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.
20分09秒，女主台词 ‘It’s... electrifying.' 好吧，奥斯汀去世时爱迪生还没出生，这个词哪来的？一些角色的肤色、台词、剧情上的考量在向现代观众献媚，但这片子总体是anything but奥斯汀。
我倒是觉得达妹很适合演Anne这种内敛又睿智的角色。喜欢这个改编，又想看一遍小说了。
两个小时的内容拍得挺无趣的，拍奥斯汀作品的电影其实不是沉闷的，导演太滑头了，没拍出火花。这几年达科塔从五十度灰里走出来了一条优雅迷人的人设道路，也是很不容易。
电影本是一部近2个小时的房车广告。
这个版本的anne像是一个现代人，有种众人皆醉我独醒的感觉（如果她这么清醒，她当初还会没有主见被别人劝导做出那个决定吗？）。我理解的anne应该是个苦大仇深的姑娘，像sally hawkins那版
很好笑，很感动，韩国人真的好喜欢拍这种夸张剧
细腻的温情，不需要轰轰烈烈的激荡，结合特斯卡纳的自然美景，也许是到这个年纪才可以慢慢欣赏的一壶古茶，沁人心脾
3星半，抛开逻辑纯当金社长和长颈鹿的轻喜剧是尽兴的2小时
跟着电影去旅行。丹麦米其林大厨到托斯卡纳继承遗产——一座老旧城堡。这里除了有阳光、美景，漂亮的食材，还有童年好友，以及自己与父亲的爱恨。本来我以为片名中的“爱”是指父子之情和童年小伙伴间的友谊，结果非要让马上结婚的小伙伴爱上丹麦厨子，并为此离婚，而且明明是发小意大利律师更帅气，这里的安排还是很牵强的。在损失了大几十万欧元后，丹麦厨子把团队搬到了意大利，谁能拒绝地中海的美丽呢？美景有一些，美食不太多，老外吃橄榄油太猛了。我有点好奇丹麦厨子和丹麦短发女是啥关系，合作伙伴？
互相嘴硬不表白的闪转腾挪时期比较好看，一旦皆大欢喜在一起，下一秒就可以当他们死了。
三星半。灾难喜剧，挺适合疫情期间看的。出租车那段太逗了，从地面到天台，又开到501。
当成灾难片看就离谱，但是说它是一部有灾难情节的喜剧吧，为什么又要死人啊啊啊。
太一般了，只能说太一般了，浪费了这么好的idea
好诡异的新编，毕业典礼上老逼丢给大一新生的敷衍化妆舞会
尬出天际，尬到要叫救命的程度，从来没想过奥斯汀改编的影视剧竟然可以如此难看，跟07版一样用女主的独白来推动剧情，但对比真TM惨烈，莎莉霍金斯的自白压细腻抑懊悔悲伤，而达科塔约翰逊的自白像二流脱口秀，为什么不干脆改成现代戏算了，反正女主毫无古典气质，布景也新得跟家具城似的，改成现代戏也可以顺理成章出现黑人和黄种人了，劝导的影视剧可能没有最佳版本，但最差版本肯定是22版
这这这 不就是低配版的A good year嘛
两个小时的内容拍得挺无趣的，拍奥斯汀作品的电影其实不是沉闷的，导演太滑头了，没拍出火花。这几年达科塔从五十度灰里走出来了一条优雅迷人的人设道路，也是很不容易。
前面铺垫太长了就是看的很没耐心
打一星鼓励一下 这个卡司还拍的这么烂也不容易
作为灾难片4分，
