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.
让我想到了福柯的训诫与惩罚，但文艺性不如拉斯冯提尔
可能我对算牌也没啥兴趣
看评价好像比较两级，但我好喜欢啊。电影的气质非常迷人，从开头就被吸引了，内核还是ptsd反战那一套，但故事营造的氛围和节奏非常好。监狱片段用广角展现有巧思。配乐爱了，我要去找原声了。伊萨克最近出镜率比较高啊，之前一直没get到他，在这部里好像对味了。
很古早味的气质，施拉德老爷子一贯喜欢讲的故事
看完唱起那首歌：万万没想到，万万没想到啊~
“He can recognize the Transcendent,he can study those methods which brought him to that realization,but that actual ‘why’of that realization is a mystery.”
主要故事已经和算牌没什么关系了。ptsd和复仇、赌博都能搞得这么丧，这么各讲各的，也是服了。故事非常融不到一起去，出不来象征，尺度也不够，元素硬堆。最奇怪的不是为一个莫名其妙的男孩复仇，而是莫名其妙和女金主恋爱上床了。虽然细思之下，莫名其妙的地方也非常之多。情节推动之缓慢，本来以为会有《出租车司机》似的最后会来个比如赌神大招，结果不赌了。真是莫名其妙。
几乎承载理性的固定镜头：只横摇，推轨时景别却不变，变焦时聚焦主体又不动。以及，奇观的3D样的鱼眼长镜头。
就，看到最后二三十分钟前其实都还不错，结尾拍的太空了（？就让整部电影显得有点弱智起来……
4.5 / 第一部施拉德。粗俗如我只在本片 get 到了伊萨克的肉体，所以，肉欲爆棚却演这么个冷淡阴沉的角色太违和了。而且凡梦境就用 VR 镜头展现，莫不是施拉德拜了毕赣为师？戴上眼镜才能身临其境罢了。
想起了PTA的赌城纵横，故事简单却处处透着作者的气息。情节没那么复杂算计，也没有浮夸的爱恨纠葛，有的只是一个祈求宽恕的男人。最好的一点还在于不煽情。
关塔那摩跟打扑克有什么练习？ 心灵创伤强行打开方式
如果中间我没有因为疲惫而睡过去，我可能会更喜欢
配乐是真好听
两块磁铁没有吸到一起啊 因果殊途不能同归 奥斯卡还能接这样的片子？ 老马丁制片人也不行啊
看到监狱的部分有惊喜，但和算牌始终有点割裂，如果只讲虐囚会不会好一些？
就像男主光着身子坐在桌前，却穿戴整齐躺在床上。赌博者和监狱虐囚两个主题穿插得满是违和感，让作为观者的我感到情绪被切割成很多块，无法拼装。
+。想不到是在讲阿布格莱布和自我救赎。最爱的点在于，秩序与失序两个极端之间，还有一个流动的世界。
出租車司機變成了玩牌高手，失足少女變成了暴躁少年。主角對於救贖的認知和執行真是很上世紀的浪漫了。愛情線讓我滿頭問號。奧斯卡，好辣好辣。
比我预想的“水进戛纳主竞赛的大俗片”要好很多，甚至有一度想给四星，两个漂浮在水面上不了岸的人相拥沉湖，他们还是没有放过自己，轻轻点出关塔那摩虐囚事件，赢牌的每声“USA!”都讽刺的有些刺耳
