Flodder - A family to smooch is a Dutch feature film by Dick Maas from 1986. The film is part 1 of a trilogy about the asocial Flodder family. The main roles are played by Nelly Frijda , Huub Stapel and Lou Landré .

action

Thanks to Werner, the social worker, the asocial Flodder family is relocated to the Nobel district of Sonnenschein (Dutch: Zonnedael = sun valley) as part of a “socio-political experiment”, as the previous property is contaminated. The family consists of the single or non-parenting alcoholic Gertraude, called Ma, her five failed children Johnnie, Klaus (originally Kees), the daughter Kees, and the younger Tina (Toet) and Holgie (Henkie), the one in a wheelchair sitting grandfather and dog whiskey.

Within a very short time it becomes clear that they are simply out of place there. While Tina and Holgie let their grandfather race through the area with mother's whiskey as fuel and without a brake, Klaus tensions the women from the tennis club. The whole family makes life more and more difficult for the neighbors. Ma Flodder, for example, causes a serious accident with a sales car on the motorway. The grandfather dies after Tina left him alone on the level crossing. And after an attack on the family's car, they blackmail their neighbor into an expensive sports car with some sex photos. Meanwhile, Johnnie meets Yolanda, the wife of a colonel in the armed forces tank battalion. Both start an affair as Yolanda feels more and more neglected by her husband. She later separates from him and moves to the Flodders.

You and Johnnie decide to get married. At a meeting of the citizens' initiative against the Flodders, the two appear, announce their planned engagement and invite everyone to a party. Many neighbors, appalled by the engagement, go to the party anyway, believing the Flodders want to change. Werner shows up at the party to announce to the family that he has found a new house in a 'more remote' area. But Ma Flodder tells Werner and the horrified city council that she has bought the house. She had previously found 880,000 guilders in the model railway of her dead grandfather . While the family celebrates that they will stay in the sunshine, the party comes to an abrupt end when Wim, Yolanda's ex-husband, steals a tank in his barracks, goes with it to sunshine and the flodder with shots from the on-board cannon -Lays house in ruins. The party guests all survive, only Werner is buried under the rubble of the house.

When Werner later received a postcard from the Flodders in the hospital with the photo of the family and thanks that they could now live in his parents' holiday home, he crumpled up the postcard.

Locations

Ross van Lenneplaan in Sittard, there was the sign “Zonnedael” for the shooting. The southern end of the street is mostly newly built, so that only the course of the street is reminiscent of the location.

In 2016, two fans published a Flodder Film Location Tour on YouTube with a foreword by Dick Maas and Dave Schram.

The indoor scenes and the Netelweg were studio recordings in and on the studio premises at Bolderweg 22 in Almere ( ), above which the Kollenberg district of Sittard was used for the recordings. The house facades on the studio premises resemble houses in Toon Hermanssingel , Kapeller Weg and the Ross van Lenneplaan on Kollenberg.

The area contaminated in the film from which the Flodders are moving is the Finstraat and the Saint-Maartenstraat ( ) in the Sint-Jans-Molenbeek district of Brussels . The urban motorway is the Belgian N3 in Brussels ( ). The move to Sonnental leads through the Ross van Lenneplaan on the Kollenberg in Sittard. There Johnnie says hello "Hello neighbor" ( ). The later scene in which Klaus speaks to the tennis players is only a few meters further.

The chase

Molenaarlaan in Sittard

The Peugeot, avoiding the two cars, drives into the flower beds and against the rubbish bins in the Ross van Lenneplaan ( ). The drive to the dead end, on whose turning plate the lantern is knocked over, is the Molenaarlaan ( , ). With the Chevrolet, Johnnie pushes the tennis player's jaguar off the road in the northern part of Charles Beltjenslaan ( ). The swimming pool the Jaguar XJS goes into is not there.

