美丽心灵的永恒阳光

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)

导演：米歇尔·冈瑞(Michel Gondry)

The story of a breakup gone wrong, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind could easily have gone wrong itself. But this wasn't your average whimsical tale of romantic yearning.

这是一个分手分出一堆问题的故事，而电影本身也极有可能出问题。但它绝不是一部普通的浪漫幻想爱情片。

Jim Carrey boldly pushed against type to portray a perennially sad man literally trapped by his grievances and eager to let them unravel.

影片主演金•凯瑞这次跳脱了他一贯无厘头喜剧的风格，饰演了一个长期陷入忧郁和茫然，并努力想逃离这一切的男人。

But the movie belongs just as much to Kate Winslet, whose character's decision to erase her own memories of the ex-couple's time together sets the drama in motion.

这部电影同样属于女主凯特•温丝莱特，她想把与前男友的记忆从脑海中彻底抹去的决定，推动着剧情戏剧性地发展。

生命之树

The Tree of Life (2011)

导演：泰伦斯·马力克(Terrence Malick)

Like a great poem, The Tree of Life opens itself to a thousand interpretations, as director Terrence Malick takes a spiritual and lyrical journey through time, from a dusty 1950s childhood in Texas back to the beginnings of the cosmos itself.

这是一部充满诗意的电影。从1950年代的少年时光到宇宙的起源，导演泰伦斯·马力克带领观众的心灵在时空中优雅地穿梭跳跃。

This strange new pillar in the cathedral of US cinema stars Brad Pitt as an authoritarian father and Jessica Chastain as a tender and deeply religious mother of three sons.

这部电影怪诞却无疑是挺立在美国电影殿堂中的新支柱。布拉德·皮特出演了一位父权至上，拥有三个孩子的父亲，杰西卡·查斯坦饰演了温柔但一丝不苟遵循宗教信条的母亲。

Emmanuel Lubezki’s cinematography is sun-dappled, or oozes images of boiling lava, dinosaurs and exploding planets, all to a soundtrack of Preisner’s Requiem — in this case a requiem to a dead son. The joys and aching losses of parenting become transcendent, even Biblical, in Malick’s hands.

在艾曼努尔·卢贝兹基镜头下的电影语言被日光照耀的斑驳陆离，充斥着滚滚岩浆、恐龙和爆炸的星体，与泽贝纽·普瑞斯纳的安魂曲完美结合，那是为死去的孩子演奏的安魂曲。在马力克的剧本中，这对父母亲的愉悦与悲伤被无限放大，甚至有些《圣经》的风格。

一 一

Yi Yi: A One and a Two (2000)

导演：杨德昌

Audiences in 2000 were astonished by how fluently Edward Yang’s Yi Yi portrays contemporary life through the intermingling stories of members of a Taipei family separated by the dilemmas specific to their stations in life.

2000年的观众都为《一一》所震撼——杨德昌如何能将一个台北家庭中各个成员的不同故事混叠在一起叙述，却极其自然流畅地刻画出了当代生活。故事里，一家人因陷入不同生命阶段的特殊困境而互相隔绝。

Yi Yi is a reverently meticulous film, with its painstakingly detailed moods, and rituals that are seemingly endemic to the characters and their customs. Yet, it is also grandly universal. Its quiet reflections on life, love, family and death are all gracefully affecting, no matter the gap in generation and culture.

《一一》是一部用心至极的精致电影，颇费心思地细腻抒情，当中涉及的仪式场景带有地方性特色，贴合人物生活环境的习俗。但同时，这部电影却又具有普遍性意义。不论观者与电影中的人事隔着怎样的年代与文化差异，它那极安静的、对于生命、家庭与死亡的映射都是那样美而有感染力。

一次别离

A Separation (2011)

导演：阿斯哈·法哈蒂(Asghar Farhadi)

f there is a film that makes you take a deep look at yourself in the mirror again and again, this is it. Asghar Farhadi’s searing relationship drama does not make a judgement about its characters. Rather, it pitches the situations so realistically that the viewer ends up sympathising with both protagonists even though they are pitted against each other.

如果说有哪部电影能让你在看完后对着镜子陷入深深思考，那毫无疑问就是它了。阿斯哈·法哈蒂强烈的戏剧冲突没有对任何角色进行完全的褒贬。他将电影中的场景刻画得自然真实，到头来还让观众为了相互折磨的主人公们胸口发闷。

老无所依

No Country for Old Men (2007)

导演：伊桑·科恩 / 乔尔·科恩(Joel and Ethan Coen)

Readers of Cormac McCarthy’s No Country for Old Men put down the novel possessing a distinct image of its villain. The Anton Chigurh on the page became vividly seared into our consciousness. That image, though, is not Javier Bardem in the Coen Brothers’ Oscar-winner for best picture.

读过科马克·麦卡锡的小说《老无所依》的人都会对书中那个反派有一个鲜明印象。书中的冷血杀手安东·齐格已经深深烙进我们的意识中，那并不是科恩兄弟这部奥斯卡获奖影片主演哈维尔·巴登的形象。

Yet Bardem’s film characterisation is so powerful, so splendidly overwhelming in his random application of violence, that he manages to extinguish whatever preceded it in the mind of the audience.

然而，巴登的演绎太有力度，他用随意不经心的暴力表达华丽丽地将我们制服，把观众脑海中先前的印象一抹而光。

Set in West Texas in 1980, No Country for Old Men’s sense of time and place are unparalleled. There’s a hypnotic quality to the movie’s pace, watching characters you can’t help but like make a series of catastrophic decisions that bring each into Chigurh’s universe, a world soaked in blood with a predetermined outcome.

《老无所依》背景是1980年的德州西部。整部电影的节奏带着催眠般的效力，你看着那些你无法不爱的角色做出一系列灾难性的决定，把自己送进杀手齐格的世界，而那是一个用血腥浸染的世界，一切结果都已预知。
