剧情介绍
影片改编自美籍俄裔作家弗拉基米尔·纳博科夫1964年的小说《卢金的防守》，讲述了一个因为从小受到老师的虐待而变得孤僻的国际象棋冠军亚历山大·卢金和一个意志坚强的上流社会女性娜塔莉亚之间的爱情故事。
Set in the late 1920s, The Luzhin Defence tells the story of a shambling, unworldly chess Grand Master who arrives in the Italian Lakes to play the match of his life and unexpectedly finds the love of his life. Discovering his prodigious talent in boyhood overshadowed by his parents' failing marriage, Luzhin's lyrical passion for chess has become his refuge and rendered the real world a phantom. Already matched up by her family to the very suitable Comte de Stassard, when Natalia meets Luzhin, she is drawn to the erratic genius and offers him a glimpse outside of his chess obsession. But it is a world he is not equipped to deal with and his two worlds collide to tragic effect.
那个老头真的坏到骨子里，而且明明知道有人害男主角，还总让他单独待着，不断给坏人制造机会。不过也行天才的结局就是发疯，发疯的结局就是死亡。
第一眼把男主认成了阿尔帕西诺，西装确实像啊，对着演员表确认了好几遍。男女主演技真棒！故事的叙述和镜头处理也真好！不过结局的确太狗血，强行狗血...
前期还是挺吸引人的，女主漂亮，各种明线暗线，谈恋爱的戏码也还算可以；结果到后期节奏就变得一团糟，所有人的行动都变的奇怪起来，像是全体着了魔一样。看完结尾，感觉导演想表达的东西挺多的，但是我现在唯一感受到的只有:这片子从头到尾就没一个正常人……
镜头、节奏、闪回都很精彩。
男女主演的很好
But it is a world he is not equipped to deal with and his two worlds collide to tragic effect
结局绝对是败笔阿！败笔！！！气得我直跺脚。前90分钟真心不忍一口气看完，镜头、节奏、闪回都很精彩。可是老纳小说中作为压迫势力的妻子设定在电影中完全成了浪漫爱情故事的牺牲品，尤其是额外添加的那场代夫作战……也无怪乎开头从两人偶遇切入，就差这么一口气阿

没看过纳博科夫的小说，对结尾的处理不好评价，不过，Natalia以卢金的遗计击败图拉蒂作为结尾，似乎有点情感无处宣泄的感觉（作为故事核心的卢金却在结尾缺席）
根据小说改编的电影，描写了一位国际象棋大师的经历及其爱情故事。演员演得都不错，但故事的讲述却存在问题。也许纳博柯夫的原小说就是如此，他的小说总是有些夸张，且剑走偏锋。剧中校长一角的设置，应该是故事中的一大败笔。那种无缘无故无所不在的作恶，像极了那些廉价的肥皂剧。
"I, however, desire something a little bit different."
好平淡啊，剧情都猜得出来。所以大胡子坏蛋就是因为伤了卢金的心，所以卢金才失魂落魄丢三落四的吗?
一念执着，一念成魔。“He was trying to defend. But then at the end, he went back on himself.”

Nabokov could be very tender, though few really remember…
