此去经年,爱恋无声

爱的相遇、爱的失意、爱的快乐和挣扎,

年复一年都在咱们身边发生。

该发生的总会发生,

就像芳华的盛开、夏天的热烈、秋日的训练、时光的沉淀

……

500 Days of Summer恋夏500日:夏天来了,秋天还远吗?

◎ 文 / 张曦

许多时候,爱情的走动就像四季的流转,该去的留不住,要来的总会来。永远不要休想对荏苒的爱情进行理性的分析,不然只会徒增困惑与愁然。是以,最佳一切顺从其好意思。要是夏天的离开曾让你伤感,那么请服气,秋日的到来不会太远……

《恋夏500日》(500 Days of Summer)是导演Marc Webb的电影处女作。这部电影冲破了多情东说念主终授室眷的落拓笑剧旧例,通过诸多细节说念出了男女之间真实而神秘的关系。在影片中,男主角Tom回忆了他与一个温柔女孩Summer从相遇、相识、相知到相离的500天旧事。咱们随从着Tom的记忆,和他总共阅历了从爱的萌生到爱的失去的历程,见证了他从雀跃到烦扰、从低落到温存、从念念考爱的意旨到体会爱的真理的心灵旅程。值得一提的是,影片领受了非常而新颖的拍摄手法,Summer与Tom相遇的500天既不是通过完全的倒叙,也不是通过完全的王法手法来张开,而是把500天分红不同的阶段,交叉叙事,清亮地描摹了Tom在不同阶段的内心世界。

射中注定我爱你

不经意的爱情老是在某一刻不期而至。也许在路径中,也许在东说念主海里,某一个视力,拨动了你的心弦,爱情就来终末。对于Tom来说,在他看到Summer的第一眼时,他就知说念,他也曾渴望过的爱情来终末。然而娓娓说念来的旁白,却冲破了咱们事先的生机:“This is a story of boy meets girl. The boy, Tom, grew up believing that he'd never truly be happy until the day he met the one. This belief stemmed from early exposure to sad British pop music and a total misreading of the movie The Graduate. The girl, Summer, Michigan, did not share this belief. Since the disintegration of her parents' marriage she'd only love two things. The first was her long dark hair. The second was how easily she could cut it off and not feel a thing. Tom meets Summer on January 8th. He knows almost immediately she is who he has been searching for. This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know upfront: this is not a love story.”

这是一个男孩女孩相遇的故事,却不是一个传统意旨上的爱情故事。来改过泽西的Tom是个腐朽于英伦情歌与《毕业生》情境的年青东说念主。Summer是一个来自密歇根的温柔女孩。汤姆从小服气射中注定的爱情,Summer却在父母解体的婚配中对此充满了疑虑。影片以倒叙运行,最先映入眼帘的是Tom与Summer相遇第290天的情形。镜头中的Tom面容憔悴,神采颓落,摔着盘子,喝着伏特加,因为Summer决绝地跟他提倡了分手。

Summer: I think we should stop seeing each other. I mean this thing … What are we doing? I mean, is this normal?

Tom: Norm … I don't know. I don't care. I'm happy. Aren't you happy?

Summer: All we do is argue.

Tom: That is bullshit.

Summer: This can't come as a total surprise to you. We've been like Sid and Nancy

Tom: Summer, Sid stabbed Nancy … seven times with a kitchen knife. I mean we have some disagreements, but I hardly think I'm Sid Vicious.

Summer: No, I'm Sid.

Tom: Oh, so I'm Nancy ...

莫得任何原理,Summer就这样离开了Tom,并辞去了责任。Tom难以收受他所信奉的爱情会是这样的结局。他仍然难忘与Summer第一天相遇的现象。当一心想当征战师却成为贺卡祝词写手的Tom,碰到雇主爽朗温柔、逸群绝伦的新助理Summer时,心中顿时闪出火花。

对于Tom来说,在茫茫东说念主海中,这样的相遇只可用一个词来形容:射中注定。Tom很快发现我方与Summer有许多共同点:他们都喜欢The Smiths乐队,都抚玩超现实主义艺术家Rene Magritte的作品……当东说念主生中出现这样多适值,是不是就意味着碰到了渴望中的真爱?正派Tom对好意思好爱情充满憧憬之时,在他们相遇的第八天,在公司的一次荟萃中,咱们却从他们的对话中看到了两种天差地远的爱情不雅。

Summer: I don't feel comfortable being anyone's girlfriend. I like being on my own. Relationships are messy, and people's feelings get hurt. Who needs it? We are young. We live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Might as well have fun while we can and … save the serious stuff for later.

Tom: Ok. But wait, wait, what happens if you fall in love?

Summer: Well, you don't believe that, do you?

Tom: It's love. It's not Santa Claus.

Summer: What does that word even mean? I've been in relationships and I don't think I've ever seen it and most marriages end in divorces these days like my parents. There is no such thing as love. It's a fantasy.

Tom: Well, I think you are wrong.

Summer: Ok, well, what is it that I'm missing then?

Tom: I think you know it when you feel it.

Summer: I guess we can just agree to disagree.

虽然Summer言语中透出了对爱情的“不屑”,但Tom照旧自然而然地被Summer招引。经过不竭地试探和不懈地追求,第31天,从Summer的一个吻运行,Tom坠入爱河,步入了我方笃信的爱情寰宇,瞻望着真爱相守的竣工结局。然而Summer永远心存疑虑。在相遇的第34天,当两东说念主快乐地逛宜家家居时,Summer有些害怕地向Tom说念出了她的忠诚话。

Summer: I just want to tell you that, um, I'm not really looking for anything … serious. Is that OK?

Tom: Yeah.

Summer: Because some people kind of freak out when they hear that.

Tom: No, not me.

Summer: You sure?

Tom: Yeah, like … casual, right? Take it slow.

Summer: Right, no pressure.

Tom虽然心里很失意,口头上还故作裁减。他永远幻想着Summer有一天会打开心扉。

第95天,Tom带Summer去他最爱的广场,和她总共分享他想作念征战设计师的渴望。他们坐在草坪边的长椅上,凝望着辽远兀立的几幢迂腐的大楼,Tom在Summer的手臂上画下了他钟爱的大楼的平面图。这是爱情的好意思妙时期,灵魂的共通,Tom想。第109天,当Summer邀请Tom去她家时,Tom以为这是步地的升华。他运行认为,也曾隔在他和Summer之间的那堵墙正在渐渐消散。Summer跟Tom娓娓论述着她不曾与别东说念主说过的虚幻,Tom嗅觉我方走入了她禁闭的内心世界。咱们即是相互共同寻求的灵魂伴侣,Tom想。然而,爱情最终曲终东说念主散。Tom不解白,这一切是虚幻照旧现实?Summer决绝的背影死后,留住的是Tom的苦难落寞和百念念不得其解。让咱们通过许多恋爱和失恋的镜头交错,和Tom总共去寻找谜底。

爱恨错杂,时空交错

在Tom的回忆中,爱与不爱的镜头轮流出现,相互对照,造成了强烈的视觉抑制。在相遇的第282天,爱情堕入低谷的Summer和Tom出当今宜家市集里,能够的一句“All the sinks are broken”后,两东说念主默然尴尬,悻然离去。镜头切换到第34天,相通的宜家市集,亮堂的颜色里,堕入爱情中的Tom和Summer欢雀跃喜地闲荡着,从沙发到厨房再到卧房,这对恋东说念主一齐奔走追赶,直得手挽入辖下手走出宜家,目下是一派翠绿,辽远是无尽好意思好的出息。

与Summer第一次亲密战争后,Tom走在路上,以为似乎东说念主东说念主脸上都浮现出笑颜,喷泉如同烟花般盛开。他和途经他身边的每一个东说念主合手手、拥抱,分享心中的好意思妙。踏入公司的电梯,他脸上的笑颜甜蜜灿烂得可将冰霜溶化。忽然,镜头切换至第303天,合并个电梯打开后,展走漏的是Tom低落的眼睑,沉重的步地,那是失去Summer的Tom。

在恋爱中的东说念主眼里,恋东说念主的一切都是好意思妙的。第154天,堕入情网中的Tom说出了总共恋东说念主心中的好意思。

Tom: I'm in love with Summer. I love her smile, her hair, her knees. I love how she licks her lips before she talks. I love her heart-shaped birthmark on her neck. I like it when she is sleeping. I love the way she makes me feel, like everything is possible, and life is worth it.

而在失恋的东说念主眼里,也曾的恋东说念主的一切都让东说念主伤感和敌对。相遇的第322天,失去Summer的Tom心中充满了恨。

Tom: I hate Summer. I hate her crooked teeth. I hate the way she smacks her lips. I hate her knooby knees. I hate that cockroach-shaped splotch on her neck. I hate the way she smacks her teeth before she talks. I hate what she sounds when she laughs.

Tom心中的爱情,是电光火石的碰撞,是相守一世的好意思好,是以Summer的离去让他永远无法宽心。当他的一又友劝他“海角何处无芳草”时,Tom却说:“This is different. This is Summer. I don't want to get over her. I want to get her back.”

爱情,如四季般流转

第402天, Tom在火车上碰见了同去参加共事婚典的Summer。两个东说念主在火车上喝咖啡话旧,快乐的笑颜,悠扬的歌声,夕阳的余光……一切似乎又回到从前,这又焚烧了Tom心中微弱的但愿火光。Summer邀请Tom参加我方的派对。在归程的列车上,Summer斜靠在Tom肩上睡去,Tom的脸上隐隐有了久违的笑颜。第405天,Tom兴冲冲地去参加派对,心中充满着与Summer重回旧日的好意思好生机。此时,大屏幕中以分镜头体式呈现了一段渴望与现实的“二重唱”——Tom的预期和荟萃的现实并现,杰出了生机与现实间的浩大落差。在Tom的预期里,他和Summer重温旧日情感,Summer永远守在身边,深情款款;而现实中,Tom茕茕而立,斜靠阳台,Summer只把他视作参加派对的普通一员,只顾和别的一又友欢笑辞吐,手指上一枚婚戒在夕阳中闪闪发光。

对于Tom来说,接下来的日子是难挨的时光,是信念的崩溃,是对于所笃信的一切的透顶怀疑。每天傍晚,他借酒消愁;每天早晨,他在闹铃声中迷茫醒来。在责任追忆会上,Tom借着抨击贺卡的甜蜜祝词说出了内心信仰的坍塌和对爱情的透顶绝望。

Tom: Think about it. Why do people buy cards? It's not because they want to say how they feel. People buy cards because they can't say how they feel or they're afraid to. We provide these service that let them off the hook

此时在Tom的眼里,爱情这个字眼不再具有任何意旨。音乐里、电影里、爱情故事里的那些爱情都是流言。也许,Summer是对的,莫得原理去服气爱情。然而,戏剧化的是,在第488天,Tom又去了他最喜欢的广场,在哪里他不测地碰到了Summer。从他们的对话中,咱们看到了Tom和Summer的爱情不雅戏剧性的变化:Tom从笃信爱情转为小瞧爱情,Summer从怀疑爱情转为服气射中注定。Tom无法宽心的许多问题终于有了谜底。

Tom: You, um, you're married.

