电影美丽人生篇1
最初看到片名,我以为这部电影讲述了一个人快乐、幸福、充实的一生,毕竟,这样的一生才算美丽。影片的前半部分的确如此。影片主人公是一个风趣幽默且幸福的人,他用自己的幽默给他的妻子与儿子带来了快乐。然而,影片的后半部却是讲述他们一家在纳粹集中营的生活。主人公为了不让儿子幼小的心灵受到打击与伤害,用各种谎言善意地欺骗儿子,并告诉他:"一切只是个游戏,游戏结束后,我们便可以回家。"最后,主人公为了寻找自己的妻子而送命,但他给儿子留下的并不是集中营灰暗的回忆,而是个美丽的"游戏"。
二战结束后,有许多在集中营存活下来的人回忆往事都痛苦不堪,还有更多的人出来后患上了忧郁症,原因就是集中营的非人生活实在太过痛苦。而主人公却用一个游戏的名义掩盖了这种痛苦,让其儿子的心灵免受伤害,尽管他自己为此付出了生命。
影片中,导演用了不少夸张的手法与一些巧合更加突出地表现这一家三口的感情深厚,也为剧情的发展作了很好的铺垫。

[关键词] 《美丽人生》;喜剧;悲剧内核;对比;人性
传统意义上对于悲剧的定义,迥异于广义上的“悲观主义”;所谓悲观主义,似乎是忽略了生命的一种庄严的责任感,将其弃于深渊而不顾的消极人生态度。相反,悲剧是一种对生命强有力的刺激。悲剧的内核会让人们更加深刻领悟生命的真谛和自己应该如何对生命负责的使命感与责任感。这亦是悲剧存在的意义所在。在电影艺术中,通过演绎悲剧来对电影的主题加以深化,是极为常见的艺术手法。而为了加深悲剧的效果,电影就在很多情况下为了达到艺术层面的实现而脱离了现实的层面,有时候甚至摒弃了现实去追求情感上的升华。影片《美丽人生》中,对于现实性的“牺牲”则是通过喜剧的演绎来表达和实现的,并在导演罗布托·贝尼尼不落窠臼的“游戏式”的故事情节中完成的。同以往那种血腥残酷,缺乏人文关怀,对于战争直白描述的多数战争题材的影片相比较,《美丽人生》则在艺术层面寻求到一种能够温暖灵魂的温情“喜剧”的抒发点,并将战争中那些惨烈和人道主义的丧失掩盖在一场游戏里的乐观态度之中。从一个小人物的生活出发,讲述给我们他如何凭借着乐观的生活态度一个人战胜了那个黑暗而又强大的纳粹集中营,同时让儿子以后的人生能够不为这段经历所影响。他用生命诠释了人性在黑暗中所散发出的光芒和美丽,给我们呈现出一场美丽人生的精彩故事。通过这种喜剧,实则给我们演绎一场有血有泪的故事,超脱了现实主义的层面实现一种艺术上的升华。这种喜剧式的乐观能够敌过外在任何的黑暗与残酷,不同于对血腥的呈现沉重的惯用方法,更加能够让悲剧变得庄严而又有意义,亦能显示出人性的坚强和美丽。
影片主要给我们讲述了一个在悲惨环境中发生的“喜剧”故事。在众多对于二战犹太集中营描写的电影中,极为经典的便是《辛德勒的名单》。而与之风格和表现手法都有另辟蹊径之举的《美丽人生》,则是出其不意地用喜剧的手段在这些悲惨和荒凉中提炼出不少感动人心的成分,不断地挖掘出新鲜的元素,使得人性的美好和世间那种要用心寻求便能够找得到的温暖,让观影者在满是鲜血和死亡的恐怖氛围笼罩下的纳粹集中营里,看到了一段感人至深的美丽人生。
影片以这种独特奇妙的演绎手法,使得悲剧题材中无时不让人感知到泪中有笑、笑中亦含泪的悲喜剧色彩。使得二战题材的影片不再局限于以往血泪的昭示和鞭挞,而是转向了爱、人性美好等阳光的元素,独树一帜,使人印象深刻。影片的背景设立在二战时期德国人对犹太人发动全面的捕杀的危难环境中,从一个犹太小人物的真实而丰富的生活出发,叙述了他的命运的轨迹。即便同《辛德勒的名单》在题材上有着共同的历史背景,在风格等其他方面两者都差异巨大,它所带给观众的内心和灵魂的震撼并不是那些真实的再现完成,而是通过对比的手法,近乎反差式呈现的。多元化的内容丰富的对比让情节更为起伏跌宕,牵扯观众的情感世界的起伏。一方面是纳粹集中营的机***和毒气室,另一端却是父亲和儿子的欢笑和游戏;一面是随时面临血腥和死亡的恐惧,另一面却是父亲对儿子乐观开朗、积极向上的无限父爱以及用自己的生命换来的儿子明天美好的人生。即便在血腥的杀戮和惨无人道的环境里,乐观的父亲仍旧能够找到一片没有战争硝烟的精神世界,在那里演绎着自己的美丽人生以及儿子今后生命历程中的美丽人生。而在这种阳光开朗的心态下,纳粹如同纸老虎一般变得再也没有了力量。人性的光辉和真切的父爱面前,那种杀戮和惨无人道变得那样可笑和渺小,再也激发不起任何惶恐和畏惧。唯有人性,才能够获取敌过世间其他一切的强大力量。
一、透过游戏性的语言和故事情节
来反衬人物悲剧式的命运 影片《美丽人生》中的语言艺术总体上呈现出轻松、诙谐幽默的特点,给人留下深刻的印象。影片不仅仅通过对白来对故事情节以及画面里的内容加以彰显,更重要的是对于人物性格和形象上的展示,对于最终人物悲剧的命运的解释加以反衬和突出,让悲剧的命运更加深入人心。
纵观大部分经典的喜剧影片,大都有一个共同特征,就是主人公的命运不同于常人,大都充满了冒险和传奇色彩。然而无论在哪个时代什么环境中,人物的性格同社会之间都会有许多矛盾冲突和局限性,尤其是喜剧影片中的“传奇”性人物,通常具有不同于凡人的人生经历,在命运的手中同外在周遭环境形成主观与客观并存、人与社会、人与人之间的不寻常的内在联系。即便他们大都有着乐观豁达的性格特征,却又在实现梦想时候面对现实生活表现出无力和无奈,故而生命的历程中总是充斥着苦涩和悲凉的色调。
影片中一个典型的镜头便是在基度的儿子乔西亚在路过一家商店的时候,看到商店门口挂着一个牌子上写着“犹太人和狗禁止入内”的时候,他问爸爸为何犹太人和狗不得入内。基度的回答是:“那是因为他们不想让犹太人和狗进去而已。这个世界上每个人都有自己喜欢的东西和不喜欢的东西。每个人的喜好又都不一样,就像那家五金店,那里边的人不喜欢西班牙人和马;那里是一家药店,昨天我和一个朋友想进去的时候,我们抱着一只袋鼠,人家就不让我们进去,说他们不喜欢袋鼠。而我们家也有不喜欢的东西,我们不喜欢蜘蛛……基度用了一种孩童式的幽默的语言来对孩子解释了世界上这种与生俱来亦改变不了的不平等性以及犹太人生来的屈辱性的待遇,从而使得乔西亚幼小的心灵没有早早就蒙受灰暗的阴影,使得他纯洁的心灵没有在种族歧视的灰暗的外在环境下变得不再单纯和充满希望与美好,为了他未来更好的成长注入了阳光一样的积极的力量。在轻松诙谐的调侃中,我们却读懂影片所要表现的悲剧性的内核:二战期间犹太人遭受的不公正的待遇,人性的泯灭和道德价值的沦丧,从而揭示了二战期间影片中人物的悲惨的命运。正如俄国作家果戈理所说的一样,要透过有目共睹的笑,来揭示世人看不见的眼泪。影片还有一处典型的场景:在基度和乔西亚被送往纳粹集中营之后,基度担心在纳粹集中营的经历会在儿子幼小的心中留下难以抹去的阴影和伤痕,从而对他今后的成长造成难以抹去的伤害,于是为了巧妙地掩饰真相,基度对儿子说了一个“善意的”谎言,告诉他他们在一起玩一个游戏,并十分勇敢地在德国纳粹***官面前充当翻译,他把在德***纳粹集中营的经历对乔西亚翻译成了一场游戏,并用幽默而丰富的语言向儿子叙述了所谓的“游戏规则”:谁先得到一千分谁就能得到一架坦克”;“在游戏中得分最低的那个人将会被用一张贴有‘蠢驴’的标记贴在他的后背上。”这些孩童般的游戏话语,同外在他们即将面临的可怕而又黑暗,随时可能丢掉性命的纳粹集中营形成鲜明的对比。在这种幽默的喜剧背后,他们的生命时时刻刻受到着威胁,父亲却仍旧乐观地用自己乐观的生活态度保护着儿子幼小的心灵免于纳粹的伤害,这或许可以被称之为悲剧式伟大吧。
二、对比手法的运用,使事物的特征生动,
富有表现力和感染力 在对比中不断凸显原有的特征,让影片的情节与情感同时得到强化。从而实现美丽变得更加光彩夺目,丑陋更加难见天日。影片《美丽人生》中还有上述未提到的多处对比的手法:如原本和睦安宁的幸福生活同在德***纳粹集中营的暗无天日的生活的对比;主人公外在的平凡和内在的精神的高贵的对比,更好诠释出人生的真谛和生命的价值意义所在。影片主要给我们演绎的是发生在一个小人物小家庭的平凡故事同那个黑暗残酷、毫无人性的岁月的屠杀与战争之间的对比以及那种最为打动我们内心的、贯穿整部影片里处处流淌的温情和人性的美好同现实对人性的忽略甚至是践踏、璀璨之间的鲜明的对比。从而使得影片在一系列的对比中,将人性的美好的、闪光的成分雕刻得玲珑而又精致,让人难以忘怀。使得影片在黑暗残酷的背景下,在不变的悲剧内核的引导下,仍旧能感知到汩汩流淌的人间真情,让生活在和平年代的我们更加珍惜眼前的幸福的生活,不忘感恩。影片《美丽人生》向我们揭示了生命本来就具有的智慧和爱的正能量,并在我们的思想中留下了一道能够将未来人生照得通亮的光束。就像贝尼尼所说的这部电影的片名的来由:来自于里昂·托洛茨基——一位俄国与国际历史上地位显赫的历史***家在流放期间所说的那句震撼人心满是正能量的话,面对预知到的真实的死亡,他凝望着在花园中漫步的妻子,在纸上写下:无论结果怎么样,生命都是如此的美丽。这亦是人生美丽的真实而又永恒的含义,是生命的真谛和意义。我们无法选择甚至很多时候在外在环境的归束下无法选择我们的生命形式和人生轨迹。但是只要你有爱,知道生命的尽头,你的人生都是美丽的。就像布鲁克林《有棵树》开篇的那句,你有可能永远无法跟上生命匆匆的脚步,实现自己年轻的时候对自己许下的那些美好的期望,但是只要你活着、奋斗着、感激着生命给我们的一切馈赠——好的不好的,那便是一种实现,你的人生亦是美丽的。
三、结 语
所谓悲剧,就是把美好的事物毁灭给人看。事物有多美好,这种毁灭就有多彻底,悲剧就会多震撼人心。影片《美丽人生》却自始至终给我们一种温暖的色调,即便我们很早就预感到这个故事的悲剧的内核。这种悲剧式毁灭在这个残酷的世界中很多的时代年月里,是一种人性本善同外在冲突之间的矛盾性所导致的必然结果。美好又常常是人间喜剧,是人们终生追求的快乐和幸福。然而值得深信的是,这种毁灭始终是值得推敲且有意义的。就如同影片中主人公基度到死亡之前的所有生命时间里,给儿子的人生所造就的美好一样,让他在今后的生命中始终有着对生命本身的热爱,父爱的光辉下,他终将拥有一个灿烂美丽的人生。

摘要 一部电影能告诉人们什么?这是个仁者见仁,智者见智的问题。描述二战的电影不胜枚举,但是没有哪一部电影像《美丽人生》一样让人感受到的只有浓浓的爱,而没有其它二战电影中血腥的大屠杀。在这部电影中笔者看到了一个完美男人的形象,一个完美的男人所要具备的不仅仅是事业上的成功,更重要的是和家人一起创造一个美满和谐的家庭,做妻子的依靠和精神支柱,是孩子的保护神。
男人被赋予了很多的责任和称谓,但是在笔者眼里,家庭责任才应该是一个男人最重要的责任,丈夫和父亲才应该是最幸福的称谓。

introduction
after seeing a film, different people have different opinions. there are many films describing the second world war, many of which emphasize on the inhumanity of nazi. those films are filled with sanguinary scenes which express the slaughter. in ordinary people’s impression, the second world war is horrible memory especially for the jewish people. the audiences are convulsed by the bloody scenes again and again.
