Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
窃听录音带是个关键,我觉得也是个bug,前面投过那么多次的信封,难道黑帮从没听出是假的吗?再说一个小小的裁缝店能录到什么秘密啊。
喜欢这种氛围感,剧本相当精彩。
CG不舒服。
很不错,全方位无死角的不错。
气质独特
独幕剧,非常jazz,剧本顺畅,这很学院派!
很不错,全方位无死角的不错。
除了几个演员真的演得很不错以外。。。没啥看点了。。。
22_069。男主角很厉害,虽然是他来控场,但完全不卑不亢大概这就叫演技吧。106分钟的时长很好,各种细节气氛感也棒
当编剧技法完全过时之后,只有范儿还能保留价值了
勾心斗角,尔虞我诈,螳螂捕蝉,黄雀在后。老头不简单,一手布局很不错,我还以为老头以前是间谍。这个风格神似盖里奇。
3.5 马克叔和丰叔(Yutaka Mizutani)有同一种异父异母双生儿般的优雅气质。对舞台感过重的电影总谈不上过分喜爱。
一出精彩的“舞台剧”。全靠男主像个漩涡,自始至终吸住所有悬念、妙处、爽感。其实也没多惊天动地,最终他真的只是一个裁缝,哦不,cutter,coupeur,揸fit人。
简单的场景,有限的空间,依靠大量对话来让剧情一波三折,显得非常的剧本杀。虽然收尾看上去仓促了些,按前半段来说还有不少可提升空间,但整体创意依然加分。
If you have done your job, all the true craftsmanship has already occurred. The finishing are mere inevitabilities.
不要讨好观众,谐星应该明白自己的水准在哪里。 真挚的师徒情。
你们知道在当今想象力无比匮乏的好莱坞,能有这么个精巧的剧本是有多不容易吗?何况还拍的这么有腔调。
近期看多了大成本粪作,难得看一部小空间小成本佳作,很不错,虽然剧本还不完全尽善尽美,但瑕不掩瑜,尤其是里朗斯,把扮猪吃老虎的裁缝,啊不,剪裁匠演绎到了极致
除了最后略有点血腥之外,整体都不错。在这么小的空间里把故事讲好,不免联想起《十二怒汉》和《这个男人来自地球》。
不要讨好观众,谐星应该明白自己的水准在哪里。 真挚的师徒情。
