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.
一把年纪是不是差点白活了
室内剧，好喜欢Emma这个演员，最后一幕很震撼。女性在花钱买性服务的时候都要时刻自我反思吗，就不能享受就完事了……
有些让人唏嘘的是女人买鸭都要做五十分钟顾左右而言他的心理建设，而男人可能五分钟就能提裤走人。第一次看到拍的如此干净纯粹的关于性的故事，虽然中间小鸭讲自己与母亲关系时有些老套，但它的确跳出了传统嫖客与妓之间被定义的关系，发展出了一种与肉体有关的友情。
演的真好，好多地方笑死。最喜欢藏标签那个镜头，Emma Thompson太可爱了。
非亲密关系也可以很美，互相照亮过就是珍贵。
议题并不新鲜，昆德拉在《不能承受生命之轻》中早就讨论过了。世俗生活要求的爱，和身体本能想要的性，本来就是很难合二为一的存在吧，只是大多数都觉得它们可以。
温柔静谧的对话空气像音乐盒的flow。最后一个镜头女主看镜中自己好美丽。想流泪。
开始看时觉得应该拍成一个系列，里奥·格兰德这个披着性工作者外皮的心理咨询师，过于从容有度，想看他接诊各种客人，而不是一个典型拘谨的白人大妈，这个女性形象多少有些刻意得惹人嫌，不过在最后，话锋又转向了里奥本人，让两个角色都成为了性压抑的受害者，最后加戏的在镜中欣赏自己并不年轻的肉体一段还是很不错，是挺轻松有趣的话剧电影。
“为人父母压力很大，这种压力从未离开过，你就像是拇指在淤青上一样。
真好啊，直视身体，直视欲望，最后的高潮来得太妙。不被束缚的纯洁关系，比爱情有趣，是幻想也好，是假的也罢，谢谢你，温柔的Leo.
以性做为载体，并且全部内景以及依靠大量对白的依托，这都不是作为导演敢于轻易尝试的东西。但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》做到了。四段式的结构干净利落，简洁但是精致，虽然冲突来得有一些过于突然，但是通过彰显功力的对白呈现出了自我认同、原生家庭、女性地位等等我们当下几乎所有人都正在遭遇的问题。虽然电影的首要任务永远不是对问题做出解答，但是《祝你好运，里奥·格兰德》却再一次以一种浪漫并且不失哲学的方式提供我们：治愈是我们每个人终其一生的命题。
很有伯格曼的感觉，空间局限在小房间里，看点在两人间的互动张力变化。Nancy太有趣了，前半段我一直在笑，以及没想到第一次居然是个从白天开始的case！看了大家的负面评价，看时完全没有想到那部分。我觉得影片的重点在“年老后渐成的女性主义新成员”，以及片子写男人的心理也写得挺好的。男主的劲儿有点儿陈伟霆。
The toy will make it sooo much easier, but it will also deprive the fun of interaction and the feeling of being wanted by someone. However, what are the chances of meeting a top tier escort just like Leo? I think I will pathetically stay with the toy…
真的很稳。Nancy的角色是对所有被性别角色所捆绑女性的完美折射，焦虑、欲望、失望和恐惧都在行为和言语中暴露无疑。平日被消费的对象反转成为消费的主体，将男性凝视自食其果；但却不仅仅如此，在凝视的基础上还增加了很多层次的阐释和叙述，对性工作者的迷思，不仅来自性别，更与种族身份密不可分。女性的欲望在一次次宛如心理咨询的谈话中被重提，被讨论，只是多了一些实践的层面，满足性幻想和需求。信息量太大，也感觉到导演想要一下次全部展现，有些细节感觉略微操之过急和刻意。4.8/5
美人迟暮。话题倒是比较开放，但实在接受无感。鸭鸭竟然也成为一种这么绅士的职业，果然贫穷限制了我的想象力。
太棒了，我希望我认识的所有女性朋友们都看这部电影
很棒的小成本制作。结尾也丝毫不落俗套。没有让性升华到爱，也没有让欲望美化到深情。没有给满五星只是因为我觉得台词里一些涉及到的其他社会问题有点刻意，过渡得不够自然，而真正要探讨的性，还是没有更深入展开。第三个角色那个苏珊的女学生出现得有点突兀，虽然她的出现可能可以提供观众一个第三视角的思考角度，但是，我只是在想，导演和编剧有没有能力可以把这种第三视角不通过添加人物角色来演绎出来呢？对，就是可以让这部戏从头到尾都由两个演员演绎出来，是不是更厉害？最后，女性无论如何都要经济独立和思想独立，不要把思想依赖和经济依赖挂在男人身上，你看，当你付钱给男人的时候，他们变得多么可爱和听话，一脸贱样加对你热火的性感，和女性取悦他们时有什么两样？该片应该给世上每个异性恋女孩看看。还有，女性要明白：性和爱是两码事。
倒是想起之前和ex睡前睡后并肩坐在床上的对话，那些沮丧的、欢欣的、诚实的、矫饰的、难解的、无法重演的。
就像《震惊！六旬老太竟做了这件事》打开一看结果是她退休不忘发挥余热拯救失学少年…这说教姿势也太标准了
Emma, you are a great actress. And Leo, I hope we will meet each other somewhere someday.
