UCLA college student Jonathan Moore (Anthony Edwards) is playing a game called "Gotcha" (popular on mid-1980s college campuses as "Assassin" or "Tag"), wherein the players are all assigned a mock "hit" on another player by use of a harmless paintball gun. Moore and his apartment roommate Manolo go on a vacation to Paris, France. After touring some of Paris, in a cafe Moore meets Sasha Banicek (Linda Fiorentino), a Czechoslovakian girl. Eventually, Jonathan has intercourse with Sasha, losing his virginity.
Jonathan decides to leave Manolo (who is heading to Spain) and go with Sasha to West Berlin to spend more time with her. Jonathan believes that he is in love with Sasha. There, Jonathan and Sasha continue to have sex and even go to an Oktoberfest beer gathering. One night, Sasha tells Jonathan that she has to go to East Berlin to pick up a package. One night after arriving in East Berlin, Sasha leaves their hotel room and walks to dark street corner. There, Sasha meets a German man who tells her the location of the pickup of her package. Meanwhile, Sasha was being monitored by a Soviet agent, who was sitting in a car at a distance. During the day, Sasha tells Jonathan that if she gives him a certain message, it means that he has to leave East Berlin immediately. At a cafe, Sasha gives Jonathan a package and says that a strudel is inside. A little later, Sasha tells Jonathan to meet her at the butcher shop near their hotel. All of a sudden, a Soviet agent begins to chase after Sasha. Sasha decides to use Jonathan (who is holding her package) to unknowingly get the package over to West Berlin. Meanwhile, Sasha is taken by the Soviet agent and East German secret police.
Jonathan goes to Checkpoint Charlie to cross the heavily fortified border into West Berlin. At the East German customs search, Jonathan is stripped of his clothes and given a cavity search. Meanwhile, Sasha is stripped and searched for possible espionage evidence. Vlad arrives at the border crossing to search for Jonathan, however Jonathan passes the border safely before he can be captured. Once in West Berlin, Jonathan feels liberated by the Westernized society. In the hotel, Jonathan receives a message from Sasha to meet him at a specified location. Jonathan finds out that his hotel room was broken into and robbed of his traveler's checks. Soviet agents eventually find Jonathan in West Berlin and chase him throughout a public park. Jonathan jumps into a water canal and manages to escape from the Soviets and stumbles upon a German rock group headed for Hamburg, who offer him a ride to the airport.
The rock group successfully get Jonathan to the airport (using full-face makeup to sneak him past a checkpoint) and Jonathan finally arrives in Los Angeles Tom Bradley International Airport and to his apartment. Soon, Vlad and a band of Soviet agents arrive too in Los Angeles. Once home, Jonathan stumbles upon a film canister, which was planted by Sasha. Jonathan visits his parents and tells them what happened in Germany but they cannot believe a word of it and think Jonathan is on drugs. Jonathan decides to call the FBI then the Central Intelligence Agency for help. Jonathan returns to find his apartment broken into and looted.
The CIA officer tells Jonathan to give them the photo film canister. At the Los Angeles headquarters of the CIA, Jonathan spots Sasha who looks like she was working there. Jonathan eventually meets up with Sasha. Sasha admits that she is Cheryl Brewster, a CIA agent, originally from Pittsburgh. Out of nowhere, Vlad and his gang begin to chase Jonathan and Cheryl on the UCLA campus. Jonathan eliminates all the Soviets with a tranquilizer gun which he gets from the campus veterinary sciences building. The Soviets are arrested, the CIA agents thank Jonathan for his (indirect) help in obtaining the film, and Sasha tells him she wants to continue their relationship.
After they part, Jonathan talks to a pretty student who rebuffs him coldly. As she walks away, he aims the tranquilizer pistol and shoots her in the rear.