Summer: Yeah, it's crazy, huh?

Tom: You've never wanted to be anybody's girlfriend and now you are somebody's wife.

Summer: It surprised me too.

Tom: I don't think I'll ever understand that. I mean, it doesn't make sense.

Summer: It just happened.

Tom: Right, but that's what I don't understand. What just happened?

Summer: I just woke up one day and I knew.

Tom: Knew what?

Summer: What I was never sure with you.

Tom: You know what sucks? Realizing everything you believe in is complete bullshit. It sucks.

Summer: What do you mean?

Tom: Uh, you know, destiny, and soul mates, and true love, and all that childhood fairy tale nonsense. You were right. I should have listened to you.

Summer: No, Tom. Well, you know, I guess it's because I was sitting in a deli and reading Dorian Gray

Tom: Yeah, and … so?

Summer: So, what if I've gone to the movies? What if I had gone somewhere else for lunch? What if I had got there ten minutes later? It was … it was meant to be. And I just kept thinking: Tom was right. It just wasn't me you were right about.

在Summer看来,这一切就在那刹那间发生了,笃定了,明晰了。Summer当初只是不笃定Tom是她心中的“the one”。Tom信奉的爱情是对的,他只是选错了爱的对象。

这是一个对于爱情的好意思好论断,亦然影片自身想传达给咱们的信息。Tom不该怀疑爱情,只是在对的时间碰见了错的东说念主。在真诚地祝贺Summer幸福后,Tom最终宽心了,不是射中注定的爱情不存在,只是射中注定的东说念主不是Summer。

在第500天,Tom去一家公司收受征战师职位的口试,遇上相通来参加应聘的一个温柔女孩。当她答理Tom的邀请,说出她的名字是Autumn时,总共世界都亮堂了。

影片对两位女孩名字的遴荐别具匠心,“Summer”过后是“Autumn”,正如夏季的雷雨过后有温柔的秋日。Tom的爱情就该像四季般天然流转,毋庸刻意寻求。Tom最终相识到,东说念主生不是一定要射中注定,离开和伤害都不错逐步平复,最终变成成长的记忆。正如旁白所说:“Most days of the year are unremarkable. They begin and they end … with no lasting memories made in between. Most days have no impact … on the course of a life. Tom had finally learned there are no miracles. There're no such things as fate. Nothing is meant to be. He knew, he was sure of it now.”

爱的相遇、爱的失意、爱的快乐和挣扎,年复一年都在咱们身边发生。走的天然走了,来的天然会来,该发生的总会发生,就像芳华的盛开、夏天的热烈、秋日的训练、时光的沉淀……影片《恋夏500日》就像一首烙迹着芳华的清新小诗,赐与咱们许多感动。

One Day一天:此去经年,爱恋无声

◎ 文 / 陈文宇

他是吊儿郎当的令嫒之子;她是性格保守的平庸女孩。她在心里默默地爱了他20年,从未改造;而他只是把她当成倾吐的对象,一个情感备胎。当有一天他爱护的一切都离他而去,只剩下她时,他才惊觉,她才是他的此生挚爱。

由好意思国甜心Anne Hathaway和英国男星Jim Sturgess携手主演的电影《一天》(One Day)改编自英国作者David Nicholls的同名畅销演义。故事聚焦于一双在行将毕业时相识的男女——Dexter和Emma。他们被相互的特质所招引,商定每年在相遇这天见面,分享相互的东说念主生阅历和感悟。影片呈现了随后20年两东说念主商定见面的那一天所发生的事,为不雅众论述了一个平庸而温柔的爱情故事,让东说念主在引入歧途之余回味良久。

不同于繁密爱情轻笑剧的小打小闹,本片不仅论述了男女主东说念主公如诗般有味的爱情历程,更是通过两东说念主的生命旅程展现了友情、家庭和渴望的寥落。整部影片甜蜜中带着酸楚,赋闲出浓浓的怀旧气味。

盛夏雨夜,许下商定

1988年7月15日,爱丁堡大学为毕业生的狂热所充盈。大学毕业仪式后,学生们喝酒、欢唱,在街头解放奔走,豪侈品着芳华最后的堂堂皇皇。Dexter是吊儿郎当、家景殷实的令嫒之子;Emma则是来自普通家庭的平庸女孩,性格保守,书动怒的她在一群前锋爽朗的女学生中显得格不相入。安静的Emma只是远远地关注着超逸的Dexter,而Dexter用他特有的令嫒之子的方式把她揽入怀中,打算与之共度这最后的狂欢与落拓之夜。和那时总共毕业在即的年青东说念主一样,他们企图用年青的肉体来发泄心中的缺乏,以此笼罩对将来的阴暗。但Emma在男女激东说念主情前的弥留和低能,让Dexter的落拓之夜最终烟消火灭。Dexter虽内心有小小的失望,但从Emma身上,他体会到从其他女孩身上莫得体会过的嗅觉。他依旧很闻东说念主地留住来陪她,他们说好只作念一又友。那天,恰好是圣斯威逊节(Saint Swithin's Day),诗中说只消这寰宇雨,某些物、某些情就会得以长存。他与她就这样相识了,也许是冥冥中早已注定,这场雨将他们的步地永远定格在了1988年7月15日,是运行亦然最终的记挂日。

Dexter: Look, that's fine. That's fine. Maybe we could just be friends.

Emma: Okay. Friends.

Dexter: Of course, you know it's Saint Swithin's Day today, don't you?

Emma: What is it?

Dexter: Well, today, Saint Swithin's Day, the 15th of July.

Emma: How do you know that?

Dexter: Well, he was buried in Winchester Cathedral, which is where I went to school … You know, there's a poem. “If on Saint Swithin's Day, it doth rain, something, something, something remain.”

毕业后,他们一直与对方保持着臆测,相互倾吐烦恼,坦诚相告私东说念主巧妙,激勉对方追求渴望。每年的7月15日,他们会相约见面,聊聊现状,叙话旧情。转倏得两年已过,Emma在伦敦,Dexter在巴黎,在大部分时间里,他们的生命旅程都少有交集。Emma靠在餐厅打工营生,在追求渴望的说念路上阴暗犹豫,虽有热烈的追求者,内心却难有波浪,因为她心里一直暗暗爱着Dexter。Dexter依旧是阿谁令嫒之子,在巴黎以教书的口头不绝寻花觅柳。Emma本以为像Dexter这样的令嫒之子,不外是把她作为念缺乏无聊时的游伴费力。可她渐渐发现,在吊儿郎当的伪装下,Dexter有一颗善良质朴的心。她喜欢他的慵懒、风趣良善解东说念主意。而Dexter也发现,在Emma不自信的拘束外在下,却有着别的同龄女生所莫得的智力和幽默。他说不上她有什么致命的招引力,但是他总能从她身上感受到暖热,他喜欢和她在总共的嗅觉。

友东说念主之上,恋东说念主未满

1992年7月15日,他们相识后的第四年,两东说念主第一次结伙旅行。Emma对这次旅行充满期待,况且为这次旅行定下了许多王法,以期不要冲破他们的一又友关系。本质上是她内心恐慌,或许一朝两东说念主关系再进一步,Dexter会像离开其他女东说念主那样离开她。

盛夏夜晚,巴黎旷野的沙滩边,Emma酒醉微醺时向Dexter表白我方也曾暗恋他。但面对Dexter得意而不以为然的簸弄,Emma自欺欺东说念主地清晰这种喜欢只是学生时间的青涩情感,当今我方对他早已莫得了嗅觉。

Emma: I can't believe I'm actually here with you.

Dexter: Why?

Emma: When we were at university, before we spoke even, I had a crush on you. Ridiculous, I know. But when we almost did it that night, I couldn't believe it. I wrote poems and everything. What have you got to say to that?

Dexter: Well, I already knew.

Emma: What do you mean, you knew?

Dexter: Well, I sort of guessed. All those epic letters and compilation tapes. So, go on then. What happened?

Emma: Mmm. I got to know you. You cured me of you.

巴黎的夏夜,空气中充满下降拓的气味。他们看似情东说念主,却永远保持着一定的距离。当微醺的两个东说念主在泳池打闹嬉戏时,Dexter陡然停了下来,恻隐地看着Emma。他第一次发现,蟾光下的Emma是如斯柔媚动东说念主。Emma以为Dexter对她动了真情,她贯串他恻隐的视力,听着他温柔的广告……直到他向她精炼,他对她的想念和留恋与对其他女东说念主一样。Emma失望绝顶,她以为Dexter和我方的往来方式不同于其他女东说念主,她以为她会使Dexter改造。但她错了,他照旧他,阿谁放肆身段的令嫒之子。他根蒂不懂得真爱,更不会去爱护,她在他心中只是一个一又友费力。

游戏东说念主生,故东说念主离去

时光荏苒,又是几年时间急遽而过。Emma找到了一份我方喜欢的责任,在一所中学当教师。Dexter则凭借俊朗的外在和风趣的语言成为红极一时的文娱节目主办东说念主。

Dexter就像一个长不大的孩子,在现实世界里放肆地豪侈品着时间、肉体和步地,在被名气环绕的日子里,他在充斥着乙醇、毒品和女东说念主的声色场中透顶迷失了我方。他渐忘了Emma和我方的父母。Emma只是他在累了的时候才会想起的倾吐对象。母亲的死一火也未能让他真实清醒过来,他依旧游戏东说念主生。

而Emma决定透顶健忘Dexter。她运行收受其他男生的追求,并与男友Ian生活在了总共。一切看上去幸福竣工,她告诉我方,这即是生活本来的形状。芳华少小时的爱情也许就和那时丧胆的渴望一样,根蒂敌不外时间和现实的历练。她知说念Dexter的绝望和堕落,但是她也通晓我方无力改造和接济他。她对他的爱那么深,可得回的只是是他无助时的步地索要。他不可能爱上她,她要透顶破除他了。

1996年7月15日,在两东说念主商定见面的日子,果断决定要破除Dexter的Emma照旧忍不住去见了他,因为她想念着他。目下的Dexter看上去光鲜亮丽,可总共东说念主意志无聊,那张也曾老练的脸庞此刻却让Emma感到前所未有的生分。他们谈着相互近来的生活,谈到Emma作念教师时,Dexter不但莫得守旧她,反而还嘲讽地说莫得才略的东说念主才去教书。他这句打妙语激愤了她,两东说念主之间爆发了相识以来第一次严重的争吵。

Dexter: Still, you know what they say?

Emma: No, what do they say?

Dexter: You know, “Those who can ...”

Emma: No, I'm sorry. I'm not familiar ... Finish the sentence.

Dexter: All right. Well, “Those who can, do, and those who can't, teach.”

Emma: And those who can teach say, “Go fuck yourself!”

Dexter: Emma! Emma, come on. Look, whatever I've done, I'm sorry. You've obviously had a bit too much to drink.

