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.
雖不盡完美，但傳記片是我的軟肋。揮別一個人，也是目送一個時代，種種天時地利人和，精神風骨氣象，可一不可再。
女主不太好看，就是身材很好。没想到最后真的只是朋友。另外，有点101次求婚的感觉。打发时间还是可以的
想想自己对香港影视娱乐圈几乎没有一点情怀，真是可怕，零零散散，没有所谓喜欢也没有不喜欢，这些前辈的离去，加剧了这种心情，拍下这些依旧令人敬佩。
改编的版本还是挺不错的，加入了族裔和家庭的元素，从选角上也避免了落入俗套的窠臼感——没人会磕起男女主的cp吧？只是女主外形不错，但演技实在是太差，且最后再强行来一个girl helps girl的情节显得有点楞。
好温馨好可爱好轻松好愉快，完全都是合家欢大俗套，但好人得好报拍的那么自然舒适，还是很棒
运气加天赋加努力的结果，不过看到张国荣演员还是很出戏耶。
还挺舒服的，没有硬要给他见识娱乐圈丰富物质什么的哈哈
7分-不单只是喜剧故事，墨西哥移民成为了这部改编电影的内核。底层工作的外乡人与好莱坞大明星之间产生感情本来就有些天荒夜谭，但是男主的演绎又让故事变得质朴，贴近现实。值得一看，满是积极味道的电影。
一直期待慶功宴那裡是不是會有人扮演杜琪峰和周星馳
于是，这么一盘2个半小时的加料再加料大杂烩端到了餐桌上。好在演员们的表演在线，节奏也还算相对流畅，要不然真吃坏肚子了。
『梅艳芳』1963～2003，将“百变天后”梅艳芳的一生讲了大半，主要的生平经历基本囊括，很容易被梅艳芳的各种事迹打动，也很明白的看到故事叙述的流程化，不少细节及情感不得深入，毕竟有好几位主要当事人仍健在，作为梅艳芳的传记电影确实不易拍，最让自己意难平的当属赵文卓那段的缺失，影片最后还原了梅艳芳最后一场演唱会，一首《夕阳之歌》一唱入魂。【7+1情怀分】
即便故事节奏不够感染人、演员锐气与演技有所不足，但是在如此作品中，仍能感受来自香港女儿梅艳芳的铮铮傲气并浓厚义气。她的人格魅力让属于她的时代、诞生她的香港，都显得熠熠生辉。
本来是一个非常俗气的仙女下凡的故事，但是充满了好多可爱又温情的细节，笑声不断，女性之间的互相体谅相互成就非常大气～舒舒服服的电影。
本来没有这么好，结尾和手撕渣男实在是太好了。girls help girls，yyds！女主演一开始让我觉得很塑料，到后面反而是很有质感，不作怪是真的很漂亮。
美版加了妈妈去逝的桥段，比较感人。但加上挪用公款入罪就有点狠了。😊
轻松的电影 不当情人，也可以当朋友 挺好，不尴尬
诺丁山式的爱情片，只不过更自立，更有性别与种族意识。偶尔看些这样的小品故事真的快乐，还有我是为了维文小姐姐的，真的是好看的时候真的好看啊！不太适合演太依靠表情的戏，，，
其实总体来说我还蛮喜欢，尤其是开头接儿子那一段，整体剧作也很符合商业片的调性，但没有亮点，而且这个电影在好些片段真的很tvc，女主被男主的家庭氛围感动的那一段，真的很拙劣……但总的来说，我愿意给7，没什么硬伤，而且男女主演意外的非常讨喜
挫折它想尽办法要我低头。
也许最令人不满意的还是张国荣的扮演。说句也许讨人厌的话，张国荣的戏份如果成功了，这电影分会加不少，即使它叫《梅艳芳》。不批评王丹妮，确实努力了，很多镜头看到了梅姑的样子，即使受限于外形，但有时的一颦一笑一眼神，对味了。编剧拖了一些后腿，既然是传记，那就得贴近现实本身，太多津津乐道的故事一个不小心就会被发现破绽，反而降低了电影的可信度。确实有感动的部分，如果再好一点就更好了。