however, not all of the directors choose the same angle, there is a director choosing to use another angle to reveal the war and to produce a film called life is beautiful. it has less to do with the holocaust but more to do with the human feelings and the beautiful relationship between a husband and his wife, a father and his son. after watching the film, some audiences may be happy and some may be sad. but no such a piece of art has ever before combined laughter with tears of sadness in and after the movie. the writer does not know what feelings the audiences have after watching the film life is beautiful, but she feels really sad. and she also finds the qualities of a perfect man from the actions of the hero guido. a successful image for a husband and father is presented by guido perfectly.
a perfect man should not only be successful in career, but also pay more attention to building a harmonious family with family members and should be the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife and the protective god for his child.
ⅰ. anatomy of the film life is beautiful
a. the creative background and main plots of the film
the film life is beautiful selected its material from the jewish life in concentration camp of nazi , which was the most remarkable picture in the world war ⅱ.
in 1930s, in italy, a carefree jewish bookkeeper named guido starts a fairy tale life by courting and marring a lovely woman from a nearby city. when guido moves from the country to a large tuscan town where he falls in love with a school teacher dora. but she is already engaged to another guy, and guido uses his humor and wisdom to court his “princess” by popping up at unexpected times. dora abandons her fiancé and chooses guido.
then the film jumps ahead to the last months of the war. guido is married to dora and they have a son called giosue. guido and giosue are sent to a concentration camp because of their jewish origin. dora, who deeply loves his husband and voluntarily follows him, but is sent to another part of the camp. although the men and women are separated in the concentration camp and a child is in great peril. guido finds his special ways to communicate with dora and to hide giosue. in an attempt to hold his family together and help his son survive the horrors of a jewish concentration camp, guido imagines that the holocaust is a game, and the grand prize for the champion is a real tank.
finally, at the end of the film, little giosue cheers: “i really win the tank.” then he and his mom are rescued by the american solider.
life is beautiful is an important film; it is triumphant, timeless and sublime. it manages to entertain and educate the audiences with its potent combination of humor, poignancy, wisdom and dignity. roberto benigni has taken pure honor and turned it into a love story between a man and a woman,between a father and his son. as an actor, benigni manages with his wise and simple performance to make the audiences laugh in the tragic situations.
b. the different angle between the film life is beautiful and other films describing the jewish lives during the world warⅱ
there are too many films describing the lives of jewish during the world war ⅱ, in which schindler’s list directed by steven spielberg is the most famous one. after watching the film life is beautiful, the author found that it has less to do with the holocaust and more to do with the human feelings and the beautiful relationship between a husband and his wife, a father and his son. the holocaust provides the ultimate context that brings and highlights the story and adds yet another deep dimension to the movie. no such a piece of art has ever before combined laughter with tears of sadness in and after the movie.
the film helps in bringing the audiences to a state of mind away from reality, focusing on the feelings generated by forgetting about all external events and developments of the war. despite that, the movie does not fail to point out an element of the nazi psychology demonstrated by the doctor who was obsessed with riddles. life is really beautiful as you watch guido’s relentless efforts to make a lovely exciting experience of the concentration camp to his son. you get exhausted just watching him going through his painful day and make you smile as he speaks to his son and makes him laugh.
c. what a family should be
a family begins with a man and a woman, each created in the god’s image. a family should be a place where you can go, no matter what you have done wrong and still be loved by your family members. in a family, the man plays the most important role, he is the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife and the protective god for his child.
as everyone knows a man should earn to support his family. there is no doubt that family should be in the most important position in everyone’s mind. the family unit begins when a man shall leave his father and mother and he cleaves to his wife. this is a presentation of the man’s commitment to his wife. thus they become one flesh. how two people become one is a great mystery in life. when two people create
a new family, it means they are born again. and the marriage helps us understand how a family life should be. the couple should be loyal to each other. the husband serves his wife by giving his life for her. this does not mean he becomes her servant and jump at her every beck and call. rather, he serves her by loving her----be her reliance and spiritual mainstay. he loves her more than himself. he admires her talents and abilities and “praises her”. not only does he tell her that she is a treasure for him, but he tells other people what a wonderful wife he has.
to make your family more happy, take a long look at what is preventing you from having this ideal family relationship. for many families, there’s just a fixed pattern of non-communication when schedules differ and watching television absorbs the little time they might have together.
and in the family, father should be the protective god for his child. after the birth of child in the world, the man plays his role as a protective god. no matter what happens, he would love and protect his children. the prodigal son left his home, squandering all his money, yet, when everyone else had turned away from him, his father still welcomed him home with open, loving arms.
ⅱ. the qualities of perfect man
as a perfect man, in other words, a successful man, he should not only be successful in career, but also maintain his family to be happy and harmonious. any defects of the two sides is hard to acceptable for a perfect man. man has been endowed with many titles: leader of the society, manager of the company, son of parents, reliance for wife and protective god for children.
a. the whole image of a man
the image of man is indeed a kind of responsibility. a kind of responsibility towards society, towards wife and towards children. first and up most, as a man, he should play an important role in the society which can be called social responsibility. to some degree, man’s social image influences his development of career and future.
everybody plays different kinds of roles during different periods all through his life. and different roles endue them with different responsibilities. it’s no doubt that man is requested to undertake more in the society, many of them are considered to be the ridgepole and mainstay and should be ready to contribute to the country all the time. at the same time, they are also the mainstay of the family, he should take care of parents, wife and children. so everyone belongs to the family as well as the society.
b. man’s social image and responsibility
men are endowed with more power in the society, at the same time, they should face more pressure. in our country, the important positions almost belong to men, they are key leaders and representatives of the country. in the companies, men also play important roles, they are managers, directors or principals. in fact, responsibility is equal to pressure. the more important position he has, the more pressure he undertakes. in traditional thoughts, man should pay more attention to the development and advancement of the society.
how to contribute to the society? not all of the men are leaders of the country or managers of the company. as an ordinary man, just doing what he can do is all right. everyone has his certain position and responsibility. not only should the leaders and managers pay attention to the development of the society, but also everyone should tries his best to contribute to the society.
c. man’s family image and responsibility
people belong to the society, and more directly, people belong to family. an integral family consists of a man and a woman, in other words, of husband and wife, of parents and children. and different family members play different roles in the family. in the former section, we have discussed that the man plays an important role in the society. in the writer’s point of view, the man’s family image and responsibility is more important to them. a perfect man should not only be successful or great in the
society, but also tries his best to make his family members happy.
it’s well known that only one single people can’t compose a family. no matter how successful the man is in the society, he is also a failure without an integral family. a perfect man should pay more attention to building a harmonious family with family members and should be the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife and the protective god for his child, but should not just be successful in career.
love is supernatural, when two persons fall in love with each other, they will begin to compose a new family for their own. an ideal husband can give his wife the feeling of safety and credibility. when a man is married, many of his faults will be exposed day by day. the husband should be capable as well as practical, and at the same time be considerate for his wife. namely, an ideal husband should do well both in career and family. moreover, he should also be the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife.
in family education, women are considered to be more important. they take care of the children and educate them since the babies are born. but in the writer’s opinion, father could not keep away from family education. it’s reported that most of the nobel prize winners are influenced by their fathers deeply since their childhood. the image of father is considered to be important in the formation of the children’s personality. with the accompany of the father, the children will become more tough and more brave. to be a successful father and the protective god for the child is also an essential qualification for a perfect man. so as a man, he should pay attention to teaching the children.
