回复 :This film is an extremely entertaining psychological thriller with Carrol Baker excellent as a rich American widow getting away from it all at a secluded Italian villa. Enter smart aleck down on his luck playboy, Lou Castel, who has some golddigging motives behind his slick hipster seduction techniques and has no qualms about how he gets what he wants. He encourages Baker's character's incipient alcoholism and dubious self-esteem, brings in his supposed 'sister' to help drag Baker even further into a maze of sick mind games, drug addiction and group sex, all culminating in a descent into near-madness and self-destructive depravity.I won't give away anymore, suffice to say that the film delivers on its swinging sixties, Euro sleaze ambience and psychological suspense thriller credentials in spades. Director Umberto Lenzi's work has been, at best, uneven and he's churned out his share of crap. However, he made some quite good giallos and crime pictures in the sixties and seventies and this is one of them (other good films by Lenzi -- SPASMO, SEVEN BLOODSTAINED ORCHIDS, ASSAULT WITH A DEADLY WEAPON, to name only a few).Unfortunately this film is ofen confused with another okay but not-quite-as-good Lenzi film that was also released briefly here in America under the same PARANOIA title (but is more commonly known, especially on video, as A QUIET PLACE TO KILL).

回复 :2001年9月11日，震惊世界且影响深远的“9·11事件”爆发。双子塔岿然垮塌，似乎预示着一个黑暗时代的到来。在此之后，法国Studio Canal电影公司迅速做出反应，邀请了11名享誉海内外的导演和演员分别执导了每部时长为11分钟09秒01帧的短片，最终汇集成这部思想独特、尖锐深刻的短片集。在他们的镜头中，有的饱受战争、饥馑、灾害的人们感同身受发起了悼念；有的则或戏谑或愤怒或尖锐批判着美国的霸权主义；有的以寓言的形式解析着“圣战”的含义；有的则俯身聚焦小人物的生活琐事与喜怒哀乐。那改变世界的瞬间，震撼着每一个人的心…… 本片荣获2002年威尼斯电影节国际影评人费比西奖最佳短片奖（Ken Loach导演部分）以及联合国教科文组织大奖。
