百年50部英文燒腦電影賞析：[10]Flightplan 空中危機(jī)

Kyle Pratt(Jodie Foster)is an American engineer based in Berlin. After her husband David(John Benjamin Hickey)fell off the roof of their building to his death, Kyle decides to bury him on Long Island, flying there with her six- year-old daughter Julia(Marlene Lawston)aboard a passenger aircraft which Kyle helped design. After falling asleep, Kyle wakes to find that Julia is missing. She begins to panic, and Captain Marcus Rich(Sean Bean)is forced to conduct a search. As none of the passengers remember seeing her daughter, Julia has no register in either the Berlin airport or the passenger manifest, and Kyle cannot find Julia's boarding pass, Marcus and the other crew members suspect that Kyle has become unhinged by her husband's death, and has imagined bringing her daughter aboard. One flight attendant Stephanie(Kate Beahan)is exceptionally unsympathetic. Faced with the crew's increasing skepticism regarding her daughter's existence, Kyle becomes increasingly desperate, Because of her increasingly erratic, panicked behavior, air marshal Gene Carson(Peter Sarsgaard)is ordered to guard and handcuff her.

Marcus receives a wire from the hospital in Berlin that says Julia was with her father when he fell off the roof and also died of internal injuries. Kyle furiously denies it. The crew believes she is delusional. A therapist(Greta Scacchi)on board tries to console her, causing Kyle to doubt her own sanity until she notices that a heart Julia had drawn earlier on the window next to her seat is real. Kyle is emboldened and convinces the therapist to let her use the bathroom. Instead of doing so, she climbs into the upper compartment and sabotages the aircraft's electronics, deploying the oxygen masks and interrupting lighting. She uses the chaos to take an elevator to the lower freight deck. She desperately searches for Julia and finally opens her husband's casket to which she emotionally breaks down. Carson finds her, puts her in handcuffs and escorts her back.

Kyle makes a final plea to Carson that she needs to search the plane upon landing. Carson considers for a moment, then “goes to speak to the captain.” He sneaks back into the freight deck to remove two explosives and a detonator concealed in David's casket then climbs down to the avionics section, revealing Julia who is sleeping(presumably drugged). He attaches the explosives to the side of the platform. At this point, it is revealed that Carson, Stephanie, and the coroner(Christian Berkel)in Berlin are part of a conspiracy. Carson tells the captain that Kyle is a hijacker and is threatening to blow up the aircraft unless the airline transfers $50,000,000 into a bank account. The conspirators killed Kyle's husband and abducted Julia in order to frame Kyle. Carson tells an unnerved Stephanie that he intends to blow up the aircraft, killing the unconscious Julia, and leave Kyle dead with the detonator in her hand.

After making an emergency landing at Goose Bay Airport in Goose Bay, Labrador, Canada, the passengers exit the aircraft as the tarmac is surrounded by U.S. FBI agents. As the captain is leaving, Kyle runs to speak to him with Carson in tow. The captain demands she give up her charade having stated that $50,000,000 demanded by her has been paid. This is the singular moment she realises how she has been manipulated. Thinking quickly Kyle demands that Carson stay on board and the crew disembark. Carson hesitates and too realises that if he refuses then it would be seen that the charade would be his,

As soon as the plane's door closes, Kyle knocks Carson unconscious, handcuffs him to a rail, and takes the detonator from his pocket. Stephanie comes out of hiding. Carson regains consciousness and fires at Kyle with a concealed gun, sending her running. He chases after Kyle shooting, until she locks herself in the cockpit. She opens a hatch door to the upper level and throws out a binder to fool him. Carson hears the upstairs thud and leaves. Kyle exits and encounters a guilt- ridden Stephanie. Stephanie panics and flees the plane,

Kyle searches avionics and finds the unconscious Julia. Garson soon follows, and while searching, tells her how he gagged and dumped her daughter into the food bin. He disparages the people aboard who would never care enough to notice. Carson points his gun to where Julia lay before, but they're not there. He turns around and sees Kyle carrying Julia, with the detonator in hand. Carson shoots at her as she closes the door. She detonates the explosives, killing Carson. Everyone watches in shock and amazement as Kyle carries her daughter out onto the tarmac.

