Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
听说舞台剧更好看,留一星给舞台剧。这是一个关于变装皇后Jamie的故事,关于他的接纳的故事。他的自我接纳,勇敢走出梦想的那步,并且用自己的勇敢征服了周遭的亲人,老师,朋友,甚至是敌人。虽然略有遗憾(爸爸无法接受),但他的故事足够感人。电影里的歌舞也非常好看,虽然没有特别好听的歌曲出现,但都非常有感染力,能将观众拉进情绪里。期待看到原版的音乐剧。
既然转移这么准时,你老实待着掐着点跳楼不行吗?
整体来说还可以 除了歌舞片段不太喜欢 吉米真的可爱又善良啊 妈妈和身边的朋友也好有爱啊 be yourself 非常棒
平庸,苛刻点说剧场版的张力在电影中几乎被磨平,特写镜头表达的情感居然还不如剧场固定视角来得细腻已经很说明问题了。插入几首pop新曲破坏叙事节奏,还把激情四溢的Legend of Loco Chanelle和Limited Edition删了...删了......怎么想的.........谢幕的可爱亮片牛仔装也没有呈现完整版:)
应该用多名演员来扮演主角的,不该只用一个演员。这么强的情节已经足以唤起观众共情了。
理查德格兰特(Richard E. Grant)drag queen造型抢眼。总体来说更乐观积极,歌曲也挺好听,男主很有才华。
一开始有点迷惑,要倒回去看几遍才理清楚脸,后期又不变脸了,变成武斗剧,整体挺新鲜有趣的,可惜节奏不太好
算上音乐剧官摄和现场,这是第三次看Jamie的故事。电影的蒙太奇非常加分,唱到过去窗户里就映出小时候的自己,从学校一个转身就到了舞台中央,drag queen就应该用这种drama的方式呈现!原卡John小可爱也在回忆里作为彩蛋出场,我没有遗憾了😌不过电影版加入的LGBT内涵,有点突然,可以理解但不喜欢。
每12小时更换一次灵魂就是为了从毒贩以及腐警手中救出女猪脚,片头挺不错的,但女猪脚的设定感觉神烦扣一星,加上格局小气了再扣一星。
作为歌舞片来看最大的弱点还是歌舞编排有点羸弱,力度差了一些。故事讲得倒是可以,除了成长和Queer战斗性的展现之外,最喜欢其中关于Drag Queen与日常的关系的探讨。算是有某种对反叛意义和保守主义关系的调和吧,因而片里对反派(男性气质和保守主义)人物的处理也比较温和。虽然我个人不是很认可,但确实没有一些美国片那么mean啦。
整体剧情就是男主不断魂穿几个对手的身体,寻找自我记忆和身体的故事。前半段还挺刺激的,节奏也很紧凑。
故事设定还行,算是有趣,完成度也还可以。不过叙事的清晰度上差一些,故事略显凌乱,同时整体有些中规中矩,没有什么太亮眼的点
三星全都给到McCrea……太美了🥺🥺不要自作聪明改这么多细节好吗 很喜欢剧版Pritti和Jamie作为minority的连结,电影似乎弱化了……(而且在stereotyping feminist
故事是不错的,但是同一个演员演切换,只能镜面反射去证明不同身份,代入感弱了点。
2星半,概念很不错,动作设计拳拳到肉,但就是设定交代太笼统,转换次数多以至于无感了。
设定挺有意思,但是剧情不难猜,结尾反派死于话多。
电影版虽然在原剧里延展了很多切实的画面,但整体却不及原剧的效果。影版卡司也不如西区原卡惊艳。
整体来说还算是不错的,内容很丰富,值得一看。
She is sooooooo beautiful!
删了舞台版几首歌……舞台版的张力更强,电影版到情绪高点总是不上不下,卡住的感觉……
