圣诞窥礼

　　某旅行社借中国对香港行使主权之际，派贾经理与导游京京率“九七”香港旅行团，到香港旅游。由于过关时延误了时间，原在港预订的旅馆被取消了，旅行团只好暂时住进一家次等旅馆。大家非常不满，但贾经理却在窃喜，因为又可以省下一笔开销。不得已，港方负责接待的林小姐把旅行团安排在主人的豪宅里暂住。
　　贾经理暗恋着京京，而京京与林小姐的儿子周力平一见钟情，使贾经理非常失望。周力平成了旅行团的义务导游，他与京京的关系日渐亲密，这使贾经理醋意大发，多次从中作梗，但总是做茧自缚，为此闹出不少笑话。海鲜酒家聚餐，京京以汇报工作为掩护转移贾经理的注意，众人乘机要了不少海鲜，结帐时，贾大吃一惊。
　　众人客居的豪宅主人从海外回来了，这使自作主张的林小姐非常尴尬，不知如何向主人解释。不料主人非但不怪，还特邀大家作为嘉兵参加纪念“九七”香港回归大型联欢晚会。当“七一”的钟声敲响时，全场爆发出长时间的掌声和欢呼声。

　　Deserves recognition as an interesting misunderstanding of the hallucination generation, 20 January 2007
　　Author: TimothyFarrell from Worcester, MA
　　"Wild in the Streets" comes from the same school of film making that spawned other attempts to connect to the counterculture such as "Skidoo" and "Candy". The difference between this and the aforementioned films is that "Wild in the Streets" is reasonably clever and well-made. It isn't sympathetic to the counterculture and will likely offend those with fond memories of the time. Surprisingly, it was a big hit when released and appealed to the youth whom it ridiculed so much. Unlike "The Trip" and "Psych-Out" (two other AIP films), its not an accurate representation of the movement at all. However it does work as social satire.
　　The direction by Barry Shear is good and makes innovative use of split screen photography. Plus, he keeps everything moving at a quick pace. In its funny moments, the film works well. In its attempts at drama, its helplessly dated and just as funny as the humorous moments. Christopher Jones underplays his role and Shelly Winters overacts. Hal Holbrook offers the best performance and Diane Varsi achieves the right note of "grooviness". The script by Robert Thom has its moments, especially the ending (easily the most ingenious part of the film). "Wild in the Streets" isn't perfect, but deserves recognition as an interesting misunderstanding of the hallucination generation. Those into this kind of kitsch will enjoy it the most. I'd rather watch "The Trip" or "Psych-Out" however. (6/10)
