简介：影(🈯)片(piàn )主(🍅)角是一个78岁(suì )(🐽)的英国著(zhe )名(míng )作家，他身(🕋)患重病却(què )仍(réng )然(🕰)酗酒成性，口不(bú )择言(yán )。夜晚(wǎn )不时(shí )陷(xiàn )于噩(è )梦的缠绕中，令(lìng )他想入非非，一边琢磨(🚤)着(zhe )他最(zuì )(🐿)后一(yī )部作品的情(qíng )节构(🕖)思(sī )，一边回忆着他(🛹)的(🚉)往事。于(🕌)是(shì )，噩梦、他(🗑)的想(xiǎng )象加上往事的回忆(yì )相互混(😱)淆在一(🔊)起，共(🚢)同(🌙)构(📎)成了(🚣)他作品的故事框架。 影(💱)片将文学(xué )创作的过程(chéng )(🗞)跟(🙂)幻想、愤怒等融(🤠)为(🤸)一体，制造了一个精(🎾)致的(🈴)弗洛伊(🥫)德哑谜(mí )。这(zhè )是雷奈的第一部用(🏯)英语(yǔ )拍摄的影片(🚴)。剧本比较拗(niù )口罗嗦，有较(jiào )重的文(wén )学(🍑)味，影片(piàn )被(bèi )认(🦇)为是雷奈的杰作，博加德的(🃏)演出(💅)尤为精(jīng )湛，但一般观众可能会(🐡)觉得(dé )单调乏(fá )味。 Clive Langham (Sir John Gielgud) spends one tormenting night in his bed suffering from health problems and thinking up a story based on his relatives. He is a bitter man and he shows, through flashbacks, how spiteful, conniving and treacherous his family is. But is this how they really are or is it his own vindictive slant on things
