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.

如果喜欢《社交网络》，那么这部片子肯定对你的胃口。
在大选的时节看很应景。这么大的信息量，能有条不紊的呈现出来，了不起！全片演员的表演方式跟片子喜剧类型元素很贴合，有趣但不会过于戏谑。🤩🤩🤩看到些评论真让人上火，与其担心索金是不是更左，不如担心自己工作KPI有没有完成惹。
有笑料，有讽刺，混乱又有条理，法庭上还有很亮眼的台词。本来给个四星，不过冲着国内想拍也拍不出来，特意给五星。
好莱坞最会写对白的索金拍了部“腔林弹语”的法庭戏，无异于天才的厨子烹饪天上的食材，精致的有些过分，都不带缓儿的。前因后果交互递进，庭里庭外应接不暇，话里话外明枪暗涌。面对不公，没有斗士会孤立无援，因为全世界都在看。这话也代表了好电影该有的威力

请 Netflix 讲中国的故事，讲我们自己不能讲的故事
我记着这个导演了，以后要躲开，他的社交网络和乔布斯我也是看了一会儿就受不了关掉了。扑面而来的对话，自嗨的快速剪辑，看起来太累了，还不如影评好看。
“民主”“审判”“自由”“反战”
也许是鄙人经历过1980年代末期的各种运动思潮，对于游行抗争有直面的感受。
……索金这几年，输出比输出形式变得重要了。人物塑造硬得不行，薄如纸。
一边酒精计划一边看，困在时间里的美国老父亲，不想看家里七君子造反，只想收割来自韩国的有钱水芹菜和赖在无依之地上依依不舍的中国富二代~

情绪是在的，也理应被调动，但并不是每次站起来都要配乐慷慨激昂一番的，Sorkin做导演就有点太陶醉自己了，以至于我反而想看个纪录片冷静冷静。
没有修正，就不会改变。

The whole world is watching. 极具煽动性的民主党竞选利器。但是有意思的是，隐藏在后面代表了美国民众的陪审团，最终还是判了他们有罪。我甚至怀疑这个法官是忠装反了。
建议收录入学生必看电影。剧本没得说，节奏和结构都很精美；点面结合，比如那个兄弟会意图强奸示威女生的点，我这个女性观众的注意力已经被点燃了。矛盾也安排得很妙，明线是政府，暗线是两个不同的左派。审判结尾不是很燃的反抗“fuck you”，而是最偏激的嬉皮士冷静的诉说着保守宗教的道理，以及回归本心地念失去生命的士兵名字，没有为了爽而流于表面，回归了做个人都能理解的“肯定个人价值和尊严”这一人道主义思想上，可惜保守观众早就被前面的表达赶走了，留下观影的只剩沮丧的进步派。片尾的字幕把五年牢狱说得很轻松，还是肯定了美国的体制。感觉主角们还是很幸运，因为他们从来都不会因为政府的轻蔑而自厌，认可他们价值的来源不会因为政府的轻蔑而消失，我觉得社会能做到这点就算踏入可以活的门槛了。