Emma: No, you're drunk! You're drunk! Do you realize that I have literally not seen you sober for three years? Nipping off

Dexter沉浸在名气中忘乎是以,涓滴莫得在乎过Emma的感受,以致都莫得听她倾吐烦恼。她透顶心碎了,提倡了断交。

Dexter: Look, I am having fun.that's all. I've been through a lot recently. I might get a bit carried away, but if you wouldn't stop getting at

Emma: Am I? I don't mean to, and I ... I know that you've been through a lot with your mum and all, I know. But there are things that I needed to talk to you about, about how I am stuck in this flat with a man that I am not in love with. And if I can't talk to you, then what is the point of you? Of us?

Dexter: What do you mean, “What's the point?”

Emma: I think we've outgrown each other. No, you have outgrown me. You think I'm uncool and dreary.

Dexter: I don't think you're dreary.

Emma: I think if it's over, then we should just face facts. Say goodbye.

Dexter: It sounds like you're dumping me.

Emma: Yeah, maybe I am. You're not who you used to be.

Dexter: Come on, Emma. Look, I apologize! Please.

他祈求她包涵,但她回身离开。她逐步走远的身影陡然停了下来,又回身向他跑来。她什么也莫得说,只是使劲地抱着他,泪如雨下。他本以为,她依然什么都能包涵他,但是这一次他错了,她照旧遴荐破除他。

Emma: I love you, Dexter. So much. I just don't like you anymore. I'm sorry.

那么多年昔时了,Emma终于向Dexter说出了“我爱你”。这三个字压在她心头太真切,是那么重,可当她终于对他说出来时,却对他透顶绝望了。这三个字此刻是何等无力。他看着目下的她,就像受到猛击一样,忽然清醒了过来。他此刻才瓦解,她之是以一直和他保持臆测,一直作念他的情感备胎,是因为她可爱着他,哪怕他说了伤害她的话,她也依然爱着他。

弃恶从善,水流花落

时光急遽而过,东说念主到中年的Dexter不再适应主办爽朗的年青东说念主节目,电视台不得不革职他,也曾陪他总共豪侈品芳华的东说念主们也早已东奔西向。他运行内省,发誓要改造。他决定与正在往来的女友结婚,作念一个及格的丈夫,告别昔时的瑕玷与无知。Emma逐步消散在他的性射中。

他们争吵后的又一次见面,是在共同参加大学同学的婚典时。Emma衣服宝蓝色的收用旗袍穿梭在东说念主群中,是如斯的不菲、典雅和脱俗,与昔时阿谁土里村炮的她判若两东说念主。而Dexter则归隐在繁密行状凯旋的同学中,低调地伴随着只身妻。当今的他果断是一个优雅的训练男东说念主,莫得了昔时的孩子气和吊儿郎当。多年前的争吵和恩仇在他们久违的相视一笑中随风飘散。他们在酒店天台再次寻到了昔时那份老练的友谊。她依然是他的老友,而他依然是她可爱过的阿谁男东说念主。他告诉她,他行将奉子授室,成为丈夫和父亲。她险些不敢服气,喜极而泣,为他的改造和当今的幸福而欢笑,却接力掩饰着心中的悲伤。他们互说念想念,许愿再不会从对方的性射中消散。也曾的那份惺惺惜惺惺再次回到了两东说念主之间……

其后,Dexter作念了爸爸,为肩负家庭包袱不得不到老同学的餐厅打工,也曾傲头傲脑的他终向现实俯首。不外,为了温柔的细君和可人的小女儿,他以为一切都是值得的。可生活总不如东说念主愿,当他以为我方终于不错放下轻浮的昔时冷静地过日子时,细君却出轨了。他们的爱情以仳离完了。

失去了责任、母亲、细君和家庭,最后Dexter似乎只剩下Emma。一切似乎又回到了原点,回到了1988年他们相识的那天。只不外,当年他是春色满园的风骚小生,如今却只是一个孤苦的失败者。

良晌的幸福,漫长的忧伤

2003年7月15日,又是一个他们见面的日子。此时Emma还是成为小驰名气的儿童演义作者,生活过得越来越好;而Dexter的生活则跌入谷底,他成了一个险峻的中年东说念主。

巴黎火车站,东说念主头攒动,Dexter终于在东说念主群中找到了Emma。她剪了俏丽的短发,全身赋闲着优雅气味,更加性感迷东说念主。当得知她已有新恋东说念主,Dexter竟相配恼怒,因为他一直认为她只是他的,就像一个私东说念主珍重品。而他却并不知,这样多年,他一次又一次地伤害了她,而她的东说念主生不成老是受他的影响。这次他来找她,本来是想告诉她,他当今除了她一无总共,他想和她在总共。但一切为时已晚,她还是有了喜欢的东说念主。

Emma带Dexter去听男友的爵士乐演奏会,让他和男友见见面。但演奏厅近在目下时,Dexter忽然以为我方是个宽裕的东说念主,最后托词更喜欢一个东说念主去看电影,拒却了Emma的邀请。看着Emma离去的俏丽身影和与新男友的甜蜜拥吻,他后悔不已。这一刻他才惊觉,她早已潜入他的灵魂。和她说念别后,他漫无主义地走在夏季的巴黎街头,心中感到前所未有的颓废。

Emma口头上在负责听演奏会,但预想Dexter萧索落寞的步地,她的内心久久无法简洁。她问我方,到底对他还有莫得少许留念。她无法自欺,她通晓任何东说念主都无法取代他,她依旧可爱着他,只消看他一眼,她就无法自拔。要是她在他最抱怨的时候放置他,那即是对他最阴毒的刑事包袱。她不成破除他。最后,她照旧追了出去,实时赶上Dexter,对他抒发了爱意。

Emma: Wait! Dexter! I thought I got rid of you. If you muck me about, Dexter ...

Dexter: Emma, I swear. I swear I won't.

Emma: Lead me on, or let me down, or go behind my back, I will murder you.

Dexter: I won't do that.

Emma: You swear?

Dexter: Yeah, I swear. I swear.

阅历了15年的漫长恭候,两东说念主的爱情终于修成正果。随后的两年,Emma不绝写稿,Dexter经营着一家小餐厅,两东说念主在巴黎的生活简单而甜蜜。他们正操办着结婚,她但愿能有一个属于他们的孩子。但是,尝试过屡次,她却一直未能怀胎。她有些小小的颓废,他温柔地安危她,说他们还有许多时间。

2006年,一个平庸的早晨,为排遣因未能遂愿怀胎带来的颓废,他们约好晚上总共去看电影。傍晚,Emma骑上自行车赶紧地穿梭在老练的街巷中,朝着商定的处所奔去。在她骑过一个街口时,陡然从侧面驶来一辆卡车,她重重地跌倒在地,再也莫得起来。对于路东说念主来说,她只是是一个无关的生分东说念主;可对于Dexter来说,她是他的总共世界,是他在这世界上最后的灵魂之光。她死了,他的心也随着总共死了。Dexter再次沉迷于乙醇,在夜场的迷离灯光中寻找着和她相似的身影,直至醉酒闯事被东说念主痛打……他的前妻不得不把他送到他父亲家中。看着面容憔悴、形销骨立的犬子,不善辞吐的父亲用他特有的方式安危着犬子。

Father: I don't want a heart-to-heart. Do you?

Dexter: No, no. I'd rather not.

Father: Except to say, that I think the best thing that you could do would be to try to live your life as if Emma was still here. Don't you?

Dexter: I don't know if I can.

Father: Of course you can. What do you think I've been doing for the past 10 years?

“就作为念她还辞世”,好好地活下去,即是对骸骨最佳的哀痛。

伊东说念主已逝,爱恋依旧

转倏得,Emma离开东说念主世已三年。Dexter依旧在巴黎经营他的小餐厅,就像Emma还生活在我方身边一样。2009年7月15日,又是一个难过的日子。这一天,Dexter见到了Emma也曾的男友Ian。Emma与Ian在餐厅打工时相识。Ian也曾可爱着她,可她永远无法真实爱上他。Ian知说念她一直爱着另一个男东说念主。Ian虽然曾记恨过她爱着的阿谁男东说念主,但在她离去后,Ian也终于逐步释然了。

Ian: I hate today. Fifteenth of July.

Dexter: Saint Swithin's Day. It's a tough one.

Ian: I never noticed it before, but it was always there just waiting, lurking. I used to hate you, too, quite violently, actually, Dexter ... because she lit up with you. Just in a way that she never would with me, and it used to make me so angry because I didn't think that you deserved her. Can I say this?

Dexter: Yeah, go on.

Ian: She made you decent. And then in return, you made her so happy. So happy. And I will always be grateful to you for that.

2011年7月15日,Emma和Dexter相识的第23年,在他们的第23个记挂日,Dexter来到他和Emma曾爬过的一座小山。23年前,他们初识那天,Emma曾带他来过这里。那天,天很高,云很淡,冷风习习,她站在他身边,和他总共纵眺着市区的风光。23年后,她的声息浑沌还震动在他耳边……

Emma: I don't want you thinking I'm bothered or anything about last night. I don't want your phone number, or letters, or postcards. I don't want to get married to you. Definitely don't want to have your babies. Whatever happens tomorrow, we've had today. And if we should bump into6) each other sometime in the future, well, that's fine, too. We'll be friends.

23年,她一直在守候,他一直吊儿郎当;23年,她用强项的爱换来他最终的悔恨;23年,她是他的灵魂伴侣,他是她此生的挚爱;23年,他们相约每年盛夏的那天相见,从友东说念主到亲信,从亲信到恋东说念主。23年,她等得太久,而他太后知后觉。当她简直离去,他才瓦解,她是此生深入骨髓的挚爱,从此再难寻觅。

Blue Valentine蓝色情东说念主节:这即是爱情?

◎ 文 / 陈文宇

恋时的激情、相知后的默契、习尚后的厌倦,开心并伤心着,甜蜜并苦难着,期待并失望着,可爱却抵抗着——难说念这即是爱情?

影片《蓝色情东说念主节》(Blue Valentine)聚焦于一双好意思国年青鸳侣,将他们也曾热恋的好意思好和婚配生活中的煎熬抒发得长篇大论。这不单是是一部论述爱情故事的电影,更像是一部描写东说念主生的影片。导演试图通过影片提倡我方的疑问:爱情究竟是如何变质的?为何也曾的好意思好会变成不胜的回忆?为何也曾的胸无城府会变成恶语相向?当相爱的东说念主终于走入婚配的殿堂,当他们的爱情阅历平淡生活的消磨和时间的历练,一切是否还会如当初那般好意思好?