柏林银熊 洪非常在线的自我重复 金敏喜好美 这份爱情我感受得到 但我还是觉得她应该有更广阔的天地 “天色尚早 但很快就会暗下来 趁着白日漫漫 让我们一起散步吧”
听到朱迪的利物浦口音，瞬间被拉回在利物浦学习生活的那段时间，想念
没有正能量主旋律，没有刻意煽情，但很有效。格局很小，仅仅展现了长照中心，就折射出了整个国家的问题，明明没有投入任何援助，广播里却在说着国家对他们的付出。
一部像是洪常秀的自传的电影，电影中的小说家就像是他自己，他拍的不是纪录片，他只是把他观察到的事与物，还有人与人之间、人与事物之间的关系表达出来，无论是男人之间的对话，或者男人与女人之间的对话，或是女人与女人之间的对话，亦或是一群人的对话，都在表达着那些没有被直白给出的话语与话语之间以及背后的故事，至于是什么故事，那些故事的真相又是什么，就像是电影结尾处，女演员在看过小说家的电影之后的表情一样，可能是愤怒，也可能是疑惑，或是错愕，但最后的最后，全凭观众自己去体会。
为什么很多人都没发现文艺的好处，像这样的：几个人围坐在一起，学习用手语表达一句诗，“天色尚早，但很快就会暗下来，趁着白日漫漫，我们一起去散步吧”；或者毫不客气地反驳那位拍商业片的导演，“你比她自己更热爱她的生活吗，凭什么她不去拍电影是一种浪费，你怎么可以轻易对别人的生活进行评判”，导演的妻子竟只好狼狈地把丈夫拉走，全然把小说家当作一个泼妇，却失去了一次深入探讨价值观的机会；或者仅仅是初次相识的两个人，在饭馆一起吃了一份炒年糕、一份石锅拌饭，便可以相互投契地准备合作拍一部小电影。文艺是这样，随性地交谈、突如其来的心灵的阵痛，是“你别看他长这个样子，他其实是个聪明的人”。小说家坦白，“我要假装成我总是能感知到那些微小事情的人，这是沉重的负担，老实话，也很尴尬”；文艺远不只具有装饰性，洪尚秀认为。
洪尚秀的自我指涉已经到了可以精神性转的程度。
谁说只有中文的多义性别有韵味，本片中一个HELP的多层指涉同样有趣，开始的help是tommy帮sarah的友善之举令她获得工作，中间sarah开始help护院的老人们生活起居，再到中段崩溃时候的内心OS寻求"help!"无门，最后她又“help”了tpmmy出逃，以及针对NHS以及唐宁街的怒吼质疑help?!
大段大段的对白，长镜头，极其流畅自然的日常对话。金敏喜不拍电影，谁也管不着哈。
看的第一部和疫情直接有关的电影，在经历的这一两年难称为顺利的困苦中，听到演员们集体朗诵Sir Edward Dyer my mind to me a kingdom is, 边吃面条边流泪
洪常秀影片的魅力很大程度上来源于对日常状态下人物“情绪异动”的瞬间把握，又是一通尬聊闲聊无聊偶然街角长镜惯用的洪氏黑白叙事调调且御用小姐公婆总是拿奖到手软。
片头提示很贴心 果然会引起不适 医疗资源倾斜在疫情期间太突出了 我们的生命平等过吗 反正大陆是不敢这么拍的
还不错的疫情题材影片，朱迪·科默是个好演员！
切入点很棒，对准新冠疫情下最脆弱、最容易被抛弃的那群人，不能深刻感受Sarah的绝望，毕竟我们大部分人在疫情严重的时候都被保护的很好，但是知道新冠改变了很多人的命运，让原本就很艰难的成年人的生活变得更加雪上加霜，珍惜当下吧。
你看得到，但你得不到，你能感受到，但你仅仅只能感受到，洪尚秀的电影，愈来愈偏向他心里那个自卑的小人儿了。
没有小说，也没有电影，只有梦境。像个三重现实梦境，简单又贴近生活，有的只是发现生活的小美好和跟随心。
朱迪科默真的是个好演员 完全被她带入情境当中
本片明艳的黑白摄影，显得凝重，很符合洪几乎定格的场景互动风格，很显然在这里，洪的推镜更慢了，情节的衔接更舒服，但也没失去洪独特的文本性。
一个对自我产生质疑的小说家，偶遇曾经要将其小说拍成电影最终却推掉的导演夫妇，三人同行又遇到自顾息影的女演员。导演因赞许女演员的才华导致小说家对导演对女演员生活选择品头论足产生反感，不留情面地驳斥对方。导演的妻子不愿继续与其同行，小说家的观念与女演员不谋而合，因此二人打算共同完成一部短片创作。影片的结尾，女演员独自在影厅里观看成片，留给我们的只有一个镜头，即是女演员手捧野花目光清澈地走向屏幕，嘴角挂着清纯的微笑，哼着婚礼进行曲。洪尚秀借小说家之口说出自己全新的创作理念:情节不重要。被深剖赋予意义的生活细节也有被夸大之嫌。最重要的是重拾对生活的信念。影片中反复提及的女演员丈夫一角，始终未曾出现在影片中，以及影片的影片中。而小说家创作的前提是夫妇二人共同出演，对于生活起到决定性意义的事物是缺席的。
以小见大，没有歌功颂德，只是极端情形下普世的渺小无力。柔软的Tony，半夜被叫醒帮病友翻身，在护工面前羞涩地冲淋浴。两个本色口音，Jodie今年真劳模。
朱迪科莫那段长镜头看得让人揪心 无力感是那么深刻
