　　马蒂厄已经35岁，却从未见过自己的父亲。母亲解释缘由时只推托说他是一夜情的结果。一天，他接到一个陌生来电，这个电话告诉他，他的亲生父亲刚刚过世。于是马蒂厄暂别妻子和孩子，决定飞去加拿大参加葬礼，并见见他那两个素未谋面的兄弟。在蒙特利尔，除了父亲的好友皮埃尔，没人知道他的存在与真实身份。但与此同时，马蒂厄也意识到他似乎进入了一个充满敌意的地方。

　　Malvís (Alfredo Landa) is sick of working like crazy for nothing. He'd rather become a bandit, that's much better, he's gonna be the fearful Fendetestas! He'll spread panic in the woods of his region. But there's a little problem: there aren't much people living in his region, everyone knows everyone and everyone is so poor, so is gonna be difficult that someone takes Malvís/Fendetestas too seriously.
　　This is a magic history, so funny, and full of situations that will make you laugh. It's also full of characters that belong to the Spanish idiosyncrasy: the strict priest, the Guardia Civil, the old devout women, the village idiot... there's even a lost soul wandering around the woods.
　　The great Alfredo Landa heads a cast that gathered together the best two generations of Spanish scene: from Fernando Rey to Encarna Paso, from Manuel Alexandre to María Isbert... A cast like that would be just unthinkable nowadays. "El Bosque Animado" was the first movie of José Luis Cuerda's trilogy of rural comedies (after this one he made the surreal "Amanece Que No Es Poco", and "Así En El Cielo Como En La Tierra". Those are movies so personal that stress the Spanish culture. The young directors should take note of films like "El Bosque Animado", instead of trying to be the new "enfant terrible" and imitating US worst cinema.

　　秦卫知道自己一定要用生命捍卫这个秘密，面对妻子的质问，秦卫声称自己整晚都和同事石头待在一起加班。让秦卫没有想到的是，那晚石头家中竟然发生了命案，这也就意味着，若秦卫当时真的跟石头在一起，那么他就成为了这桩命案中非常重要的一部分。为了圆谎，秦卫不得不撒下了一个又一个谎言。

　　为了维持自己的婚姻，马丁谎称这条手链是舞团的总监罗伯特（弗雷德·阿斯泰尔 Fred Astaire 饰）托他转交给希拉的，为了证明自己此言不虚，马丁还特地安排希拉和罗伯特跳了一段暧昧火辣的舞蹈。哪知道此举惊动了报刊杂志，第二天，希拉和罗伯特就已经在头版头条上订婚了。

　　In this very late 60's irreverent, almost anarchic low-budget film, Brian De Palma defines more of his strange, given Hitchcock-like fascination of voyeurism, and attacks the issues of the day. The most prominent of which, both cringe-inducing and just plain funny, is when he focuses on the black-power movement (a black woman handing out fliers asking white people 'do you know what it's like to be black'), which is something that could only work for that time and place, not before or now.
　　But one of the key things to the interest in the film is 27 year old Robert De Niro (not his first or last film with the director), who plays this character who sits in a room looking out through his telescope at women in their rooms, setting up phony deals, and in the end basically throwing bombs. Those who have said that De Niro can't act and just is himself in every movie should see this movie, if only out of some minor curiosity. A couple of times in the film it's actually not funny, as when there's a disturbance in a black-power meeting (filmed in a grainer, rougher style than the rest of the film).
　　In the end it's capped off with a rambling monologue in an interview that tops De Niro's in King of Comedy. It's pretty obvious where De Palma's career would go after this, into slightly more mainstream Hollywood territory, but all of his trademarks are here; the dark, almost nail-biting comedy, the perfectly timed style of voyeurism, and interesting usage of locals. Think if De Palma and De Niro did a Monty Python film, only even more low-budget and in its New York way just as off-the-hinges, and you got Hi, Mom! It also contains an eccentric and funny soundtrack.
