Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
看完感觉自己也是个confident independent strong woman
感谢流媒体，both Apple TV+和b站，让我不花钱就能看到了现场还原。一波人来回切换角色，非常厉害，设计转场都不容易，语言信息多建议二刷，但更多是在陈述，歌曲的存在感真的不多了，群舞时候的氛围还是很好，被I am islander成功洗脑。另外，它可能本身对于美国人的意义要远大于我们，所以我还不能做到那么的共情。
还是那个永恒的难题：轻与重，你到底渴望怎样的人生？太重了当然想扔掉一切规则轻盈的飞上天，过一过云上的日子，太轻了又希望有稳稳的幸福，让脚步能踏实的走在大地上。于是很多关系，很多选择，就在生命里如钟摆晃来晃去，若即若离。
非常动感的歌舞片，各种障碍与解决障碍。在舞台上演绎，真的很精彩。
万恶的资本主义社会x行业已经成熟到兼具心理咨询功能了吗？
灾难片里主角以外的人都是炮灰，跑着跑着就被砸死在半路上。除此之外也有这样的故事在讲述每个平凡人在未知遭遇里的平凡细节。好好啊！gayest town in newfoundland！
欢快又充满力量的歌舞片，对人性有力的赞颂。虽然来自远方，但彼此没有距离。最后演奏家集体演奏的《Screech Out》真的太嗨了。
以为不可能发生的事情，被以为不可能的人性拯救一部分，虽然处处都有现实的痕迹，但是还是能让我们真正相信大爱。之前没看过音乐剧，先是演员调度和布景变化惊叹到我，再往后就被情绪感染，笑了很多次，哭了更多次。印象最深的是圣经的共同语言，和女机长提到最爱的事情被别人用搞破坏。
看的过程热泪盈眶，这就是原汁原味的百老汇歌剧的魅力。舞台表演永远最能接近艺术的本真，它的爆发力和感染力可能是电影都不能具备的。之前的《汉密尔顿》和《万尼亚舅舅》都制作了官摄版，如果没有疫情想必《来自远方》也不会诞生这个版本。至于表演，永远可以不用质疑歌剧演员的演技，他们超一流的群戏、走位、变装，这种舞台感已经说明了一切。棒！
拜托更多的宽街剧向cfa和ham看齐吧！（有生之年还能看到宽街版aia官摄吗🥺
明明网易云听了好几遍才来看的音乐剧，还是一开场就泪目。想起来地震后的很多，人与人之间的相互关爱，是世界上最美好的事。
性圣人真是可以，好的性爱的确能让人成长，但本片实在是过于套路了，彼此救赎来的分秒不差
find you pleasure and enjoy it❤️
没有宏大华美的布景，演员们都要分饰几角，所以舞台场景与角色转换做得相当精巧娴熟。基督徒、犹太教徒和牧斯林同时用各自旋律祈祷和声那段太动听了，还有回程时乘客过安检的慢镜头表演也是神来之笔。最后看到演员与真实人物的合影也非常感动
没有什么比真诚对待自己和别人更美好的事了，更没有什么比直面自己更勇敢的事了。
911二十周年，纽芬兰小岛上来自远方的人们，没什么记忆点的歌，女机长的solo曲最好听，剧情也就是传统鸡汤风格不太能打动内心，官摄拍得挺好的。
谁还想看男人“拯救”🐔，世界反过来了哥们。 ：)
所以在下次见面之前，希望我们都不要失去这个武器。
原来纽芬兰的英文是 Newfoundland，还真是简单直接呀
I'm an islander, and No Man Is An Island. 2021年的最后再来看依旧哭唧唧，依旧为这部作品所鼓舞，依旧最喜欢那首汇成同一个旋律的信仰之歌，我们如此不同却又如此相通。