ⅲ. some negative phenomena and their solutions
a. which is more important, family or career?
nowadays, under the fast development, the adults pay much attention to their career and neglect the communication with family members. when asked about their opinions of career and family, people always respond differently. some people consider it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the most important one in one’s life.
it goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life. in the first place, career can give us an aim to live on. without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted. what’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on. most of the people get their income from a job. on the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit it. family is always regarded as a place where people can escape from troubles in life. in addition, people can obtain a sense of belonging from family. without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.
nowadays, it is a society filled with money and power, many people, especially the men pursue them at all costs. in order to get more money and dominating power, many men spend most of their time in working and not caring about their family members. in their eyes, family can be regarded as a hotel or just a place to rest. but in fact, no matter how rich a man is , he can only live for several decades. it’s said that the significance of the life is not measured by the length but the depth that counts.
in the writer’s opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other. rather they can be combined with each other so that one’s life can become better and better. therefore, it’s not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical. it’s no use to spend much more time in working instead of caring about family members. no matter how successful a man is in the work, he is still a loser if not having a happy family. perfect family life is the final goal for everyone.
b. marriage’s being not only for love, but for benefit
“how much money do you have?” ”do you have a beautiful house?” ”what’s the brand of your car?” these questions are familiar to us and they are frequently used in daily life. nowadays, when two persons fall in love with each other, they should pay much attention to the reality. in some occasions, many lovers can not get married only because of lacking the martial support.
in last generation, people get married and create a new family just because of love. but people’s attitude towards love and family has changed gradually with the developing of the society. many people hold the idea that money is much more important in marriage than emotion. everyone has his own idea towards marriage and love, we should not criticize their opinions. we can not but admit that love and marriage can’t last long without the material support. but this doesn’t mean that benefit is more important than emotion. people should establish the right attitude towards the relationship between love and benefit.
it’s well known that family is the final arrangement for everyone. the biggest difference between home and hotel is that hotel is just a place for people to rest while home is full of love. so the family needs all the members to manage for it’s not the business for one single person.
c。the children’s becoming indifferent and rebellious, not wanting to communicate with parents
nowadays, more and more parents find that their children become indifferent and rebellious. facing such problems, the parents always blame the children and criticize the teachers. in their opinions, they have spend much money in supporting their education and the responsibility for training the children have been passed to the schools and teachers. so if the children become rebellious, the parents will blame the schools and teachers immediately. most of them doesn’t realize that it’s the defects of the family education. and it’s also the defects of the whole chinese family education. talking about the defects, we can summarize them as the following points:
firstly, doting on the children and neglecting the education of non-intelligence elements.
to love the children is the essentiality of the parents, but cosseting is the original love creating by the human beings. the doting degree of chinese parents towards their children is situated in the first several places all around the world. such kind of love is abnormal in the human beings. in such condition, the abnormal love will be enlarged and such ignorance will be changed into chains, and favor will be changed into trap. the strict chinese parents’ neglecting the education of non-intelligence element is another terrible phenomenon besides cosseting. in this aspect, according to their own thinking mode, many parents snuff out the children’s non-intelligent elements including mentality, emotion, volition and interest. three or four years old or even earlier, children are forced to learn chinese characters, recite poems and practice mathematics. playing is the nature for the children while ignored by the parents. the children’s self-respect, self-confidence and the ability of creating is destroyed by learning dead knowledge blindly and passively under the orders of the parents. however, child is indeed the child, no matter how many excuses in their hearts to hate such kind of teaching mode, they couldn’t find any excuse to defy their parents. they could only obey the parents who give in to the chinese traditional culture.
secondly, ignoring the establishment of the personality of independence. there is an interesting story about education focusing on the differences between chinese and western family education. when a chinese child gives his drawing to the parents, he will ask: “ you see, is my picture like or not?” in the same case, the foreign child will ask their parents: “is my picture good or not?” although there’s only little difference in using several words., in fact it has large distinction. in the same condition, there are two different answers, then two kinds of educational manners and thoughts are obvious.
it’s well known that the chinese people are wise since ancient times, but it’s also well known that they lack the abilities of creating, variation and competition. parents are the first teachers for the children, but if the teachers are educated in such an abnormal way, their old thoughts haven’t been changed with the development of the society. when the task of education turns into their responsibilities, what kind of result the next generation will face is distinct. the children haven’t been trained to own the personality of independence in such malignant circulation. in the writer’s opinion, the chinese children have penetrative understanding and feeling , it’s not the fault of the parents, but the defect of chinese family education system.
thirdly, father is far away from the family education. in chinese traditional culture, men are considered to support the family, they are free from the children’s family education. in the childhood, without the help of father, the children will become timid. but there is another phenomenon in other families that men really take part in family education, but the methods are not advisable. they hold the idea that good children are trained by the stick. it is a terrible transmigration that the children are trained by caning and they will use the same methods to train their children after being parents.
the parents should find problems from themselves instead of blaming the children and teachers. family is the responsibility for every member, men should not be free from family education. in fact , father plays a more important role in the formation of the children’s personalities. men have been endowed with many crowns in the world , but the crown of father should be the most important one.
d. some useful methods for the fathers
the writer pays more attention to the image of a man as a father and the audiences can learn some useful methods from the hero guido. the jewish people have their special ways to train their children. as everyone knows that jewish people are the most wise people in the world. the population of jewish people shares only 0.2% of it in the world, however, owns nearly 20% in the nobel prize winners, which wins respect from other people. it has deep connection with their education style, especially their family education. from the film life is beautiful, the audiences can learn some different ways to teach their children.
as a jewish father, guido uses his specific ways to educate giosue. firstly, be humorous. guido always makes his son laugh in the daily life. he knows what an important role laughter plays in their life. being optimistic is a traditional mentality for the jewish people. let’s first talk about the distinctive charm presented by the humor from jewish people. as it is known to all, jewish people suffered from countless crucifixion and tribulation, being homeless for a long time, they were annealed by such living conditions and humor was the unique return. too many sufferings had they undergone, long lasting tears and moan could not relieve their misery, only laughter can protect them and only laughter can dispel bitterness. the jew cries to god, but smiles to the people of the world; smiling on the face, but crying in the bottom of their hearts. so their laughter is filled with thick sadness and full of irony and criticism towards life. they make fun of themselves using their own laughter, purifying their soul, alleviating pain and sufferings, entertaining mind and body, pursuing dignity of life. no matter how terrible the condition is, the jewish people always find ways to make fun of the condition. just like guido in the concentration camp, he can make his son happy all the time. if the writer were the little giosue, she would have the idea that the life of the concentration camp is just a game for it’s full because it’s full of funs and interesting things.
secondly, be wise. in the movie, the hero guido’s intelligence is obvious. when little giosue was tired and wanted to give up the “competition”, guido just used several clever sentences to let him stay there voluntarily and happily. jewish people’s intelligence is well known, they move here and there and do not settle in a fixed place. thanks to the continuous moving, they can learn new knowledge from other people and keep them advanced all the time. jewish people appreciate the idea that wisdom is more important than knowledge, they consider the person who just masters knowledge and lacks wisdom as a fool ass who carries a lot of books. in jewish people’s opinion, such kind of people do not have ability to use the knowledge to practice even though they are full of knowledge. if someone keeps on learning all kinds of knowledge while does not digest it, it is just like someone owning many books while not using them ,both of them are wasting. so jewish people know that wisdom should be used. when they move to a new place, they just merge themselves with the local people and learn advanced knowledge and techniques from them. the history of their moving is just the history of their advancing. jewish people have the ability to change knowledge into wealth, so it is no doubt that they can turn up as rich every time. the wisdom makes them grow up again and again. guido knows the importance of the intelligence, and it affects little giosue step by step.
thirdly, interest is the best teacher. when the children are young, they do not know the importance of learning. only interesting things can attract their attention, guido knows what giosue likes, so he tells a lie. he tells giosue that the life of the
concentration camp is just a funny game and the winner will get a real tank as prize after the game. after watching the film, the audiences may think that it is the lie that protects little giosue, but on the other hand, we can say that it is the interest that saves him. suppose little giosue does not like the tank and is not interested in playing game, he would not take part in the game with his father. interest is the best teacher, it is just the children’s desire of something. only when he has desire, he will try his best to get things he likes, and he will feel happy instead of feeling tired.
last but not the least, the power of example is great. when jews teach their children, they always encourage them to settle a model to follow. they think that parents and family members are the direct models for their children, so they pay much attention to getting on well with each other. the relationship between the husband and wife sets the stage for children to behave in a family. if the mother shows respect for her husband, the children will respect their father. if the husband cherishes his wife, the children will honor their mother. in the movie, guido shows his deep love to dora, even in the concentration camp, guido tries his best to let dora know how much he loves her. in that case, giosue knows what an important role his mom plays in the family. jewish people also teach their children to love their mother. and they think that the good relationship between the parents is the best example for the children to know the importance of the family.
conclusion
there is no doubt that we ordinary people belong to the society, but more directly we belong to the family. nowadays, with the development of the society, people pay more attention to the social image and responsibility, especially for the man. in many people’s opinions, a successful man should be successful in career. the writer admits that a person who succeeds in the career should be admired by others. but a really perfect man should not only be successful in career but also own a happy family.
in this world, there is a kind of occupation which is round-the-clock, he who takes part in it will never retire. he should work day and night, leave, laziness and rest are not allowed. furthermore, he will never be paid, he should earn salary from other places and spend here. in the world, there is a kind of crown which is lifelong, he who will never be deprived since coroneted. however, sometimes it brings him responsibility instead of glory. this kind of occupation, this kind of crown is man. a perfect man should pay more attention to building a harmonious family with family members and he should be the reliance and spiritual mainstay for his wife and the protective god for his child, but should not just be successful in career.

