《时代周刊》：2014十大最佳电影

9.Wild Tales

9.《荒蛮故事》

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.

乘客们都免费登机后才慢慢意识到自己被骗了：提供机票的乔治·帕斯捷尔纳克（里卡杜-达林饰）正坐在驾驶舱里准备坠毁这辆客机。这个不乏欢腾搞笑的劫机故事取自于阿根廷作家达米安·斯兹弗隆寓言文集的第一篇。电影取景多样，包括在公路边的房屋里共进晚餐，在宽阔的马路上驰骋，富豪家腐败的成员们聚集一堂，婚礼上新娘发现新郎竟然与一位来宾发生恋情。该片由佩德罗·阿莫多瓦担任制片人，刻画了复仇路上的恩怨情仇，引人深思。影片还给观众一种读安布罗斯·贝尔士和罗尔德·达尔合著的系列短篇小说的感觉，堪称年度“最冒险”喜剧片。
