Plot Summary:In his small pub in the northern English town of Oldham, Harry (David Morrissey - The Walking Dead, State of Play) is something of a local celebrity. But what's the second-best hangman in England to do on the day they've abolished hanging? Amongst the cub reporters and pub regulars dying to hear Harry's reaction to the news, his old assistant Syd (Andy Nyman - Peaky Blinders, Death at a Funeral) and the peculiar Mooney (Johnny Flynn - Clouds of Sils Maria) lurk with very different motives for their visit.
Mooney这个角色很麦克唐纳,话唠,带着一种灰色的摇摆的病态气质,语言上层出不穷的小聪明掩盖不了单一的主旨,这出戏停留在“好看”的层次。
麦克唐纳的剧本虽然匠气永远很重但还是太好看了,结构也是教科书般的完美。Johnny Flynn过分优秀,演起变态完全举重若轻,感觉会是版非常棒的小丑

2018.10.20@中间影院,马丁麦克唐纳笔下的荒诞黑色喜剧,很英式,前半段铺垫,后半程高潮迭起,微妙的人物关系和紧张的戏剧张力在讽刺与批判的基调下显得尤为有趣,Mooney小哥很有戏,只是人设还是有点摸不准
舞台布景细节很赞,故事还算有趣,Johnny Flynn比较惊艳,David Morrissey演技符合预期,要是能看到二册版本就更好了
可能因为英语不好,好多笑点都觉得不好笑
刽子手和受害者的错位,背道而驰的正义和刑罚。浅白的肢体喜剧里藏着马丁对司法正义的终极愤怒,他对角色还是刻薄里藏着一点温柔,结构特别圆润漂亮。
