In Uruguay, they don't say cheese in front of the camera - they say whisky. Beneath the artificially photographed smiles, however, is a blueprint for the "South American Gothic," minus the farm and the forks. These Montevidean folks' stony expressions belie a life gripped frozen by accustomed routines. So it goes with an old Jewish bachelor who owns an ageing sock factory. When his estranged younger brother decides to visit for their mother's burial, he asks his employee Marta to pose as his wife. The resulting encounter creates clumsy silences that are uncomfortably comic. Grand Prize, Tokyo Film Festival and FIPRESCI prize from Cannes.
這一代的年輕人真係好老成好cool，兩個新導演還不到三十，便已拍出型到飛起黑色到痺的老人寂寞晚境。話說襪廠老闆阿積孤家寡人，寂寞到死，一天飛來鴻雁，巴西的弟弟話來拜訪。他要表面風光，唯有求忠厚下屬瑪泰暫充老婆。兩個名字同樣叫孤獨的六十幾歲人忽然親近，彆扭得不在話下。口若懸河的巴西弟弟一出現，畫面調子大轉彎。三人海邊度假，瑪泰沉睡的神經率先波動，往後發生的事估都估唔到。郭利斯馬基式冷面幽默扭橋扭到熱帶南美，黑色照舊輕描淡寫功力同樣高超，另一種風情絕對原創。去年康城驚艷，連奪國際影評人獎及原創觀點大獎。

观众对《威士忌》的评价两极分化，一方面认为剧情离谱、演员表现惊艳，另一方面认为编剧粗制滥造、剧情不合理。
它是一部值得一看的电影，通过其故事和表现手法，让观众反思剧内向观众表达的意义和人性的复杂！
这是一部非常特别的影片，没有大开大合的剧情，没有博人眼球的类型元素，没有贯穿到底的故事脉络。像是一杯温开水，看似平淡，却喝起来十分解渴。
说真的，《威士忌》看完后我真的是久久不能平静！因为这部影片确实带给人的震撼太大了！不论是剧情节奏，还是剧情尺度，都让人不敢相信这是其它剧的水平。
充满了各种自相矛盾的观点，以及对人性的各种颠覆解读，看一遍绝对不过瘾。你每刷一遍，都能对人性有新的认知。
