貂女

　　Driving home late at night during a heavy rainstorm, Glen experiences car trouble. Near where his car gets stuck, he spots a house, knocks on the door and is greeted by an oddly friendly middle-aged man, Arthur, and his younger wife, Cyndi. The strange couple pours him a drink, and then more drinks, followed by an unexpected offer that Glen can’t refuse. Elsewhere, a young woman, Katie, is feeling emotionally weighed down by a secret romantic arrangement that feels like a textbook case of gaslighting. And at the same time, in a nondescript research facility, medical professional Julie begins questioning her role in a bizarre experiment, fearing that she’s doing more harm than good.

出于对年迈邻居艾尔西（布兰达·布莱斯饰）所获照料状况的厌恶，科琳（安德丽亚·瑞斯波罗格饰）主动提出免费提供帮助。在茶叙与艰难时刻中，尽管存在差异，两人成为了彼此信赖的知己。但科琳的意图可能并非表面所见。随着疑云渐起，一项骇人举动触发了一场暴力的连锁反应，势将无可挽回地改变这两位女性的生活。

 这部在歌舞片发展早期拍摄的影片，堪称是当时最为奢华的好莱坞巨制。影片由后来被誉为“爵士之王”的保罗·怀特曼领衔主演，还请到了一众歌舞名手。片中的内容取自百老汇的经典演出，通过名家和管弦乐队的出色演绎，为观众感受爵士年代风情提供了一次珍贵的机会。影片在当年获得了奥斯卡最佳艺术指导奖。2013年，它还被美国国会图书馆列入国家电影目录。
