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.
现实主义部分似乎是有情怀关照，但又不能明说。房卡怎样刷，含早不含早，又不像是故事所讲时代和这样形象的角色之间的事。逻辑牵强断裂，喜剧段子每每如此尴尬不合时宜，而关于摩托车的场面只剩自恋。
作为一个喜欢韩寒的粉丝，对这部电影有点失望。你都不知道他是想讨好观众，还是想讨好自己，还是蒙圈了，两下子都得罪了。谐音梗加七扭八歪的小金句，接地气又想搞点小情调。你以前的主角都还算是小知识分子，扯点文艺腔还过得去。摩托车圈的热血和情怀，有自己固态的语言环境和社交圈。一个岛上玩摩托车特技的，居然被飙车族一个都不认识？你是怎么玩的圈？说玩魔幻吧，还套磁着现实主义的壳，说写意诗性吧，还屡屡破防庸俗无比。东拼西凑，又不热血又不沉重。小人物没追求，不可耻，硬扯着说望星空抓螃蟹就当理想，就太强鬼上身了。摩圈的人听到要吐的。韩寒走了一次麦城，搞了个乐高拼接的作品。作为20多年摩托车从业者，看预告片的时候无比兴奋，口碑跌了还一直想或许是大众不理解韩寒和摩托车。今天看了后，确实非常郁闷。这是拿摩托车迷当榨菜啊
倒也不至于那么差……虽然不懂他讲了个啥哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈，但情绪价值有被传递到。不伦不类的
韩寒总是重复希望～失望的剧情，我知道那是怎么来的。
昊然弟弟还可以，含腾量有点低啊……还有，刘浩存真的一如既往地不让人喜欢
鲁迅说 悲剧就是将人生的有价值的东西毁灭给人看 那韩寒的电影就深谙此道 几乎每一部作品都塞满了孤寂 身边的一切似乎都会离去 友情爱情亲情梦想 其实在他早期的小说作品里就能看到 那是小人物在大城市里拼尽所有却最终的一无所得 然后这就是人生 这就是现实 所有说 韩寒的电影未必会让每个人都喜欢 但他的电影已经有了自己独特的风格 至少从这个角度来说 不算是件坏事
没想到的是我才意识到我和韩寒的音乐品味有相似。。。。
前边小笑点太密集了，没有成功给电影打下一个基调，导致风格上都没有建立起来。剧情狗血到不行，没有意义的死亡。
剧情和女主演技绝配，但刘浩存确实挺好看的。
这故事带坏年轻人的三观
十分韩寒，看在工整的份上80分有了 麦琪的礼物这条线隐藏的有点明显 人物动机与设定虽然毫无逻辑，但却十分新概念
凉了白开水，抛开现实也算“奇幻”童话故事了
最后，确实不适合在春节档，结局太无语了
关于当代青年现下心态的一种巅峰阐释，既充实又美满。它不单单是一部关于爱情，亲情，友谊的影片。导演和编剧对于当今青年的私下生活和自我心境的探求，比如如何真的开放自己的人生，还有人生即将步入而立之年的迷茫，以及对自己以后人生的定义。所有的角色都在不断的发出新的枝桠，并且不停的成长，没有一个剧情的转折是刻意而为之，所有人都在最美好的时刻。每一刻的生活都是真的
我明天工作很重要，我想把它做好。
开头还挺好的，普通韩式喜剧俗烂风格，可能是特别想拉近现实和无力的批判，导致后来走向了失控，不过韩寒的审美还是可以的，没多大意思
可以想象大过年看这个片子得多扫兴，故事中的生活多数时刻都是痛苦的、艰难的，只靠着那一丝善意、爱意和美好支撑着，导演编剧却一次次恶意的践踏、摧残、抹去这些。这是多么强行的恶意啊！
愿新年每个人都不必四海为家！
★★★★
韩寒拍电影以来的惯常毛病一个没改，这次还完全失去了精神内核，太创作者的电影最终脱离了现实，也脱离了共鸣。
