Alex de Renzy (FEMMES DE SADE, PRETTY PEACHES) was one of the greatest directors of adult films ever, his career starting in the late 60's and preceeding well into the 90's. So saying that BABY FACE, stands as his crowning achievement is no small praise. This ranks as one skinflick that truly has it all, a complete storyline, fine production, and a couple of decent acting performances and some of the hottest sex scenes ever assembled in a single movie.
Big, lumbering Dan Roberts stars as the hapless construction worker who has to go into hiding following his seduction of underage but willing Priscilla (Lyn Cuddles Malone) which incurs the wrath of her religious fanatic of a man. After a near-fatal accident leaves him unconsciously drifting in the bay, he is saved by fan favorites Amber Hunt (FIONA ON FIRE) and Linda Wong (SWEET CAKES) who clean him up and then some. Hunt comes up with the brilliant idea of taking him to the Training Camp, a brothel catering exclusively for rich women and run by her aunt, affectionately referred to as the Champ.
This fancy cathouse provides the perfect backdrop for the movie's myriad sexual situations, nearly all of them handled with great style and enthusiasm by cast and filmmaker alike, shot through with a wickedly subversive humor. Standout scenes include gentle giant Roberts tender initiation of the eager Malone, their contrast in size providing an instant thrill all by itself, and the late great Kristine Heller taking on pretty much all the guys present in what has to stand as the single greatest gang bang sequence ever committed to film or video.
视效和美指无可挑剔，故事和节奏无fuck可说
本来还在琢磨为啥把背景铺垫得如此详尽，甚至到能说冗长的地步。突然灵光一闪—我看你个陀螺就是单纯想拍马戏团！(当然确实也很适合拍
但两者偏偏凑到一起，以至于两个半小时的片长似乎依然没找到好的着力点，浅白平淡之余让人直呼可惜……
陀螺的电影美学一如既往的无可挑剔完美至极，不知道是不是太沉溺其中马戏团部分拍得过美过长，即使已经是离谱的150分钟后面依然来不及好好讲了，故事剧情人物塑造全崩了。不忍给差评，拍得真的太美。
大魔王演精明女就像汤姆汉克斯一样已经没有波澜了……
前情有必要交代，但确实不必拖得太长。陀螺可能是想找个机会展示自己的freak show美学——马戏团的帐篷和诡异陈设令人联想到魏玛时期表现主义经典之作《卡里加里博士的小屋》。当陀螺沉迷于此时，批判与猎奇的分野则趋于暧昧模糊。
P.S.很可惜的是因为明天要上班，片子分成两部分看完了
cooper还不错，Cate Blanchett气场强大，吉尔莫托罗得影片画面总是很唯美，那迷人的血红，耀眼的金黄，就像是腐蚀男人心智的贪婪，最后归于宿命。Cate Blanchett太厉害，无论是何种面孔都能令人产生错觉，碾压了同场的Cooper，不过故事没有期待中的那么奇情，于是有点意犹未尽。
假作真时真亦假，无为有处有还无。我能说，某音剪辑的解说版，比电影全集更精炼紧凑和有重点吗
失败！！！
Cooper演得太棒了。
没看过原版 但黑白版效果拔群 演员阵容也太惊人了 光影运用也是精妙 很多抽烟点燃火柴的光源 人物初登场头顶灯 面部全黑的打光 极为舒适 还有摊牌阶段的眼部打光 镜头方面 最开始Lilith和Stan室内那场戏 镜头语言超级细腻 Lilith的过肩镜头 显得Lilith更渺小 问到法官时 权力调转 Stan变成了过肩 影片开场就是以人还是野兽这个疑问开始 当人类想充当上帝 改变他人命运时 却忘记自己也在那宿命之中 当然源起于欲望 Stan的“Never”就像是想避免一切跟父亲的联系 然而他却没有逃脱自己的宿命【PCC - Oscar Nominees】
欲望和自傲在引诱着你 绝不能向邪恶的欲望和自傲屈服
（p.s. 前半和后半割裂到像两部电影）
卡罗尔后大魔王&鲁尼玛拉终于合作了可惜没有对手戏
这种暗黑风格很容易让人迷幻，前半截稍微有些拖沓，但故事完成度很高，想来也是如此，人到了此处，自然就会迷失，塔罗预言一般。
3.5
感觉片子的节奏还是挺稳的，只是有些场景我是觉得真的惊悚。
这里有两部电影，第一部展示个人趣味，第二部完成情节任务。
怎么说呢，陀螺拍非幻想类题材的电影的成功率与他能否克制住自己的恶趣味正相关。如果马戏团的部分稍稍克制些，成片会好很多。
