Ay?e, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 源自:https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
加拿大導演戴維.克羅南伯格執(zhí)導的本片,主要描寫駭人聽聞的瘋狗病,受傳染的人會口吐綠液,雙眼發(fā)光,并且見人亂咬,幾個小時后即不治而亡。美國著名的“性”星瑪里琳.查姆伯絲扮演的羅絲小姐幼時曾患過瘋狗病,因車禍受傷引起病毒復發(fā),腋下竟然不可思議地長出一個嘴巴,而且內有一個可伸縮自如的肉刺,專用來插到別人身上吸血。于是,她在一個接一個吸別人血的同時,也把瘋狗病迅速傳播,使城市瞬間成為瘋人滿布的人間地獄…… 影片評價 僅僅就身體變異而言,克隆伯格的獨特之處在于處處不忘對色情幻想進行扭曲,無論是《狂犬病》(Rabid)中女主角必須由腋下長出一只陰莖來對其陰道作出支撐,還是《錄像帶謀殺案》(Videodrome)中男主角長出陰道般的裂口,都是這種扭曲的必然,連錄像帶的轉子,都像雙乳一樣扭動。《錄像帶謀殺案》其實還有一個原來設想的結局,就是一男(男主角麥克斯)兩女(尼基和卞卡)合體,同時以各自的變異性器官相互絞纏吞噬。在《赤裸的午餐》(Naked lunch)中,那個最終撕開男性外皮露出女體乳房的總裁如果還不夠刺激,等你意識到她的裝束是女同施虐的標準配備,就會有格外的顫栗。
影片圍繞一個來自俄克拉荷馬州的美國石油鉆井平臺鉆工比爾(達蒙飾)展開。他不得不前往馬賽,拜訪他久未謀面卻鋃鐺入獄的女兒(布雷斯林飾),他的女兒堅稱并沒有犯下謀殺罪。面對語言的障礙、文化的差異,以及復雜的法律制度,比爾決意孤注一擲拯救他的女兒。而在這個過程中,他與一位當?shù)氐呐院退男∨畠航⒘擞颜x,也開始了個人的探索之旅,并獲得了更大的歸屬感。
