剧情简介
Robert Tucker, a sorrowful, solitary man, given to bouts of weeping, tries to balance his life caring for his aging mother, his Catholicism, his homosexuality, and his dull job. One night, after his mother has gone to bed, he dons leather and heads for a private club. He telephones a tattoo artist with a special request. He goes to confession, accusing himself of despairing. He cries out during a nightmare, waking his mother. "You're a good boy," she's told him. He prays the Stations of the Cross, and he lives out his own sorrowful mysteries.
观众心声
gay片。特伦斯·戴维斯的声画分立实验。主角给纹身师打电话与教堂忏悔一段尤为精彩。
片名为Madonna and Child，圣母与孩童已经足够说明主题。借用圣母怜悯耶稣之名，来反衬男主角让人悲悯的生活。无论是轮船上的落泪，在教堂的忏悔，还是独自在台球桌旁的饭食，对自我的迷失对未来的无望，都是非常灰色调的氛围营造。
+ 有关声画的思考更进一层，可惜有些地方处理得不够好，刻意了。
声画关系。开场很美，海鸥，离岸的船，倒牛奶的手，酣睡的老母亲，you are a good boy，无法自制的哭泣。演员太棒了，看着他的眼神，就想替上帝宽恕他的一切。
貌似特伦斯·戴维斯早期很倾向男同啊，宗教的禁锢、潜伏的死亡和汗淋淋的欲望在梦境里纷呈并惊醒；平移长镜风格尽显，时间的断裂与延续，母子关系的探讨。
