A brilliant and outragously funny satire of society, 7 December 1999 Author: Dave Joerg (joerd000@mail.zdv.uni-mainz.de) "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.
甘地热潮正席卷印度全国,其中一个原因可以说是拜本片所赐。本片讲述黑道人物姆纳为了追求一名电台女DJ,讹称自己是大学教授,不惜恶补甘地生平,以便参加电台问答比赛。当他日刨夜刨时,甘地的鬼魂就在他眼前出现,教导他如何以非暴力手段应付人生逆境。在这出黑道人物追女仔的电影中,圣雄甘地的角色几乎由头演到尾,甘地的哲学和精神也贯彻了全片。本片在首都新德里开画一星期后,市政府以该片宣扬甘地追求真理和非暴力抗争,宣布该片可以豁免缴交娱乐税。同样地,印度中部切蒂斯格尔邦也因本片表扬甘地的价值观,具有教育意义,宣扬正面讯息,也给予该片免税的地位。
