Christian Carion執導的電影「近距交戰」(Joyeux Noel,2005),描述第一次大戰期間,有一年的聖誕夜,在法、英、德緊密交戰、已達短兵交接的法國佔領區,因一首平安夜,導致交戰雙方三國暫時弭平對立關係,共度聖誕夜、一齊禮拜的故事。
這部電影其實挺濫情,男女聲樂家在戰場上高歌聖樂,是電影的一大賣點,卻最矯揉造作,不過,處理兩方三國,從對立到友好,在彼此語言不通的情況下,卻尋找到「共通的語言」,在這部分,倒蠻有趣。
在導演刻意著重下,這共通語言,其一是國際名曲「平安夜」。
最先是蘇格蘭人在壕溝裡過聖誕夜,他們用最擅長的風笛樂器,吹了歡慶聖誕的曲子,而後德國兵營裡恰好有一個戰前是聲樂家的士兵,聽了蘇格蘭士兵的音樂,便跟自己國人唱起平安夜,沒想到他唱了幾句,聽見蘇格蘭風笛也吹著平安夜這首曲子,來為他伴奏,還發現慢慢的,不管是英國法國或德國士兵,都開始合唱.... |

【經典回顧
】海洋和島嶼之間,漂離和佇留之際─萬仁的《惜別海岸》 |
觀眾也許還記得《超級大國民》在金馬影展上獲最佳男主角獎的次年,導演萬仁推著輪椅上林揚老先生上台接受致敬的動人一幕。這彷彿一個隱喻,國民黨獨裁統治下的白色恐怖受難者,經由劇中這一位深沉反思者的受苦清滌,得到了些許肯定和慰藉。然而,時至今日,這些歷史的創口並未癒合消失,反而更加疤落血流。 |

【電影•音樂】觀看顧爾德1/25317209的人生——顧爾德的時光之旅 |
最早觀看有關顧爾德影片,是在我32歲生日時,朋友送了我一支《32個關於顧爾德的極短篇》的錄影帶,由導演吉哈(Francis Girard)導演。電影由32個不相關的片段組成,為什麼會是32呢?因為顧爾德對數字有著奇妙的偏執與迷戀,貫穿全片的是巴哈的郭德堡變奏曲,以詠嘆調開始,接著每段搭配一段變奏,最後再以詠嘆調結束,正好是32。 |

Mrs Henderson Presents 裸體舞台 |
Laura Henderson: [at her husband's funeral] I'm bored with widowhood.
Lady Conway: My dear, you've just scratched the surface.
Laura Henderson: I have to smile at everybody. I've never had to smile at everybody. In India, there were always people to look down on.
Lady Conway: People are merely being sympathetic. After all, you have lost your husband.
Laura Henderson: Well I didn't mislay him! It was most inconsiderate of Robert to die. What on earth am I supposed to do now?
Lady Conway: It's really not so bad. Widows are allowed hobbies.
Laura Henderson: Hobbies?
Lady Conway: Yes. Embroidery, things like that.
Laura Henderson: Are you mad?
Lady Conway: I've graduated to weaving. Would you care to see my tapestries?
Laura Henderson: I'd rather drink ink.
Lady Conway: Committees are good of course. I serve on quite a few charities. Once your husband dies, it's quite permissible to help the poor. And now, there's no one to stop you buying things. Also, of course, there's a great deal of time for lovers.
Laura Henderson: Margot, I'm nearly 70!
Lady Conway: That's true, but you're also very rich. The one cancels out the other. |
