《珍爱》这电影给人深刻印象
2010-07-12来源:和谐英语
Watching Precious, I was reminded of another film about the depressive ordeals of women in distress, Dancer in the Dark. Both films are made with care. Both films contain strong performances. Both films contain a story that is increasingly cruel to its central character. I can understand the admiration for either film and I can understand the bile spewed toward either film. On an objective level, I get it. But movies become personal experiences and where I hate Dancer in the Dark and will not defend it, I will surely defend Precious. I walked out of Lars von Trier’s movie in a state of despair. I left Precious encouraged. There are two worlds here: one hopeless, one hopeful. I choose to live in the latter.
看《珍爱》这部电影的时候,我想起了另一部影片,同样是有关不幸的女性遭受令人沮丧的苦难,那部片子叫《黑暗中的舞者》。两部影片都是用心之作,演员的表演也都功力可嘉,同时两个片子的主人公同样都面临越来越残酷的现实环境。我能理解人们对于其中任何一部片子的赞赏,也能理解对其中任何一部片子的指责,客观地说,我完全能理解。但电影故事会让观众感同身受,在这一点上我不喜欢《黑暗中的舞者》,不想为它说话,而一定要为《珍爱》说话;因为我看完拉斯·冯·提尔斯的《黑暗中的舞者》时,是带着一种绝望的心情走出影院的;而当我看完《珍爱》之后,我却非常地振奋。两部影片展示的完全是两个世界:一个是无望,一个是希望。我选择生存在后一个世界之中。