平淡无奇的婚配生活

影片一运行,一个小女孩在花坛里焦灼地招呼她的爱犬Megan。小女孩找不到爱犬,跑去屋里将正在沉睡的父亲摇醒。这是一个普通的早晨,迷雾笼罩在房前的花坛里,总共城市正在逐步苏醒,天光漫过窗帘照进Dean和Cindy的家。Dean和Cindy结婚六年,住在一个不算高等的社区,领有一幢不大不小的屋子,养育一个可人的女儿Frankie。Cindy是一家私东说念主诊所的照应,Dean莫得郑重的责任,靠一又友先容打一些零工。没活儿的时候,Dean就在家陪着女儿,是个典型的恋家男东说念主。

女孩摇醒了父亲,父女俩又闹醒了还在沉睡的母亲。对于这普通的三口之家来说,平淡无奇的一天又运行了。Cindy快速准备好早餐,Dean则不顾一旁焦灼繁忙的细君,与女儿开心肠玩着游戏。一个是为家庭生活和字画卯酉的责任忙得计无所出的年青姆妈,一个是童心未泯的居家爸爸,看似正常的婚配生活就像一潭高妙莫测的湖水,口头简洁,实则感触万千。

Cindy放工后一直寻找爱犬,却在路边发现了已被车撞死的Megan。Megan的不测离去让悲伤的心绪运行在家里膨胀。为了不让女儿察觉到家里的异样,他们把女儿送到了外公家暂住。

下葬了Megan,鸳侣俩再也难掩自责和悲伤的心情。此时恰逢情东说念主节,Dean不想在压抑的愤激中渡过这个节日,于是提议鸳侣二东说念主去情东说念主酒店共度一晚,一来缓解Megan之死带来的悲伤,二来重温两东说念主热恋时的激情。但是,忙于家务的Cindy对这一提议并无多大兴味。但在Dean的缓助和苦求下,她强迫答理了。

在驱车赶赴酒店的路上,Cindy去路边的超市购物,在哪里偶遇大学时的恋东说念主Bobby。当年,正是Dean的横刀夺爱导致Cindy与Bobby分手,Bobby曾为此对Dean衔恨在心。如今,六七年昔时了,Cindy已为东说念主母,每天过着单调的婚配生活,陡然在这个时候偶遇依然很有魔力的昔日恋东说念主,她若干显得有些尴尬和惶恐不安。

Bobby: Oh, my God. Is that Cindy Heller?

Cindy: Bobby Ontario?

Bobby: How are you?

Cindy: I'm good. How are you?

Bobby: I'm ... you know, I'm hanging in there. Wow, it's been a while. How about you?

Cindy: Yeah, here … here. Been here, stayed here, never left here.

Bobby: Here's good. Here's good. Married?

Cindy: Married. Married.

Bobby: That's crazy. Lucky guy. Have you been faithful to him?

Cindy: That's a strange question to ask somebody you haven't seen forever.

Bobby: Yeah, well, you know ... seriously.

Cindy: Yes ... I have. I mean, I have ... I have been ... Why are you looking at me like that?

Bobby: I'm not looking at you like anything.

Cindy: Oh. OK.

在随后的路径中,Dean发现Cindy的心绪有些颠倒。在Dean的追问下,Cindy论述了她偶遇Bobby的经过。Dean为此醋意大发,一齐上都在逼问和责骂Cindy,两东说念主之间的对话充满了炸药味。也许,对于这对正濒临“七年之痒”的鸳侣来说,婚配的真实问题并不在于Cindy昔日恋东说念主的出现,而是两东说念主的内心对生活和爱情产生了怀疑和动摇。夙夜共处了七年后,他们如实需要找点新的“兴奋点”来刺激我方的爱情。

Dean满怀期待的情东说念主酒店并不如联想中那么落拓。房间装修得很疏漏,有些设计显得滑稽好笑。深蓝色的灯光充斥在窄小的房间里,像无数颗肃静无声的悲伤眼泪,仿佛预示着这注定不会是一个好意思好的情东说念主节之夜。过问房间后,岂论Dean奈何悉力转念愤激,Cindy都无法开心起来。她压抑着不放心的心绪,陪着还是完全莫得崭新感的老公,渡过这个在她看来毫无意旨的滑稽夜晚。Dean为Cindy播放了他们热恋时时听的那首歌,老练的旋律再次响起,两个东说念主伴着音乐相拥而舞,却体会不到也曾的温存。歌曲在沉寂中悄然罢了。他看着她,她喝醉了。当热恋的激情退去,当一个女东说念主从青娥过渡到少妇,她需要的还是不单是是花前月下你侬我侬的落拓,更需要实实在在的物资保险。于是,Cindy终于说念出了她一直邑邑寡欢的原因。

Cindy: Why don't you do something?

Dean: What do you mean?

Cindy: Isn't there something you want to do?

Dean: Like what?

Cindy: I don't know. You're so good at so many things. You could do anything you wanted to do. You're good at everything that you do. Isn't there something else you wanna do?

Dean: Than what? Than be your husband? To be Frankie's dad? What do you want me to do? What? In your, like, dream scenario of me, like, doing what I'm good at, what would that be?

Cindy: I don't know. You're so good at so many things. You can do so many things. You have such capacity…. You can sing. You can draw. You can dance.

Dean: Listen, I didn't wanna be somebody's husband. OK? And I didn't wanna be somebody's dad. That wasn't my goal in life. Some guy's it is ... wasn't mine. But somehow, I've ... It was what I wanted. I didn't know that. And it's all I wanna do ... I don't want to do anything else. That's what I want to do. I work so I can do that.

Cindy: I'd like to see you have a job where you didn't have to start drinking at eight o'clock in the morning to go to it.

Dean: No, I have a job that I can drink at eight o'clock in the morning. What a luxury, you know? I get up for work. I have a beer. I go to work. I paint somebody's house. They're excited about it. I come home. I get to be with you. This is the dream.

Cindy: It doesn't ever disappoint you?

Dean: Why? Why would it disappoint me?

Cindy: Because you have all this potential.

Dean: I could still do whatever I could do. So what? Why do you have to make money off your potential?

Cindy: Look, I'm not even saying you have to make money off it. Don't you miss it?

Dean: What does even potential mean? What does that mean, potential? Potential for what? To turn it into what?

Cindy: We rarely sit down and have an adult conversation, because every time we do you take what I say and you turn it around into something I didn't mean. You just ... twist it. Start blabbing, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

Dean: If you're not interested in what I have to say, then maybe I just shouldn't say anything.

Dean只想过一种朴素的生活,有一份简单的责任,随时伴随在妻女身边。他依然秉持着一颗神圣的童心对抗着现实的世界。也许他还不解白,Cindy早已不再是阿谁身穿鲜明纱裙的女孩,他也不再是阿谁为了追求满意女孩而在路边高声唱歌的男孩。他们早已运行了布帛菽粟的现实生活。现实生活不再需要他那颗未泯的童心,而是需要他找一份富厚的责任,承担起养家活口的包袱。七年前,Cindy爱上了他的单纯和落拓。七年后,Cindy不肯看到他依然如斯专揽自若,莫得上进心。

由于主意无法统一,两个东说念主愈吵愈烈。最终,Cindy把我方锁在了情东说念主酒店的小卧室里,两个东说念主就这样隔着一说念小小的卧室门,渡过了这个悲伤的情东说念主节。以前热恋中那些幸福的时刻当今险些都成了令东说念主苦难的回忆。Cindy和Dean将何去何从?情东说念主节夜里的这次争吵是重生活的着手,照旧他们婚配生活的绝顶?

一见寄望的甜蜜恋曲

时间转回至七年前。

七年前,Cindy是个金发碧眼的漂亮姑娘,在大学读医学专科;Dean是个从佛罗里达来纽约闯荡的英俊小伙,在一家搬家公司责任。一次未必的契机,Cindy和Dean在养老院相遇了。Cindy来养老院看外婆,Dean帮一位老东说念主搬家到养老院。Cindy的外婆就住在Dean干事的老东说念主的卧房对面。就在Cindy打开房门的刹那间,他们险些同期看到了对方。午后的阳光衬托着Cindy温柔的状貌,Dean就这样爱上了她天然的金发、羞赧的笑颜和周身赋闲出的犹如夏花般的活力。第一次见面,Dean给了Cindy一张柬帖,从此便运行日日历待Cindy的电话。

那时的Cindy还是在大学里有了一位男友,名叫Bobby。他们常在课后的裂缝幽会,恣意豪侈品着芳华的时光,并不严防将来会发生什么。Cindy一度对她与Bobby之间的步地感到勾引。频频这样的时候,她总会向外婆倾吐。

Cindy: What did it feel like when you fell in love?

Grandma: Oh, dear, I don't think I found it.

Cindy: Even with Grandpa?

Grandma: Maybe a little in the beginning. He didn't really have any regard for me as a person. You've gotta be careful of that. You've gotta be careful that the person that you fall in love ... is worth it to you.

Cindy: I don't ever want to be like my parents. I know that they must have loved each other at one time, right? Did they just get it all out of the way before they had me? How do you trust your feelings when they can just disappear like that?

Grandma: I think the only way you can find out is ... to have the feeling. You're a good person, honey. I think you have the right to say, “Yes, I do trust. I trust myself.”

Cindy在一个典型的好意思国中产阶层家庭长大。从记事以来,她就频频目击父母之间的矛盾和争吵。父亲老是不懂得尊重母亲,有什么动怒就怒声呵斥母亲。母亲一直默默承受着父亲的顽皮,过着压抑的生活。在Cindy看来,这不应该是爱情本来的形状。要是两个东说念主最先是因为相爱而结婚,那为什么当他们终于遂愿以偿走入婚配殿堂后,却又运行相互伤害呢?是什么导致了步地的变质?这些疑问一直藏在Cindy的心里,她找不到谜底。就这样,带着对爱情的畏俱和期待的矛盾心情,Cindy暗暗与Bobby谈着恋爱,虽然她心里通晓,Bobby不是她真实想要的阿谁东说念主。

Dean的出现改造了这一切。他就像夏季绿地里生机盎然的小草,清新、简单、可人。他带着天生的幽默感和未泯的童心走入Cindy的生活。他不像Bobby那般强势和狂热,而是清新和落拓的化身,总会用些看似不经意的小点子打动Cindy的心。Dean的温柔柔贴心让Cindy感受到了她从小就缺失的温文。就这样,两个东说念主运行逐步走进相互的心里。他们在街边快乐地奔走高出。他弹起木吉他、唱着小情歌,她跳着随心的踢踏舞。爱情就这样来终末,就好像一朵娇艳欲滴的花,跋扈地助长,不怕惧时间会让其凋零。

但Bobby不肯收受Cindy心中已有他东说念主的事实,依旧对Cindy死缠烂打。Cindy忽视地隔绝Bobby的求情,与Dean堕入了爱河。他们在热恋中沉醉,第一次以为对方是如斯适应我方。不久后,Cindy发现我方怀胎了,但孩子却不是Dean而是Bobby的。懊悔的Cindy一时不知所措,但照旧决定向Dean精炼一切,因为他是如斯可爱着她。Dean最终遴荐与Cindy总共面对这个窘境。他守旧Cindy留住孩子,承诺会给她一个暖热的家。两个东说念主在莫得任何九故十亲的伴随下,在小镇低调地举行了婚典。

那段时光,两个东说念主是幸福的。但真实的生活老是不同于好意思好的童话故事。故事里王子与公主的幸福结局只是现实生活的开场。初入婚配殿堂的Cindy和Dean全然没专诚志到他们会在六年后堕入令东说念主绝望的婚配危险。

一触即发的情感危险

在情东说念主酒店里渡过了令东说念主颓废的情东说念主节之夜后,Cindy开车去诊所上班,留住Dean一东说念主在酒店沉睡。Dean醒来后发现Cindy已独自离开,以为家里发生了什么事,于是焦灼地赶往Cindy责任的诊所。到诊所见到Cindy后,他得知家里一切安好。Dean实在不解白,我方如斯可爱着细君和非亲生的女儿,为何Cindy对我方却如斯忽视和动怒。他试图和Cindy谈谈,但Cindy无心交谈,劝他赶快回家。Dean无法平复心中积了一个晚上的怨气,签订要与Cindy说个通晓。面对带着一身酒气的Dean,Cindy失去了总共的放心,终于说念出了一直压抑在心底的愤懑。

Cindy: I'm so out of love with you. I've got nothing left for you. Nothing, nothing, nothing! There is nothing here for you!

