我朋友的小媽

　　貝兒（艾瑪·沃森 Emma Watson 飾）和小鎮上的其他女孩不同，是一個熱愛閱讀和幻想的姑娘，孔武有力英俊強壯的加斯頓（盧克·伊萬斯 Luke Evans 飾）發誓要娶貝兒為妻，但貝兒卻一眼看穿了他的自私和虛偽，拒不從命。某日，貝兒的父親莫里斯（凱文·克萊恩 Kevin Kline 飾）迷路誤打誤撞之下來到了一座荒涼破敗的城堡中，那里居住著樣貌可怖半人半獸的野獸（丹·史蒂文斯 Dan Stevens 飾）。　　因為偷摘了城堡里種植的玫瑰，莫里斯被野獸囚禁了起來，得知此消息的貝兒趕到城堡，要求和父親作交換。就這樣，貝兒開始了和野獸的同居生活。在會說話的茶壺太太（艾瑪·湯普森 Emma Thompson 飾）、燭臺盧米亞（伊萬·麥克格雷格 Ewan McGregor 飾）和時鐘葛士華（伊恩·麥克萊恩 Ian McKellen 飾）的照顧和幫助下，貝兒漸漸發現，野獸在丑陋的外表下，隱藏了一顆善良溫柔的心。實際上，野獸的真實身份是一位王子，因受到了女巫的詛咒而淪落至此，而貝兒，是解除詛咒最后的，也是唯一的希望。

Ay?e, 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
