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.
（有点追求的）做喜剧的人肯定都希望去讲点政治、宗教、性什么的吧……可能不存在什么最高级的喜剧，但扮丑是最低级的喜剧，我大大赞同。“不要去讨好观众，要有你来告诉观众，什么才是有趣的。”
有情，有梦，当少年变成白发，初心依旧，愿你的爱能永远如霜雪之贞。
各过好各的人生。厉害又倔强的师傅，唱歌的千春。北野武演的太帅了吧啊
6.5
师徒情很感人 影帝声音模仿的真的不错 有老爷子的感觉 北野武真的是神人 包括他身上发生的故事
非常动人，最后看的一直在哭，遇到一个好的老师真的太重要了。
4.5/5 顺序、插叙、倒叙并行的叙事结构使得剧情丰满有趣。最后北野武本人走回浅草法兰西座的长镜头堪称本片高光，物是人非，有种夜深忽梦少年事之感。前期铺垫过久扣0.5星。
各过好各的人生。厉害又倔强的师傅，唱歌的千春。北野武演的太帅了吧啊
我们是谐星，笨蛋！我们逗你笑，不是被你笑！去告诉观众什么才是有趣的！从剧场，短剧，漫才到电视，《菊次郎的夏天》里阿武还在跳踢踏舞呢！！！！
对师生情没有什么太大的感觉，但是每一段踢他都给的太好了。and，，幽默是智识满溢。
师傅太好了，思恋和孺慕之情快溢出屏幕了……
最后重回浅草法兰西座太好哭了。这片子倒是让我才真正get到了大泉洋。门胁麦越来越厉害了。铃木保奈美还是很美。“要在我这里演戏，可不要被别人笑，而是要逗人笑”对师匠真的肃然起敬。
在片中他模仿北野武时不时的面部抽搐，让人会心一笑，电影回顾了六七十年代由鼎盛至萧条的浅草，从北野武折射出来的小人物在舞台上挣扎，想拼命抓住那一束弧光的模样。全片看似描述北野武早年的奋斗，实则是献给师傅的一首挽歌，由此片也明白了北野武心底里的那一丝温情来源于何处
一起跳踢踏舞吧。确实红鳉鱼。xixio. 影帝get到了。
他这人，混蛋了一辈子。可这一辈子，身边一直有很多爱。
srds，北野武那会儿脸还不抽抽。老年北野武扮相过于惊悚了。
“既然是谐星就要记得什么时候都要装疯卖傻”
影帝神情模仿的太像了，老年妆更是几可乱真。大泉洋人设更讨巧，发挥空间更大，整体四平八稳，看师傅酒馆那场戏很棒，一部不出错的不错的传记片，细微之处还得看日本片，国产片愣是学不会拍细节
柳乐优弥表演时模仿得真像啊，那种用后部发音的气声。他跳踢踏舞时笑起来和小时候简直一模一样，真神奇。
所以这是北野武的传记片，大概也可叫作《我的黄金年代》、《浅草的吾师》。
