This early 70's giallo by Umberto Lenzi is certainly among the best in his filmography and also in the whole genre. Personally I think Lenzi's best films are the funny cartoon-turned-film Kriminal, the stylish giallo Seven Blood-Stained Orchids, the explosive Napoli violenta and this. In the eighties he did plenty of film trash in form of Eaten Alive, Hitcher in the Dark or Black Demons, all of which are ripping something off and/or very dull and slow moving. Knife of Ice came when the giallo boom was at its hottest and the result is convincing.
Technically the film is superb, containing great cinematography in the beginning when we learn about the main character's trauma towards trains. From this point on, Lenzi shows us his ability to benefit the widescreen and, for example, the bicycle ride near the forest is genuinely beautiful! This scene also shows Lenzi's ability to build suspense, very slowly but meaningfully. After all, there aren't so many murders in the whole film, only the suspense circulating around the murderer's identity.
One suspect is a devil worshipper which brings new aspects to the mystery. Since the final scene takes place in a church, one can wonder if Lenzi wanted to comment on something, maybe the hypocritical morale of church and superstition. The main character (Carrol Baker) is mute which demands a lot from her face and eyes. The actress works very well, giving us a believable performance circulating around the emotions of fear and mental pain. The other actors are good, too. The finally, however, may not give too positive a sight about female sex since they all are expressed rather negatively in the film, one way or another. Still this is easily among the most noteworthy in the genre, not as bloody as the Argento films, for example, but equally suspenseful and visually also interesting.
和刚看完的最糟糕的人写得是一类人，巧的是还都在书店工作，但明显这部让我更舒服，喜欢这个女孩子，但是总觉得节奏有点不舒服，剪辑还不够干净利落，期望能更轻快、酷一点。
爱情的到来一切都变慢了，就像Anais的步伐。而今天的你都是每一个过去每一段对话决定的。
自由不羁的灵魂让人着迷。观影过程中我不时因为心变得柔软而浅笑。最后那一幕太妙了～C’est la vie.
3.5 the last 10 minutes was gonna save the whole movie, but the last 2 minutes of the last 10 minutes ruined it again… an irresponsible asshole getting away with everything cuz she’s pretty. And when she’s finally getting poetic justice, she got her way again… some bullshit
两个女人之间的认同和吸引是如此自然深沉，让我不禁思考一个问题，大家为什么不都搞姬呢，这是多么健康和谐的关系，男人能懂什么呢，只知道3p
两位女主的爱情来得莫名其妙，也感觉不到两人之间有什么火花，激情戏也让人很难受，手上都是沙子，怎么做啊🤔
Écris-moi encore！
亲爱的法国人啊，你们可真是个爱的民族。
不讲对错，只说感受。一向喜欢法国电影中，甚至法兰西人民观念里，对爱慕者更迭与性取向流动这两种状况的自如态度。有人说，法国人在出轨这件事上像喝水一样平常。或许吧。尝新式的偷情和有预谋的邂逅，法式滤镜的确很善于对其去做美化，并往往赋予具有诗意的、艺术气息的、人生价值的非常论点。也不是没有道德观和责任感，只是意外情感产生的浪漫跟激情总先行一步，然后去看是狗血还是真情，再回归一个天性如此、爱情如此、生活如此的思想。感情本多是非，又无对错，伦理黑白可以做到基本约束但不能进行根本消杀。 "C'est la vie"
谁不爱既在阳光下奔跑也会独自在夜晚流泪，自由开朗热爱生活的女孩呢？
铺垫有点长，女二出场后才开始好看起来。好羡慕她们是那样的自由、随性、浪漫，好喜欢这个结局，回味无穷。
果敢说出“我不同意”的阿娜伊斯，往后也要继续奔跑下去！
太灵了！从第一个奔跑镜头开始就是一种毫不遮掩的轻盈感 i can see why它和worst person类似 但其实会更离地一点 which并不是坏事而是创造出了于我而言非常爱豆露的乌托邦energy（女主和电影in general都是）还有一些完全没预料到的opening night惊喜 为此也要bump到五星
才不像侯麦呢！侯麦电影中的女性比这部女主可爱多了
姐姐让安娜伊斯走入主流人生，从此两人分道而行，但内心的爱怎可因所谓“人生道理”阻隔，只要你一句“我不同意”，我立马抛下主流和你奔赴。
富有生活的激情，跟随自己的欲望大胆的四处冲撞，可能因此给周遭的人带来麻烦。她缺的是成人世界里人际互动的妥协和谨慎，但这偏偏是无趣乏味的。
真是个想到什么马上就做什么的姑娘 没有一点犹豫和计划 红色短裙的热情 勇敢 大胆
“你身上有种羞涩和大胆的美妙融合”不愧是法国人🥺！成熟姐姐太迷人了！
無所顧慮永遠奔跑去爭取自己想要的。這似乎是我一生也沒可能做的事。
大受震撼，虽然我个人无法理解这种同性之间的（激）感情，而且发生在一个56岁和一个30多岁的女人之间，但竟然看得脸红心跳，海滩情欲戏拍得如此活色生香，都仿似可以闻到她们发丝肌肤唇边的亲昵的味道，如此细腻。如果这事儿发生在国内我肯定觉得这真的有病，但这是在法国法国法国，没有什么是不可能的，年轻女生最后带着精致的妆容和精心搭配的衣着怀着惴惴的心情去见她的爱人，竟然就像是见初恋情人一般，生性如此奔放随性的她，竟然在这个大她二十多岁的女人面前如此羞涩腼腆，让我不得不相信这真的是爱情了。最后拉着情人的手隐入幽暗的电梯一幕真的是最为绝妙的收尾了。是比《燃烧女子》更为狂放热烈的现代同性之爱。
