American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
女导演，女性题材！保守老太太喜迎第二春的故事。室内剧，单一场景，大密度对话，执行流畅、稳健，全靠表演交流，每一次会面两人的心理和生理推进有层次感。艾玛·汤普森影后预定。
从becky开始 我就狂笑 一直到im glad you“came” 最后居然哭了 看着emma Thompson抚摸自己的身体 欣慰的一笑。
Emma, you are a great actress. And Leo, I hope we will meet each other somewhere someday.
不会再为了情色而激动，只会为了情愫而悸动
过于明晰而简单，像是一种政治口号的图解。性的交流里怎么会有那么多边界清晰、分寸拿捏恰当的对话。。
Nancy好惹人怜爱！Leo 体贴又温柔！男主肯定是有mommy issue 的，我也
go find your own pleasure and chase it without shame!
（很好奇是不是每一个进行支付的消费者都会询问MB或MG为什么不从良而是选择做这个～
哈哈哈，应该成为“公共服务”和“强烈推荐给需要你的人”
你很难说它挑战了什么，也很难说它屈从了什么；你很难说它修正了什么，也很难说它强化了什么；你很难不被它的工整和细腻感动，也很难不被它的刻意和回避扫兴。它说了一个无关性的故事，用一种假装什么都和性有关的方式
《都柏林动物》的造作表达之后，凭借这部更为真诚、具有观点也玩弄言语花俏的电影回归，有很令人印象深刻的进步。“嫖客”与性工作者畅聊人生，试着同时享受欢愉与诊疗，好一出“我不卖身，我卖真诚；我不买肉，我买心声”；尽管也是另种形式的主室内戏，却依然跟随对话受到情绪感染。试着给一个朋友描述整个电影，对方“啊，这听起来就很像Emma Thompson演的电影”；她在片中做出了个很大胆的示范，也完成了与导演一样的、酷酷的大银幕宣言。
设定很新颖，立意很进步，但是故事极其俗套，除了两人很养眼其他真没啥看的。想到也是有点禁忌两人相遇互相救赎的电影，超脱就要深刻一百倍
本来其实四星蛮稳的，当男主说性工作合法化的时候我下头下到南极，艺术表达有自由我尊重，同样我也有表达不接受的自由

你还是需要攒一笔钱，去完成一次越级的消费，才能突破边界。
男主眼睛真好看，开场的侧面真的惊为天人。and不太明白为什么要在这样的关系里找intimacy，但是，如果真的有Leo Grande，那大家都是要去book的。
60年代新左派运动的回响，去探索身体和性爱，这意味着愿意接受自己的欲望和种种缺点，以更包容的眼光去看待自己的身体和其他人的选择。
Emma, you are a great actress. And Leo, I hope we will meet each other somewhere someday.
在剧本构架上很优秀，从女性各方面的心理困境出发，通过难以启齿的交易来面对难以启齿的真实自我，再延展出社会整个人群都会面临的一些困境，最后两个人算是互帮互助了，其实关于第三次会面的争吵设置的有些刻意，但这种不经意间流露出的母亲式的过于关心与质问也还是符合Nancy人设的。男主很乖很帅很贴心很有职业素养，Emma Thompson借角色之口传达了她的人生理念和巨大的勇气。我姨太美了，紧绷的、羞赧的、懊悔的、教条的、悲伤不知所措的、释然的、绽放的、勇敢的，每一面都非常非常美。
电影创造一个完美的机会，甚至是一次意淫，年老色衰的女人被尊重，被倾听，被满足，也因此能打开心扉，真实面对自己的欲望，幸运的女人不靠男人就能抵达性福的彼岸，可惜现实里没有里奥格兰德