Tina out and about with grandpa in a wheelchair

Grandpa is taken off the service cap by the neighborhood children on bicycles, whereupon Tina stabs the bicycle tire. The same passage in Charles Beltjenslaan appears in the opening credits of the first season when the Chevrolet drives through Sonnental ( ). The wheelchair starts moving on the steep slope of the Reubsaetlaan ( ). Grandpa crosses the Bemelstraat and falls into the pond of the Parc de Woluwe in the Sint-Pieters-Woluwe suburb of Brussels ( ).

At the northern end of Kapeller Weg, Grandpa separates from Tina and the dog Whiskey to watch the train ( ). Grandpa dies at the level crossing when the wheelchair tire gets stuck in the channel for the flange , shot in Delkesweg by Schin Op Geul ( ) on the Aachen – Maastricht railway line, which was still in regular service at the time .

The dispute in Van Putten's sales car ...

... starts on the studio premises. The slope on which the SRV car starts moving is the southeast end of the Reubsaetlaan on the Kollenberg. The scene shows Ma Flooder beating the neighbors with a baguette ( ). The rear door of the SRV car pops open when driving over the Drempel in the Ross van Lenneplaan ( ). At the corner of Pothastlaan, the SRV car that got out of control in the film takes two cars right of way. On the same street corner of the Chevrolet lost in the chase, the hubcap , which immediately ends up in the trash can and Tina before Steffanies favorite rabbit stolen ( ). The SRV car drives as an uncontrolled wrong- way driver at the motorway junction Ramegnis-Chin near Templeuve on the Belgian motorway 17 ( , ).

Commandant's house, called "Vlagbij"
(Kapeller Weg in Sittard )

Johnnie and Yolanda

The commandant's house, called "Vlagbij", is Kapeller Weg on the Kollenberg ( ). A little further north and earlier in the film, Johnnie meets Yolanda when the Chevrolet drives into the garbage can, pushed away from her, and Klaus steals the Polaroid camera ( ). Yolanda speaks to the au pair when she wants to land for the engagement party. At the same point on the Ross van Lenneplaan in the episode “Klaus on the Astray” of the first season, Klaus falls out of the Chevrolet when he tries to catch a beer can thrown at him. A few meters further the police control was turned when the policeman kinks the radio antenna of the Chevrolet and the hidden beer can in the glove compartment leaks over the vehicle papers. There when Ma Flodders moved to Sonnental, cigar stubs thrown from the window of the truck ended up in the neighbors' punch bowl ( ).

The car dealership of the neighbor Nettelbaum (Neuteboom) is in the Stadionplein 26 of Amsterdam. ( ).

Trivia

  • The uncut version of the film was released on VHS from the age of 18. It has now been downgraded to FSK - 16. From time to time (mostly during the nightly repetition), depending on the broadcaster, the "18+" version is broadcast.
  • Grandpa Flodder dies in the film, but is back in the third part and in the series.
  • In this film, Johnnie owns a Cadillac, while he drives a Chevrolet Impala in the first season of the series . A Chevrolet Caprice Classic from 1977 was used for the later films and episodes. Both of the same-platform vehicles were used for filming.
  • The social worker "Werner" is originally called Jacques van Kooten, or "Sjakie" for short. Johnnie greets him “Hey Werner, old wanker!” - in the original “Hey Sjakie, oude rukker”. Johnnie's youngest brother Holger (orig. Henkie) takes on this form of address.
  • Slight deviations can be seen in the synchronization, for example when the police pulls up the grandfather's destroyed wheelchair and Ma Flodder says to daughter Toet (Tina in the German version): “Toet, doe maar een bord less.” So, “Tina , you cover one plate less ”. As German synchronization: "Tina, you can his clear back plate."
  • The residential neighborhood Zonnedael where the Flodders live, has in the German versions of two different names: In the movies is the settlement sun valley , in the series episodes is of suns shining speech.

criticism

“The film flirts with violations of taboos, anarchic disorder and cynical gags, without deriving more than mere laughing effects from them; amusing only in places, annoying on the whole. "
