视频简介
When he learns his days are numbered old count Hervé de Kéraudren decides to hide in a secret alcove and to die there, just to annoy his heirs. As a result of his body not being found the latter will have to wait for five years until they can inherit the count's money. Very upsetting indeed, all the more as they are required to keep up the Kéraudren estate in the meantime. To collect money, nephews and nieces organize a Son et Lumière show at the manor while busily looking for the missing corpse. But, unexpectedly, they get killed in turns. Murders or accidents? Jean-Marie, his fiancée Micheline and his cousin Edwige investigate and finally succeed in exposing the culprit. And, the count's body being found by chance, all goes back to normal.。改编自萨尔曼·拉什迪的名作《午夜之子》，它用男主角萨利姆·希奈的一生道尽印巴复杂历史时期的人事变迁，以魔幻现实主义手法构造出一个出人意料的奇思怪想：在印度同一时刻降生的1001个孩子，能够在一个人的心灵中每夜聚会，这个会议于是成了现代印度的一面镜子。这个基本构想足以造就一部杰作，因为它不仅给了人一个新奇的意象，而且赋予《午夜之子》以史诗般广阔的画面，使观众得以从多个视角认识印度社会。电影在很大程度上遵从了原著，以自由飞腾的想象力，通过一个人的命运来审视一个民族的历史，使作品具有丰富的社会内容和深刻的思想内容。萨尔曼·拉什迪本人则担任了本片的旁白。。