Later, Marcus apologizes to a seated Kyle holding Julia in her arms. Stephanie is led away by FBI agents. Kyle carries Julia still unconscious through the crowd of passengers. Before loading her daughter into a van to take them away, Julia wakes up and sleepily asks “Are we there yet?” as they drive away.

卡爾·彼萊特(朱迪·福斯特飾)是一位長期居住在柏林的美國工程師。她的丈夫大衛(wèi)(約翰·本杰明·?；?從他們住處的屋頂上跌落下來意外身亡后，卡爾決定將她的丈夫埋葬在美國長島。她帶著她6歲大的女兒朱麗亞(馬勒尼·勞斯頓飾)乘坐的客機(jī)，正好是卡爾曾經(jīng)參與設(shè)計(jì)的。在卡爾迷迷糊糊一覺醒來的時(shí)候，發(fā)現(xiàn)女兒朱麗亞失蹤了。她開始變得十分驚慌，機(jī)長馬庫斯·里奇(肖恩·賓飾)不得不組織搜尋。然而沒有一個(gè)乘客記得見過她的女兒，朱麗亞沒有在柏林機(jī)場注冊過，也沒有在乘客登機(jī)表上注冊過?？栆舱也坏街禧悂喌牡菣C(jī)證，機(jī)長馬庫斯和其他機(jī)組工作人員懷疑，卡爾是被她丈夫的去世弄得有點(diǎn)精神錯(cuò)亂，想象帶著自己的女兒上了飛機(jī)。其中有一名乘務(wù)員斯帝芬妮(凱特·比罕飾)對卡爾的遭遇一點(diǎn)都不感到同情。面對機(jī)組人員越來越多的質(zhì)疑——懷疑她是否確實(shí)帶著自己的女兒上了飛機(jī)，卡爾越來越感到絕望。由于她的行為越來越古怪和恐慌，警長吉尼·卡森(彼得·薩斯加德飾)命令機(jī)警給卡爾戴上手銬并看管著她。

馬庫斯收到一份來自柏林醫(yī)院的電報(bào)，說當(dāng)朱麗亞的父親從屋頂上掉落下去的時(shí)候，他和朱麗亞在一起，并且朱麗亞由于內(nèi)傷也去世了。卡爾狂躁地否認(rèn)了這個(gè)消息。機(jī)組人員覺得她已經(jīng)是精神錯(cuò)亂，得了妄想癥。飛機(jī)上的一位治療師(格瑞塔·薩卡奇飾)試圖安慰她，這讓卡爾開始懷疑自己是否已經(jīng)神志不清了，但是當(dāng)她注意到，自己女兒朱麗亞坐在旁邊靠窗戶的位置時(shí)，在窗戶上畫的一個(gè)心形圖案還真實(shí)存在著，才肯定自己沒精神錯(cuò)亂。卡爾這個(gè)時(shí)候壯起了膽說服了那位治療師讓自己去衛(wèi)生間。但是她并沒有去衛(wèi)生間，她爬到了飛機(jī)上面一層隔間，并破壞了飛機(jī)的電氣系統(tǒng)，氧氣面罩掉落了下來，飛機(jī)上的照明也中斷了。她趁著混亂期間，乘坐電梯來到了下面貨運(yùn)甲板處。她在那里拼命地尋找著朱麗亞，最后她將自己丈夫的棺材打開了并失聲痛哭?？ㄉ业搅丝枺瑢⑺搅似饋聿⒀褐氐綑C(jī)艙。

