影畫絮語 - 密陽 + 珍奧斯汀少女日記 + HERO

影畫絮語 (www.mov-reviews.com) 是一個網上播放的電影評論節目,歡迎收聽!!!

影畫專題 - 韓國導演李滄東繼《薄荷糖》及《愛的綠洲》後,再度刻劃在無情社會邊沿上游走的小人物的無助和哀傷。上回《愛的綠洲》捧紅女主角文素利,今回飾演寡婦的全度妍聲威更盛,憑《密陽》成為韓國史上首位康城影后。

Jane Austin嚴肅的外表下藏着一顆熾熱的心,一場具啟發性的邂逅,使她變成史上其中一位最能觸動人心的女作家。《珍奧斯汀少女日記》表現的是愛情的美好和遺憾,演員表現出色。經典日劇《HERO》終於搬上大銀幕,劇情和木村拓哉的演技又能否滿足嘉嘉?






珍奧斯汀少女日記故事簡介: 愛情和麵包,似乎永不相容。20歲的天才女作家珍奧斯汀(Jane Austen)(安夏黛維飾)相信愛情,但父母(茱莉華達絲及占士康維飾)卻期望女兒嫁個有錢人,攀上名流社會的階梯。當珍奧斯汀遇上了同樣不隨俗套的愛爾蘭男孩湯馬士勒福(Tom Lefroy)(占士麥加維飾),他的機智和傲慢令她的世界翻天覆地。她是否能抗衡世俗眼光,背棄父母的期望,拒絕獨裁地主的侄兒的追求?這一段不為世人所接納的愛情,改變了英國最受推崇女小說家的一生。




珍奧斯汀小傳:

1775年12月16日,珍奧斯汀(Jane Austen)於英國漢普郡(Hampshire)的史蒂文頓(Steventon)出生,是牧師佐治奧斯汀(George Austen)和妻子卡珊黛的第七名孩子,並一直居住於當地至到25歲。珍奧斯汀接受了一年半的正規教育後,便於十歲那年輟學,並開始創造一些她父親形容為「風格截然不同」的文章。她於十八、九歲時完成了首部小說作品<Elinor and Marianne>(後改名為<理智與感情>(Sense and Sensibility))。不久,她便戀愛了。

珍奧斯汀於1795年的聖誕節假期遇上湯勒福(Tom Lefroy)。到了一月中,湯負笈倫敦攻讀法律。二人於八月在倫敦再次遇上,但他們一直將這段關係保持秘密,直至1798年秋天才有著一些二人分手的痕跡。(珍奧斯汀唯一的姊姊曾燒掉大量珍的信件,其中由1796年12月18日至1798年10月的信件全數被焚毀。)那是珍奧斯汀產量最豐沃的兩年,由倫敦返回漢普郡的她寫成了鉅著<傲慢與偏見>(Pride and Prejudice),並重寫<Elinor and Marianne>並改名為<理智與感情>(Sense and Sensibility),最後於1799年寫成<Northanger Abbey>。在此之後她逾十年都沒有再創作小說。

失戀是珍奧斯汀停產的一個大因素,但令她受更大打擊的,是她父親於1801年退休後決定舉家搬往一個她討厭的地方 – 巴斯(Bath)。1802年12月,一名富家子曾向珍奧斯汀求婚,她答應後卻於翌口反口。數個月後,她以10英鎊把<Northanger Abbey>售予出版商,可惜始終未能親眼看到該小說面世。

珍奧斯汀的父親於1805年離世,翌年珍奧斯汀與母親及姊姊搬往南安普敦(Southampton)居住。1809年夏季,珍奧斯汀決定定居於漢普郡近郊的喬頓鎮(Chawton),她的小說均於這裡完稿及出版:<理智與感情>(出版於1811年)、<傲慢與偏見>(1813)、<心鎖>(Mansfield Park)(1814)、<愛瑪>(Emma)(1815)。其最後一部作品<勸導>(Persuasion)寫於逝世前的一年左右。

珍奧斯汀於1817年7月18日死於慢性腎上腺皮質機能減退症(Addison’s Disease)。<勸導>及<Northanger Abbey>均於她死後出版。




密陽故事簡介: 丈夫因車禍喪生後,申愛由首爾帶着兒子南下到丈夫家鄉密陽(Miryang)居住。她努力想融入當地的社會,甚至還辦了一間鋼琴學校,但始終徒勞無功。申愛第一天來到密陽,便遇到憨厚的汽車維修店老闆金宗燦(Kim Jong-chan)。雖然申愛很討厭宗燦老是圍著她團團轉,但在他的幫助下,學校的學生數目漸多;申愛的兒子亦開始適應新學校生活。正當一切漸上軌道時,申愛的兒子卻被綁架,最後更被匪徒殺死。大受打擊的申愛歸信基督教,但信仰未能平復她的傷痛。絕望的她決定向上帝宣戰...李滄東繼《薄荷糖》及《愛的綠洲》後,再度刻劃人性中的哀傷和軟弱,溫婉中見沉重,直刺觀眾心坎。上回《愛的綠洲》捧紅女主角文素利,今回飾演內心矛盾淒創寡婦的全度妍聲威更盛,憑本片成為韓國史上首位康城影后。李滄東塑造女演員的功力,不容忽視。全度妍夥拍實力影帝宋康昊,盡現火花。

愛的綠洲故事簡介: 相逢何必曾相識。一個剛出獄的無賴,一個肌肉嚴重痙攣的女孩,同樣被家人嫌棄。出獄男還未重生已被家人再次宣判死刑,痙攣女孩還未嘗過人間真情便已被世界厭惡。一次偶然的相遇,兩個受盡歧視的天涯淪落人互相吸引,繼而展開一段被世俗定義為畸戀的另類出塵純愛。沒有山盟海誓、沒有綿綿情話,兩個社會邊緣人的戀情,卻比凡塵俗愛更加刻骨銘心。有韓國羅拔迪尼路之稱的薛景求,夥拍憑本片聲名大噪的文素利,將角色內心的痛楚盡情展現。李滄東感人力作,洋溢著濃烈的人道主義。

薄荷糖故事簡介: 人生從來是一場悲劇,至少在李滄東眼中如是。男人四十,等待他的卻是失去一切的虛空人生。被老友欺騙、與妻子離婚、生活只得莫名失落,男人萬念俱灰,打算以槍了斷殘生之際,突然有人叫他找回初戀情人。二十年前的初戀,頓時在男人的思潮中湧現。甜蜜回憶,還少不了初戀情人送的薄荷糖。李滄東與薛景求首度合作,描繪人到中年的無奈和悲哀,沉鬱得讓人不住感嘆。影片以倒敘方式重現主角 1979-1999 年的個人經歷,側寫社會變遷,被韓國影評人讚譽為一部充滿滄桑感的韓國當代社會史。

  11. 我看到你在我blog的留言了,過來逛逛。 珍奧斯汀少女日記雖然主角都很漂亮,不過內容很空洞,像在看偶像片一樣,感覺不到女主角會寫得出理智與感情。
    [版主回覆10/23/2007 12:59:00]I think that it is a feel-good romantic story. The ending also impresses me. I personally prefer this to Pride and Prejudice which has a typical happy ending. Jane, in the movie, has made a "wise" decision at the end. AND I can feel her passion for the gentleman. However, I think the director can spend more time developing their relationship. ^^
