一個富裕的家庭,爸媽兒子加上狗兒快樂地到湖邊的度假屋享受夏日。兩名一身高爾夫球打扮的小伙子前來,問女主人借雞蛋。無緣無故地,借蛋者變成虐待狂,先是狗兒繼而是父、母、子,無一倖免。某程度上,《你玩得起,你玩唔起》對暴力及目擊暴力的探討是「冰川三部曲」的延續,不同之處是這趟的重點在於對普羅電影及類型電影的質疑。在影片中,其中一人兩度轉向鏡頭並提問:「你在看甚麼?你幹嘛要看?」漢尼卡要觀眾退一步,想想自己到底在看甚麼,到底有怎樣的反應。康城的觀眾中途離場,並非因為不想看下去,而是已不能再看下去。
A wealthy family go on vacation to their lakeside summer house. Two well-groomed young men arrive and ask to borrow some eggs. The two then proceed, without any motive, to terrorise and then kill dog, son, father, and mother. Funny Games conducts an investigation of violence and spectatorship and is in a sense an epilogue to Haneke’s “Glaciation Trilogy”. This time the subject is more a confrontation with the shape of popular film and cinematic genre. Twice in the film, one of the killers turns to the camera and asks, “What are you looking at? Why?” Haneke challenges the viewer to draw back, think about what they are watching and consider their own reaction to it. Viewers walked out at the screening at Cannes, not because they no longer want to watch the film but simply because they can’t.
