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.
一个人如果去过监狱，他会不会一直想要重新回去？这个电影里，到底谁在控制谁？是Tell在破事Cirk跟着他旅行，还是Cirk在一直令Tell想起过去并执行了最终的计划？一个被美军系统“囚禁”的人，讽刺地与高喊“USA”的人出现在同一张牌桌很多次。中间有些片段其实很想让人睡着，大段的内心独白有时候让人不明就里
关于救赎的故事，赌场只是背景，预告片和正片是两部电影。
玩玩牌，做做噩梦，写写回忆录，后半辈子就这样过吧。影像一如既往地冷漠疏离，只是这次疏得有点远。
就像男主光着身子坐在桌前，却穿戴整齐躺在床上。赌博者和监狱虐囚两个主题穿插得满是违和感，让作为观者的我感到情绪被切割成很多块，无法拼装。
Wosp 里没人在乎你是谁，只在乎你的手腕上有没有金手链～
无法理解这种电影在拍什么也很难理解我为什么要浪费两个小时来看这种伪赌博下的慢叙事。will的内心戏极其丰富，奥斯卡依萨克的表演特别稳，又帅又迷人。算牌人的自我救赎和轮回境遇，最后就如同开始的一脸疑惑和最后的一脸困惑一样他们对视。
有神秘感，好演员。让观众能够跟随电影的情节。ptsd很可怕，参与其中的每个人都是受害者。
替罪羊之无聊误打误撞学会算牌的帅气背头大叔。
这苦闷下要迸发出来的能量 镜头声音节奏都喜欢。我有点儿觉得i feel you 这想法又莫名可笑。
7.5 施拉德赋予的独特气质，使其不同于其他美国电影。
很古早味的气质，施拉德老爷子一贯喜欢讲的故事
施拉德是一位优秀的编剧 但不是优秀的导演 剧情太散且闷… 广角监狱那段是唯一亮点 ？
基调和质感很不错 犯罪惊悚这个类型并不少见 人物很立体矛盾很合理 但这些优点随着剧情的推进慢慢的不见了 故事开始变得夸张浮躁 甚至在赌场中的镜头和气氛也变得很诡异男女感情戏也是没有任何作用 又是浪费脚本演员的典范
喜欢开头和梦魇的段落，但还是是希望施拉德勇敢一点。总感觉他像布列松乖巧的徒弟。
相互救赎连连碰，充斥着强烈的沉稳孤独浪漫压迫感。
新黑色电影与赌片杂糅，鱼眼广角下的战争创伤与幽闭恐惧直直展现在眼前。
仍能看到些美国电影的旧日荣光，当然不觉得足以和Taxi Driver相提并论，详细不展开了。期待施拉德还会与斯科塞斯合体搞创作，不是老马挂个制片名头的这种。
累。。PTSD赏析，看完累到不想写影评。。
7.2冷静克制的描述虐囚丑闻，威廉的戏太少，演技无从发挥
打牌的剧情和关于美军酷刑的剧情可以说是毫无关系了。配乐蛮好听
