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.
世道那么污浊，不如研究一些通透之物。可能对于个人来说确实是最好的选择，但我实在是忍不住要想，如此这般，那些受尽苦难的人要怎么办呀。不过片中好奇开放的态度还是挺好的。
引进西方科学没问题，宣扬天主宗教就是傻逼。
韩国是有这样的人物，然后可以强。日本明治维新时亦有这样的大人。吾国是有曾、李，谭、梁，孙文乃至于毛泽东。想到张香帅建汉阳兵工厂，而“汉阳造”为武昌首义打响了第一枪，正是影片里在海水中可重现墨迹的乌贼墨水，是海胆里飞出的青鸟，是“星星之火，可以燎原”。
在能回想起来的近一年时间以来，触动最为深刻的电影。虽然对李朝几乎完全没有了解，但东亚的历史何其相似，加上故事也讲得很清晰，再者最近正听到明代部分的政治文化史……老夫子急流勇退去格鱼，放弃打鱼的贱民还要往哪里去呢
和儒家治国、耶稣基督都没太大关系，不如说是用历史掌故包裹的知识分子困境，在“贱民去势”的情节中达到符号表达的高潮，以坚守书写至死作结，同时用人本、自然等等现代观念撑起价值观表达。看起来多少有些刻意，或许是不够精致。最让我触动的一幕是昌大看着滚动的星空，“脚踏实地，仰望星空”的康德箴言一秒具象，那是启蒙之时最初的感动。
朝鲜半岛这片土地及在它上面繁育的民族千百年积累下来的自我矛盾、认同的冲撞、无解与挣扎在这部电影里尽数体现。
前半段闲适，后半段悲悯。卞约汉的表现会更好一些。还是一个类型片的套路。
前半部几乎可以作为「苏轼儋州流放记」代餐，几乎平替！后半部男猪带领男二真潜心考察研究海岛生物百科，这倒像是「如果流放到儋州的人从苏轼换成苏颂会怎样」的AU了【然而转念一想，苏颂这样的大科学家根本不会被流放呀，人家正大光明拿着郭嘉经费在朝廷做天文仪器呀！】其实男猪虽然口口声声反对朱子性理学，但他在逆境中坚持「格物致知」倒也挺得朱子真传的。只不过看不过去的是，济世的理念和预设的崇高感似乎仅能在长幼男人身上传帮带，男人再怎么梦想「天下无王，不分贵贱」，他永远不会把平等的目光从广袤的宇宙苍生收回来，投到眼前的老婆女儿身上。东亚三国反儒反皇权的电影里女性是失声的，你反个XX
摄影确实很美，海边很多镜头都拍出了中文古诗的里的意境。除此之外，文本太弱了，想涉及的面很多，但都浅尝辄止，都只有浅表的内容，完全没有深入探讨，所以整部片子没法击中人心，只有距离之外的影像美而已。
吹不副实。用韩片惯有的插科打诨及暴虐冲动来加工《思悼》的厚重与苍凉，甚为无趣。
“兹”字的本字是“玆” 由两个“玄”字组成 代表黑色 这也是电影里丁若铨认为黑山不吉遂改为兹山的原因 没球用的冷知识+1
202105做好我们的选择。做一些微不足道的小事，自己拯救自己，就像我看园子写东西一样，未来或许有用也未可知。
如白鹤之生虽好，而兹山之污泥亦善也。在自己生活的时代有着超于世人的见解注定无法快乐。嫉妒这种本该由我们拍出拍好的电影被韩国抢先优秀的呈现出来了。

你讲多少次都掐不灭他想趟一回的欲望。
不得不承认韩国的文化经营真是有点恐怖，因为他们不光有夺人文化的强烈意志，还有着将源自中国的文化进行深加工并二次输出的惊人实力，看完这个也明白了国产影视在产业链上的缺漏和差距有多多多大。明知对方是鼠窃狗偷之辈，但偏偏身为嫡传正宗的自己就是没有拿的出手的文化作品去证明，只能靠民间的爱国热情去对抗，这真是很憋屈的啊。

中国其实这样的题材也是无数。反正韩国人拍也一样，抛开民族国家，都是东亚背景，这也是中华文化的反哺。我们还拍不出，是我们被主义搅的一片混乱。里面丁若全与其弟的通信，很有意思。一方面思考儒家文明的理想，对现实政治的监督和批判，而反复朗读的汉文，无不彰显儒家的信仰力量。二丁若全的鱼谱，又内含试图打通东西走向现代的启蒙之路。电影简单化的就是描绘官家，苛政猛于虎，酷吏加腐败，没有深入利弊。这点我们的大明王朝不比该片弱。
中西方的教派理论学识，都不会是至善至美，如何运用毕生所学，让这个世界变得更美好，才是最重要的。
儒学遍及东亚各国之后，韩国人以电影的形式探讨了千百年来中国人一直在探讨的出世与入世的辩证关系，除此之外，对于人获得知识的意义和精神世界的支点的讨论，是让这部电影主题整体变得丰满的关键一笔。