Dean: Don't say stuff you can't take back.

Cindy: You fucking asked for it. You asked me. You asked me. I talked to you.

Dean: I couldn't drive you crazy unless I love you.

Cindy: I gave you the goddamn answer and you don't like it. I'm more man than you are.

Dean: Don't say that shit about being a man.

就在Dean与Cindy热烈地争吵时,Cindy的上级前来劝戒,试图让Dean离开诊所。Dean心中的怒气透顶爆发,一拳上去把Cindy的上级打倒在地。Cindy拉着丈夫离开诊所,并在路上向他提倡了仳离。伤心绝望的Dean一气之下把结婚抑制丢进了泊车场的草丛里,却又在上车的眨眼间后悔,下车淘气地找他丢掉的抑制。

Cindy和Dean回到了Cindy父亲的家里。这也许是他们最后一次面对面简洁地讲话了。Dean依然可爱着Cindy,可爱着小女儿。他不想仳离,不想破除他们的婚配。

Dean: You know, it's not just us. We got a little girl we gotta think about.

Cindy: I know. I am thinking about her. I can't do this anymore.

Dean: Baby, you're just thinking about yourself. What about Frankie? You want her to grow up in a broken home? Is that what you want?

Cindy: I don't want her to grow up in a home where her parents treat each other like this.

Dean: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Baby, I'm just fighting, you know, fighting for my family. I don't know what to do. I don't know what else to do. Tell me what to do.

Cindy: I don't know what to do.

Dean: Just tell me. I'll do it. I'll do it.

虽然Dean依然爱着Cindy,但Cindy却对这段婚配失去了但愿。不知所措的Dean哭得像一个孩子,他无法收受爱情变质的现实,悉力想要挽回。

Dean: Baby, you made a promise to me. You said for better or worse. You said that. You said it. It was a promise.

Cindy: I'm sorry.

Dean: Now, this is my worst. OK? This is my worst.

Cindy: I'm sorry.

Dean: But I'm gonna get better. You just got to give me a chance to get better.

Cindy: I'm sorry.

Dean: I love you so much.

婚典上的誓词还在耳边震动,也曾的甜蜜拥吻似乎就发生在昨天,好意思好的过往不竭在目下浮现,但这一切都无法辞谢爱情的虚弱,也无法抚平婚配的伤疤。两个东说念主在灰暗的厨房里相拥而泣。Dean瓦解,在Cindy决绝地说出对不起的那一刻,一切都力所不及了。

要是早知说念会有今天的结局,他还会娶她吗?她还会嫁给她吗?时间无法倒流,也曾的爱情也触目伤怀。热恋时的激情、相知后的默契、习尚后的厌倦,开心并伤心着,甜蜜并苦难着,期待并失望着,可爱却抵抗着——难说念这即是爱情?

落日下,小镇的街说念堕入了阴暗和沉寂。不知是谁焚烧了烟花,温柔的炊火迅速盛开在半空中,又迅速地归隐在落日下。Dean孤身一东说念主离开了Cindy的父亲家,痛心刻骨的背影在夕阳下显得尤为落寞。

又一个烟花在太空中爆裂了,那稍纵则逝的炊火犹如他们的爱情。也许爱情简直不成永久,但至少,它曾像烟花一样绚烂地盛开过。

Bright Star亮堂的星:生命如蝶,爱情如诗

◎ 文 / 章苒苒“

期冀你我能化身成蝶,只在缤纷的夏季中存活三日;有你伴随的三日,胜过50年的沉静岁月。”

—— John Keats (约翰·济慈) to Fanny Brawne (芬妮·勃劳恩)

John Keats是一个敷裕传闻颜色的东说念主物:他因书写落拓诗篇而赋闲永久之好意思,又因英年早逝而愈显弥足寥落。Oscar Wilde在我方的诗作中镶嵌过他的名字,Arthur Rimbaud步过他气运的后尘。年仅25岁的生命能如斯光彩炫目、可歌可泣,除了他那些不灭诗作赋闲的光泽外,天然少不了刺心刻骨的爱情的点缀。

这是个也许不被东说念主所熟知的爱情故事。1818年的夏天,23岁的诗东说念主Keats借住在一又友Charles Brown家,与邻居Fanny Brawne悄悄燃起了爱情的火花,并由此渡过了他性射中最幸福亦然最后的18个月。这份醇好意思诚挚的爱情良晌得如烟花盛开,美丽得宛若星辰。澳大利亚女导演Jane Campion接下用影像记挂Keats的重负,截取了他性射中这段最为美丽的年华,以祭奠其刺心刻骨的落拓爱情。影片的名字正是取自Keats写给Fanny的一首情诗的标题——《亮堂的星》(Bright Star)。

相遇

Keats在诗作《亮堂的星》中这样描写他与爱东说念主Fanny的绸缪:

Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast

To feel for ever its soft fall and swell

Awake for ever in a sweet unrest

Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath

And so live ever—or else swoon

在如斯梦幻的倾吐眼前,也许每个东说念主目下浮现的Fanny都会是一张温柔可东说念主的清丽面貌。然而影片中的Fanny并不是这样的,她最先给东说念主的印象与诗作的描写判然不同。她傲头傲脑,像刺猬一样不招东说念主喜欢,是那种凭借好意思貌拒东说念主于沉之外的大姑娘。她平素里炉火纯青,一副不放肆被投诚的形状,但过得却是很普通的淑女式生活:如期参加舞会,罢职传统的交际方式。而Keats在那时只是一个成就卑微的穷诗东说念主,诗才横溢却得不到招供。他莫得经济来源,借住在一又友Brown家,靠一又友们的接济为生。当Fanny随从她的家东说念主总共探问邻居Brown家时,她在哪里第一次见到了Keats。此时的Keats正因为他体弱多病的弟弟而私下神伤,Fanny的到来并未激起他多大的热沈。

Fanny: Would you like biscuits?

Keats: You've come to spy.

Fanny: Spy?

Keats: How will you describe me? My character?

Fanny: I am not the least interested in your character.

Keats: My jacket, then? Or my pantaloons

Fanny: You need a new jacket—that's what I would say.

Keats: Is that all?

Fanny: It should be of velvet, blue velvet.

Keats: Tell me, Miss Brawne, how can you be so sure?

Fanny: Well, all I wear, I've sewn and designed myself. I'm often told I am clever to exception about design. I originated the pleats on my dress which are charming ...

Brown: To Keats] Has she annoyed you sufficiently? She has done brilliant well with me. To Fanny] Men's room, out. Poets got to do a bit of writing.

Fanny: My stitching

Keats: Goodbye, minxstress.

Fanny: And I can make money from it.

Keats和Fanny的初度交谈迷漫着一股浓烈的炸药味,Keats认为Fanny是一个只提防外在、喜欢打扮的粗拙女子,而Fanny亦对Keats留恋的诗歌创作莫得任何兴味,以致有点小瞧这位穷诗东说念主。这位很有特性的大姑娘为了进一步证据我方看低Keats是正确的,就让弟弟在书店买了一册Keats的诗集《恩底弥翁》(Endymion),想望望这位诗东说念主的作品有多晦涩。然而,才读过几行,Fanny便被诗中丽都的辞藻和丰沛的情感所投诚了。

几天后,Fanny与Keats在一次舞会上再次相见,Fanny主动与Keats交谈,并赞扬了诗集《恩底弥翁》的完好意思开篇。当Fanny得知Keats一直在独自护理患肺结核的弟弟后,她悉心准备了礼物,去探望Keats的弟弟。她的这一举动让Keats对她的印象也有所改不雅。渐渐地,随着两东说念主往来的加多,Fanny与Keats渐渐情感暗生。然而,本该隐世无争渡过一世的中产阶层女子却爱上一位成就卑微、弯曲凹凸的诗东说念主,其结局将注定是惨烈的。无奈Fanny却应许腐朽在Keats那良好丽都的诗句里,享受爱情的甜密。

留恋

留恋是Keats对待诗歌的一种立场。非论是春季里的花卉鸟兽,照旧秋季里的丰充现象,以致是路边放肆的风光都能令他才念念泉涌,更何况是心中滂沱着的诚挚爱情。Keats在寄居一又友家的这段时间写下了奠定他日后在文体界不灭地位的最要紧的诗篇。而Fanny对于爱情的留恋,也涓滴不失神于Keats对于诗歌的执着。她并不像其他堕入初恋的青娥那样憨涩矜持,而是勇敢地抒发我方真实的感受。在一个阳光明媚的早晨,Fanny端着咖啡来到了Keats的身边。

Fanny: I was wondering this morning if you're sleeping in my bed.

Keats: Pardon?

Fanny: You see, I believe you are. We rented Mr. Brown's half of the house this summer while you were journeying in Scotland. Which room do you sleep in?

Keats: The one overlooking the back garden.

Fanny: That was my bed. For proof, pull it from the wall and by the pillow, you will find a figure I drew with pin holes.

Keats: Is the figure you?

Fanny: It's a fairy princess.

这是一段赋闲着玫瑰清香的对白,某种拖沓的喜悦悄然盛开在两东说念主之间。其后,Fanny藉学诗之名与Keats独处,而这位平素言行不羁的后生也对她说念出了我方对于爱情的阴暗。

Keats: I'm not sure I have the right feelings towards women. I'm suspicious of my feelings.

Fanny: Do you not like me?

