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.
醉乡民谣的合作摄影
科恩单飞之后的预热吧，摄影极具风格，结合建筑光影关系凸显人物内心的磊落与阴暗，这样的处理在以往电影中只作为辅助手段，这次科恩却把建筑视觉语音以舞台背景元素强调表现矛盾冲突。这也算是对莎翁戏剧《麦克白》的全新解读。可建筑光影交替和莎翁极具交响乐般的对白，无法在影片中交相辉映，略显撕扯。丹泽尔.华盛顿的内心挣扎实在显得有些疲惫，看不出本能的纠结，只有学院话戏剧功底的堆砌。
科恩重演莎翁，在多版本的《麦克白》改编中，能否排得到前列恐怕还是打个问号。但是影片在风格化和形式感上确实做得十分出彩，精美的黑白影调干净、简洁、漂亮，渐进地模糊了戏剧与电影的界限，视觉享受直接拉满。
NYFF59 Opening Night｜50年后Frances再演麦克白夫人｜很舞台剧的一部电影，传统又不传统。拍得有个性，演得也有个性，but not my type…
对于莎翁经典的再度演绎，这一版相较于影史上较为著名的奥逊威尔斯和黑泽明的版本，亮点在于黑白摄影和极简的服化道美术，以及更加具有舞台剧质感的表演和置景，所以这一部4：3的画幅更像是看了一场舞台剧。没想到导演是科恩兄弟的哥哥，出品方是影迷的老熟人厂牌A24。
觉得很高大上的表演，然而不好看。。。。无论是情节还是单调枯糙的背景，当然，还是能看的。
Macblack not Macbeth ，这是什么文艺复兴？把戏剧文本直接搬上银幕，是一个很有意思的想法，但导演的能力显然不足以支撑其野心，十分缺乏想象力（要不就是没钱），只用特写、简单的剪辑和演员的独白台词去讲述故事，而没有用更多更丰富的镜头配合舞美和演员场景调度去挖掘麦克白和夫人的内心～既然都把文本直接拿来用了，就不能有点儿舞台想象力么？建议导演多看看NTL～要是谁在舞台上这么导戏，准得被骂死…但讽刺的是，搬上米粒坚银幕，这就变成了艺术

科恩怎么搞第七封印那套，但是里面有的现代有的古典很违和啊！
比起《绿衣骑士》，以极简美学，比其空洞的符号堆砌更加光秃；以惨白和浓厚的光学，比其更缺乏生命的涌现。
哥哥单飞处女作。没有了黑色幽默，这次可谓把舞台剧形式感做到最足。黑白影像，打光极为讲究，整体来说还是很舒服的，不知在大银幕上是什么感觉。与之相比同样是A24的胶片《灯塔》更出色一些。
这摄影！绝了！今年摄影天花板吧！台词听着太费劲，但它美啊！
4.现代种族价值的改编，黑人的加入，多了点政治正确。
老黑把麥克白搞成了蜘蛛巢城 小科把蜘蛛巢城還原為莎翁
3.5 几位主演表现与建筑布景剪影加分 预感自己会更喜欢ntlive版
喜欢这种黑白独幕剧的电影
当万千黑鸦从路边飞过，就象征新一轮的杀伐又将开始。由欲望勾出的自我，往往会在邪恶之中印证自己的本我。极简主义的舞台剧式风格，黑白影调配合小画幅的设置，导演几乎将所有的视点都聚焦在人物的表演之中。对于莎士比亚的麦克白解读有很多，对于这种影像改编往往要加入作者性才会不落俗套，他将麦克白的欲望归结于自我的反叛和自省，利用这种具有规律的人性思考来体现无常的道德困境，只是表演和摄影太过亮眼，让人总觉得顾此失彼…（真的觉得表演性奖项全给这部作品也不为过）
别再说了，请立刻拍一套莎士比亚全集吧谢谢。
科恩妻子劝科恩兄弟决裂，对照麦克白的悲剧。
也不是第一次看麦克白的故事了，这版比较打动人的是前段对于莎翁原著的纪实化呈现，在文本上显得更为厚重。有点可惜的是，后半段节奏掉的很快，使得人物终究不立体，故事情节不够圆润，震撼力也就不太够。麦克白的悲剧是必然的，历史上的很多失败一直在不断重演，成王败寇亘古不变，守天下永远比打天下难。
