泛濫的情慾、不能控制的嫉妒！
爆發成為連串的血腥殘酷事件……
《影之車》《砂之器》推理大師野村芳太郎更上層樓高峰作！
一具女屍被發現躺臥在森林裡，被害人是23歲的的小食酒吧老闆娘，數日後，一名19歲船廠工人被捕。事件在橫濱地方法院開審。在審判過程中，許多不為人知的秘密卻一一展現。
本片是曾拍過《影之車》、《曲終魂斷》（原名《砂之器》）及《疑惑》等傑出推理電影的野村芳太郎的作品，但原作者不是經常合作的松本清張，而是較松本年輕的大岡昇平，但成績同樣可觀。男主角永島敏行以演出本片及東陽一的《三壘》走紅，是八十年代日本影壇最受歡迎的男影星之一。野村更憑本片奪得同年的亞洲電影節（後改名亞太電影節）最佳導演獎。
The body of Sakai Hatsuko, a woman of 23 who has been slain with a knife, is found in a forest. Some days later, Ueda Hiroshi, a 19-year-old shipyard worker, is arrested and charged with the murder. At Ueda's trial, a complex story unfolds. Directed by Nomura Yoshitaro, an expert in the suspense and mystery genre, The Incident is a study in unrestrained passion and jealousy. Normura's other films include several acclaimed collaborations with suspense novelist Matsumoto Seicho such as Zero Focus, The Shadow Within, The Castle of Sand and Suspicion.

A modern-day "Rashomon"
|
"The Incident" tells of the criminal trial of a young man accused of murdering his pregnant lover's sister. It is presented in a no-nonsense, almost documentary style, with the focus on the court proceedings and the testimony presented by a series of witnesses. While this story-telling technique provides interesting insights into the workings of the Japanese criminal justice system, it distances viewers from the actual characters involved in the story. The movie works a little bit like a modern-day "Rashomon", with the viewer's perspective on the case and sympathies for the defendant shifting as more and more testimony emerges. To its credit, the film presents people as they really are, with their complex mix of passions and prejudices. And the film's ambiguous ending leads one to question the ambiguity of guilt and innocence in cases like this one. I had a few problems with this presentation of the film. First, this DVD presents a fullscreen, pan-and-scan version of the film that is less than optimal; a widescreen presentation would have been better. Second, some of the English subtitles are not properly synchronized with the dialogue; sometimes the subtitle appears a few beats after someone finishes saying something. This can get confusing when there is a rapid-fire conversation taking place. Third, the second half-hour of the movie has a periodic (roughly every three or four seconds) audio disturbance that caused me to turn down the sound of the movie for a while. The director of "The Incident" has made some brilliantly atmospheric, Hitchcockian dramas. I particularly recommend his film "Zero Focus". "The Incident" is a much cruder form of film-making, but I can recommend it for its engrossing depiction of the Japanese legal system and the honest manner in which it handles its characters and story. |