卡爾苦苦哀求卡森，說自己需要在飛機(jī)著陸前再搜尋一遍。卡森考慮了一會(huì)，然后說道：“我去和機(jī)長談?wù)劇?rdquo;而卡森卻偷偷溜回到貨運(yùn)甲板，從大衛(wèi)的棺材里移走藏于其中的兩個(gè)爆炸物及一個(gè)引爆器，然后他向下爬到了航空電子設(shè)備那，而朱麗亞就在那昏睡著(大概是被麻醉了)。他將爆炸物綁在了兩邊的平臺處。電影演到這里，才暴露出原來卡森、斯帝芬妮和柏林那個(gè)驗(yàn)尸官(克里斯汀安娜·貝克爾飾)都是一個(gè)驚天大陰謀的成員?？ㄉ嬖V機(jī)長，卡爾是一名劫持犯并威脅說如果航空公司不將50,000,000美元匯到一個(gè)銀行賬戶里就炸毀飛機(jī)。合謀者殺死了卡爾的丈夫并誘拐了朱麗亞，都是為了設(shè)計(jì)陷害卡爾?？ㄉ嬖V焦躁不安的斯帝芬妮說：他打算炸毀飛機(jī)，殺掉昏迷中的朱麗亞，讓卡爾手拿引爆器死去。

在加拿大的蘭布拉德市鵝灣鎮(zhèn)的機(jī)場緊急迫降后，飛機(jī)上的乘客們都逃離了飛機(jī)，而停機(jī)坪已經(jīng)被美國FBI特工人員包圍了。當(dāng)機(jī)長正要離開時(shí)，卡爾跑過來和他談話，而卡森緊隨其后。機(jī)長讓她不要再演戲了，并說她要求的50,000,000美元已經(jīng)給她打到銀行賬戶上去了。直到這個(gè)時(shí)候，她才意識到自己被別人利用了。卡爾飛快地思索了一下，知道是卡森，并立刻要求卡森留在飛機(jī)上，機(jī)組人員全部下飛機(jī)?？ㄉq豫著，心里很清楚，如果他拒絕的話，那么他的假象會(huì)很快被戳穿。

當(dāng)機(jī)艙門關(guān)上的剎那，卡爾出其不意地打昏了卡森，用手銬將他拷在了一根扶手上，并將引爆器從他口袋里奪走。斯帝芬妮從躲藏的地方出來。卡森從昏迷中恢復(fù)過來，拿出他藏匿的槍朝卡爾射擊?？栄杆俚嘏荛_了。開槍未擊中卡爾后，他立刻開始追趕卡爾，直到卡爾將自己鎖在駕駛員艙里。她打開艙口一個(gè)通向上層的門，并丟過去一個(gè)活頁夾，使他誤以為自己從上面跑脫?？ㄉ牭搅藰巧系穆曧?，以為卡爾已經(jīng)從上面逃走就離開了。卡爾從駕駛艙內(nèi)出來后，遇見了負(fù)罪感深重的斯帝芬妮。斯帝芬妮感到非常害怕，逃離了飛機(jī)。

卡爾搜尋到那個(gè)航空電子室，并發(fā)現(xiàn)了昏迷不醒的女兒朱麗亞?？ㄉ芸煲驳搅四抢?，在搜尋過程中，他告訴了她，自己是如何堵住她女兒的嘴，并把她塞進(jìn)食品柜里的。他鄙視飛機(jī)上的那些人，因?yàn)槟切┤藦膩頉]有注意到這些?？ㄉ褬屩赶蛑禧悂喸?jīng)昏迷躺著的地方，但是發(fā)現(xiàn)朱麗亞已經(jīng)不在那里了。他轉(zhuǎn)過身發(fā)現(xiàn)卡爾抱著朱麗亞，手上拿著引爆器。在電子室的門將要被卡爾關(guān)上的時(shí)候，卡森立刻朝她開槍。她引爆了炸彈，殺死了卡森。每個(gè)人看到爆炸都被震驚了，看到卡爾抱著她的女兒從飛機(jī)出來走到停機(jī)坪上的時(shí)候，都非常吃驚。

后來，馬庫斯向懷抱朱麗亞坐下來的卡爾道歉。斯帝芬妮被FBI警員帶走了。卡爾抱著依然昏迷的朱麗亞穿過乘客人群。在來到要帶她們母女倆走的廂式貨車前，朱麗亞醒過來了，困倦地問道：“我們已經(jīng)到了嗎?”然后她們就離開了。