Keats: I'm attracted to you without knowing why. All women confuse me, even my mother. I yearn to be ruined by shrews

Keats真诚地向Fanny精炼他毫无恋爱讲授的巧妙,而Fanny爱的正是他纯净的灵魂。这次坦诚的疏浚又一次拉近了相互的距离。可正派Keats与Fanny爱得浓情蜜意之时,两东说念主却不得不濒临第一次分离。Keats为了糊口不得不和Brown总共远行,赴外乡寻求灵感。Fanny原以为我方能撑得昔时,却不想在折柳之后濒临淘气。若不是爱东说念主寄来的话语饱含深情,她怕是要死在荒废的念念念里了。Keats在给Fanny的信中这样描写念念念的煎熬:“My dearest lady, I am now at a very pleasant cottage window looking onto a beautiful hilly country, with a view of the sea. The morning is very fine. I do not know how elastic my spirit might be, what pleasure I might have in living here if the remembrance of you did not weigh so upon me. Ask yourself, my love, whether you are not very cruel to have so entrammelle

Fanny躺在花丛中读信,彻亮的相念念泪在信纸上耀眼,灿若晨星。她和弟弟妹妹们捉来了许多温柔的彩蝶养在睡房内,逐日看着它们翩翩漂荡,感受着她与Keats如彩蝶般缤纷的爱情。然而,即便这伴着相念念之苦的甜蜜亦然良晌的,在很永劫间未给Fanny写信后,Keats终于寄来了一封短信。让Fanny万分失意的是,Keats在信中写说念,他不成再回到Fanny身边了,因为他依然莫得赚到钱,无法给Fanny一个承诺。一心期盼爱东说念主归来的Fanny岂肯承受这样的打击?她年青的生命差点因此而坠落。

Fanny的家东说念主运步履她对Keats的痴狂感到恐慌,他们试图劝她离开Keats,找一位家景殷实的闻东说念主嫁掉。但Fanny早已不可自拔。虽然Keats不曾给她任何承诺,她却执着地认定Keats即是她一世要恭候的东说念主。这份留恋,让饱受念念念之苦的Keats再次回到了她身边。

永久

尽管影片从新到尾均是明媚的色调,古典小提琴悠扬的弦音也震动永远,但Keats苍白的脸颊和他眼中时时掠过的忧愁却为影片平添了一份伤感,预示着结局必定少不了那一声凄切的泣音。

Keats的好友Brown老是白眼旁不雅Fanny与Keats的这段步地,他一直不看好他们,因为他早已在与Keats的往来中窥知他好景不常的宿命。Brown劝Keats离开Fanny,别将有限的时间滥用在情意绵绵上。

Brown: As one who truly loves you, I must warn you kindly of a trap that you are walking into, John.

Keats:If you are going to speak of Miss Brawne, we have never agreed and cannot agree.

Brown: For one or two of your “slippery blisses,” you'll lose your freedom permanently. You will be slaving at medicine 15 hours a day, and for what? To keep Mrs. Keats in French ribbon. I cherish your talent. I truly do.

Keats:Then allow me my happiness, for I am writing again.

正如Brown所料,不幸终究照旧来临到这对恋东说念主身上。在一个冰寒的夜晚,从外归来的Keats面色苍白,运行不竭地咯血,底本他也患上了夺走他弟弟生命的顽症——肺结核。从此之后,Keats不得不住手写稿,躺在床上坦然保重。Brown为了富厚Keats的病情,拦截Fanny来探望和护理Keats。他们两东说念主只可隔着玻璃,用视力和写在纸条上的三言五语来传递相念念之情。尽管Fanny的家东说念主接力劝她破除这段注定莫得抑制的步地,但Fanny照旧不管三七二十一地与Keats订了婚。

转瞬冬季就要来临,Keats的一又友们挂牵他熬不外英国冰寒湿气的冬天,便决定凑钱送他到表象暖热的意大利调治。尽管Keats心里瓦解,此去也许将永无归期,但他为了不亏负一又友们的一派情意,照旧决定赶赴意大利。在Keats与Fanny分开的前通宵,两东说念主难分难舍,一同联想也许永远都无法完结的将来。

Fanny: You know I would do anything.

Keats: I have a conscience. Let's pretend I will return in spring.

Fanny: You will return.

Keats: We will live in the country.

Fanny: Close to Mama.

Keats: And our bedroom will look out onto a little apple orchard and, beyond that, a mountain in a mist.

Fanny: We can make a garden where every sort of wildflower grows.

Keats: And we will go to bed while the sun is still high.

Fanny: And when it becomes dark, the moon will shine through the shutters.

Keats: And I will hold you close and kiss your breasts, your arms, and your waist.

Fanny: Everywhere.

Keats: Touch has a memory.

Fanny: I know it.

这是影片中最亲密的一组镜头,尽管他们的灵魂已契合无比,但Keats却因无法许给Fanny一个将来,未敢越雷池一步。尔后,往来于意大利和Fanny家的一封封情书便成了两东说念主之间独一的精神交付。

在一个暗淡的冬夜,Brown带着写有死讯的书信来探问Fanny一家,他嗓音沙哑地读了Keats的临终信函。在莫得Fanny伴随的日子,Keats带着一颗萧索却溢满念念念的心离世了。Fanny一直憧憬的幸福大厦轰然倒塌,她瑟索在楼梯下呜咽,肉痛到无法呼吸。失去Keats的日子,Fanny的心成了一潭死水。尔后贯串多年,她衣服黑衣为Keats守寡,每天都沉浸在对昔时的回忆中,常于薄暮时独自徜徉在她与Keats曾去过的森林,口中喃喃念出爱东说念主为他写下的诗句:

Would I were stedfast as thou art—

Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night

And watching, with eternal lids apart

Like nature's patient, sleepless

Eremite

Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast

To feel for ever its soft fall and swell

Awake for ever in a sweet unrest

Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath

And so live ever—or else swoon to death

这其中的不悔与执着,唯有死活相隔的爱东说念主最心知肚明。《亮堂的星》不是电影,而是一首书写在胶片上的长诗,亘古亘今凡是多情东说念主,都应该将它贴入怀中,用来暖心。

Vicky Cristina Barcelona午夜巴塞罗那:爱情迷宫

◎ 文 / 海洋

有东说念主说:“看电影是为了品尝生活,而旅行则是为了放飞生活。”如斯看来,随着电影去旅行,因为一部电影而爱上一座城,似乎也就严容庄容了。好意思国电影导演Woody Allen就在影片《午夜巴塞罗那》(Vicky Cristina Barcelona)中指挥众人走进了一座绮丽、梦幻的艺术之城。在这座城市中,两位女主角为爱淘气、为爱迷失、为爱困惑,仿佛步入了一座爱情的迷宫。那么,她们最终能否找到出口,走出迷宫?

《午夜巴塞罗那》是素有鬼才导演之称的Woody Allen第一次在欧洲拍摄的影片,拍摄地巴塞罗那的非常风情和Woody的论述方式让这部影片充满了落拓主义颜色与戏剧性。影片的主东说念主公是两位性格迥异的好意思国姑娘Vicky和Cristina,她们在去巴塞罗那度假时,相遇了一位敷裕魔力的西班牙画家Juan和他温柔性感的前妻Maria,并与他们发生了一系列与爱情臆测的奇事。

该影片称得上是一部特立独行、发东说念主深省的电影。Woody用巴塞罗那的炽烈抒发了情侣之间的隔膜、激情与分离,并启发咱们念念考内心深处一些无法回话或不敢面对的问题。Vicky和Cristina在巴塞罗那碰到爱情,并迷失其中,最终又告别了这良晌的爱情,带着对生活的一些顿悟和新的猜疑,不绝开拔。

Vicky:肃静与情感

Vicky,硕士酌量生,正经优雅,有着深棕色的披肩长发和高挑瘦弱的身材。影片一运行,旁白便如斯先容她:

Vicky had no tolerance for pain and no lust for combat. She was grounded and realistic. Her requirements in a man were seriousness and stability.

这段叙述空洞了Vicky的性格:现实、肃静、缺乏冒险精神。她凡事寻求富厚,不喜欢走弯路,渴慕专一富厚的步地生活。因此,Vicky的只身夫Doug可谓完全相宜她的圭表:训练严防、为东说念主方正、行状凯旋、步地专一。然而,看起来如斯一帆风顺的生活,却因她和Cristina的一趟巴塞罗那之旅透顶变了样。

到达巴塞罗那后,Vicky和Cristina投止在一双老汉妇Judy和Mark家中。Judy带Vicky和Cristina参不雅画廊,在哪里她们第一次见到了西班牙画家Juan。从Judy口中得知Juan和他的前妻相互深深伤害并仳离的故过后,Vicky对Juan并莫得好感。因此,当Juan邀请Vicky和Cristina去西班牙小镇奥维耶多共度周末时,Vicky本能地拒抗,认为这是个potentially fatal mistake。但由于Cristina欢然应邀,Vicky也不得不同他们一同赶赴奥维耶多。

在奥维耶多,Cristina的不测生病给了Vicky与Juan独处的契机。Juan带Vicky游览小镇得意,凝听西班牙吉他演奏。在柔柔优好意思的吉他曲风中,在巴塞罗那厚情落拓的夜色里,在Juan温柔视力的俘获下,一向肃静的Vicky竟自然而然地与Juan发生了一段情。尔后频频想起此事,她都感到不安和困惑。即使在她的只身夫Doug赶来巴塞罗那与她完婚后,她依然被我方内心的矛盾折磨得邑邑寡欢。Juan给了Vicky不一样的体验,让她发现了原有生活中的劣势,也让她不有自主般地爱上了这个充满激情的艺术家。是对Doug闪避我方与Juan的步地,不绝过她以前设计的模式化生活?照旧因这一时的冲动而破除我方原以为完好意思的婚配?Vicky猬缩去主动遴荐,她试图肃静地分析总共的来龙去脉,但到底也没分析出个是以然来。

其实在客不雅上,Vicky一直受到Judy潜移暗化的影响。Judy和Mark是Vicky的一房远亲,多年前他们从好意思国搬到了巴塞罗那。老媪东说念主Judy与Vicky一样,肃静、有训诲,认为我方有明确的生活方针。而Mark就好似Doug,行动多礼,行状凯旋。Vicky与Cristina刚到巴塞罗那时,Judy曾这样评价Vicky以后的生活:“She's marrying this wonderful man in the fall and all her conflicts will be resolved when he makes her pregnant.”

这句话的意在言外是说:女东说念主嫁对东说念主最要紧,只消有个好老公,有孩子,其他的问题都会理丝益棼。可惜这个论断以致不成劝服Judy我方,因为她也正饱受步地的煎熬。在一次荟萃上,Vicky无意间撞见Judy和Mark的交易伙伴Jay Lewis亲热。其后Judy找Vicky倾吐了她的心声。

Judy: I'm not having an affair with Mark's partner.

Vicky: No, I didn't think you were.

Judy: Not that I haven't had fantasies of someone coming along and taking me out of my situation. But the fantasies are not Jay Lewis.

Vicky: Taking you out of your situation ... ?

Judy: I haven't been in love with Mark for years. I love him, but I'm not in love with him.

Vicky: I'm sorry to hear that.

Judy: It's funny. I just made the same speech to my shrink

Vicky: Well, what does your shrink say?

Judy: He says that I'm too frightened to act and that I'm looking for some kind of magical solution, which is unrealistic. And an affair is not the answer. Mark is great. I'm sure any dissatisfaction I have is my own problem. I'm just ... I can't leave him.

“I love him, but I'm not in love with him.”Judy这句话中的第一个love指广义的爱,包括对一又友、亲东说念主的爱,而第二个love专指恋爱。Judy的风趣是:她爱Mark如同爱亲东说念主那样,但他们之间已莫得恋东说念主的嗅觉了。Judy的矛盾和挣扎让Vicky看到了当今的我方,她和Judy一样,相通猬缩遴荐,相通缺乏勇气,相通不敢面对生活中的劣势。Vicky运行不竭拷问我方的内心,运行逐步面对她对Juan的步地,并对Judy掀开心扉说出了我方的感受,这让Judy感到既胆寒又兴奋。

Judy: Why don't you act on it?

