Narcisus and Psyche is based on a novel by Sandor Weores which was adapted by Vilmos Csaplar and director Gabor Body for a feature-length film. Borrowing the character of Psyche from mythology and placing her in Europe in the 19th century, the authors give her a "modern" life. She is an attractive young woman - and remains so throughout the film, in spite of one hardship after another. Psyche is libidinous, and her prurient interests shock her staid contemporaries. For reasons that the viewer is left to ponder, her life is almost a living punishment for her sexual laxity. Her child is taken away and killed, and although she is in love with her tutor, who has syphilis, she marries another man. She is suffering herself from some affliction, which leads to hospital scenes that are acerbic commentaries on 19th c. Western medicine. Psyche is about to leave for America with her husband, when the story takes another abrupt turn. 译文(2): 《那西索斯与赛琪》改编自桑德尔 · 威尔斯的小说，由维尔莫斯 · 卡萨普拉和导演加伯 · 波迪改编成长篇电影。作者从神话故事中借用普赛克的人物形象，将她置于19世纪的欧洲，赋予她一种“现代”的生活。她是一个有吸引力的年轻女性——尽管一个接一个的困难，在整部电影中仍然如此。普赛克性欲旺盛，她的好色行为震惊了她古板的同时代人。由于一些观众不得不思考的原因，她的生活几乎是对她性放纵的一种活生生的惩罚。她的孩子被带走并杀害，虽然她爱上了她的导师，谁有梅毒，她嫁给了另一个男人。她正在遭受一些痛苦，这导致了医院的场景，是对19世纪西方医学的尖刻评论。普赛克即将和她的丈夫一起前往美国，这时故事发生了另一个突然的转折。
