9.Wild Tales
9.《荒蠻故事》
Passengers board a flight for which they have all received free tickets. Slowly they realize that their mysterious benefactor is a man named George Pasternak, whom each of them had wronged in some way — and that he is in the cockpit about to crash the plane. A hijacking story with a weirdly effervescent tang, this is the first of six short fables in an omnibus comedy from Argentinian writer-director Damián Szifron. Animosity simmers and boils hilariously in episodes set in a roadhouse diner, on the open highway, in a DMV office, among the corrupt members of a rich family and at a wedding ceremony where the bride learns her new husband has had affair with one of the guests. Produced by Pedro Almodóvar, and playing like a volume of short stories somehow coauthored by Ambrose Bierce and Roald Dahl,Wild Talesbuilds recognizable grudges into tales of apocalyptic revenge. It’s also the year’s most fearlessly funny film.
乘客們都免費登機后才慢慢意識到自己被騙了:提供機票的喬治·帕斯捷爾納克(里卡杜-達林飾)正坐在駕駛艙里準備墜毀這輛客機。這個不乏歡騰搞笑的劫機故事取自于阿根廷作家達米安·斯茲弗隆寓言文集的第一篇。電影取景多樣,包括在公路邊的房屋里共進晚餐,在寬闊的馬路上馳騁,富豪家腐敗的成員們聚集一堂,婚禮上新娘發現新郎竟然與一位來賓發生戀情。該片由佩德羅·阿莫多瓦擔任制片人,刻畫了復仇路上的恩怨情仇,引人深思。影片還給觀眾一種讀安布羅斯·貝爾士和羅爾德·達爾合著的系列短篇小說的感覺,堪稱年度“最冒險”喜劇片。
