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).
无论是要流血就在全世界面前流，还是最后宣读一个个因越战死去的士兵名字，你都可以把他划分到政治作秀去。可是，政治作秀本质上并不是贬义词，其关键点在于他所要阐述的是否事实和其背后所追求的目的是什么？强权可以轻易干扰司法公正，警察可以随意摘下徽章，但自由思想不会因此而灭种。
最后，我想看Borat大叔把小雀斑按在墙上酱酱酿酿，然后小雀斑疯狂挣扎（。）
三星半，两个小时审判不知觉间过去很剑拔弩张比较喜欢前段尤其第一场审判。
马丁路德金 砰 罗伯特肯尼迪 砰
I have never been on trial for my thoughts before.
Be rational, be spiritual, be devoted, be strong, be inclusive, be righteous, be a man-- u see, the world is watching!!!
劇本及剪接強大，編導功力也比前作《莫莉遊戲》好得多。
3.5，结构能联想到《十二宫》，索金显然从芬奇那里学到了很多。影像上营造的表现力显然高于事件本身，雕刻痕迹也更重。
请 Netflix 讲中国的故事，讲我们自己不能讲的故事
勇敢地挑戰公信部門的權威，他們不是一個人在作困獸猶鬥，不發聲不抗爭，這個世界決不會善意一點，今日之暴亂，明日之革命，道路太血腥/艱辛/反人性了。能把冗長的審判過程講述得絲絲入扣，導演功力值得敬佩。
恰逢美国政权交迭时来看这部电影真的是一种很奇妙的观影体验。艾伦的剧作相当扎实，有条不紊的理清了复杂的人物关系和历史背景，并将其紧凑成2个小时左右，最后在老道的交叉剪辑中一步步将剧情推向高潮。76
最后歌曲响起很感动，虽然对那段历史不太了解，也看得出是美国一贯的电影风格，追求自由才是宪法精神。
信息量极大。现在看来，过去的辉煌岁月真的太牛逼了，无法复刻。

condensed Sorkin, my god he really is corny ah, this just reeks of white enthusiasm
- 你是否蔑视你的政府？
这个动脑不是指聪明，是指求实。
革命与抗议者有像雷尼和汤姆的热血学生领袖，像杰瑞与艾比的宣扬反叛的嬉皮士，像戴维的稳中求健的社会学家，大家性格各异，但是他们聚集在全待会前，都是为了宣扬反战思想。表达大众意愿的人，应该永远得到尊敬。
最后一幕我整个人大哭，每一个人都值得被纪念。反抗无罪。
当更多人愿意动脑的时候，世界才会趋向和平。
