回复 :法国生态电影大导演克劳德·努利德山与玛丽亚·贝兰奴,继《小宇宙》之后,历经6年的酝酿,于 2004年推出又一力作:《小宇宙 2 基因狂想曲》。影片重现亿万年前混沌乍开、熔浆奔流的壮美气魄。大地冷却、落雨成海,终于在水中孕育出地球最初的生命……昆虫是无语的主角,没有旁白注脚,观众全然用自己的心思与眼耳来解读昆虫的一天。《小宇宙 2 基因狂想曲》的主题是宏观的,它讲的是自然界本身与存在于自然界中的万物,因此,人的元素被置入了——选择非洲老祖父代言,因为非洲是人类发源的摇篮,说的故事也有以口述语言传承文化的意味。《小宇宙2:基因狂想曲》不仅仅是一部纪录片,它还是一部喜剧音乐电影,有刻意安排的情节、演员、也有布景与聚光灯;它希望帮助人们发掘宇宙之美、发掘动物与人类、无生物与生物之间的联贯性。当一切都能被拆解成原子,死亡不过是生命现象的转换:水母优雅地漂至岸边、静静等待生命乾涸;落叶腐果,也都有着孕育新生的使命。而人呢,如同智者所说,“某日,我将回到那个当初生我、造我的世界"。
回复 :Wealthy Rollo Treadway (Buster Keaton) suddenly decides to propose to his neighbor across the street, Betsy O'Brien (Kathryn McGuire), and sends his servant to book passage for a honeymoon sea cruise to Honolulu. When Betsy rejects his sudden offer however, he decides to go on the trip anyway, boarding without delay that night. Because the pier number is partially covered, he ends up on the wrong ship, the Navigator, which Betsy's rich father (Frederick Vroom) has just sold to a small country at war.Agents for the other small nation in the conflict decide to set the ship adrift that same night. When Betsy's father checks up on the ship, he is captured and tied up by the saboteurs. Betsy hears his cry for help and boards the ship to look for him, just before it is cut loose.The Navigator drifts out into the Pacific Ocean. The two unwitting passengers eventually find each other. At first, they have great difficulty looking after themselves, but adapt after a few weeks. At one point, they sight a navy ship and hoist a brightly-colored flag, not realizing it signals that the ship is under quarantine. As a result, the other vessel turns away.Finally, the ship grounds itself near an inhabited tropical island and springs a leak. While Rollo dons a deep sea diving suit and submerges to patch the hole, the black natives canoe out and take Betsy captive. When Rollo emerges from the ocean, the natives are scared off, enabling him to rescue Betsy and take her back to the ship. The natives return and try to board the ship. After a fierce struggle, Rollo and Betsy try to escape in a small dinghy. It starts to sink, and the natives swiftly overtake them in their canoes. Just when all seems lost, a navy submarine surfaces right underneath them and they are saved.
回复 :SummaryBullied by his matriarchal mother, abused by his siblings, ignored by his father, Poil de Carotte's childhood is as miserable as it could be. An illegitimate child, he is the main reason for the enmity which exists between his parents, who continue to live together just to keep up appearances. In the end, Poil de Carotte's suffering becomes more than he can bear...ReviewDrawing heavily on the poignant novel by Jules Renard on which it is based, Poil de carotte is a modest yet appealing film which has stood the test of time mainly because of the quality of its acting performances and its inherent humanity. It is more memorable than Julien Duvivier's earlier silent version of 1925, also named Poil de Carotte.The part of Poil de Carotte was played by 11 year old Robert Lynen, who was alleged to have been discovered whilst walking down the Champs-Elysées in Paris. Lynen is totally captivating and the film made him an instant star, launching what looked like becoming a very promising film career – until he was shot dead whilst fighting against the Germans in 1944. Harry Baur, a legendary stage and film actor (who also died during World War II, allegedly at the hands of the Gestapo), also turns in a typically fine performance. The reconciliation between father and son at the end of the film provides its most enduring image, enough to melt the heart of all but the most stoical of spectators.
