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.
茫茫荒漠是孤独感更可怕还是意外更可怕？！😂😂
都太老了，安度晚年吧，不要再拍了。而且还拍得那么拖沓
22.5.25下午，最近血糖不对劲儿，b犯叔
很不错的故事，演员也很棒，就是为什么评分这么低
————————————————————
很悲惨的结局，面对权钱相护最终只能以暴制暴。美国是多缺杀手啊，死活要雇一个70岁还老年痴呆先兆的人去杀人，完不成还不行，最后被一锅端了吧
《掘金》是一部不错的探宝类影片，虽然看过很多类似的电影，但我觉得，掘金还是拍出了不一样新意，比如大漠孤烟，困守于此的人类和动物、游走在罕无人迹的姐妹花等等，影片情节看似简单，却深刻的揭示了人性在财富面前，所显示的那种自私和贪婪。
剧情还可以，现实主义电影，但结局还是理想化了。没看过2003版，但可能是剧情所限，这部翻拍确实自带一些年代感。角色都比较接地气，也没有装神弄鬼的特效，总体来看没有特别需要在大荧幕欣赏的镜头，但回想起来倒颇有些返璞归真感。
连姆尼森大叔老了，打不动了，想影片中的角色一样，令人叹息。
分数：60
A colossal waste of time
2022年的第十四部。以暴制暴。不得不说美女莫妮卡.贝鲁奇确实老了。
整体剧情与比利时版冷面赤心，没有太大区别。唯一很大区别是，原版包庇儿子的反派比利时总理，最后因杀手留下的录音，被逮捕。而美版，莫妮卡贝鲁奇饰演的地产大亨，因为强大律师和金钱，杀手留下的证据没能令警方逮捕她。而她本人被警探的助手，私下里暗杀了。整体上，影片抛弃了原版阴暗，灰沉沉的摄影风格。转变为常见的好莱坞明亮风格。这也导致原版最大的优点，阴郁，压抑的风格，荡然无存。而原版，本来笨拙，较少的动作戏，马丁坎贝尔居然没有加以改进。导致原版的缺点在翻拍版被放大。所以，影片口碑很不理想。还有失忆男主连姆尼森与男二警探盖皮尔斯，谈话那段，瞬间出戏到记忆碎片。
想看看玛莱娜22年时的容颜，却被连姆连森的廉颇老矣击中，各种心酸难耐。唉，俺也过40了哦。
爱泼斯坦的真实故事如果要拍成电影 比这个要精彩太多了
很不错的故事，演员也很棒，就是为什么评分这么低
以后老连姆演杀手的片子可以直接pass了。
翻译注意点啊，这翻译的片名就错了，记忆救援
不杀小孩是很多杀手片奉行的宗旨，但良心发现这个必须有过程有张力的，不懂抄抄《这个杀手不太冷》嘛，是怎么营造这种氛围的？动作戏也差劲，反正没有一处场面调度是值得表扬的，反而是很多尴尬和无脑情节充斥。马丁坎贝尔连续两部都是怪趣味压倒了他之前的流畅和张力，和成龙合作那部《英伦决战》难道就是最后的绝唱了么？
3.5 营救系的连姆•尼森、疾速系的基努·里维斯、狩猎系的麦斯·米科尔森都在老去。。。
