In a complex tale of interweaving relationships, a Greek immigrant in London explores the meaning of what it is to love and heal. Poised follows the story of Aris, a gay Occupational Therapist who carries the weight of a previous relationship gone wrong. Yet, a chance encounter with Richard seems to allow him the chance to love again. As Aris' relationship with Richard deepens, so too does his friendship with Anna, a patient in his care who suffers from a rare neurological syndrome that leaves her paralysed. Anna recovers the use of her limbs, but finds that she has come to rely on Aris for much more than just his support. In fact, her discovery that her husband has been unfaithful during her illness triggers the realisation that her feelings for Aris are romantic. The ties that bind emotion and propriety begin to unravel, and the tangled net that is woven will hold a secret that will catch them all. 东厂西厂锦衣卫的电影有哪些在英国小镇韦瑟比,琼组织了一次聚会,一位奇特的不请自来的青年被奉为上宾。第二天,这位不速之客又来了,在琼的面前开枪自杀而亡。案件对小镇震动很大。不久,真相大白于天下。原来那晚,这位失恋的青年在与琼发生关系后,又遭到琼的拒绝,痛苦之极走上不归路。 本片是导演的低成本处女作,反映了他对人性的看法:平静下面潜藏着邪恶和欺诈,孤独时只能以扭曲的方式解脱自己。人们循规蹈矩地生活.直至陌生人暴力自杀,才给他们带来震动,这暗示了英国社会的等级及教育制度是人们反复无常的心理根源。影片表现了人的行为,以及人们产生这种行为的社会根源。本片具有深刻的思想性。反传统的表现手法使其有很强的艺术观赏性。本片获得1985年柏林电影节最佳故事片金熊奖。
