電影前情提要:
"It’s kind-of small town and big boredom…” is the sharp judgment that a character in Jozef Zachar’s film, Contract With the Devil, passes on any Slovak town (including its capital city). At the point when storyline examines and explains the events that have already taken place, this comment reveals the main theme of the film, namely the forms of our boredom, the protagonists of our boredom, and what to do about our boredom. It is a theme that many viewers by the end of the 1960s appreciated as interesting, provocative, or daring. However, Zachar’s film certainly does not mark a breakthrough in filmic resolution of the theme. More than anything else, this trifle of a comedy—popular with viewers—is an interesting and emblematic battlefield of carelessly wasted opportunities. It holds viewers’ attention through a series of mere hints at insubordination to the societal constraints imposed or petrified by Communism. But the unfinished, careless filmic execution of those hints shows in high definition, so to say, the limits of many filmmakers’ thinking during the precious period of relaxed Communism in the 1960s.
影評:
網(wǎng)友1:拿青春美貌和魔鬼交換,最后勝利的總是魔鬼,而人按部就班地老去,回想起來也曾這般歡樂光景,只是代價太大
網(wǎng)友2:五個叛逆少女的奇幻之旅,青春特有的糜情,充滿嘲弄幸而不殘忍。輕松諧趣都在細(xì)節(jié)表現(xiàn),扒窗那段夠直接,車窗貼紙和嬰兒車,城堡的穿堂風(fēng)是神來之筆。配樂也是相當(dāng)帶感,別有意趣。不過這演員的大舌頭……好吧,可愛~
網(wǎng)友3:捷克斯洛伐克電影真是前衛(wèi),60年代的電影版《皮囊》。