碎碎语:问过好多人对于《天使爱美丽》的印象,回答很简单:它让我爱上了法国电影。一部120分钟的电影能有多大的魔力?看过之后你就知道了。
剧情简介:
爱美丽(其实翻译过来应该叫艾米莉)是个普通的法国小女孩,仅仅因为心跳过快就被她的***医父亲关在了家里,负责给她教书的不苟言笑的母亲在一次意外身亡之后,当医生的父亲也越发神经质起来,用各种稀奇古怪的方法缅怀妻子。长大后爱美丽在巴黎的一个咖啡馆做女招待,本来枯燥简单的生活被爱美丽用神奇的想像力装扮得五颜六色,她用各种古怪的爱好填满自己的生活:她喜欢把手指头伸进豆子里,用石子打水漂和拿汤匙去敲一杯杯的焦糖布丁……
当爱美丽在电视上看到戴安娜王妃车祸身亡的消息时,她震动了,因为爱美丽突然意识到生命是如此的珍贵脆弱。偶然间,她在角落里发现一个陈年铁盒子,里面都是一些小男孩的“珍宝”,她突发奇想,决定把这些“珍宝”还给当年的那个小男孩。爱美丽从邻居那里打听到了以前这家住户的名字,辗转大半个巴黎才找到那位“白***度”老大爷。爱美丽并没有选择亲手奉上的方式,她把铁盒放在了白***度回家路上的电话亭里,在他路经此亭的时候打响了它。
白***度就这样,发现了这个“上帝指引着回到身边”的铁盒,多少年的辛酸往事一股脑的涌了上来;费尽周折,爱美丽也终于看到了老头儿满脸激动的泪光,从那以后,命运悲惨的房东老大妈,孤苦独居的“玻璃老人”,诚实勤劳的水果摊小工,为了恋人死缠烂打的怪叔叔以及期待爱情的花痴同事都成为她的帮助对象,她俨然已誓死做个活***。爱美丽想方设法,总是用最令人意想不到的方式,改变他们的命运。
而爱美丽自己呢?
尼诺,***的***录影带兼职店员,偶尔在游乐场的鬼屋里装鬼吓吓人,他和爱美丽一样,也有自己古怪的嗜好,他喜欢在地铁站的照相亭捡别人拍过撕掉的一寸照片,把他们重新拼贴起来,保存到一个大本子里收集起来。地铁站里,爱美丽第一次遇见了尼诺,爱美丽的心脏扑通扑通地狂跳。她知道,自己要恋爱了。
面对爱情,爱美丽表现得相当措手不及,她想要一份与众不同的爱情,就不断地设计一次次与尼诺见面,让对方知道自己的存在却又不让他看见真实的自己。一次次地擦肩而过,让爱美丽兴奋不已,可又不由地落寞起来。在爱人的面前,她没有勇气去面对,既想献出自己的真心又不免因怯懦而退避三舍。被她帮助过的玻璃老人了解爱美丽的心情,他用一盘盘录影带启发爱美丽去勇敢地爱。
终于有一天,尼诺出现在了爱美丽的门前……
推荐理由:
本片的理由只需用一个字总结,那就是:童话。
如果直译,片名就是《爱美丽的奇妙之旅》。用我的话来说,这就是一部大型真人动画片。你见过哪部电影里照片会开玩笑、玩偶会聊天、床头灯上的陶瓷小熊会替主人把灯关掉吗?只有法国天才导演让-皮埃尔•热内能做到,只有爱美丽的世界里会有。只因为这部浪漫的电影,我们就有足够的理由爱上浪漫的法国,爱上浪漫的法国电影。区别于好莱坞的大片的“大帅哥一边拯救全世界一边热爱大美女”的故事模式,《天使爱美丽》里并没有倾城靓男靓女,一个个全是生动而又可爱的平凡人,相比之下,他们的故事更加浪漫、光彩照人。《天使爱美丽》没有一般法国电影那样枯燥乏味,但它依旧有着深刻的生活体验,它流露出了一份法国人的真实情感:像童话一样的生活。
本片女主角奥黛丽•塔***长着一张像陶瓷娃娃一样精致的脸,夸张的翘鼻子和漂亮的嘴唇使她成为了法国女孩最浪漫最标准的形象。此片之后,奥黛丽又主演了《漫长的婚约》和《达•芬奇密码》等,成为了法国影坛中的一颗新星。
电影美丽人生篇5
一、勇于抗争的紫罗兰
“美国梦”的雏形早在17世纪欧洲移民远赴美洲大陆就已经孕育。当时那些为了逃离宗教压迫、经济制裁、***治迫害的美国人祖先来到这片土地时,就悄悄地把“美国梦”烙印在心中,这也构成了“美国梦”追求自由平等的基调。也正是因为如此,美利坚合众国的创建者们将“天赋人权”的信念,和“人人生而平等”的观点写入了美国的《***宣言》。自从那个时刻开始,美国人心中便有了两个重要的精神支柱――平等和自由。在这种建国理念的驱动下,长期处在性别歧视中的女性开始重新追求自己的平等地位和自由空间。面对长期以来以男人为中心的男权社会,美国女性开始了觉醒运动,而这种思潮在《美国紫罗兰》中得到了体现。
《美国紫罗兰》取材于一个真实的故事,故事围绕一个叫作迪?罗伯茨的黑人女性展开。迪?罗伯茨是一个四个孩子的妈妈,居住在得克萨斯州。在一个蒙蒙亮的早上,迪?罗伯茨莫名其妙地被一些未被证实的证词牵连到一起***案件中。而检察官诱使无辜的迪?罗伯茨承认罪责,这遭到了迪?罗伯茨的断然拒绝。随后,迪?罗伯茨用自己的一切与得克萨斯州的权势和法律做了不懈的斗争。在斗争过程中,她体会到了强权压迫下的窒息,也深深感到追求平等和自由的艰辛。恐惧、担忧、寂寞、孤独没有使迪?罗伯茨停下追逐正义的脚步,最后在美国公民自由协会的律师的协助下,她完成了逆袭,终于公理战胜了强权,她重获新生。《美国紫罗兰》中迪?罗伯茨的故事所要表现的是,一个身份很普通甚至卑微的黑人女人一旦决定为了自由和平等而奋力反抗时,也能爆发出无限的力量。迪?罗伯茨开始拒绝强权的摆布,开始像那些以男人为核心的法律机构发起挑战,她俨然如电影的名字一样,成为追求平等、挑战强权、动摇传统的一朵美丽的美国紫罗兰。
相比于《美国紫罗兰》中的迪?罗伯茨的抗争过程,《永不妥协》则更注重美国女性精神力量的展现,主要体现了美国女性在社会中的价值。《永不妥协》也改编自真实的故事,故事讲述了一个有着三个孩子的单亲母亲爱琳迫于生计在律师事务所工作。工作过程中,爱琳无意中发现了一些蹊跷的医学票据。爱琳通过进一步的调查,发现这与一家公司的环境污染行为有关,并且附近居民的疾病皆与这些有毒的排放物有关。于是,爱琳在老律师艾德的帮助下,积极取证,并得到了周围居民的信任。最终凭借着爱琳的顽强和坚持,她替自己所的600名原告赢得了官司,而这也成为美国历史上最大的赔偿案。爱琳作为一个平凡的女性,并且对于正义的担当和对梦想的坚守都反映了新时代美国女性的特征。爱琳通过这起案件的胜诉,树立了信心,证明了自己存在的社会价值。
《美国的紫罗兰》讲述的是美国女性对自由和平等的坚守,《永不妥协》描述的是当代美国女性社会价值的实现。而校园题材的《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》体现了对女生教学方面的思考。《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》中,教师凯瑟琳常常被当成卫斯理女子学校的“另类”。她挑战传统教育体制的主张,以及对于“相夫教子”“男权至上”等观念的抵制,让她在这所以保守著称的女子学校中显得格格不入。尽管困难重重,但是“不守规矩”的凯瑟琳依旧凭借自己的努力反抗权威。凯瑟琳最后胜利了,她的胜利虽不能改变依旧保守的教育体制,但她的胜利在于通过她的宣传和启蒙,越来越多的学生开始接触和理解“妇女***”的意义,这将是促进女性***的中坚力量。凯瑟琳的微笑正是蒙娜丽莎的微笑,也是自由的微笑、平等的微笑。
《美国紫罗兰》《永不妥协》《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》分别讲述了迪?罗伯茨、爱琳和凯瑟琳等现代美国女性为了女性的自由和平等而斗争的过程,这些斗争过程体现了美国当代女性的觉醒,也体现了美国当代女性挑战传统、实现自我价值的价值观。
二、美国女性的新人生
《时尚女魔头》是美国家喻户晓的励志电影。影片中刚刚步入社会的青年安迪在一家顶级时尚杂志社实习,在实习过程中遇到了工作狂人米兰达,作为米兰达的助手,安迪不得不夜以继日地为了满足米兰达的苛刻要求而工作着。这期间,为了完成米兰达布置的一个个不可能完成的任务,安迪疏远了朋友,逃避了家庭,离开了男友,但是她依旧坚持着。最终安迪凭借出色的表现,成为米兰达的助理,并且出席了巴黎的时尚周。但是,当安迪马上就可以在时尚杂志领域大有作为时,她选择了全身而退。艰辛的工作历程和现在的光鲜艳丽,让安迪开始思考自己失去的亲情、友情和爱情,在经历重重的思考后,安迪选择了回归简单和平凡。和那些为了自由和平等抗争的美国女性不同,安迪的故事正在说明美国女性不再只为了自由、平等而抗争,而开始思考自己价值实现的方式。安迪在虚荣与理想、现实与物欲中最后选择了自信和自立,选择为自己的梦想而奋斗。
