Shortly before he is to wed, millionaire John Willis is visited by Dr. Harry S. Blair, a psychiatrist who informs him that years before he was married to Nancy, John's wife-to-be, and warns him that she is mentally unbalanced.
Blair then relates the following story: After a whirlwind romance in Florida, Blair marries Nancy and starts a psychiatric practice in New York. One day, artist Norman Clyde comes to his office and tells him that an innocent man is about to be executed in Sing Sing Prison and that Nancy is the cause of his unjust incarceration. A distraught Clyde then explains himself to a curious Blair:
Three years before, Clyde meets Nancy, whose maiden name was Monks, when she enrolls in his art class. The moody Clyde soon falls in love with Nancy's honest charm and beauty. Nancy, a secretary, introduces Clyde to her boss, millionaire Andrew Bonner, and persuades Bonner to showcase Clyde's paintings at one of his private showings. To Nancy's delight, Clyde's painting, a depiction of the tragic figure Cassandra for which she modeled, wins first prize at the showing. The evening is perfect until an expensive bracelet is stolen from a guest, and Clyde later finds it in Nancy's purse. After Clyde confronts a confused Nancy about the theft, she relates the following story to explain her behavior:
As a young girl, Nancy lives with her housekeeper mother in the lavish Willis home and plays with Karen, the Willises' little daughter. Although Karen wants to invite Nancy to her upcoming birthday party, Mrs. Willis refuses to allow the lower-class Nancy to attend. A true friend, Karen promises to give Nancy one of the pins her guests are receiving. When Karen realizes there are no extra pins, however, she offers Nancy the beautiful locket she has just received from her mother. Nancy's subsequent joy is soon crushed when Mrs. Willis demands that she return the locket. Later, the locket is discovered missing, and Nancy is accused of theft. Although Nancy's mother soon finds the locket in Karen's dress, Mrs. Willis refuses to believe Nancy and forces her to "confess."
The adult Nancy then admits to Clyde that this childhood humiliation caused her unconscious desire to steal the bracelet at the party. After a forgiving Clyde returns the bracelet anonymously, he and Nancy continue their romance until the next party at the Bonners'. Suspecting that the absent Nancy is spending the evening in Bonner's arms, Clyde leaves the party to look for her and sees her exiting Mrs. Bonner's bedroom just after two gunshots are fired. Bonner is found murdered, and Mrs. Bonner's diamond necklace, stolen. Although Nancy and Clyde are questioned, valet Myron Dexter is eventually found guilty and is sentenced to die. Clyde, however, strongly suspects Nancy, but she angrily maintains her innocence and leaves for Florida.
Back in his office, Blair defends Nancy to Clyde but invites him to his house that evening. When confronted, Nancy denies everything and tells Blair that Clyde is merely jealous. The next day, Dexter is executed, and a guilt-ridden Clyde jumps from Blair's office window to his death.
To avoid scandal, Blair and Nancy move to England, and after World War II breaks out, Blair volunteers his medical services, while Nancy becomes an ambulance driver. Expressing concern over Blair's health, Nancy insists that they take a vacation at Lord and Lady Wyndham's manor house. Just as they are leaving, Blair learns that one of Lady Wyndham's valuable jewels has been stolen. Blair suspects Nancy but is unable to prove anything until a bomb destroys their flat and reveals her cache of stolen jewels.
Although confronted directly, Nancy continues to deny any guilt and divorces Blair after he suffers a nervous breakdown. Back in John's study, Blair, like Clyde before him, tries to convince John to abandon Nancy, who now uses the name Patton. John, however, believes Nancy when she tells him that Blair is still suffering from his breakdown.
Moments before the wedding is to start, Nancy's future mother-in-law, the unsuspecting Mrs. Willis, gives her the same locket that she once took away, and tells her that it is a precious family heirloom. The locket causes Nancy to be overcome with guilt, and she collapses at the altar in hysterics. As Nancy is later taken away to an institution, John sadly realizes the truth of Blair's story, but determines to see Nancy through her crisis.
暗黑版天鹅挽歌，就是结局一言难尽，搞得像老炮儿一样
不知道克隆人在木屋里说的重复人生是不是真心呢
谁能想到全片亮点
人生就是一杯咖啡，闻着是香的，尝起是苦的。
赶脚是《天鹅挽歌》的续集，把一个探讨人生人文情怀很深刻的电影狠狠的黑了一把，挺有意思的，《制毒师》那小子没白教她，只不过这个糟糕的人生又要继续。。。
剧情很特别，冲突面营造地也不错，就是细节处理一般，还可以。
还行，中间埋了很多伏笔就为了最后的开放式结局……最后就是本体无疑，忙活了这么久，不懂自己的人还是不懂自己，不爱自己的人还是不爱自己……
典型的小成本制作，影片故事的属性应该算是黑色系，也算是从克隆体入手，探讨了人伦、爱情以及关于复制体的社会关系。
荒诞片啊。女主还是杀心不够，为了生存，身体健康不是唯一，还需要强大的内心！复制人成长的很快，未来未必会回到之前的生活。
杀了本体最后还是活成了本体的样子。可悲。我没认出来她是星云。
先跟你说好，吃完法餐回来我们可能要那个. 可能有点吵. 你必须谅解.对你死亡你有什么新消息
如果最亲近的人，都因为另一个你更年轻漂亮聪明得体，而选择放弃了你，不然就让他们拥有那个你算了。这也太绝望了。
"星云"大姐演绎双面；....为你妈男朋友选那么磕碜和油腻的？
复制人代替本体这种设定已经不稀奇了，导演表达观点我还是挺喜欢，不管你是复制还是本体最后都是一样的人生。
莎拉太善良了，原諒男友，不殺狗，相信複製人的心理戰計劃，結果中計被毒殺。
克隆的概念已经非常常规了，影片新意有，但心意不够！情节发展有明显的跳跃，情绪断裂较严重，共情感处理较差！剪辑上问题挺大。
还行…开始就猜到了剧情和结局，但氛围营造得挺好🥺
立意不错，不过剧情bug太多，明明导演可以讲好一个本体反杀复制婊的故事，却不满足于此非要故作高深给你搞了一个看似开放式结局的结局。。。
荒诞又合理，设定虽然很简单粗暴，但是耐人寻味，演员都特好，评分是真傻逼……太好看了
可看性还行。女主的表演风格极简，跟前作的一些辣妹形象相比，显示出适应各类角色的全面性。开放性结局，谁活下来，两种解读都说得过去。
