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.
意味不明，强行为母爱感动的三个绝世好男人..在母亲节这天看得有点讽刺。油圭两个阶段的妆造能不能给点区分啊
本来还有三颗星的
有感动流泪了，虽然从创意、剧作、表演、镜头都没有特别惊艳的地方，剧情还有点狗血，但感情还是有代入感的。
这个剧情实在是太烂了，明明是自私鬼为什么还要掩盖成温情？？？唯二的优点是十元女士和子役的服装色彩搭配造型还不错。这么不错的卡司浪费了！
3.7 【反復】不错，很抓观影者。全场哭的稀里哗啦，从毕业典礼那边开始动容。（好看真的好看，妆容和服装设计真的好看，当然也仿佛没有跳出那几位本人的“人设/设定”）
一眼能看到结局的电影 但是非常戳我的泪点 哭到抽泣 优子真的很幸运 虽然成长过程中和梨花颠沛流离 但是她的爸爸妈妈们都很爱她
只想看永野芽郁。还挺温暖的故事。不禁又想起那句老话，故事来源于生活，但是高于生活啊。故事里的优子真的很幸福，梨花桑真是优子命中注定的妈妈，拼了命的努力，挑的后面的两个后爸爸，都很善良温柔。美好的让人觉得就是个故事。看完会暖，其实也是不错吧。
片中的主角像极了现代年轻人的生活状态，上班已经很累了，还要社交，花时间和精力与另一个人聊天。如果遇到的是那类无法令人愉悦的无效社交那就更让人窒息了。过于沉重，还不如躺尸玩游戏，或是躺尸看电影。
其实有很多想吐槽的地方，说不出来😂。不得不说的是，永野芽郁有一双会说话的眼睛，楚楚可怜的哭戏惹人怜惜 配乐也很棒，泪点全靠它
情节一波三折，反应着人性的劣根性和弱点，冷漠的爱情和亲情让人绝望，人性本善，在科技高速发展的将来，生存堪忧啊！
电影改篇得人设都有点怪怪的，不是很喜欢电影里开始刻画出优子是假笑和交不到朋友，小说里优子是因为大家的爱成了幸福优秀的人。永野芽郁和田中圭的演技还是很加分的，比较可惜因为时长的关系，没能多拍优子和森宫叔叔温馨的日常。
《自卫的艺术》导演新作，还是能看出两部作品很相近的地方~比如依然使用格斗术，还有在各种神经紧绷的剧情之下突然插入的偶尔喜剧；小粉角色对应Alessandro Nivola那般神经质和精于挑衅的导师型角色，Jesse的个人问题与身份处理则置换到“Sarah”身上。故事在之上更进一步，纳入很简单也绝不故作高深的问题，来展示对“克隆”这个科幻命题的小视角解读；体量接近像《黑镜》等科幻诗选的容量，并通过大牌“路人”Theo James作为引子发散提问，看得还是很快乐的。Karen Gillan诠释双角同样有惊喜，也还会期待导演的下一部是什么。
就是说 虽然这就是个全员好人的戏份 是个正常情况不可能发生的 毕竟感情线乱到我不能理解也不现实 但我还是扛不住哭得稀里哗啦了 打感情牌真的好犯规 尤其演员选得又都是我喜欢的 真的扛不住 我要去把原著补了！
对于足够强大的人来说，就是一份真挚的感情会打动他们。对于他们来说学习爱也是一种享受。但是电影就是电影，人们向往希望世界是美好的而不是现实中的残酷
怎么会有这么窒息的故事…全员好人，但是真没办法接受这样所谓的情感“接力”…得亏是咩酱和十元这种元气女演员来演的，要不真的太苦情了…哭死
看到一半才领悟故事线。没想到最后面的部分才是感人的地方。原本以为十元只是个不想养小孩的懒惰妈妈，结果最后完全被感动到。
无法理解梨花的动机～甚至无法理解导演想表达什么～成人世界的乌托邦？不过女士和mm好好看哦～
只感到改姓好麻烦。这个妈妈为了孩子一直结婚，我一度非常担心家暴和性侵，怀着警惕的心情无法共情她的母爱和他的父爱
救命可太難看了不知所云時間線也很亂 要不是為了看mie我是不會點開的
果然是爱的接力棒，剧中全是圣母、圣父，只能说算是一个成人童话故事。
