无相劫

这是斯坦利·库布里克的第一部故事片。剧本出自他的高中同学、诗人Howard Sackler之手，拍摄资金也是库布里克自己筹措，大部分是向父亲、叔叔和朋友们借的。这部作品和库布里克以后的影片一样充满了超现实主义象征性，因此只有一家艺术片商愿意发行和放映，而库布里克认为此片只是一部实习作品，他只答应私下放映，并多次想将拷贝销毁。尽管如此，本片还是赢得了一些评论家的好评，尤其是在摄影方面。

With realistic acumen and artistic expertise, ADIEU LACAN portrays the struggles of a young woman, Seriema, who is trying to understand why her path to motherhood has reached an unbearable impasse. Following two miscarriages and the possible loss of her marriage, Seriema travels to Paris in 1972 to undergo psychoanalytic treatment with the maverick French analyst, Jacques Lacan. Her analysis is an attempt to help her to disentangle the enigma of her question: why has motherhood become a seeming impossibility? Inspired by the story of Betty Milan, a Brazilian psychoanalyst and writer, it follows closely her own actual psychoanalysis with Lacan. Based on her play "Goodbye, Doctor" and her novel "Lacan's Parrot," in which Milan recounts her analytic work, ADIEU LACAN offers an insightful and accurate account of an actual psychoanalytic cure.—Mavis Himes
