Sheltering from the 1918 Spanish Flu at their seaside estate, a Progressive journalist and his socialite wife take in a mysterious grifter as a private cook. But when the plague descends on the posh island, the family and staff find themselves cut off from society and, like castaways, struggling to survive. The new cook sees an opportunity to rouse his fellow staff to re-think their stations and have the run of the mansion for themselves. Their employer suspects the cook’s coup is part of a far more sinister agenda. It is not long before the mind games between master and servant breed an all-out war for dominance over the home. Social restraints crack apart. And civility gives way to animal instincts that lurk beneath…
叛厨风暴该片以其深刻的战争描绘和人性的探讨赢得了观众的广泛赞誉。剧中的视觉效果和演员的精湛表演让人深刻体会影片的精彩之处。
这是一部非常特别的影片,没有大开大合的剧情,没有博人眼球的类型元素,没有贯穿到底的故事脉络。
充满了各种自相矛盾的观点,以及对人性的各种颠覆解读,看一遍绝对不过瘾。你每刷一遍,都能对人性有新的认知。
