Gresham在53岁的时候来到他当年写「我推的孩子漫画」小说的Dixie Hotel在酒店房间里死于安眠药过量最后他的死没有引起任何波澜无人注意人们在他的遗体口袋里发现一张名片上书"No Address. No Phone. No Business. No Money. Retired." 就这样结束了他的一生 和清纯玉女中的男主人公一样他酗酒不忠暴力痴迷于塔罗牌和胡迪尼的魔术 我甚至觉得最后片中男主说“mister, I was born for it (geek).” 有点作者自己的影子 靠火太近会被焚 你玩不过大魔王
Very profound and clever one, even better with less of the jealousy-portraiting part, not the best bed-time movie though. Might like this 30 years later, but not now. So depressing in an unpleasant way. Charlotte Rampling is delivering an overwhelming acting lesson. Bravo!