Vicky: What? Break up with Doug, who's a really sweet guy, who married me in good faith, for a Bohemian Spanish painter with a passionate tie to an ex-wife who probably doesn't even share my feelings, if he ever did? Oh, God, who am I kidding? I … but the, the dream is exciting.

Judy: If I were you, I wouldn't waste another minute. I'd get on it. You're in love with him. Do something, or the years will pass by and you will be sorry, Vicky.

Vicky: No, no. What are you saying? Look, I can't risk everything. If, if Juan Antonio had never existed, I'd be fine with Doug.

Judy: Just fine? Just fine?

Vicky: Yes, as I planned.

Judy: How, how blunt do you want me to be? When I look at Doug, I see Mark.

尔后,Judy试图匡助Vicky与Juan再续前缘。但她的悉力差少许帮了倒忙:就在Vicky与Juan在他的画室见面时,Juan的前妻Maria陡然带入辖下手枪出现,最终Maria的手枪走火,Vicky的手因此受伤。Vicky与Juan的最后一次见面就以这样荒唐的方式罢了。最终,Vicky带着失意、不安和自责回到了Doug身边,她的这次随旅行而来的爱情就这样划上了句号。Judy的最后一次出场是与Mark并肩走在船埠,相互莫得任何语言或视力疏浚,这让不雅众仿佛看到了15年以后的Vicky与Doug。

Cristina:迷失与寻找

Cristina,Vicky的闺蜜,解放干事者。影片的旁白这样描写她:

She reluctantly accepted suffering as an inevitable component of deep passion and was resigned to putting her feelings at risk. If you asked what she was gambling her emotions on to win, she would have been unable to say. She knew what she didn't want, however.

Cristina有着一头凌乱的金发、绚烂的边幅和姣好的身材。她热沈奔放,酷好艺术,憎恶模式化的生活。她内心的困惑常常来自于无法找到一个抒发我方情感的出口,在她看来,爱情与艺术一样,难以得志她自我抒发的欲望。Cristina对爱情的贯通相配笼统,影片运行时,Vicky向Judy和Mark先容了Cristina曾参与编导和献艺过一部爱情短片。

Vicky: Shemade a film.

Judy: How exciting!

Cristina: It's twelve minutes.

Mark: What was it about?

Cristina: It was about ... why love is so hard to define.

Mark: Wow, that's a mighty big subject to handle in twelve minutes.

要为爱情下界说,对于Cristina的12分钟短片而言,是个太大的命题。Vicky所珍贵的面面俱到的爱情恰正是Cristina最不想要的,用Cristina的话来说,Doug和Mark那样的男东说念主都是“cookie cutter molds”,也即是“这个社会批量坐褥出来的毫无特色的东说念主”。

Cristina留恋Juan,正是因为他与这些男东说念主不同。Cristina第一次在画展上远远看到Juan时,他身着红色衬衫,拿着一杯红酒独自站在展厅中央,但看起来少许也不落寞,反而显得光泽四射。Juan与前妻Maria阅历过炽烈的爱情和失败的婚配。对Juan而言,苦难不仅是爱情的一部分,更是生活的一部分。他不知说念如何去爱一个东说念主,但这并没什么可降低的,就像他父亲所说:“After thousands of years of civilization, they still haven't learned to love.”他在邀请Vicky和Cristina共度周末时说:“Life is short. Life is dull. Life is full of pain. This is a chance for something special.”这个论调坐窝得回了Cristina的反应。在奥维耶多,Juan带Vicky和Cristina赏识雕饰时,曾有过底下一段对话。

Cristina: Are you very religious?

Juan: No. No, I'm not. The trick is to enjoy life, accepting it has no meaning whatsoever.

Cristina: No meaning? You don't even think that authentic love gives life meaning?

Juan: Yes, but love is so transient, isn't it? I was in love with the most incredible woman

Vicky: Yes?

Juan: She put a knife into me.

在Juan看来,爱情是一种良晌即逝的嗅觉,必须要把合手每一个眨眼间去透顶感受它的好意思妙。当爱情消散机,Juan不错绝不留念地离开他的伴侣,运行追求下一段爱情。但是也曾坚定不移的恋东说念主究竟为什么会不再相爱?而不再相爱的两个东说念主是否应该离开相互?Juan和他的前妻Maria也曾爱得如醉如痴,在别东说念主看来,他们皆备是天造地设的一双,不管是生活习尚照旧兴味爱好都那么合拍,但两个东说念主永远无法生活在总共。Juan曾对Cristina这样描写他和Maria的关系:

Juan: If you had only known her when I first met her. I mean, her beauty took your breath away. She chose me from a hundred men ready to kill for her. We were both sure that our relation was perfect, but there was something missing. You know, love requires such a perfect balance. It's like the human body. It may turn out that you have all the vitamins and minerals, but if there is a single, tiny ingredient missing, like, like ... salt, for example, one dies.

这里用盐作念例子很巧妙,盐在古代就黑白常寥落的物品。《圣经》里曾屡次提到盐的要紧性,耶稣曾对他的徒弟说过:“Ye are the salt of the earth.”(你们是这世间上流的中坚力量。) Juan对于盐的例如恰恰说明了恋东说念主之间有些东西看似无可无不可,但却像盐一样不可或缺。Juan与Maria之间缺失的东西不仅罢通晓他们的婚配,还让Maria过着一鳞半瓜的生活,她一直在探求她与Juan之间到底缺失什么,却永远无法得回实在的谜底。

追求激情的Cristina与Juan一拍即合,并运行同居。然而,正派两东说念主的关系发展富厚时,淘气的Maria却不测出现。Cristina不但莫得因此离开,反而被Maria非常的艺术气质深深招引。不久以后,Maria也发现,她和Juan之间虚浮的“salt”即是Cristina。有了Cristina,三个东说念主的关系陡然变得很完好意思。

Cristina: It's so apparent to me that you and Juan Antonio are still in love.

Maria: Our love will last forever. It's forever, but it just doesn't work. That's why it will always be romantic, because it cannot be complete.

Cristina: Well, maybe it can't be complete because, you know, I'm getting in the way or, I don't know....

Maria: No. Before you, we used to cause each other so much pain, so much suffering. Without you, all this would not be possible. You know why? Because you are the missing ingredient. You are like the tint that, added to a palette, makes the color beautiful.

导演Woody此处的设计带有神学颜色,把基督教“三位一体”的念念想引入到爱情中,认为在精神上三个东说念主的关系才是最富厚的,才能达到所谓的“complete”。可惜这种三个东说念主的爱恋关系并没能保管多久,Cristina有一天陡然发现这不是她想要的爱情和生活。经过一番顿悟,Cristina决定向Juan和Maria摊牌。

Cristina: I can't live like this forever.

Juan: What do you want?

Cristina: I want something different.

Juan: What?

Cristina: I don't know. Not this.

Juan: There is no answer, Cristina.

Maria: Don't you understand? She's gotten what she wanted. She wants something else. This isn't enough for her. It's like an illness. Nothing will ever be enough for her. This girl will never be satisfied with anything. I knew you would use us. And you used us. I knew it…. Chronic dissatisfaction, that's what you have. Big sickness.

就这样,Cristina被Maria会诊为“慢性不得志症”。Cristina离开后不久,Maria像以前一样与Juan在胡同里热烈地争吵,然后愤然离去。也许从来莫得齐备的爱情,正如Maria所说,只消残骸的爱情才是落拓的。他们三东说念主踏进于那种在别东说念主看来有些荒唐的关系中,却并不感到奇怪,因为他们都服气我方所遴荐的。但要是有一天陡然发现这一切都不是我方想要的奈何办?Cristina要寻找的谜底,恐怕巴塞罗那、Juan或是Maria都无法给她。

A Love Letter to Barcelona 致巴塞罗那的一封情书

巴塞罗那是西班牙除马德里之外最大的城市,是一座热沈、洞开、充满浓厚艺术气味的落拓之城。导演Woody说他想把这部电影的拍摄经由作为念“写给巴塞罗那的一封情书”。他没灵验传统的蒙太奇式的风光联播来展示巴塞罗那得意,但影片的每一个细节都展示了这座城市的卓尔不群:天马行空的高迪征战作风、醇香的红酒、午夜的吉他演奏会、风骚潇洒的男东说念主、风情万种的女东说念主、带着灼热阳光气味的街说念、不驰名的乡间小径……

巴塞罗那非常的风情被影片的配乐抒发得长篇大论。片中多数哄骗西班牙吉他,制造出一种撺拳拢袖的撩东说念主田地。从影片运行就不苟说笑的Vicky,只消在仲夏夜的露天走廊凝听西班牙吉他演奏时才露搬动东说念主的步地:“Spanish guitar music never failed to move Vicky in some magical way.”西班牙吉他带给Vicky的颤动可能和坠入爱河时的嗅觉相似,在奥维耶多的夜晚,Vicky正是和Juan总共听过吉他演奏后,才发现我方无法不屈Juan的魔力。尔后每一次想起Juan,醉东说念主的吉他声便会萦绕在她的脑海。

也许除了巴塞罗那,世界上莫得其他任何一座城市不错栽种如斯瑕玷的奇遇。这个夏天,Vicky、Cristina和车载斗量东说念主一样,为巴塞罗那所留恋,也为她所困惑,迷失于这座浩大的爱情迷宫中,正如影片的西班牙语主题歌Barcelona中所唱:

Barcelona, you are mistaken

You can't keep ignoring

That the world may be some other thing

And fly like a butterfly

Barcelona, it's so hot the heat leaves me cold inside

With this vice of living a lie

How beautiful your ocean would be

If I knew how to swim

The Break-up分手男女:可惜不是你

◎ 文 / 于晓东

勇敢地离开那些自利下利、不懂得真实抚玩你的东说念主,也许你会发现一派更好意思好的寰宇。

在2006年的爱情电影中,《分手男女》(The Break-up)无疑是最凯旋的一部,3810万好意思元的首映收入使其成为历史上首映收入第三高的爱情笑剧。影片的男女主角折柳由好莱坞当红笑剧影星Vince Vaughn和Jennifer Aniston主演。影片中有许多男女主角斗嘴的情节,特别是Vince Vaughn献艺的Gary身为明星导游,靠嘴皮子吃饭,语速很快,用词尖酸,他与Jennifer Aniston饰演的女主角Brooke的机敏对白号称一部英文“斗嘴圣经”。天然,在颇为搞笑的语言背后,影片也充满了对爱情生活的哲理阐释,让咱们在潜移暗化中对爱情又多了一份深深的了解。

分手风云

Gary是芝加哥某旅行公司的明星导游,很受搭客宽宥。他能说会说念,满嘴俏皮话,几秒钟内就不错惹得东说念主捧腹大笑。Brooke则在一家私东说念主艺术画廊责任,颇有艺术训诲,比起频频绵绵不竭的Gary,她更为内敛。

事实上,两东说念主闹分手的原因看似宽泛,不外为了锅碗瓢盆等家务事罢了。为了准备邀请亲戚一又友的晚餐,Brooke一放工就回家发愤着,Gary一趟家却玩起了电子游戏,Brooke要他维护,他却满嘴插科使砌,绝不介意。门铃响起,Gary赶紧跑去陶醉躲起来,把总共的责任都丢给了Brooke。席间吃饭,Gary对Brooke一方的亲戚也很不客气,就像是在煎熬中应答差使。等亲戚一又友们一走,他又回到电视前玩起了游戏。Brooke强压怒气,请Gary帮我方洗碗,Gary头也不回地说:“来日再洗。”于是这场分手风云像火山一样运行爆发。

Gary: You know, we can clean the dishes tomorrow.

