Fernando Di Leo's "Milano Calibro 9" is an out-and-out masterpiece of Italian Crime cinema and, in my opinion, one of the most astonishing crime stories ever told. The first film in Di Leo's excellent 'Milieu' trilogy, "Milano Calibro 9" was followed by "La Mala Ordina" (aka. "Manhunt", also 1972) and the brilliant "Il Boss" (1973). The three films are not connected story-wise, but all three are excellent, and highly realistic portrayals of organized crime. As far as I am concerned "Manhunt" is (allthough excellent) slightly inferior to this one and "Il Boss" which both stand out as absolute all-time highlights of crime cinema. "Milano Calibro 9" is the best of them all, a film that is astonishing in all aspects, be it the ingenious plot that, apart from a compelling story and clever twists, includes social criticism, the performances, the gritty atmosphere and suspense or the brilliant score. I can hardly find the right words to express my admiration for this masterpiece which easily ranks among the greatest Gangster flicks ever brought to screen.
Gastone Moschin stars as Ugo Piazza, a tough and elliptical ex-convict who has just been released from prison. Immediately after his release, Ugo is approached by members of the Milan mob lead by the irascible gangster Rocco (Mario Adorf), as they suspect him to be responsible for the disappearance of a large sum of money belonging to their boss, an American (Lionel Stander) who controls the organized crime in Milan...
"Milano Calibro 9" is a film that delivers an astonishingly realistic mood of the underworld like hardly another. The intriguing storyline goes in hand with interesting characters, raw atmosphere, suspense and breathtaking action, social criticism and brutal violence. The film is simply stunning from the beginning to the end, which is even intensified by the brilliant score, a collaboration of the famous composer Luis Enríquez Bacalov and the Italian Progressive Rock band Osanna. Ugo Piazza must be one of the most charismatic gangster characters ever in cinema, and Gastone Moschin was the prefect choice for the role. Moschin delivers a brilliant performance, and the rest of the cast is also great. Mario Adorf is irascible like a rabid dog as the ferocious gangster Rocco, a role that fits him like a glove. The great Lionel Stander fits perfectly in his role of the American Mafia Don.
