普拉吉布雷劳

　　真相与幻想之间的界限是什么？感官是否能助我们认识世界？影片用一个摄影师的故事，铺开了一系列哲学、心理学的问号。
　　主角是摄影师托马斯(戴维·海明斯 David Hemmings饰)，某天他在公园里抓拍到年轻情侣的系列照片，出人意表的是，照片中的一个女子简(瓦妮莎·雷德格瑞夫 Vanessa Redgrave饰)竟然不惜一切代价要回她的底片。这让托马斯非常疑惑，他相信这张照片许是拍下了某些不可告人的秘密。果然，他把照片放大后，看到了一具尸体和一个拿着枪的人。
　　一桩谋杀案的雏形在托马斯脑中展开。他前往公园寻到了尸体，但没有人肯相信他的推测，朋友们不愿意和他一起调查这是怎么回事。第二天，当托马斯再次来到公园，发现尸体已经消失无踪。只剩下一群人进行着一场虚拟的网球赛，打着并不存在的的网球。

　　帕拉丁夫人（阿莉达·瓦莉 Alida Valli 饰）被控告杀害了自己的丈夫，她找来了名叫安东尼（格利高里·派克 Gregory Peck 饰）的知名律师为自己辩护。随着交往的深入，安东尼发现自己竟然渐渐地爱上了美艳的帕拉丁夫人，然而安东尼已经娶了单纯善良的妻子盖伊（安·托德 Ann Todd 饰），每每想到妻子的脸庞，安东尼的心里就感到格外内疚。
　　然而，对于帕拉丁夫人的迷恋战胜了安东尼的内疚感，一次偶然中，安东尼发现帕拉丁夫人身旁的仆人安德鲁（路易斯·乔丹 Louis Jourdan 饰）最有嫌疑，尽管并没有安德鲁就是凶手的确凿证据，但嫁祸于安德鲁的确是能够让帕拉丁夫人脱罪的最好方式。

　　Siskel and Ebert once ran a special show entitled "Movies I'm Embarrassed to Admit I Liked." I suppose that if I composed such a list of guilty pleasures, this one would be one of them . . . but upon reflection, it's really a lot better than that. Fifteen year-old science prodigy Mitch (Gabe Jarret) is recruited by ambitious college professor William Atherton (in yet another of his patented roles as a loathsome character) to work on the professor's prize laser project, not knowing that the prof is really developing a government weapon. Along the way, Mitch is befriended by Chris (Val Kilmer), another prodigy a few years his senior who teaches the Mitch how to loosen up.
　　This could have degenerated into nothing more than just another teen revenge comedy, but there's so much more: the dialogue is laced with sharp wit there are some lovely scenes that have nothing to do with the story yet are carefully set up, almost as blackouts (e.g., Mitch goes to a lecture at which a few students have left tape recorders instead of attending later, at another lecture there are more tape recorders than students and, in a final scene, one large tape recorder gives the lecture to a room populated by nothing but other small recorders!) and throw-away scenes that make you want to stop and back up the tape (e.g., Chris off-handedly cutting a slice off a bar of solid nitrogen to make a slug for the coffee machine).
　　It's also one of the few movies to boast the presence of the memorable Michelle Meyerink -- as Jordan, the "girl-nerd" who made being smart and female something to be emulated. And there's Tears for Fears great song, "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" providing the perfect coda as the closing credits begin to roll . . . . Yes: really now, what's there to be embarrassed about?

　　影片讲述在一1904年的中东沙漠地带，一名美国寡妇（坎迪斯·伯根饰）及她的儿女被阿拉伯大盗头子绑架，导致美国政府紧张不已，罗斯福总统决定派兵将她夺回。最后寡妇以行动感化了大盗头子（辛康纳利饰），免却了一场杀身之祸。
