A brilliant and outragously funny satire of society, 7 December 1999
Author: Dave Joerg ([email protected])
"Flodder" is one of the funniest movies ever made and few people realise that it is a Dutch movie made by none other than the Holland version of John Carpenter, the famous Dick Maas, author and director of the thriller "Amsterdamned". The Flodder family is the reincarnation of the term a-social. When the whole family bunch, basically all bastards, criminals and sluts must be relocated from their City slum because of toxic waste under their house, the city council house no choice. The only available space is in the "Zoendal" - the "Sun Valley" the best area in Amsterdam where all doctors, snobs and businessmen can afford to live their lives. And where the central point of interest and politics is the tennis club of the community. The Flodder family brings devastation to the tranquil world that ruled before. They are simply unbelievable. The characterisation is incredibly funny, beginning with Ma Flodder who searches other people's trash cans for food or making illegal liquor in her cellar and ending with the eldest daughter who is the biggest slut on earth. Together they make the most horrible family imaginable, a sort of immoral mirror image to the Brady Bunch or the Waltons. When the City counsel of Amsterdam hoped that the Flodders would show their good will to be more civilised in their new area, it turns out that Holland's most famous family would rather bring out the worst in the rich people of "Sun Valley"-wonderland. The rest is a hilarious, brilliant and well made social satire that can be watched as a provocative movie as well as a straightforward comedy. Dick Maas at his best. I salute him! Flooder was the Dutch smash hit in 1986 and brought two sequels and a tv series. All of the sequels were nice but not as great as the original.
Flodders (1986) is available on DVD in Germany in a dubbed German version in Dolby Digital 5.1. under the name:
"Flodders -Eine Familie zum knutschen"
Why is First Floor Features, the producer of the movie not bringing the Dick Maas blockbusters out on DVD in the Netherlands, I wonder. The are not even available on video there. These movies have so much potential, still to this day and have a huge silent but true following.
不时插入的不同画幅空镜
生活的下一页总是未知的，但我们仍要翻开下一页，而有一种真挚的东西是永存的，时间无法使它停止。塞纳河畔的夜色，化成极尽温柔的抚慰，是即使受伤也要自由追寻的灵魂。
我哭死，她好温柔呀，50来岁的甘斯布还是如此迷人。
她必须重新找到谋生的工作，而且要两份工，她父亲安抚她，“你这么脆弱、敏感，又容易流眼泪，肯定可以找到适合的工作”。你很快会明白，这部电影会善待所有脆弱的灵魂。她坚强独立亦无奈接受了父亲的帮助，亦渴望新的伴侣。塞纳河畔的夜色里，没有“鸡血”也没有“鸡汤”，只有美丽的她。
晚安，夜旅人们。
想在Elizabeth家的大窗户的落日前抽一只事后烟
不知道是缅怀时间还是巴黎的夜如始自终，与甘斯布仿佛共享过同一个巴黎夜，同一种忧郁日复一日地淌过塞纳河，覆盖了街道，在铁塔午夜最后一次闪灯的时候画下句号。只有铁塔的灯光是平等的，不论是16区摇着红酒的old money，还是战神广场上抽廉价烟的流浪汉，那时那刻，看到灯光的所有夜旅人都获得过短暂的幸福。我也害怕我触碰过的一切被我毁掉，害怕幸福的人都是可怜的胆小鬼，一边渴望着幸福，一边亲手毁掉。
美好纷至沓来，就算离别也不算太坏，几近溢出的迷人感扑面而来，发生在八十年代的巴黎故事，每个人都沉醉于清新的晚风中找寻着属于自己的归处，如此随意且动人，伴随着音乐与电台，在即将降临的暮色中翩翩起舞，陌生又美好的邂逅将一切往昔的痛苦洗净，如果告别是注定的结局，那就期盼彼此在某个夜晚的再次相遇，就像巴黎城中无所不在的浪漫与奇遇，终究会是孤独旅人最温柔的故乡。
他们的时间是流动的，我们的时间是7天、14天的块状物，他们即使生活艰难也没有失去安全感，而我们......
是那种看完了不太会记得剧情，虽然也没有太多。但会一直沉浸在电影的情绪当中，给人感觉非常舒服的两个小时
这是什么微妙的滤镜或者色调 让本就迷人的80s巴黎更加迷幻与浪漫 整部电影都弥漫着惬意舒适的氛围 非常适合拿来放松 原声带更是美妙 睡前准备狠狠循环 可惜啊巴黎这座城市如今也已经回不去了
既去年有人把伯格曼当工具人之后 今年侯麦也没幸免。
美丽，温柔，带着一丝丝不大不小的哀愁，令人着迷的是巴黎的夜，是暮色晨光里每一个认真生活的人。 最后30秒有点感动。
最喜欢的两个法国女神自1999年《圣诞蛋糕》后首次合作，再加上惊艳的新人女二号Abita——她和《圣诞蛋糕》刚好同岁。巴黎这座城市，能够如此温柔地包容一代又一代丰富多彩的女性们。
色调灯光各方面营造的氛围还是不错的，故事也有些芸芸众生的群像感。本来以为是一个救赎的故事，结果其实是一个母亲的成长故事，应该是男性导演拍的吧（还没看一下导演），如果让女性来拍四十几岁的中年危机的母亲或女人可能会有更细腻或全面的感情。最后如果能是流动的结局会更好，不要是静止的全部人都在的回忆。因为，毕竟巴黎夜旅人，大家都会走，回望那些哪怕曾经快乐的回忆也是没有意义的。我们能做的，只是在回忆变质前分开而已，不然再快乐的回忆都会被那些不真诚的敷衍甚至互相伤害消磨殆尽。
好厉害呀。导演期望我们给足故事耐心，最后也让我爱这个电影。
甘斯布居然演高中生的妈了！而且是更年期遇到青春期那种，但即使片中自嘲的怨妇状态，也满满文艺范儿，诠释巴黎的人间烟火，以及如何历练着优雅老去。三个大孩子的成长迷惑和阵痛故事没太多新意，好看在于讲述的细腻。
之夏
手松点的话也可以给到四星。巴黎夜色，怀旧情绪，时代画像，有被小小的温暖到。老旧archival moving images的插入具有联动效果。导演Hers可真是个侯麦的迷弟啊…
体量比三宅唱大一点的片子，给人以相似温暖的感动。运用大量archive footage来构建时代感，成功把观众抛入一个加糖带滤镜却又让人信服的美好世界。侯麦与其说成为一种迷影元素，不如说成为一个怀旧构件。
