回复 :本片以美国50年代美苏冷战时期为背景,围绕女主人公凯蒂·莫若斯凯(芭芭拉·史翠珊 Barbra Streisand饰)与男主人公哈贝尔·加德纳(罗伯特·雷德福 Robert Redford饰)讲述了一段由相识到相知相恋,却因彼此间个性和政治立场的差异而分手的爱情故事。凯蒂,性格倔强浓烈的左翼女生,在校担任青年政党联盟主席;而主张明哲保身的哈贝尔则是学校有名的运动和写作才子。两人顺理成章地走到一起,也不可避免地分道扬镳。许多年以后,哈贝尔在街头与凯蒂重逢,往日情怀,不禁涌上心头。由著名导演西德尼·波拉克执导的影片《往日情怀》,根据阿琴·劳伦茨的小说改编而成。导演波拉克十分擅长反映当今社会的政治问题和揭露一些社会现实,而这部具有浓厚政治意味的好莱坞爱情片,更成为当时具有知识分子味道的代表作。波拉克一生导演了19部影片,共获得46项奥斯卡提名。本片则荣获1974年第46届奥斯卡金像奖最佳原创歌曲、剧情类最佳配乐及最佳女主角提名等多项大奖与提名。
回复 :本片无疑是专属于这个时代的纪录片。在这个各种新媒体不断涌现的时代,人们接触讯息的管道前所未有的纷杂,各种「假新闻」或「另类事实」(alternative fact)的星火满天飞,引发话题在全球延烧。随著媒体日益分化,以及社群媒体掌握讯息散布管道,政治宣传在其中扮演了什麽样的角色?它如何默默影响世界秩序的转变?这部纪录片将揭发那些寻求权力的人,如何透过政治宣传手段达到其目的。导演除了分析当前的政治社会情境,同时也爬梳了政治宣传的历史,回顾过往历史上几个关键时刻,揭露当时政治宣传如何被当成巩固国族及控制人群的工具。就当今的情势而言,本片绝对是一则必要且警世的寓言。政治宣传的发展历史源远流长,并且经常与时俱进。从远古时期的洞穴岩画,到西斯汀教堂的壁画,再到推特上的针锋相对,政治宣传运用各种形式的媒体,来动摇、威逼、恐吓人民。人们被谎言或半真半假的消息喂养著,然而他们往往对此类讯息飢不择食。险恶的威胁和不切实际的诺言,这些不断高升的情绪诉求,完全压制了理性思考的声音。当谎言推翻了真相,便成为了新的现实,半真半假的讯息在狂言妄语中不断被散布,真实就再没有被讨论的空间。政治宣传本身是无害的,但这项工具一旦落入最恶名昭彰的煽动者手中,后果将是致命的。
回复 :In Skazka, Alexander Sokurov weaves digital magic to create a phantasmagorical vision of the Afterlife, worthy of Dante. But wait: are we in the limbo of Purgatory, or a paradoxical Paradise reserved for notorious men of world history? Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, Churchill and more: all are present and accounted for. Since they exist only as archival media images, each figure comes in a serial set.In the blackest of political comedies, these fallen men beg, in turn, to be let through Heaven’s Gate – but the angels who peek through never open wide. Little wonder, as the former leaders wander listlessly, bitching (in a Babel of multiple languages) about each other’s clothes, hair and hygiene.In what is effectively a work of animation, Sokurov has pulled together many talents into an extraordinary technological feat. It blends pictorial elements from art history to form an endlessly unfolding landscape, replete with fog and ghostly armies of the sacrificed victims of history. Announced as Sokurov’s last film, Skazka is an inspired riff on the high culture of Peter Greenaway mixed with the low culture of mash-up artists Soda_Jerk. Can we now expect some entrepreneur to bring us the interactive Skazka video game?
