: '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~
