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.
名声决定一切的时代可不就得各种装嘛，可惜最终也没靠女人上位。
历史不过在周而复始
欢快的小提琴音乐映衬着人物们内心的滑稽，无论他们正在做对的事还是错得事都显得无所谓了，看似很无聊的事其实背后都是生意。一旦破坏了多数者利益，即便是国王也得上断头台。
海明威说巴黎是一席流动盛宴，这个片子实在是把巴黎纸醉金迷、浮动的欲望展现出来了。上一个让我惊艳的复古质感的电影是巴里林登。台词功底还是得益于巴尔扎克了？
2个半小时完全不会无聊，过程很精彩，结局更加精彩华丽！！！
幻光破灭谓之幻灭。
典型的一个男人的“成长故事”；关于媒体 press；关于初心 理想 名利与欲望；浮华的表象 一碰即碎的泡沫。不是我喜欢的type 但有时间可以去看看原著/ 07.09.22@film forum

这让我突然又想起了《燃烧女子的肖像》来，二者都用到了维瓦尔第的四季小提琴协奏曲，区别在于烧女图是将全片的情绪积压在最后来以配乐的方式而爆发出来，但幻灭又不那么强烈，他更多的是以小提琴协奏曲的激烈情绪表达主角处境的剧烈震动，再然后带给观众较为饱满的情绪表达。两者用法完全不同，但这并不影响他们各自在配乐上的优秀。
了不起的巴尔扎克，关于新闻的讽刺太应景了。本片也精心制作，不辜负名著。
唏嘘不已，确实幻灭，巴尔扎克的原著应该非常扎实
上承拉辛下启巴尔扎克的时代 唯美浪漫走向批判现实过程中一枚外省文学青年的跌宕史. 恰逢传媒业大发展 文学诚然还可以滋养幻想 然而在日益"现代"的巴黎 只有充当一名词汇贩子去兜售"鸭子"才能养活文字人. 贵族尚有余力豢养 大众蓬勃好奇则宣告资产阶级文艺消费降临 小报构成了比宫廷更趋丰厚的滋养土壤 然而天真青年骨子里却仍持有贵族迷思 野望进一步跃升"头衔"阶层 自然悲剧如期而至. 这本的辞格蛮有意思 19世纪法兰西戏剧风 3.5
-结构好？那就是它老套！
编剧和导演的能力执行起来太吃力了。《幻灭》这是我最爱的一个“人间喜剧了”😅
如果读过原著，可能就看不下去。主要展现了19世纪巴黎新闻业的虚假以及人不可能实现阶级跨越。最感动的是贵族夫人从始至终对Lucien的欣赏与爱慕。
「报社如今变成了商店，向公众出售他们想听的。报纸不再开明，而是煽动意见，或是创造意见。新闻、辩论和观点都变成了商品，用来哄骗订阅者。记者们变成了语言的零售商、词语贩子、艺术家和公众之间的经纪人。」
全世界法语电影和画外音最配。问题是这种伎俩的画外音简直让导演成了废物。要你何用？全都靠说了还拍什么电影。印厂曾经也是浪漫的，手工永远比工业大生产有情怀。
在极端困难时，他遇到了一个小报编辑，在报社，一个崭新的世界向他展开，这里提倡胡编乱造，收费发贴，他如鱼得水，编写大量高质量水贴，获得了巨大的声誉和金钱，并收获了一个青年女演员的爱。然而旧情人要求再续前缘时，他背叛了自由派同志们，妄想加入保皇派中，获得爵位，名正言顺和初恋在一起。这种首鼠两端的做法，又无强力背景和高智商支持，结局已经注定了，在他期望最辉煌时，遭到两个派别的联合打击，小情人死去，自己负债累累，整个悲惨人生还变成了人家的小说素材。惨。
