Lois Ames is devoted to her job as the editor of a magazine, and her wealthy husband Fred is equally dedicated to polo and parties. Lois's long hours drive her secretary to quit, and she replaces her with Tom Sheridan, who happens to be in the office demonstrating a rowing machine. Tom likes the work and continues to advance until he is indispensable to Lois. Ruth Holman, Tom's fiancée, is jealous of Tom's relationship with Lois and with some reason, as he is falling in love with her. In the meantime, Fred is having an affair with Ann Le Maire, a woman whose interests are closer to his own. Because he feels his love for Lois is hopeless, Tom quits his job and plans his marriage to Ruth. Lois tries to patch things up with Fred, but he suggests that they divorce instead. On Tom's last night, Lois keeps him working late. Ruth is furious and storms up to the office where Lois and Tom are dining. She threatens to tell Lois's husband about their relationship, which leaves the way clear for Lois to announce her pending divorce. Ruth breaks off her engagement to Tom, and he immediately asks Lois to marry him.
原本对喜剧片兴趣一般,因为《大众情人》改观了,凯·弗朗西斯,大卫·曼纳斯和对手戏演员化学反应很好,互动自然。
剧情逻辑漏洞多到让人无语。角色们一会儿聪明绝顶一会儿又智商归零,完全是为了推进剧情而服务,没有任何人物性格的连贯性。最让人受不了的是,明明有更合理更简单的解决方案,角色偏偏要选择最离谱的那条路,强行制造矛盾冲突。这种降低角色智商来推进剧情的方式,是对观众智力的不尊重。
《大众情人》的选角很成功,凯·弗朗西斯,大卫·曼纳斯与角色气质贴合,表演状态稳定,是作品质量的重要保障。
《大众情人》在同类喜剧片里属于“口碑型”作品,可能不是最炸场,但最经看,推荐给喜欢细品的观众。
这部喜剧片的画面真是太美了,每一帧都可以截图当壁纸。导演和摄影师在光影的运用上达到了极致,无论是自然光的柔和还是人造光的戏剧性,都被运用得恰到好处。色调的选择也非常讲究,冷暖色调的对比不仅好看,更在叙事上起到了情绪引导的作用。特别是几场夜景戏,暗部细节保留得非常完整,没有死黑也没有过曝,这种技术水准让人不得不佩服制作团队的专业程度。
