Whenever I see La Paura I think of it as a companion piece to Eyes Wide Shut, or maybe it is the other way around. Adultery makes both films tick but in different ways. I think Phillip French was right on the money when he pointed out a Wizard of Oz thing in Kubrick's last work. Like Dorothy, Tom and Nicole go through fantasies and nightmares and at the end Dorothy's reassuring childish motto "there's no place like home" is ironically updated to the adult circumstantial adage "there's no sex like marital sex". Kubrick's take is intellectual, he never leaves the world of ideas to touch the ground. He taunts the audience first with an erotic movie and then with a thriller and refuses to deliver either of them. He was married to his third wife for 40 years, until he died. Rossellini was still married to Ingrid Bergman when he directed La Paura; they had been adulterous lovers and their infidelity widely criticized La Paura is a tale, a noirish one. The noir intrigue is solved and the tale has a happy ending. The city is noir; the country is tale, the territory where childhood is possible. The transition is operated in the most regular way: by car, a long-held shot taken from the front of the car as it rides into the road, as if we were entering a different dimension. Irene (Bergman) starts the movie: we just see a dark city landscape but her voice-over narration tells us of her angst and informs us that the story is a flashback, hers. Bergman's been cheating on her husband. At first guilt is just psychological torture but soon expands into economic blackmail and then grows into something else. From beginning to end the movie focuses on what Bergman feels, every other character is there to make her feel something. Only when the director gives away the plot before the main character can find out does he want us to feel something Bergman still can't. When she finds out, we have already experienced the warped mechanics of the situation and we may focus once again on the emotional impact it has on Bergman's Irene. In La Paura treasons are not imagined but real, nightmares are deliberate and the couple's venom suppurates in bitter ways. Needless to say, Ingrid has another of her rough rides in the movies but Rossellini doesn't dare put her away as he did in Europa 51, nor does he abandon her to the inscrutable impassivity of nature (Stromboli). His gift is less transcendent and fragile than the conclusion of Viaggio in Italia. He just gives his wife as much of a fairy tale ending as a real woman can have, a human landscape where she can finally feel at home. Back to the country, a half lit interior scene where shadows suggest the comfort of sleep. After all, it's the "fairy godmother" who speaks the last words in the movie.
阿娜伊斯：我不接受，死死拿捏着御姐。很迷人啊你，虽然有时不考虑别人的感受。太自我自由的活着了。生活主线不强烈的人，很容易让你把生活打得一团糟啊
要永远炽热、永远野性、永远穿着红裙子在琐碎的生活中奔跑啊～最后艾米丽说了一大堆主角把爱情的幻影投射在她身上的话，其实艾米丽自己才是把理想的爱情投射在主角身上的那个人吧～
Broke & broken换英国人来拍就完全不是一个调调了吧🥺结尾真美，勇敢万岁
艾米丽说阿娜伊斯和她的关系是“时间之外的东西”，突然发现这部电影的时间感确实很弱……都没怎么吃饭。
所谓自由勇敢，不过是荷尔蒙上头本能的横冲直撞。毫无克制的，这是爱吗？“我不同意”。
打破不安的边界
法国的爱情电影里总是有：夏天，阳光，大海；电影里的ta们总是有：红唇女孩，超快的语速，法式碎花裙。他们的浪漫已经是带有一种stereotype。我对影片里的女孩并不是很感冒，说到工作和学业真是有点没头没尾，但对于爱情是热切的。
确实还是法国人最会把情欲与诗意结合在一起。
愛上你從來不是因為迷失自己 無法抵擋兩個女人互相寫信 和糟老頭的戲份是要鬧哪樣…
很意外的居然是拉拉电影，虽然导演自身是在讲述一种状态：一种关于内心淤积的情绪，对自我的迷失，对世界的惶惑。人总会想要从外部的爱来获得内部的救赎，总会把爱的人看作完美的偶像，形成一种宗教的崇拜。
几年前我说过，女主就是未来法国的于阿姨，眼神与表情戏十足，就像年轻时候的于阿姨。床戏很喜欢，有一种柔软又带欲望的美
一点让我感觉设计的巧妙及经典，前面一直铺垫女主有幽闭恐惧症，不做电梯不做电梯，当最后你以为女儿用优雅结束这不伦之恋的时候，女主强拉着女儿穿过楼道转弯走入电梯，深情拥吻，电梯门关上。剧终。幽闭恐惧不在，爱情包治百病，设计的巧妙，足够触动你向往爱情
女主对作家的那种不顾一切的激情和试探又炽热的眼神，充满了让人心动的生命力。可能是被生活磨得没有了热情，年龄大了，渐渐自己也变成了一个“理智的”成年人，年轻的、充满活力的、叛逆抗争的、偏要“强求”的，反而更吸引我。
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.
怎么这么好看！法姬恐惧症得到了进一步地缓解。连续两周，所有的空闲几乎都在一遍遍地刷这部电影。刚看完时有很多话，好几遍下来反而感觉说什么都词不达意。最喜欢Anaïs开车那段，Anais手忙脚乱，Emilie在一旁偷笑。前有《西比勒》撞梗《烧女图》，这部无论主旨还是表达和《世界上最糟糕的人》都有重叠。(Valérie：没人比我更懂忘年恋）
Je suis pas d'accord 很好 很勇敢很自由很自我很有生命力 设定在Bretagne也很好很适合 我也想去Plage de Maez-an-Aod😭😭😭
热烈和温柔的爱情组合，电影落幕得刚刚好，不落俗套，也没有牵强悲伤
Anais真的好美。她的生活好像一直停不下来，她不能走只能跑，永远在奔跑的路上，她不能完成一次深入的谈话，和她对话的人总是来不及说完就被她跑掉了。像风，像夏日，像鲜艳的红，热烈，勇敢，冒冒失失，激情燃烧。“我想，如果一个人的生命中曾有过这样的激情，那他就不会再病倒。” 是的，于是Emilie出现了。爱，让Anais停下脚步，让她静静聆听。Emilie说这不是爱，是错觉。怎么会呢？
热烈地奔跑，绝不对生活妥协。用年轻去打动陈旧，用激情去打造内心，用行动去打破幽闭。Anais是每个人初生的样子，不是爱情是illusion，一辈子的勇敢才是。(法式小裙子和衬衫可真美呀）
前段喜剧风包袱密节奏快信息足，最后却突然抒情拔高博同感，导演把控着实一般