Brooke: Gary, you know I don't like waking up to a dirty kitchen.

Gary: Who cares?

Brooke: I care! All right? I care! I busted my ass all day cleaning this house and then cooking that meal. And I worked today. It would be nice if you said thank you and helped me with the dishes.

Gary: Fine. I'll help you do the damn dishes.

Brooke: No. See? That's not what I want.

Gary: You just said that you want me to help you do the dishes.

Brooke: I want you to want to do the dishes.

Gary: Why would I want to do dishes?

Brooke: Why? See, that's my whole point.

Gary: Let me see if I'm following this, okay? Are you telling me that you're upset be-cause I don't have a strong desire to clean dishes?

Brooke: No. I'm upset because you don't have a strong desire to offer to do the dishes.

这里两个东说念主的逻辑有点绕,不外也很精彩。眼看我方有点理亏,Gary拿出男东说念主习用的“责任高深”为原理。不外这一招对Brooke并不收效,因为Brooke亦然干事女性,天天高深上班,和他总共按揭买房,涓滴莫得懈怠。

Gary: I'm busting my ass to be the best tour guide in the damn city, so I can make enough money to support both of us and hopefully you won't have to work one day.

Brooke: I want to work. All I ask, Gary, is that you show a little bit of appreciation.

在这招失败之后,缩手缩脚的Gary高歌受够了,要be left alone,正在气头上的Brooke摔门离去,从此运行了两东说念主的冷战。

弄假成真

争吵过后,Gary和Brooke都各自找到我方的好一又友倾吐。不外从内容上看,他们预想的问题却完全不同。Brooke只是想让Gary更加温顺我方的感受,但愿我方的立场能让他好好反省。

Brooke: I asked him to do one thing and he didn't do it. Then he complained that he had to do anything.... I just want him to care enough about this relationship to want to work on it ... Okay. Tonight just ... It just got a little out of hand, and hopefully he's just gonna realize that he's got some changes to make and he's gonna ... He's gonna come home and apologize.

而Gary所计议的却与Brooke完全不同。在Gary看来,Brooke只是拿一些琐碎的事情来烦他:We had a fight over the groceries I brought home. 而对于Brooke分手的气话,他但是负责对待,继而尽然预想他们分手后财产的分割,全然莫得悉力挽回两东说念主关系的风趣。抑制不言而喻,Brooke回到家,发现Gary还是对两东说念主在屋子的活动空间进行了分割:卧室属于Brooke,客厅属于Gary。Gary在客厅私下安放了台球桌,天然客厅的一切也都是乱翻了天。自此两东说念主的斗殴运行升级——先是Brooke按照Gary的逻辑,请我方的弟弟到我方卧室组织歌咏团,其后又听从我方雇主的建议,运行和帅哥约聚以刺激Gary,但愿他能悉力挽回这段步地。不外Gary通晓不为所动,他作念的一切似乎更要逼迫Brooke搬走。最后,为了挫折Brooke和其他男东说念主吃饭,Gary尽然在家里招了几个脱衣舞女,大跳艳舞。Brooke伤心绝顶,在一又友的调处下,两东说念主运行郑重的分手谈判。

Gary: Well, the only logical thing that I can think of is for her to move out of the condo, and then to pay me some sort of a penalty as compensation for the labor that I did all around the condo.

Brooke: What? What? Pay you compensation for your labor? We fixed this place up together. Are you nuts?

Gary: You went around with a sponge, and you went in the bathroom and you dotted footy shit.

Brooke: That was ... That's called aesthetics. It warmed this place up so it didn't look like an army barracks, which it was about to.

Gary: What I did, Brooke, has concrete value to the condo. I added concrete ... Well, let's just go on record. We're dealing with facts here. I did the tiling in the bathroom.

即使分割财产的时候,Gary依然咄咄逼东说念主,讥刺Brooke为房间所作念的讳饰为footy shit。不外,两东说念主终于在一又友的调处下对房产的分割达成一致,并很快找到买主,半个月内即要搬出去。

想起昔时的一切,Brooke相配伤感,为了给两东说念主的关系最后一次挽回的契机,她对Gary说我方很早就订了两张演唱会的票,问Gary有莫得时间。Gary说我方会赶昔时。抑制却是Brooke在吵杂的演唱会里独自一东说念主待了整晚,周围都是快乐的东说念主群, Brooke伤心欲绝。回到家,仍在电视前边的Gary听到她隐隐的哭声,这一次,他终于能全心去听Brooke心里的话,不外为时已晚。

Gary: Brooke. You broke up with me. Then you have guys coming over here for dates, and all of a sudden you ask me to go to some concert. I mean, I just figured that, you know.

Brooke: Gary. I just ... I don't know how we got here, our entire relationship. I've gone above and beyond for you, for us. And I mean, I've cooked. I've picked your shit up off the floor. I've laid your clothes out for you like you were a four-year-old. I support you. I supported you, your work. If we ever had dinner or anything, I make the plans. I take care of everything and I just don't feel like you appreciate any of it. I don't feel you appreciate me. And all I want is to ... is for you to just show me that you care.

Gary: Why didn't you just say that to me?

Brooke: Gary, I've tried. I've tried.

Gary: Yeah, but never like that. You might've said some things that you meant to imply that, but I'm not a mind reader.

Brooke: I doubt it would matter. You are who you are. Just leave me alone, okay? Right now. Just shut my door.

你是一件艺术品

有许多影评把这场分手风云归结为女东说念主的理性和男东说念主的理性之间的各异,应该各打50大板了事。本质上,导演在影片中带有彰着的倾向性,在两东说念主争吵的字里行间,咱们都能感到Brooke为挽回这段步地所作念出的悉力以及Gary的无所谓。也许导演想施展的并不是女性和男性间不可长入的性格各异,而是女性应该积极争取幸福的爱情生活,而不是在爱情中不竭谦让。底下是影片中几段经典的对话:

场景1:影片一运行,Brooke在画廊里匡助一位优雅的男性客户挑选艺术品,在一座名家的雕饰作品前,两东说念主对挑选艺术品有一段对话,颇有深意:

Customer: You know, an art teacher of mine once said, “Never buy a piece of art that you don't have to have.” You know, don't worry about who the artist is or how much it's worth. I mean, you have to live with it every day. You have to walk by it every day. You know, you have to really love it. You have to really appreciate it.

Brooke: It's kind of like picking a mate.

这个起头就出现的片段似乎奠定了总共影片的基调,影片其后,也正是这位帅哥客户买走了Brooke亲手制作的、被Gary奚落是“footy art”的室内讳饰品。这一段情节很具标识意旨:非论是女性照旧男性,咱们都应该把我方像艺术品一样对待,寻找真实能抚玩我方的东说念主。而咱们在寻找恋爱对象时也应该像寻找一件适应我方的艺术品那样,要紧的不是作品是否出自名家之手,也不是艺术品的价值,而是那是一件真实属于你、真实能让你天天面对的艺术品。

场景2:在Brooke向一又友寻求匡助时,她的好友有一段话说得很精彩:“Men are like children. They're gonna test boundaries to see what they can get away with.”纵不雅Gary的言行,他如实很相宜这个描写。什么叫test boundaries?拿分手缘故的例子来说,当Gary说等来日再刷碗时,他并非简直想来日才刷碗,因为他知说念Brooke会忍耐不了先把碗刷了,时间长了,总共的家务天然就归Brooke了。而总共吵架经由即是Gary不竭test boundaries的经由。导演也通过Brooke一又友之口对女性的对应步履提倡了建议:“One, this type of behavior is not unnoticed. Two, it's not acceptable. And three, you're definitely not gonna tolerate it.”

场景3:当Brooke在房间呜咽时,烦闷的Gary照旧不解白总共这一切发生的原因。他又来到酒吧,再次找到我方的好友Johnny倾吐。而Johnny的一段话让他恍然大悟,他终于得知问题的所在——那即是他我方,这让他蹙悚不已。

Gary: I mean, what does she expect, for me to want to go with the girl who dumped me?

Johnny: I don't know. She probably just wanted you, you know, to show her the respect of not standing her up or some shit, who knows? ... You know what? It's her fault she got hurt. You shouldn't even feel bad about it. She should have expected it from you. You're a fun guy, okay? Everybody likes you. You're the quickest guy I know. Anytime we go out, I have a blast. All right? But, you know, everybody who knows you knows you're gonna do what you want to do. And if it's not what the other person wants to do, well, that's their problem.

Gary: That's bullshit to say about me.

Johnny: When have we ever done something you didn't want to do? We always do what you want to do and she always did what you want to do. It's who you are. Everybody thinks that you're their friend, okay? But the fact of the matter is that there's not one person that I know that you trust enough to let close enough that they could hurt you. And her big problem is that you really liked her. I mean, she is the one girl you really liked. And no matter what she did and how hard she tried, you were never gonna let your guard down. That poor girl never stood a chance.

Johnny的这段充满反语、讥刺的话语应该说是全片的精华,也点出了这场分手风云的本质原因,问题并不在于男女念念维方式的各异,而在于Gary以自我为中心的性格。就像Johnny说的那样,非论对一又友照旧爱东说念主,Gary永远只作念我方想作念的事情,从不为对方作念出殉国,永远都是对方顺着他的风趣。这样的东说念主老是将我方处于强势的地位,也从不让我方get hurt。影片中Brooke所作念的也许只是想看到Gary为她忌妒、内心受伤。其实许多时候,相爱的两个东说念主和会过伤害对方来证明对方仍然爱着我方,他们从对方的肉痛中感受到对方的爱(许多东说念主在爱情逝去的时候作念出伤害我方的步履,也许亦然因为那时候伤害我方是伤害对方的独一期间)。但Gary就像Johnny说的那样永远以我方为中心,从来不let his guard down,当Brooke示意分手时,他最先预想的是房产的分割。是以Brooke根蒂伤害不到他,天然也感受不到他的爱,正如Johnny所说,她只是“stand no chance against him”。

最后,导演并莫得安排一个重温旧梦、皆大雀跃的好莱坞结局。而服气咱们看到这个分手的结局时,也并不会感到可惜,以致会为Brooke欢笑。影片收尾,罢了步地的Brooke似乎一切都变得更加一帆风顺,想去欧洲旅行的她得回了雇主的全力守旧。在某个节日的芝加哥街头,Brooke和Gary在街头偶遇,Brooke一扫影片起头的疲态,显得容光粗莽、信心百倍,而失去了Brooke的Gary在“躬行”为节日采购,面对Brooke时仍旧依依不舍。也许这即是导演想传递给咱们的信息:勇敢地离开那些自利下利、不懂得真实抚玩你的东说念主,也许你会发现一派更好意思好的寰宇。
