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.
虽然我不是特喜欢这么美式的音乐，一开始觉得过于激情澎湃，但整部电影其实是在用激情澎湃的音乐来庆祝一个人在有限生命里获得的伟大成就。乔恩的作品很难说不是他燃烧生命创作的，为了创作伟大的作品他甘愿过着贫寒低下的生活，这样纯粹的生命值得用最滥情最激扬的音乐赞美。
加菲尔德演得还是挺用力的，可总觉得他还是《血战钢锯岭》中的样子，没法跳脱成音乐人。另外对原型人物Jon也没啥了解，不知他好在哪里，影片中的歌曲，说实话，没有一首好听的，都比较一般吧，难以让人感到共鸣。
能又唱又跳又表演的人都很酷 属于那种看一遍能浪漫一辈子的故事 加菲很棒 我心中2021的影帝 不要泄气 继续努力 希望每一个疯子的故事都能被展现出来 诱发更多精彩的疯子
这是一部让人心潮澎湃的电影！是一封写给音乐剧的情书！故事以闪回、以现实与音乐剧巧妙结合的方式推进，聚焦百老汇传奇剧作家乔拉森·拉尔森30岁前后的创作焦虑与人生困境，展现了他实现音乐梦想的无比执着和赤诚。Tick，Tick，Boom! 贯穿全片滴答作响的时针，营造了时光流逝男主年届三十一事无成的焦虑和压力，烘托了气氛。
看到好多音乐剧大佬的客串。剪辑很好，音乐的表现力也挺有想法。加菲真的能唱，有点意外。
推荐给创作者打鸡血。需要注意的是避免借此自我感动，创作带来的意义应该来源于创作本身，即使广告亦然。
tick tick boom！被击中了，热泪盈眶。
用音乐剧的方式拍了一个音乐剧人物创作音乐剧的过程，电影呈现出非常有层次感的叙事，刻意加快节奏，切换视角都很好营造出主人公的生活状态以及心境。影片不乏魅力与动人的瞬间，但整体并没有深入到我内心，无论是音乐部分还是传记部分。加菲演的无可挑剔，但又让我产生换作他人会不会更不同的念头，虽然奔着冲奥去的品质，在我这里没有很喜欢。
作为音乐剧爱好者 我可太喜欢这部剧了I am allowing myself to be led by love 那种快乐的忧伤的 可以让人飞起来的感觉 享受和沉浸在所有感官里 这就是音乐剧带来的美妙❤️
与lalaland遥相呼应；导演对“舞台”的掌控力一流；加菲 is soooo underrated（心目中最佳还是Angels in American，神级本子和制作，加菲也奉献了无与伦比的表演！）
当然，关于这种有所执着，有所梦想的坚持，如若能代入于观众的语境，那必然是很好的，只可惜主角身边一群艾滋患者，也让我试图代入主角时心有戚戚。
over and over
百感交集。对宽街和NYC的爱，林漫威永远能表达得到位。Rent是在我刚到纽约的第二个月结束了长达12年的演出，很遗憾没能看到。但教授和房东都安利过，加上看了各种视频，所以四舍五入就算看过了，当然影片中并没有太多关于Rent的着墨，而聚焦于Jonathan Larson。剧情节奏把握得很好，一直都有秒针在倒数的感觉。创作，生活，恋爱，哪一件事又不是在倒数呢？明天随时可能失去一切，唯有当下必须抓住。
非常典型的美国电影，前半部分代入感不强，后半部分渐入佳境。乔恩的努力、挣扎、死亡、成功，都归于一个词，无常。最近读关于阿德勒的心理学，很有感触，你的课题只是把每一天过好，每一天的舞蹈跳好，照佛学讲的“无常”二字，眷恋过去，远眺未来，都是愚蠢。
音乐好听，主演的代入感不够，始终没有全景。最后的感动还是很让我泪目了。
其实中后段有点撑不起来，最终要将的不是很清晰，你到底要讲的是个人还是时代，没有掰扯好来，一直摇摆不定，最后的收尾，也比较一般，好就好在形式上让人眼前一亮，加菲这次也撑得起来。
但是我能感觉到电影作者的热情...我觉得能有这种力量也很棒，所以这一个星多给的就是这种，坚持下去发出声音的勇气和力量。
米兰达也许会拍一部只在舞台上演出的音乐剧，但他并不会拍电影，影像不是音乐、独白、台词的补充，MV都不至于如此。更别提那些政治正确的符号，实在差劲。还是看看斯皮尔伯格的《西区故事》会拍成什么样吧。
作为一部musical，music不好是原罪
原来美国人也会为了30岁这道坎而焦虑，在哪都逃不掉的30岁。。。暴风女好看死了，笑容好暖好治愈～评论里这么多种族歧视的省省吧，天天把zzzq挂嘴边喷黑人演员烦不烦。
