H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival® is proud to present DEAD TONGUES our first Feature presentation on DVD, and the Winner of the 2016 Best Feature award. Following the mysterious suicide of her former lover, a woman teams up with his estranged twin brother to unearth the uncanny events preceding her ex-boyfriend's death. Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft's short story, "Facts Concerning the Late Arthur Jermyn and His Family," this film embodies all the things we value most in independent film and is an impressive example of doing a lot with very little. The film's strength lies in the storytelling, excellent performances, and smart choices about what to show and what to leave to your imagination, unlike conventional Lovecraft adaptations which fail due to overwrought special effects and scripts that just don't get cosmic horror right. Also on the disc are two bonus short films: "Ink" by Ashlea Wessel "Beast in the Cave" by Cameron McCasland Approx runtime 105 minutes NTSC, region 0, English, no subtitles. Dead Tongues was made possible through crowdfunding, grants, and Northwestern University's student group, Applause for a Cause.
有点像四不像，剧本太差～单纯的女同故事，更像是导演自己的自传。
感觉是照着《教父》拍了一套行活，有几个声音上的小trick，然而简单到流水账的线性叙事还是极大桎梏了表现力。杀手出现的时候我特别特别期待枪击戏的处理，没想到只是升格…毫无回味。
感觉有点怪，Gaga的表演夸张而喜剧，故事走向又偏drama，所以比较混杂。但是Gaga演得好，Driver到最后黑化以后的表现不错，清纯小兔子时候不行。还是Jeremy Irons一出手就拿得出手，帅得
可以说是不知所云，最好的部分是在学校雨中拥吻那一幕，勇敢也很动人，其他就算了吧
Really not up to the standards of Ridley Scott...Not as good as The Last Duel which already is an odd miss for Scott. Trying to not cringe as the two leads struggle to have enough chemistry to convince the audience that they actually had any love that wasn't based on an abusive connection with each other. Though it's cool still to see Gaga shine.
纯情叛逆傻少（？）男被心机拜金女主借机上位，整个时尚大家族被耍得团团转？？？虽然影片改编自真实故事，但是整个细节完全不能让人信服
A solid entertainment，就是情节架构和人物角度都不太行，全程一直在想这必须得索伦蒂诺来拍吧。以及，Driver依然是sex scene fantasy带货第一人，继沙发之后我现在开始好奇使用进行曲配乐了👀
这个电影把时尚产业的肤浅鄙陋刻画得淋漓尽致，那些沾不上半点艺术皮毛的排列组合，以及哗众取宠的视觉效果，之所以能受到世人的追捧，归根结底来于这些古老品牌的傲慢与偏见——崇古的傲慢与审美的偏见。它呼吸着工业文明的空气，散发出商业的腐臭。尽管男女主人公的感情生活符合一般规律，没有多少悬念，但人性的演绎依然震撼人心，正因女主人公太平凡太世俗，才使得这场斗争变得异常惊心动魄。
学生时代，总有一些人、一些事，让我们不顾一切；长大之后，才明白我们无能为力，终将妥协。
带着对豪门恩怨的偏见 带着对老雷的要求 看到几乎睡着 最后的“baby can i hold you”才把我叫醒。。。对了 我差点没认出莱托 又一次
将自己带入到两个角色观影，感同身受非常好看。大家打分都太过严苛。
论时尚不如黑白魔女库伊拉，论爱情还比不上我要我们在一起可信。
刚开始看还是可以的，但是到后面越来越乱。老雷明明可以认真讲古驰家族的兴衰，但是讲的东西实在是太多了，又是婚姻，又是爱情，又是杀夫，又是内斗的，很容易让观众产生疲倦。虽然说这一部老雷水平确实有所下降，不过演员们的演技确实是一大看点。
欧锦棠，个人认为李思捷跟他好像。
麦家琪、童爱玲两位女神的出现，可算是这部电影的最大彩蛋了。
lady Gaga身材打五分，剧情打三分，
感謝：譚家明、關錦鵬。女主有點像陳沖啊。想到另一部其中一位女孩要結婚的「情歌」。
这故事水得别说雷老爷子，就是库布里克复活也救不了，除了最后毛里奇奥被枪杀的史实没法更改以外，其余的狗血情节换成Louis Vuitton、Prada、欧尚、万达等等任意一个家族企业都行。
纸醉金迷的奢靡上流生活，古驰家族的兴衰历史。
猜测应该是导演自己的故事，所以整体还挺真诚的，因为真诚所以可以忽略一些故事和技术上的缺点。