《风雨哈佛路》是一部催人振奋的励志电影。影片的主人公丽兹出身贫寒,家庭的千疮百孔令丽兹绝望,母亲酗酒,父亲进入收容所,年少的丽兹不得不独自面对凄惨的人生,她开始乞讨,开始流浪,开始经历无穷无尽的苦难。随着年龄的增加,丽兹愈发感到只有知识才能让她改变命运,走出泥淖。从此,丽兹依靠自己的坚持和顽强,感动了高中的校长,获得了接受教育的机会。随后,丽兹在她的求学之路上开始征程,她勤工俭学,用两年的时间完成了四年的课程。为了顺利地念完大学,她加倍努力,最终获得了《纽约时报》的全额奖学金。影片的最后,她的努力终于换来了世界顶尖大学哈佛大学的录取通知书。她对改变命运所做的努力,以及努力过程中所体现出来的执著信念都深深地令人感动。她也反映了美国女性对于改变自我的强烈愿望,体现了美国女性的人生观。只要你努力,你就能改变,这就是《风雨哈佛路》给我们的最大启示。
《时尚女魔头》和《风雨哈佛路》这两部影片都讲述了当代美国女性的奋斗历程。前者讲述的是美国女性价值观的实现方式,后者表现的是美国女性自我价值观实现的历程。两部影片都表现了为了梦想不懈奋斗的精神,也凸显了安迪和丽兹追求自由和***的价值观。
三、阳光下的美国女性
乐观精神是美国的名片之一,这种精神由来已久,它既继承了中世纪欧洲的幽默精神,也体现了美国的特色。这种乐观是支撑欧洲移民在美洲继续生存下来的精神力量。也正是依靠这种乐观精神,美国人开始依靠自己的双手去改变命运,从而成为生活的主宰。而美国女性的电影也反映了这些主题。电影《朱丽与朱丽娅》正是反映了这样的主题。
《朱丽与朱丽娅》讲述了两个女人和厨艺的故事。故事情节简单,思想朴素而纯净。故事中的两个平凡的女人的生活都因为对厨艺的热爱而发生了巨大改变。其中朱丽娅只是居住在法国的一个普通的家庭妇女,她很平凡,爱好美食是她唯一的爱好。出于兴趣爱好,她开始去专业的美食学校学习烹饪和料理。作为生活在法国的美国人,朱丽娅身上有着美国人的乐观精神和自我实现的追求。于是朱丽娅开始学习制作法国大餐,这对于一直由男人霸占的法国厨房来说是不小的挑战。最终,朱丽娅成功了,她积累大量的食谱,她所著作的《掌握烹饪法国菜的艺术》获得了万千美国家庭的追捧。而朱丽则是一个生活在纽约的文员,终日烦琐的生活令她感到身心疲惫,而每天的烹饪和享受美食的时光总能让她缓解工作的痛苦。她研读朱丽娅的著作,并在自己的博客上面将朱丽娅的528道食谱进行了烹饪,结果赢得了一大批粉丝的追捧。一部电影,两个任务,两个空间,整部电影在两个主人公之间切换着。她们的人生都经历了困惑、热爱、挫败和成功四个阶段。影片中的朱丽娅乐观、开朗,具有典型的美国乐观精神。她用自己爽朗的笑声赶走了自己的负面情绪,并将自己的乐观豁达表现在自己的著作中。也正是如此,生活不是很惬意的朱丽可以从朱丽娅的作品中获得力量,从而放松了自己的情绪,重新培养了对生活的热爱,也由一个普普通通的职场女性,变为大众传媒的宠儿。
影片《托斯卡纳艳阳下》正如其名字一样,也体现着美国现代女性的乐观开朗的生活态度。影片《托斯卡纳艳阳下》的主人公佛朗西斯在她35岁时遭遇了婚姻和事业的低谷,丈夫的背叛和灵感的缺失折磨着这位年轻的女诗人。生活的残酷打击令佛朗西斯变得憔悴。好心的朋友为了帮助佛朗西斯渡过难关,将她送上了前往意大利托斯卡纳的旅程。意大利托斯卡纳的旅程对佛朗西斯来说的确是一场疗伤之旅,在这里,眼前的美景令她忘却了失败的婚姻。托斯卡纳的秀美激发了她的创作灵感。在托斯卡纳,佛朗西斯重新燃起了生活的希望,她开始变得乐观和开朗。但是,当她打算在托斯卡纳永久定居时发现,想要修缮自己购买的别墅并非易事。她疲于应付邻居的阻挠和当地习俗的打扰,在她几乎要放弃在托斯卡纳定居的想法时,一场罗马之行令一切发生了改变。在浪漫之都的罗马,她遇到了自己的白马王子――帅气的古董商人。一见钟情的两个人很快陷入爱河,一段奇妙的露水姻缘后,两人开始了甜蜜的爱情生活。于是,佛朗西斯毅然决然地放弃了从前的一切,从过去婚姻失败和灵感缺失的痛苦阴影中走出,开始迎接新的生活。
《朱丽与朱丽娅》《托斯卡纳艳阳下》都讲述了处在琐碎、忙碌和失意中的美国女性通过发掘自己爱好,改变生活空间获得新生的故事,从中体现了当代美国女性乐观开朗的价值观。
电影美丽人生篇6
李丽华最后一次出现在大众视野。是在2015年第52届台湾金马奖颁奖典礼上。她坐着轮椅上台,曾在《秦香莲》里饰演她儿子的成龙半跪着为她颁终身成就奖,那一刻,怀抱奖杯的李丽华笑容灿烂。很多媒体为了渲染她的巨星地位。往往用“影坛常青树”称呼她,常青树之所以是常青树,因为她如同白先勇笔下总也不老的尹雪艳一样,永远有着蓬勃的生命力。然而,李丽华人生的波澜,远比这些更加精彩。
硬撼周璇出道,十年拼成巨星
李丽华出身梨园世家,父亲是著名小生李桂芳,母亲则是专攻老旦的张少泉。1924年7月17日,李丽华在上海出生,家里兄弟姐妹六个,李丽华排行第五。在怀孕期间,李丽华的母亲仍旧有不少演出任务,因此每次上台时都要将肚子用东西围上。因此,李丽华出生时不足两公斤,样子如同一只瘦得可怜的小猫,故取名“小咪”。
估计当时李丽华的父母也没想到,这一诙谐的小名,日后成为华语影史上一个重量级名字,在影坛,“小咪姐”这个称呼,比“李丽华”三个字还要更常被用到。估计也没多少人敢直呼这位曾经是华语影坛片酬第一高的女星的名讳。
十二岁时,李丽华随父母移居北平,师从名伶张遏云。1940年,李丽华偶然遇到当时上海艺华影业公司的总经理严春堂,美丽又性格开朗的她备受严春堂赏识,便让她参加《英烈传》的试镜,并顺利出演其中一个角色,与当时的著名小生梅熹演对手戏。
《英烈传》还没拍完,艺华便开拍《三笑》,并邀请初出茅庐的李丽华出任女主角秋香。当时国华影片公司也在拍《三笑》,出演秋香的则是当时华语影坛的“一姐”周璇。两部电影都在1940年上映,刚出道的李丽华与已出道9年的周璇正面对决,最后的结果是两部《三笑》都票房大卖,李丽华与周璇打成平手。艺华赶紧开拍《三笑》续集,继续由李丽华主演,从此李丽华在上海滩迅速成名。
如果按当今风行的审美来看,李丽华的相貌条件算不上十分优越。她个子小,脸部中庭长,额头短,是成熟艳丽的容貌,相当于“御姐的容貌配上萝莉的身高”。但换个角度看,这也可看作她的优势,女王和少女,什么都能演。她还胜在身材凹凸,玲珑有致,很多展示曲线的写真完全可与同时代西方性感美女争艳,穿起旗袍也非常合适。
此后,李丽华在艺华主演了十几部电影,出演的角色既有歌女、交际花,也有“一个打六个”的“隐身侠女”,戏路之广,令人咋舌。从小练京剧的她不仅身手了得,在《千里送京娘》中她与男主角梅熹合唱的同名主题歌,也是广为流行,她的歌喉也备受赏识。
1947年,她与石挥主演的《假凤虚凰》大受好评,第二年,文华公司将该片的英语拷贝运到美国上映,同样获得成功,李丽华在美国也一举成名。不久,李丽华南下香港发展。如果说上海时期,李丽华的影坛地位还在周璇、上官云珠等之下,那么在香港,她达到了事业的高峰,成为影坛大姐大。
除了演戏,李丽华在与电影公司的合作中还有很大的话语权,在拍《雪里红》时,她坚持启用李翰祥出任导演,这部电影成了已故香港著名导演李翰祥执导的首部电影。讲话向来“不留情面”的李翰祥一生都对“小咪姐”非常尊重,并称她对自己有提携之恩。
李翰祥在他那本嬉笑怒骂的影坛八卦巨著《三十年戏说从头》里说:小咪姐从来就是行业模范――“小咪姐尤其特别,一早进厂,就把服装穿戴整齐,坐在片场一角,轻轻地和同仁们说说笑笑,气温三十五度的天气,片场里起码超过四十度,她仍然披挂整齐,安然稳坐,最令人佩服的是滴汗不出,有道是心静自然凉也”。
巨星是巨星,工作态度没得说,片酬要价厉害,半个子不能少她,但为人也仗义,“片厂电灯匠由天桥上摔下来,小咪姐马上叫制片把他送入医院,并且吩咐他安心静养,医药费由她一人包起。”
主演好莱坞电影,走上戛纳红毯
除演戏之外,李丽华还经营有自己的电影公司。早在1954年,她便创办了丽华影片公司,并拍摄过《一鸣惊人》等影片。1958年,李丽华受邀出演美国好莱坞电影《飞虎娇娃》,成为打入好莱坞的第一位华人女演员,该片的导演弗兰克・鲍扎奇还曾获得过奥斯卡最佳导演奖。谁知在与著名影星维克多・迈彻一起拍摄时,李丽华却拒绝同男主角拍接吻戏。有一说法,称她嫌弃对方吃大蒜。日后,她做了澄清:“不是因为大蒜,而是能用演技说明的,我觉得不需要这样,我们中国人,不需要多巴结地拍外国片。”
1960年以后,银幕上的李丽华更是集万千宠爱于一身――李翰祥的《杨贵妃》中,38岁的她演尽一个女人一生的生荣死哀,获首届金马奖优等剧情片;再下一城与李导演合作《武则天》,她既有女性的性感妩媚,也有君王的霸气沉着,不怒自威,再夺金马优等剧情片;凭借与李а莺献鞯摹堆罟箦》和《武则天》,李丽华两度踏上戛纳电影节红地毯,西方媒体称她为“亚洲的伊丽莎白・泰勒”。50岁时,还能做主角的李丽华在《迎春阁风波》塑造的风情万种的女掌柜,还成为后来徐克导《新龙门客栈》时张曼玉演的金镶玉灵感原型。形象百变,皆信手拈来。李翰祥盛赞她“女明星中论风采、演技,无人能及她”。
