◎简 介
吉米?盖特主持王牌电视节目《儿童世界》已达33年之久,节目嘉宾斯坦利-斯派克还有三天就能打破一项由神童唐尼-史密斯30年前创下的一项纪录。斯派克深知他不过是娱乐大众的一件道具,而曾经红极一时的唐尼的处境更令人堪忧,他现在一家电器店工作。
吉米此时也有自己的烦恼,他被诊断患有癌症,活不到两个月。吉米刚过20岁的女儿克劳迪对邻居男子的迷恋搅得家庭生活不再和谐,母亲罗丝对女儿及丈夫不无忧虑。孤独的警官科林因一起噪音扰民纠纷来到吉米家,当第一眼瞧见克劳迪起,科林便陷入了一场痛苦至极的单恋中。克劳迪对父亲有一种发自内心的憎恨,女儿成了吉米最大的一块心病。这一天,吉米准备将自己不久于人世的消息告诉爱女……
同样位于南加州某山庄的另一家庭里,男主人帕特里奇爵士正躺在病床上,他也深知自己时日无多。老人的病床前站着其年轻的妻子琳达及护理医生菲尔-柏马,这两人的心情各不相同。琳达的心里不无悔意,当初她是为了老爵士的钱财嫁给他的,在老人病入膏肓之际,她发觉自己已爱上他。柏马则肩负着把离家出走多年的爱子弗兰克-迈基带到老人病榻前的重任。一场父子纠纷使得迈基再也没踏进过这个家门。求得儿子的谅解成了老人最后一个心愿。
迈基已成为著名的电视主持人,他的装扮给人一种颓废的感觉,对继母的成见使他开始憎恨世上所有女人……
一句话评论
Things fall down. People look up. And when it rains, it pours.
幕后制作
十来个人物像零乱的线头,在24小时内编织成一幅摊大饼似的画卷。影片试图展开一幅家庭关系的长卷,但有冗长之嫌,绽技巧极为抢眼,但内涵似乎不足。不同片断的衔接和呼应很讲究,歌曲的对位使用也挺有特色,尤其是汤姆?克鲁斯的出色表演,堪称他从影以来最具难度的角色。片名暗示剧中的女性,因为里面的女性角色均采用花的名字。高潮的象征意义比较晦涩。影片获柏林金熊奖。
