Alex de Renzy (FEMMES DE SADE, PRETTY PEACHES) was one of the greatest directors of adult films ever, his career starting in the late 60's and preceeding well into the 90's. So saying that BABY FACE, stands as his crowning achievement is no small praise. This ranks as one skinflick that truly has it all, a complete storyline, fine production, and a couple of decent acting performances and some of the hottest sex scenes ever assembled in a single movie.
Big, lumbering Dan Roberts stars as the hapless construction worker who has to go into hiding following his seduction of underage but willing Priscilla (Lyn Cuddles Malone) which incurs the wrath of her religious fanatic of a man. After a near-fatal accident leaves him unconsciously drifting in the bay, he is saved by fan favorites Amber Hunt (FIONA ON FIRE) and Linda Wong (SWEET CAKES) who clean him up and then some. Hunt comes up with the brilliant idea of taking him to the Training Camp, a brothel catering exclusively for rich women and run by her aunt, affectionately referred to as the Champ.
This fancy cathouse provides the perfect backdrop for the movie's myriad sexual situations, nearly all of them handled with great style and enthusiasm by cast and filmmaker alike, shot through with a wickedly subversive humor. Standout scenes include gentle giant Roberts tender initiation of the eager Malone, their contrast in size providing an instant thrill all by itself, and the late great Kristine Heller taking on pretty much all the guys present in what has to stand as the single greatest gang bang sequence ever committed to film or video.
就，节奏慢到像ppt，大量360度的旋转镜头看到想吐……再好的寓意用这种表达方式，又能表达个啥
Like everyone said, top-notch on cinematography, sound design and art department, but no story, only vibes. Good for eye, not for brain. The last 20 mins makes the most sense of the movie, like an ending explanation in the ending. The overall tone of the film, or from adult fairy tale aspect, it reminds me of Tale of Tales.
“东方人看这个片子相当于毕赣拍了部沉香救母给西方人看”
精华在结尾，走马灯一般的回顾一生正是死亡的征兆，但在主角解开绿腰带的那一刻，剧情升华了。
一部充满现代性的、重述与改写的骑士史诗，高文爵士成了浪荡懦弱的纨绔子弟，英雄传奇也染上了权谋表演的底色，绿衣骑士的树精造型及对绿色的那段直白阐述则似生态批评典例。大卫·洛维依旧喜欢把玩时间魔术，一如那段360度顺时针（显露可能的未来中的尸体）与逆时针（回到当下）的横摇镜头、无头圣女的还魂与尸骨复原，还有高潮时对老马丁[基督最后的诱惑]的效仿致敬。摄影和色彩叙事都可圈可点。180度倒转的镜头、恍若深井的床榻俯拍、误食致幻蘑菇+目击山中巨人群的场面让人眼前一亮，小狐狸很可爱。艾丽西亚·维坎德的一人分饰两角与人偶戏里的[高文爵士与绿衣骑士]（注意那个转盘）别有意味。幻梦中抽出绿色腰带之时契如刨出罪恶之蛇。PS：影片中最让人不寒而栗的还是巴里·基奥恩演的Scavenger一角，秒速穿越回[圣鹿之死]。（8.0/10）
低于预期，对大卫洛维有点失望，故事太简单，叙事有点古板，只有精美的画面能看看。
6.5 一则寓言故事，骑士的试炼。考验意志，品质，德行。开放结局留白，视听俱佳。美学风格独特，阴郁的氛围提升电影气质，节奏有点过于冗长，有精美外壳但无实质内核。
我完全沉浸在中世纪氛围里出不来 看的过程中是非常专注肃穆的虽然故事的叙述其实让人有点云里雾里 但还是非常享受这种感觉
导演运用了很多视觉上的小心思去诠释这样一个叙事诗的题材，和鬼魅浮生一样，整体调性过于装腔作势，使得虚伪骑士毁灭过程流于表面。
美术就值4星了。画面，配色，构图，真的好。
6/10。将诺奖作家的骨灰带回故土，棺材当作牌桌、百姓吃瓜憋笑，像更私人的《杰出公民》。后半段黑白转彩色，皮兰德娄的遗作《钉子》，完成双重告别。一阵海风带走剩余的骨灰，真温柔。并不了解这对导演兄弟，所以无感弟弟与哥哥漫长的告别。
儿童，宠物，童话，降智的永远在抢夺路上的反派，嗯套路雷同也就算了，但是演的真的有点差啊，演技呢演技。。。
开场事件不错，结果那一年居然直接就用字幕卡略去了，叙事大硬伤…… 主角在凡间的那一年时光对解释人物动机可以起到很大作用，至少应占据半小时篇幅，尤其结合结尾想表达的主题来看更是如此。
against the world, and there's me, and there's you.
3.7分。
甚是唏嘘，而这类宏大叙事的作品，要很具备实力的编导才能实现，虽未能十分满意，导演以90的高龄，还是能运用音乐和画面的牵引下，观众被卷入一种深层的悲伤。
绿🌲骑士在他颈上轻轻一划，一个高尚的骑士灵魂由此诞生。
人生就是一场游戏，里面有各种羁绊（亲，友，情…），更有各种奖励（性，爱，权，名…），还有各种风险（欺骗，死亡，欲望…），而每个人在出生时都签订了一个契约，这个契约的内容是：我给你生，你还我命，中间是给你的时间——一生，请你准备好，到时还命给我…无需担心死亡，你死后必定绿意盎然……——绿衣骑士致上

三星半。电影的大部分时间被刻意放缓而有一种凝视的幽深，戏剧性的冒险由此成为一场反戏剧的漫游，也成为电影被诟病不好看最直接的原因。但360°横摇在空间中重构时间完成的“白骨观”，和高潮段落高文回乡的想象，又将时间陡然加速，像转动木偶戏象征四季的轮盘，在时间的卷曲变形中将玄虚诡谲的氛围拉满。还是好看的。片尾要听完，有彩蛋。
