与丈夫(安东尼·拉帕格利亚饰)庆祝完结婚25周年后不久,丈夫出差在外,达西(琼·艾伦)在车库找电池,却无意中发现丈夫就是新闻中说的“臭名昭著的连环杀手比蒂”。 影片的小说蓝本是金2010年出版的短篇小说集《暗夜无星》(Full Dark, No Stars)中的一篇。金在接受采访时说,小说的灵感来自于2005年被捕的美国“BTK连环杀手”丹尼斯·雷德(Dennis Rader),他就有一位结婚三十四年的妻子宝拉(Paula),对他的杀人行为毫不知情。金表示,小说探讨的是,人与人之间永远不可能完全了解,即使是最爱的人也一样。
Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 源自:https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