1965年,李丽华凭借改编自张恨水小说《啼笑因缘》的电影《故都》中歌女沈凤仙一角,荣获金马奖最佳女主角奖。四年后,她又凭借在悬疑冒险间谍片《扬子江风云》中的精湛演出,二度获封金马影后。晚年,91岁高龄的李丽华更连获金马奖和金像奖两大颁奖礼的终身成就奖,可谓实至名归。
“乱世佳人”,以柔软身段与时代周旋
幕前是女王,幕后却是小女子。李丽华与导演严俊,是著名的银色夫妻。两人同样是从上海到香港,在早年就读北平辅仁大学法律系和上海大夏大学经济系。两人也都是再婚。李丽华前夫张绪谱,是山东葡萄酒大王张裕之子。严俊前妻梅村是话剧演员,离婚后严俊与和李丽华是竞争关系的电影明星林黛相恋,兜兜转转,最终情定李丽华,连拍多部电影,捧她做女主角。大概是都经过婚姻的不如意,两人婚后形影不离,并育有一子。1980年严俊客死美国,李丽华痛不欲生。后来,她与昔日友人、江苏纺织业大亨吴中一重逢,第三次走入婚姻,2006年吴中一病逝,“明月楼高休独倚”,84岁的李丽华不再出门,连照片也不拍了,愈发隐遁。
电影美丽人生篇7
《花与爱丽丝》日文原名《Hana&Alice》,跟片名一样,影片描述了这样两个拥有美丽名字姑娘的故事。少女花与爱丽丝,是一对自小一起长大的亲密好友。爱丽丝性格大胆外向,过着每个高中女生相同的生活。可这看似平静的生活因一次谎言开始发生变化,内敛的花因为暗恋高年级学长为和其交往开始编织谎言,当谎言出现破绽的时候花以出卖朋友爱丽丝作为维系谎言的方式将故事继续,于是游离在友情和爱情之间的选择成了该片表达的重点,徘徊在青春边缘那种自然和纯粹的情感在影片中尽情展现。
被誉为“日本王家卫”的岩井俊二以自己独特的创作活跃在日本乃至世界影坛。岩井俊二的电影主要以描写青春事件为主,拍摄了一系列青春片。青春片从电影诞生到现在,一直备受世界各地导演们的关注,仿佛是对那个极易流逝的年代的一种喜爱。岩井俊二几乎所有的重要电影都会被归到为“青春电影”,如《四月物语》、《烟花》、《情书》、《关于莉莉周的一切》和《花与爱丽丝》等,里面所有的争吵、难过和忧伤,这些沾染着青春气息的字眼,都在他的影片中体现出来。
一、关于影片的美学特质
曾有相关研究者认为“岩井俊二电影美学的重要部分在于故事情节的独特魅力。”[1]故事无可厚非是一部主流电影的核心,而岩井俊二独特的故事架构和叙事手法,以及影片的关照角度,则是其电影美学中重要的特征。他的故事的独特魅力在于表现出成人心中纯净的童话世界。
首先,《花与爱丽丝》中主题的存在感都是建立于一种和现实稍有脱节的设置中,电车上的偶遇,两个女生旁若无人的交谈,男主人公奇特的性格和类似于脱离现实的两次晕倒,暂时性失忆都为后来情节的发展打下基础,带来了强烈的戏剧性,冲淡了故事本身的真实性。这一叙述的运用更好的将故事进程渲染成了类似小小说那种超出意料之外,却在情理之中的感觉。
“放眼于描写普通生活的场景,发掘一般所不能轻易察觉的角落,这基本可以概括成岩井俊二对于故事发生背景的设置的基本准则。”[2]杂乱却内容丰富的房间、四处喧哗却不失激情的学校社团、充满了温暖光线的咖啡店、散落着樱花的街道……这些在日本司空见惯的场景都成了影片讲述故事的道具。不同于传统日本电影,注重搭景和单面化,岩井俊二认为纯粹的写实已不能满足新时代电影注重立体空间感的需求。从其电影中可以看出,每个人都是在***展现自己的生活。
二、女性主义的影像呈现
从影片的视角来看,故事运用女性主义的叙事手法,花和爱丽丝不经意地小动作,生活的轨迹,包括整个电影那段核心的三角恋的谎言几乎占据了整个故事的大部分细节,甚至连臆想出宫本雅志这个有着同样细腻情感的白马王子也充满了女性期待中的浪漫色彩。这样的叙事结构无疑是导演仿照女性思维所展现的。
从影片的画面来看,岩井俊二的这部影片与前期的《关于莉莉周的一切》和《四月物语》一样,都是以唯美著称。
从画面颜色的运用来看,在岩井俊二的电影中,每一部影片都会有一种主要的色彩来表达感情。如《爱的捆绑》中大量运用的橘色;《关于莉莉周的一切》中大片大片稻田的青色等。每一种色彩都是与电影表达的主题有密切联系。在本片中色彩运用正体现出女性纯洁的一面。正如爱丽丝去应征模特一职时那段芭蕾舞的展现:门窗、墙壁、地板、飘逸的窗帘、爱丽丝的衣服都是白色的。而光线又打得很强烈,给人很强的冲击感,就像置身于阳光明媚午后的房间。
从结构上来看,本部影片的结构性不是很强,是一种类似散文般的剪辑。影片开头对两位主人公生活的勾画,后来花的暗恋,爱丽丝的明星梦等,没有刻意的叙述故事流程,而是将点滴以一种型散而意不散的方式展现。那种特定的诗性的叙述方式,更迎合女性观众的审美,将其婉约和感性从影片的结构感中变现出来。
·外国电影评论唐仁跃:多向影像视野中的《花与爱丽丝》 谈到该片的女性主义特性,不能不提及日本文化中对女性美的理解。日本特定的地理环境和气候环境决定了它的生产方式是以农耕为主。所以,在日本民族的心中农业有着极其重要的地位。而“日本原始社会是母系社会,女性因为能进行耕作而在家族中有了很高的地位。因此,这引发了他们把女性审美同植物的审美互渗,促成了以自然植物形态、姿势比喻女性之美的表现形式。”[3]与西方观念认为女性是男人的依附不同,无论是日本民族的绘画还是传统文学作品中,我们经常能看到将女性作为主要的审美对象。岩井俊二虽身为一位日本男性导演,但却始终受日本传统文化影响,认同女性的审美地位,所以岩井俊二的电影作品中主角大都是女性,都是以女性的视角讲述整个故事。从他电影作品来看,更多的是一个个具有自己独特性格的女性形象。《情书》中渡边博子是这个故事的叙述者;《梦旅人》中叛逆的可可;《燕尾蝶》中一心想要蜕变的凤蝶;《花与爱丽丝》中讲述的花与爱丽丝的青春故事,他们都是导演镜头中日本女子的代表。无论哪一种女性形象,导演只是以一个客观的角度对其进行描述。
三、女性主义影像符号意象
在分析了影片画面和结构的同时还可以看到影片中采用的大量的符号语言,从那些充满女性气息特殊的符号上将女性电影的细腻体现得淋漓尽致。
(一)樱花
在传统日本文化中,樱花是美好青春的象征,在《花与爱丽丝》中,可以多次看到种满樱花树的街道,两个女主人中穿梭在漫天飞舞的樱花中,正迎合了导演表现的青春主题和女性故事。
另一个侧面,本片的主人公花的名字也正是对该符号的一种映 衬。导演在人物安排上就暗示出其正青春美好,羞涩内敛恰如花一般。而在影片中花的小屋正是建在花园中的,房屋周围围绕着各色的花朵,就连房屋内的窗帘、墙纸都印着大朵的鲜花,将女性尤其是青春期女性那种爱美意识和自觉内心是公主的感觉表现出来。
(二)风
风,常常导演用来体现感情的若有似无。其柔和与细腻不失为女性电影中女性特殊情感的象征符号性体现。《花与爱丽丝》中也多次出现对风的描写。在风中漫天飞舞的樱花,渲染出青春美好的同时更带上一丝绮丽。还有当三人纠结于各自的爱情时有一幕场景,花和爱丽丝一起在海边玩扑克牌。花和爱丽丝打赌,如果谁找到红桃A谁就成为学长的女朋友,为此两人不停在沙滩上寻找着,最后爱丽丝找到了红桃A,可是为了友谊她放弃了,于是便把手中的扑克牌抛向空中,扑克牌随着海风四处吹散。红桃A似乎成了两位少女爱情的象征,但是却被风给吹走了。也是因为扑克牌的随风飞舞,才让人感觉到了这海风的存在,这里的海风似乎犹如爱丽丝对学长的爱情一般,还没有开始可却又不得不结束了。“风”在岩井俊二的这部影片中似乎更多地传达了这段青春中美好的暗恋的瞬间存在,短到没有人发觉。
(三)雪
电影从一开始长达十几分钟的片子一直是两个女生在雪地里行走,时而因寒冷而瑟缩,时而在雪地里相互掷雪嬉戏,时而在厚厚的雪层上蹦跳游戏。即便是在电车飞速行走时,主人公的目光仍是一直眺望着窗外的雪景。那一片肃穆的白似乎将故事发生的背景***化,成为一个超脱现实的特定场景,使片中故事建立在了一个与世俗和社会无关的成人童话的境地。
(四)芭蕾舞
在大多数人的观念里,舞蹈尤其是芭蕾舞是女性美的象征。本片中多次出现了花与爱丽丝在芭蕾舞班上课的场景。尤其是中学毕业时在片中作为摄影爱好者的同学为她们拍摄的那一组芭蕾的照片,各色姿态和光影的营造下,将女性的姿态美也体现得淋漓尽致。影片将近结尾处,爱丽丝有一段长达几分钟的***芭蕾舞表演,光调柔和动作流畅并辅以舒缓的音乐,虽有拼接的效果但不失为是全篇的一个亮点,使观众的情绪在此过程中升华。这一段女主人公将自己身心彻底释放,脚步轻盈,旋转如飞,这种伴随真实情感流露的纯粹表演是少女青春与美最透彻的展现。
四、酷儿主义的影像构成
