※ 引述《jcyl (窮...)》之銘言: : 以下是影評全文 : http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,103361,00.html : 'Big Fish': The Movie to Beat in 2003 : Tuesday, November 18, 2003 : By Roger Friedman : Oscar Track for Jessica Lange's New Film : Tim Burton's "Big Fish" is the best movie I've seen in all of 2003. : If "Cold Mountain" and "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" don't : live up to expectations, I'm willing to say now that "Big Fish" is headed : for the Best Picture award. It will most definitely be nominated in that : category and many others. : What a pleasure to finally see a film that encompasses all the attributes : of a Best Picture. I was starting to fret that the group of candidates : already screened — including "Mystic River," "Master and Commander," : "Seabiscuit," "Lost in Translation," "Mona Lisa Smile," "House of Sand : and Fog," "The Missing," "The Human Stain" — were going to be fighting : for awards they didn't quite deserve. : Not to say there's anything seriously wrong with any of them. They are all : well-made, entertaining films. But each of them is seriously flawed and not : quite "there." For mid-November, this isn't good news. : But then yesterday all that changed. I attended an afternoon screening of : "Big Fish," a film based on a short novel by Daniel Wallace currently : ranked at number 17,556 on amazon.com The movie had good buzz but had not : been over-hyped. I should have guessed that this would be a case similar : to "American Beauty" since the same team — Bruce Cohen and Dan Jinks — : produced it. 恩哼,原來 Big Fish 的是 American Beauty 的製作人製作的啊..... : "Big Fish" comes from that sensibility of high drama, sharply drawn : characters, impeccable acting and — very importantly — a self contained : logic. "Big Fish" actually reminded me more of "The Cider House Rules" in : a way than "American Beauty." It's a whole piece of art, developed from a : single vision, and conveyed with that coherence. I loved it. So will you. The Cider House Rules!!! 近幾年台灣人所錯過的最大遺珠之一 不過台灣有出版小說「心塵往事」 1999年奧斯卡最佳改編劇本&最佳男配角的得主 相當美麗但哀傷的電影 本來以為男主角 Tobey Maguire 紅了之後台灣可以看到的............>_< (不過,我以為 Big Fish 是喜劇片不是嗎?!) : Albert Finney — a cinch for Best Supporting Actor, although it would be : great to see Sony/Columbia put him in for lead — plays a dying, eccentric : patriarch named Edward Bloom. Jessica Lange is his loving and understanding : wife, but Billy Crudup — also doing some of his best work ever — is his : doubting, critical son, Will. : What Crudup is critical of is Finney's penchant for fantasy and exaggeration. : He is not much for the father's lyrical sense of embroidery. And Finney, : in this movie, is a storyteller with no shame. His anecdotes, by now family : lore, weave themselves around carnivals, circuses, bank robberies, witches, : and giants. Will is so exasperated by Edward that when the movie begins he : hasn't spoken to him in three years. : Burton has made a lot of movies. Some of them were good ("Batman"), some : of them were great ("Beetlejuice"), some were exercises in excess ("Sleepy : Hollow"). Visually, he's always been arresting ("Edward Scissorhands"). But : nothing he's done before really indicated that he could make "Big Fish." : : He cuts back and forth between Edward Bloom's present and his past, using : Ewan McGregor and Alison Lohman to play the younger versions of Finney and : Lange. All of the campy stuff that McGregor worked on in "Moulin Rouge!" : and "Down With Love" finally comes to fruition here; it's as if we had to : endure those performances to enjoy this one. He's extraordinary at last. -______________________________________________-||||||||| 會不會太狠了一點 Down with Love我就認哉了 我可是很愛他在Moulin Rouge的表演ㄟ.......T_T 畢竟這麼漫畫的電影這麼漫畫的角色 卻能夠演得這麼真實而動人也不簡單啊 @_@ 不過看在這基本上是稱讚的份上..... 好樣的....給我入圍個奧斯卡來著吧...... : It's Burton's movie in the long-run, and he really surprises even the most : jaded viewer with "Big Fish." There are echoes of "Forrest Gump" certainly, : and "The Wizard of Oz." But they are just echoes. "Big Fish" also thrives : in the same area, coincidentally, as Denys Arcand's marvelous "Barbarian : Invasions," with its father-son conflict. 恩哼,預告片的感覺真的有像阿甘&綠野仙蹤 :) : But these are just references within the shadows. "Big Fish" is its own c : reation. It's a four-hanky affair, so bring lots of Kleenex. My advice to : Sony is hold the house lights off well into the end credits so the wiping : of tears can go in private. There was sobbing at yesterday's screening. I : haven't seen tears like that since "Ordinary People." : I've mentioned the main cast, but I should tell you that there are also : very fine supporting turns by Steve Buscemi, Robert Guilliaume, Helena : Bonham Carter and, most importantly, Danny DeVito, who gets the role of : his life and runs with it. The only negative there is that you get to : see more of him than you ever wanted to, but after all, we're seasoned : pros, so we can take it. 這一票配角個個都是狠角色啊! : "Big Fish" probably knocks "Seabiscuit," "House of Sand and Fog," and : "21 Grams" out of the big awards races simply because it is the premier : drama of the season. It also may do damage to "Mystic River," as "Big Fish" : gets the lump-in-the-throat payoff that the Clint Eastwood movie misses by : going on long past the moment when someone should have yelled "Cut!" 恩,剛剛想了想 突然覺得感覺上有點像愛得華剪刀手.... 幽默有趣又美麗哀傷.... cool...... 阿,最後補上一張劇照~ http://www.eccentricity-online.com/ewangallery/bf_et1.jpg
