这是Richard Lester最好的一个片。
An absurdist classic
This is a wonderful surreal comedy based on the play by Spike Milligan and John Antrobus. You know that it is going to be an odd film right at the beginning, when the opening credits list the cast in order of their height. The film begins with the BBC (Frank Thornton) telling us through the facade of an old television that this is the third, or is it the fourth?, anniversary of the shortest war in history, lasting 2 hours and 28 minutes. England is now a barren landscape, littered with derelict cars and buildings, hills of old boots, broken crockery, and other debris. Forty million people perished and there are only 20 known survivors. The Queen did not survive, and of the 20 known survivors the next in line for the throne is a Mrs Ethel Schroake of 393a High Street, Leytonstone. Among the other survivors are Ralph Richardson (O Lucky Man!) as Lord Fortnum of Alamein, who isn't looking forward to his impending mutation into a bed sitting room. Michael Hordern is Bules Martin, who wears a 18-carat Hovis bread ring. Spike Milligan is a postman who wanders around and delivers some memorable dialogue, for example: "And in come the three bears - the daddy bear said, 'Who's been sleeping in my porridge?' - and the mummy bear said, 'that's no porridge, that was my wife' ". Arthur Lowe is slowly turning into a parrot (which is then eaten by Spike Milligan), while his wife, the owner of her own death certificate, turns into a wardrobe. His daughter is pregnant with a strange creature, which she has held inside her for seventeen months. Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are a pair of policemen who perpetually tell the others to "keep moving!". Moore growls a lot and turns into a dog at the end. Marty Feldman is a wellington-boot-wearing nurse. It's a hilarious, absurdist treat, and one of my treasured filmic pleasures.
一切消费主义在未来看来都是幼稚的。到底是一个土豆值钱还是把这个土豆送到你手上的人力值钱？
有点了不起的盖茨比味道，可能那个时代都是这样，不对，现代也是。
昨日可悔否，懵懵离魂身何方。
服化道太差了，把当时巴黎上流社会拍的太寒酸了
高水准制作，秒杀国产片，自由国度才有这种拍摄水平
三星半，完成度很好，但是能拿这么多凯撒大奖估计也是确实很合那些白人老头评委的胃口吧，毕竟片中的法国文化应该是他们从小长大中耳濡目染的吧？不过我倒还蛮喜欢的，看历史片也很有意思。看完出来，我和发财都惊讶道：多兰竟然一点魁北克口音都没有？
旁白过度了吧，想说的一切都通过旁白念出来，影像表达的东西就大大削弱了，不过整体还不错，很好看就是了。多兰非常帅！
影片投资超1870万欧元，这女角也太水了吧。。。
一个创业者的辛酸，以吕西安的为人处世来说，成功是偶尔性的，但灭是必然的，不用感叹那个世界，每个世界的每一个时代都是这样。期待吕西安再次回到巴黎，幻灭2.
名著已经忘了，但巴尔扎克，批判现实主义的代表作家，好像是这么背的，哈哈。呈现在大屏幕上真的很绚丽，巴黎，爱一个人就把他送到巴黎去，恨一个人也把他送到巴黎去。不会引进的，真的引进就会删掉很多，没法看。
剧作干净的没有一点多余的水分 即使很早猜到结局也会很耐心的看下去 节奏和视听语言都很不错
4.1 人物的溃败从开头的自负就可以看到了，这种人物阶级的向上流动，没有人格魅力的话，就是两种极端，无脑爽文或无聊冗长
我们何必为生命的片段而哭泣，我们的整个人生都催人泪下。
泛滥的旁白损害了整部片子的气质，导演明显缺乏用影像叙事的能力。巴尔扎克的原著应该更厉害，把整个泡沫社会以及其中异化的人尽数尸解。
过山车的经历…来回摇摆，树敌太多，也算精彩过
散发着小地主气息的十九世纪文学巨作。改编yyds
法语原声+荷兰语字幕把脑子搅得天翻地覆，但还是看懂了关键的部分，甚至一些笑点也get到了。很有代入感，就像打开一本厚重的历史传记。但那时候的法国真是讲究太多，现在这种生活方式的我觉得天差地别哈哈哈。
7.2 19世纪的巴黎俨然已经成为了如今的资本社会 一个凤凰男的崛起和堕落的故事
回过头来看，名利场的虚伪傲慢，媒体与金钱利益的较量，被时代裹挟的年轻梦想家，自我沉醉麻木，走向自我堕落幻灭，这样的故事，无论经历多少个时代的更迭，终究不停上演，一切都是腐朽。
2个半小时完全不会无聊，过程很精彩，结局更加精彩华丽！！！