The two cop characters in the film are played by two of the greatest regulars of Italian genre-cinema, Luigi Pistilli and Frank Wolff (who committed suicide before the film was released). The ravishing Barbara Bouchet is astonishing and incredibly sexy in the role of Ugo Piazza's stripper girlfriend. Bouchet is both a stunning beauty and an excellent actress and this is doubtlessly one of her most memorable roles. This is also a political film and director Di Leo embedded a lot of social criticism about topics like corruption. This film simply has everything one can possibly desire in cinema. Films like "Milano Calibro 9" are the reason why I love cinema. This is an absolute masterpiece in all regards and, without exaggeration, one of the greatest Crime flicks ever made! The ingenious opening scene alone is more memorable than most films get in two hours.
小说看了个开头，还是忍不住先把电影看了。虽然也只能看英文的翻译，但还是不太喜欢把一个意大利语的故事改编成英文故事。虽然这下完全被剧透了，而且估计之后看书的时候，每个人物都会浮现出稍微错位的形象，至少在目前看来，我本来想象中的那个那不勒斯家庭是更肥胖和粗俗的。但电影的好处是把情绪放大，立体鲜明，那种焦灼和撕扯，让人想要逃离电影却又被牢牢吸引。
通过别人的生活在内心里拯救自己同时探讨女性的社会地位付出的代价虽然我觉得有点歪，剧中的男人都把女人当做玩物般，哪怕是电影院里的小孩，女人再凶横也抵不上男人的一句stop。女性深陷社会这泥潭，同病但不相怜，还好头顶还有片蓝天。
从这个角度刻画母亲真的真实且细腻，对性张力的拿捏也很到位，Maggie处女座GJ。整体故事还是太小了，叙事手法是不是非要营造这种几乎让人窒息的感觉其实也可以再想想。
是那种“明线、暗线和更暗线”交织在一起的片子，片名lost daugter其实指的是说出“小时候我也有一个娃娃”的那位（不直接剧透了）……同时也是那种没什么成型故事、靠人物本身来推动剧情吸引观众的片子，玛吉转型导演很惊艳，但还带着演员视角，这种片子真的不能拍太长，演员表演支撑不动冗余时长，举例来说达科特对着女主角抛空洞媚眼的特写镜头也太多了……
设置两组母女做对照是基本操作了，但一人孤身去外地游玩，被一大家子人包围这种惊悚片的桥段，在女性题材里则可能是首次尝试，这种氛围的营造也是本片最大的亮点。对片名的呼应处理的很自然，女儿的失踪、玩具的失踪、母亲的失踪串起了整个主线。就其表达的主题，个人还是倾向于表现身为人母的压力，否定人人都能成为好母亲的必然性。缺点一方面是生活琐事的力度不够，女主一系列行为还不够有说服力，另一方面就是节奏和对话的确很生硬，构图里面虚焦特别多，不成熟的感觉非常明显。
{★★☆} 叫做失踪的女儿，讲的其实是失格的母亲。强调失格对母亲造成的创伤，又对失格对孩子施加的影响避而不谈。我不是说这些做法都不对，不可以--但着墨精神体验的电影首先要让观众走进角色，Maggie Gyllenhaal眩晕的闪回和Leda古怪的行径都只让构思停留在空中楼阁。所有人都在夸奖Olivia Colman的演技，我坐在这一锅乱炖的粥跟前，一口都吃不下去。
实际感受7分，为导演＋一⭐
很深刻，联想到《无声告白》和国产女性电影《我的姐姐》，在身份认知和生活选择上，没有明确的答案只有当下的选择，而选择因其每个人的个性与追求等等因素而产生差异，所以之前我说就这？为什么不怎怎，这不是又压迫怎怎其实想来，在这部电影看完后会完全的羞愧，因为不管女性做了什么抉择，她都不会得到最终的“自由”，有的人就会像女主这样被记忆鞭策，被内心深处的自责鞭策，即使女儿们可能已经忘记，但是她没办法忘记，而正是有人知道割舍不下，所以做出牺牲而获得最后的心安理得，但同时她的其他方面被阉割了。说到社会对女性隐性的道德上的绑架其实抛妻弃子是不管男女都会被谴责的，但程度却不同，可对内心的谴责比如背包客比如管理员莱利，前者基本没展现对孩子的自责，而后者有所展现，只能说还是人各有异，导演在这也没有想要在这问题上批判谁
Walking deep into the sea of self. 我觉得最绝的地方就是女导演让观众直面一个事实：当一个被婚姻困住、被生育束缚的母亲，被问到在女儿三五岁的时候选择离开的感觉，她可以含着眼泪说It's amazing.
感觉像是为了表达女性在家庭责任与追求自我之间矛盾的心态？电影配乐，个人感觉总是不搭。
3.0，科尔曼的哭戏啊，令人怜惜又坚忍不拔，华语圈谁能比肩呢？如果可以把现时的情景设计得更精妙一些，影片或许会更成功，不要低估观众的共情力和思考能力，导演想讲的其实在现在的叙事中已经有所提现，过去的种种呈现显得太过刻意。云淡风轻但时而澎湃，就是我们对情感创伤和心路历程最贴切的抚慰和亲昵。
母职困境，选择是无比奢侈的存在，要用悔恨去换。
没啥意思。在中国这样的妈绝对不合格，别管你多大成就。还搞外遇，把俩孩子直接扔给老公和姥姥。
女性角度去讲所说的婚姻与家庭，但总感觉偏向平淡，可能就是想要这种风格吧
压抑的情绪加上悬疑的气氛让人如坐针毡，可能也是母亲内心最真实的刻画。
Olivia真美。社会规训没得跑，女性在这样的结构内究竟能如何，所谓“天然的爱”真的是规训意义大于本身的。但是我也会想，生育不养育，或者不生育，就能解决大部分问题吗？好像也不是，自己内心要怎么面对呢？生育吊诡如人生：不经历不知道里面的苦痛，经历了就无法回头。
3.5吧 非常适合犹豫是否要成为母亲的女性看 大概每个女性都会看到窒息 如果你为片中小孩的吵闹感到窒息 那你可能还不适合当妈妈 但如果你为片中母亲对待孩子的种种行为感到窒息 那你或许可以做好当母亲的心理准备 希望每个人都能在了解一切的基础上 自发自愿地选择是否成为母亲 承认自己不想当母亲没什么可耻 但确认自己愿意成为母亲也需要很多勇气 btw黑发美人们真的太好看了。
科尔曼的演技已经达到了如臻化境的地步，实在是看的赏心悦目！
this is some actual horror 另： Paul Mescal真的好帅🥺🥺🥺
爱是沉重的，生活是沉重的，回忆也是沉重的。为人父母更是沉重，或许人类的繁衍本身是最为沉重的吧
