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.
第一次看印度同影 同为亚洲人能relate到 最后男主在pride parade里带上那个彩虹面具那里真的挺感动的 但是我感觉男女主家庭都有一定特殊性 就是父权力量都比较弱 现实生活中出柜估计比这还要困难吧
印度电影都能不摭摭掩掩的讨论同性恋的家庭和社会问题，我们……
永结同心🙏🏻 喜剧拍得好 感情戏部分光线也厉害的 作品意义大过于一切 质量可以 喜欢喜欢
BTW. “生来过然369”《见妈》还要埋《爸行》串片梗啊
还挺不错的 印度在印度电影里都变的干净多了
最后希望世界越来越好，中国也一样，不要再有这么多偏见和戾气，爱本身就没有错，love is love
2022开年就看到这么一部神奇的作品，“厌女”但酷儿。非裔女性与微胖女性共同被凝视为“女汉子”的不性感象征，但在某种程度上又和女主和男主性别交换跳舞加上男主被女主公主抱有一曲同工之妙，搭配上这个在传统上反传统的故事，真是奇妙无比。非裔、ABC、杭州与深圳共同组成了潮汕对外部世界的想象（还蛮奇妙的，京味《野马分鬃》想象的外部世界是蒙古的草原，《爱情神话》是一种世界十字路口的想象，《见妈》是一种潮汕中心的想象，一个故事孕育出什么样的他者观和地域还是有很大联系的。）杭州作为他者真是第一次看到这种描绘。吵架戏、长镜头，虽然非科班演员和剧组，看起来都挺像那么回事儿的。以及，vlog、短视频或者说当下最时髦的first的新概念“超短片”都融汇到这部影片中，独立成章又补和电影脱节。真的是太神奇了。
只不过喜欢了同性 或主动或被动的向家人述说真实的自己 就像做了十恶不赦的坏事 有问题的到底是谁 还好正常的地方越来越多
剧情还挺幽默，从一个故事展现了现在同性恋所遇到的社会认同问题，电影中每一对恋人彼此一见钟情的画面太幸福了，最后大圆满结局
這個選題用這樣的形式去表達
游行那段好感动啊
love is love.
剧情有点无厘头的幽默，但最后的骄傲游行还是让我眼泪直流😭😭😭😭😭
宝莱坞真的很敢拍也是真的拍得好 编剧没有为了戏剧性硬加波澜可能影片主题本身就是最大的波澜了 人物也有过挣扎想过妥协最后的结局也算圆满 人物接受自己的同时周围人的反应也代表了社会的态度 能谈论就有希望🌈
印度拍这样的题材能不加分么，男主出柜那刻真的深有同感，就是突然泣不成声，体验过才了解。
影片中充满着妥协，虽然结局过于理想化，但其中的真情实感是很动人的。彩虹旗游行的那一幕真的让人感动。庆祝所有形式的爱，love is love
环境与传统左右了人内心的真实。小成本作品，没有惊喜的那种。
这部作品可能更加适合情人节档期，让真的平常的普通人，接接地气，看看成年人是怎么面对处理感情问题和家庭问题。影片也是没有俗套去弄一些狗血的挽留情节，感情至少都是细腻表达到位。我不是潮汕人，不了解潮汕人那些复杂的关系，但不妨碍这是部值得夸的作品。
矛盾聚焦点放在潮汕人的婚姻观念上，故事非常完整，起承转围绕“外省人”与“离过婚”的身份冲突，并适当埋下伏笔，让关系得到顺畅而合情理的转变。
三星给生活文化展现，让我这个“外省人”第一次对潮汕有了直观感受。开头的一些无厘头喜剧（比如洗手间和相亲）看得很割裂。
