当代电影摄影布光技法去捕捉年代故事，既是一次时空对撞，也是一种对时间滤片的破坏，寻乡电影（少年是时间的乡愁）不可避免地陷入到自说自话的地步，露出疲软的自恋、暗自伤神的呓语面目。
前半部分是，那不勒斯的不魔幻的《一(bai)年孤独》，后半部分是“上帝之手”改变了我的命运轨迹，青春断崖，所以要去当导演了。
平淡又散乱的青春故事，在电影院看的话应该会睡着……意大利的故事好像永远都发生在夏天的海边，永远都是蓝色，这部电影更像一首写给那不勒斯的情诗。
索伦蒂诺眼中的家庭生活都能这么闹腾，可见意大利家庭是真的抓马
我想去那不勒斯游水🏊♀️，我想这个电影应该会在儿子18岁的时候分享给他看，当然他要是提前找我要资源，我也给
豆瓣评论说，这部电影是导演保罗·索伦蒂诺的那布勒斯乡愁。
名导论电影那段有点over了 整体来说感觉有点像导演不断在提醒你“看！我在这儿成长了” 但美是很美的 音乐也很美
可以感受到电影中景和乐的美，但对于这样一个私人化的故事还是难以融入。上帝为何总是在我们不经意间带走我们所爱之人，带走曾经熟悉快乐的一切，只留下孤单的自己。过往的那些瞬间、那些欢乐、那些热爱如今已经渐渐远去，眼前的路只有彷徨未知的未来，唯有伤痛和信念将是前路的希望。（看完爱上那不勒斯的美景了）
心存希望，就能拍出治愈的电影。索伦蒂诺的镜头太迷人了。
