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.
瞠目结舌的视听体验，简直是奥逊威尔斯还魂。表现主义的光影，沉重苍凉的史诗。科恩这次单飞同台竞技胜过了黑泽明和波兰斯基，华盛顿也强过三船敏郎。
摄影，光影运用，表演，均是顶级，但整合在一起却并没有那么合理。
莎翁的作品还是伟大。麦克白的悲剧或许在于无法听到自己的声音，无法循着自己的使命妥善过一生，听了太多谗言蒙蔽了自己的双眼。
对于the original text和plot的绝对熟悉是本片最基础的观影门槛了, 而Macbeth作为（可能是）我最喜欢的Shakespeare作品，看到Denzel Washington和Fran McDormand飙戏就忍不住要打四星以上。选择黑白的影像呈现，Joel Coen这次在mise-en-scene上下足了功夫，无论是建筑环境还是光影变化，都透露出一种冷峻却疯狂的气质。除了很喜欢影片对于the witches的处理外，McDormand对于Lady Macbeth的处理确实让人有耳目一新的感觉，野心并不是那么的外放，狠辣却不减分毫，最后的sleep walking scene更是一种后窗式的解构，让人对她的表演欲罢不能。
每一位功成名就的大明星都想要一个证明自己有台词天赋的机会
无与伦比的构图、光影和画面，把舞台搬上荧幕来讲述被说了很多遍的老故事，电影的艺术气质那么浓，丹帝演得那么好，又怎么会不好看？A24每次都太能戳中我的喜好了～丹帝再冲一次小金人影帝吧！！
A24你支棱起来！不要给这两兄弟全家忽悠瘸了啊哇！
华盛顿的麦克白是我迄今为止看过最摄人心魄的表演！将人内心的欲望与恐惧、勇气与迷茫、盲信和不安诠释的淋漓尽致！ 哪来的女巫，哪来的乌鸦，不过是被打开的“潘多拉魔盒”。弗兰斯希更是不用说，感觉今年又是奥斯卡女主的强大争夺者，“梦游”那段戏的爆发力和最后“go to bed”带来的震撼让我电影结束后还在回味。极简主义的美术布置和黑白色的蒙太奇再配上极强的摄影，这是一部艺术感和戏剧感爆棚的电影，前提你得耐得住前20分钟“枯燥”的艺术铺垫。
最近又给学生讲了一遍麦克白，再来看这版电影。配乐，摄影，Washington的演绎，看得我起了一身鸡皮疙瘩 。
B/74｜刺杀国王、献祭预言、皇后发疯几场戏惊艳绝伦，音效和视觉效果结合相宜，强对比的打光和几何简约式的布景仿佛上世纪初德国表现主义的复兴。各位戏骨贡献了完美的表演，除了“达力”实在让我有点出戏。但是有一说一，这种布景带来的劣势和优势同样明显，空间受限带来的是画幅景别的重复使用，视觉造就的力量在半个小时后之后就消失殆尽，最想看的类似《蜘蛛巢城》里的移动森林则直接用纷飞的落叶一笔带过。A24尽整这些花活儿，多了也就不新鲜了。#LondonCurzonSoho#
莎翁的作品现在看来确实跟不上时代了，同样的故事在现代人看来，台词太过晦涩，剧情太过拖沓了。丹泽尔华盛顿的表演无可挑剔。极简主义的场景有的镜头看起来很美，有的却又显得那么简陋。
英语级别低者不友好，我就是。
但感觉没什么角度
属于那种好，但不好看的电影。单枪匹马的科恩“兄弟”，功力竟然也成倍减半了。最深刻的感受就是：不像电影，像舞台剧；无论是布景服装，还是演员的台词，都有很浓烈的舞台感，甚至有好几个瞬间，我都误以为自己在看戏剧，而不是电影。构图大赞，摄影大赞，演技大赞，丹泽尔今年虽仍注定陪跑，但是作为演员的他，实力和魅力都是毋庸置疑的，很期待继续在颁奖礼看到这个毫无感情的鼓掌机器(*¯︶¯*)
三星半 戏剧再大的矛盾冲突其空洞的内容填补不了电影的细节，但风格化的尝试与挑战无疑是成功的。缺席的人在光影上已然惊艳到我一次，这一回表现的更加极致。
卡司没有惊喜，出彩的是舞台化的场景和光影配合
3.5。丹泽尔华盛顿的表演精准到极致，但是并没有让人觉得特别出彩，反倒是女巫的表演令人印象深刻，虽然很大程度上归功于造型和妆容。摄影真的绝了，用表现主义那一套布景和构图，变形的、图形几何化的场面调度，来表现这样一个摒弃宏大叙事、侧重内心情感之黑暗扭曲的悲剧史诗，再贴切不过了。
然而表演的拿捏似乎在度上仍可继续商榷
开头从浓雾中走来的麦克白，结尾处遮天蔽日的群鸦，以及荒野女巫，分别从我这里获得一颗星。
感觉像话剧现场录制的视频，而且是很传统的莎剧。实在是无创新，所以找黑人演的重要角色。