若将该片归结为女性主义电影似乎是无可厚非的,但是整部影片却没有从表面上看起来那么简单。当“新酷儿电影”在上个世纪90年代被广泛运用于一批英语低成本***制作的影片时,酷儿电影的浪潮也不可避免的波及并影响到其他民族和国家的电影。
但在日本甚至亚洲的电影中,酷儿主义在一定程度上有了新的含义,并非一定是同性间的恋爱,而是可以从多个方面来体现,包括对既定的社会习俗、生活观念、性别身份和欲望认同的转变。只要挑战了传统正规的界限都可以将其酷儿身份认同。
影片中占大段篇幅的是三个主人公爱情间的纠葛,但从一开始的定位上就可以看出其中男女关系的倒置。女主角花,看似天性羞怯,但在爱情甚至是心理上她是强势的,她一改了岩井俊二之前影片女主角在感情中处于被动的状态。从花喜欢上学长宫本开始,她一直处于积极的位置。而宫本学长则是处于从属的、被动的位置。花与学长看完电影出来,红绿灯路口宫本一直被花紧握手拉扯着冲到了马路对面。从两人的奔跑能够看出来,花跑在最前面满脸都是喜悦,而宫本却是一脸的无奈的表情。角色间的倒置使得观众自然而然的将视点集中到了女性身上。在二人的交往中花一直是占据着支配的地位的。从交往、表白都是她掌握了主动权。影片中导演彻底地颠覆了东方观念中男尊女卑或者男女平等的概念,而将女性的地位提升了高度。
学长宫本一直按照花所给的“剧本”进行着他们两个人的恋爱,在花所编织的谎言面前,宫本完全失去了支配的权利。而在爱丽丝的面前,他还丧失了作为一个男性应该与女性所具有的平等的对话权利。当爱丽丝同他一起“回忆”过去相恋时候所度过的美好时光时,一直都是爱丽丝在自顾自地诉说。在花和爱丽丝的面前,作为男性代表的宫本成了一个“配角”。
除此之外,电影中另一个被颠覆了主导地位的男性便是爱丽丝的父亲。在爱丽丝的眼中,他只是一个一年中看不到几次的人,作为“父亲”的权利象征在慢慢地消失。更可以提及的是爱丽丝的母亲,她虽是女性形象,但作为一个母亲她的角色也是被颠覆的。在餐厅里爱丽丝偶遇母亲和母亲的男友,母亲并没有将自己的身份表露,而是假装爱丽丝是隔壁的孩子。在爱丽丝的家里也不难看出母女身份倒置,母亲更像是一个被照顾的孩子,而爱丽丝则扮演着照顾母亲的角色。
另一个方面,在爱丽丝与花这对年青的女性角色身上,也看到了那种超出友谊的感情。在爱丽丝和花交往的生活中,花更像是一个男性角色,她们在第一次试穿高中校服时,爱丽丝拉群后撤做公主状,而花则举手叉腰类同王子。在花游离在学长跟爱丽丝之间时,花与爱丽丝的关系更像是情人间的吃醋,一种对友谊甚是是爱情的割离。
《花与爱丽丝》是岩井俊二所拍摄的唯一一部喜剧。从片中主人公的姓名就可以看出该片整体基调的欢快和活泼。虽然在剧中少不了谎言和背叛,但整体观看下来是轻松且惬意的。正如这俏似童话的片名,导演取这样的题目就是要给观众讲述一个关于青春的童话。相比岩井俊二以往作品当中要么哀伤,要么残酷的青春作品,本部影片看起来更像是一部相关成长的青春喜剧。

尝试多元戏路
说起金奎丽,大家也许以为是个新人,但金敏善的名字相信不少人都听说过。其实金敏善就是金奎丽的艺名,不过3年前,她用回了本名金奎丽。
和韩国众多女星出道的经历一样,金奎丽也是以模特身份进入演艺圈的。1997年,18岁的金奎丽登上了韩国某著名时尚杂志的封面,继而又拍了多个平面和电视广告,由此被发掘出演电影《女高怪谈2:交换日记》。这是一部以女子高中为背景展开的恐怖片,虽说是第一次触电,但金奎丽却发挥了那与生俱来的对表演的灵性,把女高中生复杂细致的心理刻画得淋漓尽致,连捧两座最佳新人奖,一时成为电影圈最被看好的新秀。
金奎丽是一个不喜欢重复自己的演员,不断拓宽戏路成为她演戏的首要目标。这些年,她先后尝试了多种角色,比如在《贤贞,我爱你》里饰演被富二代爱上的穷家女孩,展现了现代灰姑娘直率真实的一面:《仙女与骗子》中她饰演继承了巨额遗产的富家女,单纯的个性相当讨人喜欢,而在《爱情中毒》里,她又以冷静理性却为爱情中毒的女教师的形象出现,与安七炫饰演的学生展开了一段不为世俗接受的师生恋,在《汉江水打令》里她扮演贪慕虚荣的拜金女郎娜英,以嫁八豪门为人生目标:在《假面》里则出演女瞽,敏捷的身手一展其硬朗的一面:而在《英宰的全盛时代》中,她更是将自己的漂亮形象收埋,饰演一心扑在事业上,年过30依然独处的老姑娘英宰,演绎了一回韩国的剩女。
值得一提的是,金奎丽在电视剧《玻璃鞋》里挑战出演了一个为满足一己私欲而不择手段的恶女角色,被人评价说是。眼神里就透露着恶毒‘,也证明了她演出的成功。就连大导演林权泽也称赞金奎丽是一位凭借超越年龄的伶俐感和出众的爆发力而拥有无限可能性的女演员,邀请她出演其作品《下流人生》里的女主角,影片还受邀参加了威尼斯电影节。
尽管片约不断,演技也备受赞赏,还拿到了电视台颁发的优秀演技奖,但金奎丽却一直未能大红大紫。对她而言,虽然坚强自信却略显平凡,虽然漂亮却不够诱惑力的这种感觉,是她的一个致命弱点。金奎丽也坦言自己缺乏一个突围而出的机会,但她相信机会是留给有准备的人,所以她认真演好每个角色,积累演出经验,等待属于自己的机会来临。她说:“演员是一项空虚的职业,不但要在摄影机前表现自己,还要扎根于日常生活,不停地学习新东西,只有这样才能表现出扎实的演技。”
在《美人***》中绽放
2008年,金奎丽在偶然机会下读到了《美人***》的剧本,立刻就被申润福这个天才画家深深吸引了。申润福是韩国历史上的名画家,为了画画,放弃女儿身,女扮男装顶替哥哥的身份进入画院,传奇的一生为人乐道。
金奎丽并不是第一个塑造申润福的演员,在同期拍摄的电视剧《风之画院》中,文根英就因成功塑造了这人物而广受好评。而且电视剧先于电影上映,金奎丽再演同一角色所要承受的压力自然不小。不过《风之画院》刻画的是申润福坎坷传奇的一生,《美人***》则是围绕申润福的代表作《美人***》,讲述了一个悱恻缠绵的爱情故事。
盘着发簪,穿着小褂和长裤,扮成男装的女人申润福诞生了。“抛开演员的身份不谈,每个女人都希望留下自己年轻时最美丽的身影,这次工作人员帮我找到了最美丽的一面,让我更加有自信了。”在拍摄现场,金奎丽的手指从来没离开过画笔和宣纸,有空就练习画画,并深深地沉迷其中,最后到了可以不用看着申润福的画就能模仿出来的程度。她表示,有时候为了投入到角色中,演员需要动用个人的情感,但扮演申润福的时候,却根本没有这个必要,因为她从申润福的身上找到了自己的身影。母亲过世后的好几年里,金奎丽虽然一直在拍戏,却―直没有从失去母亲的痛苦中摆脱出来,生活始终处于恐慌状态,大部分时间都待在家里很少与朋友和外界联系,有点自我封闭。遇见申润福,金奎丽意识到等待多年的机会终于来了,她终于为自己挑选到了一件最合身的”衣服”。
《美人***》备受关注的另一个卖点就是片中大胆的激情戏,金奎丽坦言在拍摄前有过很长一段时间的迷惑和犹豫,但是看完剧本后她觉得,这段戏是为了表现申润福作为女性重获新的生命、仿佛新鲜的花蕾初次绽放一样的瞬间,是影片不可缺少的部分,因此愿意去演绎这场戏。在金奎丽全身心地表现下,她塑造的申润福彷如重生,形象鲜活。该片的观影人次接近300万,不但是金奎丽演员生涯里最卖座的电影,更让她获得了大钟奖影后的提名,演艺事业攀上了高峰。
多才多艺的女演员
近年来,在影坛发展得如鱼得水的金奎丽,接连在《西洋古董洋果子店》《五感***》《郑必久失踪事件》《夏夏夏》《爱情真可怕》等片中给大家带来惊艳的演出,特别是去年她以零片酬出演金基德导演的《丰山犬》,更是让人刮目相看。金奎丽表示,《丰山犬》是一部很好的作品,但投资只有21乙韩元(约合人民币120万),而自己实在没有理由拒绝这部好戏,所以就索性不要片酬,把自己的那一份酬劳用到制作里。为了拍摄一场在水塘的裸身戏,金奎丽在12月的寒冬亲身下水塘,没有任何畏难情绪,竭力将女主角的复杂心态表现到极致。
眼下,金奎丽又推出了两部新作,一部是阔别电视圈几年的久违之作《武神》,这是她出道十多年来第一次以历史剧女主角亮相荧屏,古装扮相清丽可人。而在4月即将公映的电影《人类死亡报告书》中,金奎丽则首次挑战科幻题材,影片讲述了在未来地球灭亡之际世界各地发生的故事,金奎丽在戏里饰演努力保护机器人的尼姑。相信不论是造型还是演出,都会让人眼前一亮。
虽然身处五光十色的娱乐圈,但金奎丽却一直秉承着低调的风格,她很少有绯闻,不拍戏的时候,她多半都是待在家里陪父亲。以前她踉爸爸的交流并不多,自从母亲过世后,两父女相处时间多了,感情比以前更加深厚。在决定拍《美人***》的时候,她感到最困难的事情并不是拍脱戏,而是怎么告诉父亲这件事。
电影美丽人生篇9
《达・芬奇密码》中那个多愁善感、古灵精怪,甚至有些神经质和怪癖的“爱美丽”,你能想象出她在现实世界中的样子吗?
