今年聖丹斯電影節參賽片, 本片也是導演阿奈爾·卡裡亞 (Aneil Karia)劇情長片處女作, 本·衛肖 (Ben Whishaw)主演。

小本本這次扮演一個平庸的男人Joseph, 他在機場當保安。。日常站在安全金屬探測門前幫旅客進行人工檢查。。每天與形形色色的過客打交道,工作繁瑣而沉重。。。與此同時,他孤僻、無友、離群索居。。公寓環境喧鬧、Joseph在同事間毫無存在感、父母對其淡漠、生活無味。。。他有個要金屬、玻璃等硬質物體怪異的習慣。。。

這部片子大部分用手持攝像機拍攝。。電影對普通觀影者非常不友好:故事很多時間充斥着白噪音、令人不知所措、坐立不安。。。。前30分鐘内随時放棄的沖動。。。。。就走觀者精神恍惚間。。男主崩潰了。。他發狂、打破所有的桎梏。。。于是劇情如脫缰野馬、一發不可收

...

Karia says of his protagonist:

“Though Joseph might seem to be a unique case, I hope that his story is speaking to something much more universal. Now more than ever it feels like we have had enough of surface-existence and are yearning for a deeper more present experience of the world. I hope watching this film feels like a visceral and meaningful trip.”

...

The viewer cannot help wondering whether Joseph will become a new version of Travis Bickle, the Joker or Falling Down’s D-Fens. The answer ==> ‘none of the above’ as Joseph he starts on a crime spree while passers-by completely ignore him. Karia does not intends to condemn the indifference of city dwellers, but conduct a wake-up call to a world full of anger that no one gets agitated when they run into an intimidating wacko who laughs maniacally and makes ugly faces.

觀看《沖動》本身是對觀影者心理素質的鍛煉,喜歡小本本的可以關閉音量看字幕。。。。電影本身不是我的菜。。。
