Looking for Mr. Goodbar1977
To her father, Theresa was a dutiful daughter. To the children she taught, Theresa brought warmth and hope. To the men she met in bars, Theresa was easy. All kinds of people loved Theresa. Diane Keaton plays Theresa in Looking for Mr. Goodbar.
A short, unhappy affair with a married man leads a dedicated schoolteacher into the alcohol-and-drug fueled underworld of singles’ bars, where she begins to engage in a pattern of dangerous sexual activity.

In Looking for Mr Goodbar, writer-director Richard Brooks manifests his ability to catch accurately both the tone and subtlety of characters in the most repellant environments - in this case the desperate search for personal identity in the dreary and self-defeating world of compulsive sex and dope. Diane Keaton's performance as the good/bad girl is excellent.
黛安·基顿职业生涯中最大胆最出格最异类的作品，也是她最好的表演之一，与《安妮·霍尔》同年上映，两部作品构成差异鲜明的阴阳两面。电影本身也在塑造一个“天使与魔鬼”特质兼容于一身的新女性形象，白天她是和蔼可亲的聋哑学校教师，晚上则是融入暗夜的放荡女郎。非常意识流的剪辑与私密幻想场景，让这部影片似乎更贴近女性电影的表达手法，但情色、惊悚、伦理元素的混入让整部影片看起来不伦不类，很多桥段都过于冗余。
Only Diane Keaton's performance counters the overall heavy-handedness.
