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.
纷繁乱世，最难的不是看清局势，而是弄不明白自我
没读过同名原著小说，从我读过的巴尔扎克的“高老头”“欧也妮葛朗台”我觉得多兰把这部拍的很好啊，就不分析媒体人如何为了钱或者媒体都是有倾向性的，资本怎样，或者贵族如何如何的，我觉得考完这部反而觉得吕西安会东山再起的。
极具天赋的文艺青年的幻灭之路。在他摸清了巴黎新闻界的些许皮毛之后，一度曾十分自负的认为自己拥有了全世界，而在那短暂的虚荣巅峰之后，他为自己的狂妄付出了代价。巴黎从未向谁真正敞开尊贵的大门，盛宴之下，满目疮痍，人人都是小丑，人人皆为蝼蚁。这是200年前的巴黎，也是现在。
看吧，有金钱和文字的地方，就有虚荣、谎言、嫉妒、争斗…… 两百年前与两百年后并无差别。 Lucien 身上有巴尔扎克早年巴黎经历的影子，而Nathan则是他幻想中的自己。仔细想想演员选得挺合适的，Benjamin Voisin虽然不是正统帅哥，但脸上有那种天真与狂热交织的感觉。
影片在造型以及画面感塑造上，将19世纪巴黎各个阶层现状生动的演绎出来，《幻灭》改编自巴尔扎克的同名小说，导演对其原著改变不大，基本保留了原始旁白，展现了导演独特的艺术追求。喜欢影片最后一个段落，吕西安走在森林中，在湖边脱去所有衣物，走向水中，仿佛在向观者传达这里才是他最终的归属，既没有世俗也没有喧嚣与繁华，唯有自己和空荡的灵魂，导演运用特写镜头聚焦吕西安面部，眼神中透露着无尽的疲惫，无奈与重生。
他将停止幻想，他将开始生活，他将找到内心的力量
终于看到了一部有劲儿的电影？爽，终于没有虚度一个午后！
名著已经忘了，但巴尔扎克，批判现实主义的代表作家，好像是这么背的，哈哈。呈现在大屏幕上真的很绚丽，巴黎，爱一个人就把他送到巴黎去，恨一个人也把他送到巴黎去。不会引进的，真的引进就会删掉很多，没法看。
反面版本的Bel ami，Dolan的旁白太好听了，看完又让人相信爱情了呜呜。
毕竟是名著，人物、剧情、场面都要丰满许多。
站得高摔得惨
一星给旁白，帮助了解剧情。男主性格不好情商不行，结局在意料之中。
有一天，在加利利海上，两个评论家坐在一艘船上，突然间耶稣出现了，行神迹在海面上行走，一个评论家对另一个说：“瞧见了吗？他甚至不会游泳。” ——如果一本书很感人就说它故作伤感，很古典就说它匠气，有趣就说肤浅，很有智慧就说它做作，如果它很有启发，那就说它哗众取宠好了。
虽然只拍出了原著1/5的内容和1/10的深度，但已算是足够优秀的一部电影。片中汇聚了几乎所有法语国家的演员（法国、比利时、加拿大），好在基本不出戏；原著的语言实在太精彩，电影于是加了很多旁白（虽然是比较偷懒的方式，但也还能接受）；电影的很多情节处理得过于温情，以至于显得有点肤浅，原著要残酷得多。
还不错，超出预期。就是发现Xavier Dolan的脸已经经不起大银幕特写了。
很久没有看到过经典文学名著改编的新电影了，改编自法国作家巴尔扎克的同名小说，今年凯撒奖最佳影片，拍得即古典优雅又现代意识流，非常值得观看！
笔锋与爱，两种力量的较量。却输给了政治家！
“你可以从长处上去挑毛病，向来是机智的做法。”
能把Balzac的这么一部长篇小说（一部分）拍出来，就不容易了。人物众多，服化道考究，演员们的表演也算到位。年轻人如何成长，追求什么？现在看来，与那时真是所差无几。只要特权阶层拥有足够的财富，追求虚荣的Lucien们就会前赴后继的。又见到Xavier Dolan，脱去稚气，有点儿认不出来，不做导演了吗～
看完才知道是改编电影，一开始以为是多兰执导才点开，看到快中间已经开始觉得不对劲了。这个电影特别像一张精致的白纸，服化很好，但是过于平淡。如果早点知道多兰只是个演员的话我真的不会看完。
