《意外》故事架構在密蘇里州一個名為「艾比鎮」的偏僻小鎮,開場即迅速且俐落的
將劇衝突做到最大,女兒遭強暴姦殺的母親,兇手遲遲未逮,轉而將憤怒之火轉向警
察辦事不周,而手無寸鐵的白人母親對抗公權力的武器則是三塊廣告看板,而小鎮上
的意外風暴,也就從這三塊廣告牌爆發。
此片的劇本相當精彩,始於一場未破的姦殺案,接著從法蘭西絲麥朵曼飾演的母親蜜
兒芮德租下廣告牌,決心要以一己之力對抗整個小鎮的公權力後,所有事件猶如齒輪
般環環相扣,接著隱藏在社會底下的不安與問題不斷引爆,導演透過蜜兒芮德的口,
把教會比做惡棍幫派,批判了教會偽善的假面,導演透過蜜兒芮德的眼,看見公權力
的怠惰與無能,導演透過蜜兒芮德的身心,感受無助、內疚且憤怒的高張情緒,同時
法蘭西絲麥朵曼時而內斂時而奔放的詮釋,演活了飽受摧殘仍抬頭挺胸面對的母獸,
收放自如且駕輕就熟的演技讓此角色變得更立體飽滿,母親一角的人物描寫和演員表
現堪稱完美結合。
但若只是呈現單方面的立場,此劇本會變得單薄無厚度,這時加進警署的立場,同時
用整個小鎮的民眾替伍迪哈里遜飾演的警長威樂比背書,讓我們知道某些懸案不是警
局不辦,而是盡力之後仍無法解決,讓觀眾反思所謂『受害者』(母親)的執著是否被
自身的憤怒之火給無限放大,進而對別人造成傷害,更利用侏儒一角回馬槍點破母親
的偏執與不厚道,受害者無意間成為了加害者,黑色幽默的為正反兩方作出精彩辯證
在每一場精準到位的對手戲中,不斷上演角色立場間的拉扯,戲劇張力強烈且引人入勝。
當然,除了主軸環繞『姦殺懸案』外,編導更在其中加入種族、性向的種種歧視問題,
讓這件發生在小鎮的故事格局頓時放大,不再只是懸案下的喃喃低語,而是大聲疾呼
給所有銀幕前的觀眾該正視且一直存在的暴力問題,導演馬丁麥克唐納絲毫沒有令人
不耐的說教之感,但影像的呈現卻猶如當頭棒喝般重重打在你我身上。
當然,此片也有稍微可惜的地方,可惜之處在於警長威樂比自殺身亡後,導演明顯在
節奏上操之過急,中後段幾乎強硬且粗暴地將劇中角色作出轉變之舉,一把在警局燒
出的熊熊大火雖然配上威樂比的開導信,但山姆洛克威爾飾演的跋扈警官狄克森就因
此做出巨大轉變還是較難說服我,當然在警局的這場大火仍能看做導演對此角色的重
生象徵,但節奏拿捏的不平衡,後段的倉促處理仍是此片顯而易見可挑毛病的地方。
最後,導演利用19歲單純的動物園小女孩口中破題:「憤怒只會招致更多憤怒」,讓
觀眾直觀的了解憤怒之舉的連帶影響,替全片下了強而有力的結語,而片尾,狄克森
欲自殺前,打電話給蜜兒芮德告知兇手尚未歸捕,兩個將死之人一瞬轉念(母親心死、
狄克森自殺),彼此仇視的敵人竟攜手踏上執行正義之路,替整場的仇視意外劃下句點,
甚至給出角色救贖,且同時拋出問號讓觀眾自己決定接下來『復仇』道路上的發展,調
度十分精彩,也和貫串全片的黑色幽默連成一氣,後勁令人回味再三。