“爱美丽”的眼睛古灵精怪
她是个女人,却始终像个有点儿神经质的小姑娘。
她有着种种怪癖:她走路一定要避开梯子,绝对不从梯子底下穿过;她喜欢敲击木头,聆听木头深处发出的声音;她有一些迷信,害怕黑猫从自己面前蹿过,所以尽量离它们远远的;她和作家拉内・马兹玛尼安已经订婚,可她坚持让自己的感情变成众所周知的秘密……但是,这些并不妨碍她成为一个优秀的演员,因为她是奥黛丽・塔***。
所以,当那部法国电影《天使爱美丽》风靡全世界,人们毫不意外地在海报上见到了奥黛丽・塔***微笑的脸庞和精灵的双眼。特别是她的双眼,那里面盛满了纯真乖巧和古灵精怪,她从此被人称做“靠眼睛征服世界的少女”。与其说“爱美丽”让塔***演活了,倒不如说生活中的塔***其实就是“爱美丽”――她的天真、善良,多愁善感,甚至她那可爱的微微的神经质和怪癖,都是“爱美丽”的影子。
轻松地变身“爱美丽”,在奥黛丽・塔***看来不算演技的挑战。她说:“我终于不用花时间去背大段大段的台词了!让・皮埃尔真是天才,他为‘爱美丽’创造的个人世界是如此的敏感、丰富和与众不同,而我只给这个角色添加了我的面孔和声音。”
但摘掉天使光环的奥黛丽・塔***并没有过着真空的快乐生活。“我是一个有情绪起落的普通人,有时很悲观。”她剖析自己内心鲜为人知的角落,“我也不想去了解,我活着又不是为了问自己一堆问题。”
在法国影坛,能够走红的女演员或多或少有一些悲天悯人的气质,即使她在微笑,你却依然可以感到泪水的湿润。因此,正当奥黛丽・塔***的影迷们发誓会永远爱她的时候,她却认为自己不会在喜爱自己的观众心目中停驻太久……
从“猴子”变为天使
自呱呱坠地到长大成人,外貌似乎从未给奥黛丽・塔***带来过惊喜,因为在她的出生地布蒙,质朴的女孩才会受到大人们喜爱。作为牙医父亲和教师母亲的女儿,孩童时代的奥黛丽・塔***一度立志当自然科学家,喜欢猴子的她甚至还想过“要和猴子们打成一片,天天爬到树上学猴叫”。
从“猴子”变为天使,这个过程有点儿漫长。最初还是缘于奥黛丽・塔***在中规中矩生活中那一点儿不安分的念头――她喜欢表演。她知道自己并不美丽,所以,她专门学习了表演课程,并为此来到巴黎寻求发展。
奥黛丽・塔***最大的失误,恐怕还是将落脚点选在一家超级模特经纪公司附近,这让她领教到了真正的自卑。漂亮女人在巴黎向来就不属于稀有物种,而在奥黛丽・塔***的住宅周围更是美女如云,每天奥黛丽・塔***都会“痛苦”地与那些面容俏丽、身材火辣的女模特们擦肩而过,相比之下,奥黛丽・塔***发现自己那163厘米的身高是多么的微不足道,无论穿上怎样的华衣美服,都显得单薄苍白,没有神采。
正当自认是丑小鸭的奥黛丽・塔***打算收拾行囊回家的时候,她突然意识到在竞争面前姿色并不能决定一切,她需要等待的只是机遇而已。
她开始在每天起床后,对着镜子里的自己说:“你很不错,非常可爱。”以增加自信。即便如此,她依旧坦承自己称不上“漂亮”。“‘漂亮’”这个词是用来形容莫妮卡・贝鲁奇和朱丽娅・罗伯茨那样的女人的。”现在的奥黛丽・塔***仍会这样笑着说,“至于我,只希望尽可能提升自己的潜力,这样,相貌看起来就会舒服点儿。”
好在奥黛丽・塔***拥有一双摄人心魄的眼睛和清新自然的气质,这就足够了。出演电影《维纳斯美容院》时,托尼・马歇尔曾担心这个害羞的女孩会把戏演砸,因为那时的她看起来“耳朵奇怪地兜着,头发也乱得可怕,就像一个赤着脚的野孩子“。但是,当摄像机对准她,奥黛丽・塔***立刻变得生动起来,“她那双明亮的眼睛就像盛夏的黑葡萄,闪烁着水彩一般的明快,所有人都被她吸引了”。
是的,所有人,其中当然包括导演让・皮埃尔。于是,继《天使在人间》的主演埃玛纽尔・贝阿之后,奥黛丽・塔***这个新一代“法国天使”诞生了。
密码的4年与10天
“爱美丽”,这个身份好像一个精美的烙印,一旦被打上,似乎就永远无法洗刷掉。
幸好奥黛丽・塔***也无意结束当天使的日子,她坚持留在法国,继续与《天使爱美丽》的原班人马合作了《漫长的婚约》。她以特有的、法国式的冷漠,拒绝了好莱坞整整4年,直到朗・霍华德带着《达・芬奇密码》剧本找到她。
很少有电影会像《达・芬奇密码》那样受人关注――丹・布朗的原著曾是最畅销的小说,搬上大银幕后,又选定老牌影帝汤姆・汉克斯出任男主角,并由获得奥斯卡奖的朗・霍华德执导,甚至于预告片一经推出,便造成网络堵塞……
“2004年年底,我去多伦多为自己的新片《漫长的婚约》做宣传,没想到几乎所有媒体都恭喜我获得了电影《达・芬奇密码》的女主角,这真让我莫名其妙!要知道,我只不过刚在度假时看完了这本有名的小说――很精彩,让人印象深刻。至于朗・霍华德,我与他素未谋面,也没有任何人告诉我那部电影的消息。我想,这只不过是个谣传。”
正式接到朗・霍华德的邀约,是在2004年12月。不过,这个邀约显然还不如墨西哥的游泳池更具诱惑,她决定继续享受自己的假期,居然放弃了与朗・霍华德在巴黎的会面。奥黛丽・塔***认为,自己26岁的年龄对于索菲・纳芙(《达・芬奇密码》的女主角)来说还是太年轻了,她就这样打发了朗・霍华德和一部惊世电影。
一个月后,一封E-Mail彻底改变了奥黛丽・塔***之后的生活。信上写道:“朗・霍华德很想见你,尽快赶来洛杉矶,与汤姆・汉克斯试镜。”
与汤姆・汉克斯见面,这或许是《达・芬奇密码》拍摄前最让奥黛丽・塔***兴奋的事儿了。“当我到达剧组时,发现坐在一边喝咖啡的男人正是汤姆・汉克斯,我觉得自己的心跳都加速了。”
试镜结束的当天晚上,当奥黛丽・塔***打开关闭的手机,发现在30分钟内竟有11个未接电话,它们来自同一个美国。于是,她立刻回电给朗・霍华德,正在卢浮宫选景的导演只给了她一句回答:“就是你了。”如同“达・芬奇密码”般曲折的选角故事,短短10天就有了一个结局。
现在,奥黛丽・塔***的生活又回到以往的样子,当《达・芬奇密码》的电影海报陆续悬挂到世界各大城市的街头,漫步于好莱坞的奥黛丽・塔***依旧坚持不从梯子底下穿过,并记得躲开黑猫远远的,而她和作家拉内・马兹玛尼安的订婚依旧是一个众所周知的秘密……

电影美丽人生篇10
[关键词]《美国丽人》 美国社会 “美”的概念
《美国丽人》在第72届奥斯卡领奖会上独揽五项大奖:最佳影片、最佳主角、最佳导演、最佳原创剧本和最佳摄影。这部影片在美国好评如潮,但很多中国观众看后却是一头雾水,所以本文尝试从电影的题目American Beauty出发。以当代美国社会中“美”的概念为切入点,力***从整体上准确把握电影的呈现形式和社会意义,从而深入挖掘这部电影的主题和结构的内在联系,为《美国丽人》的进一步研究提供了一个新的视角。
电影的题目American Beauty已经指出了它的一个重要主题:当代美国社会中“美”的概念。事实上,这部电影引发了一系列在当代美国人心目中有关“美”的问题:“什么是美?”“美为什么重要”以及“当我们放弃每天一成不变的生活来追求美时,会发生什么?”在《美国丽人》中美的代言人是里基。极度沉迷于DV摄影的里基似乎跟普通人很不一样,有某种程度上的自溺,但他却是活得最真实的人。他拍摄所有他观察到的“美”:Jane的眼睛、飞舞的塑胶袋、甚至死去的白鸟,他其实是活在一个最贴近自己的世界。在电影进行到一半左右的地方,给莱斯特的女儿简看他所拍过的“最美丽的影片”。片断里是一个迎风飞舞的透明塑胶袋,贴着红砖墙角不断飘动,飞上、飞下,左移、右飘,停留、旋转,伴随着满地枯黄的落叶,恣意飞扬。而那镜头就只是跟随着塑胶袋,锁定它曼妙的舞姿,幽雅而缓慢地舞动,一会儿好像即将要贴到地面,忽然一阵风又使它拔高飞起;画面停留在影片上,镜头越来越近,配合着阴郁单调的音乐,刹那间时间仿佛停止,只剩下那单纯的节奏紧扣观众的内心。风中的塑料袋表面看起来无章可循,却暗示了更高层次规律的存在,这种规律使塑料袋的飞扬转变成具有吸引力的美丽风景。它美,第一是因为它暗示着世间万物,即使是(或者尤其是)那些最不被人珍惜、没有意义的东西背后,都有着某种“生命”,――宇宙中一种与人为善的力量;第二是因为它培养了一种看待事物和理解事物的方法,美无处不在,只要用心去看就会看到,即里基所说的“停下来,靠近点,看清楚”(Stay,look closer)。
