男女單打戰 Battle of the Sexes (2017)

電影名稱：男女單打戰 Battle of the Sexes
產地：英國 GBR 美國 USA
上映日期：2 November 2017
觀看日期：16 October 2017
片長：121 Minutes
導演：Jonathan Dayton, Valerie Faris
演員：Steve Carell, Sarah Silverman

觀後感：
筆者本身很喜歡看指定的運動比賽，網球是其中一種不錯的節目。在台灣交換期間筆者有機會去學網球這項運動，才發覺網球運動員在訓練時的辛勞，以及他們的天賦是十分重要的；自此筆者也只用觀眾的身份參與網球比賽，享受比賽帶來的刺激。電影將歷史上經典的網球對戰搬上大銀幕，主旨雖然圍繞性別平等的議題，不過情節也包括對酷兒的關注。享負盛名的女網球手Billie Jean King(Emma Stone飾)和經理人Gladys Heldman(Sarah Silverman飾)反對網球協會在比賽中削減女子運動員的獎金，談判失敗後她們在獲得贊助的情況下聯同其他女子運動員自組巡迴賽，得到空前的成功。Billie Jean的丈夫Larry(Austin Stowell飾)一直支持自己的妻子，即使他發現Billie Jean秘密地和髮型師Marilyn Barnett(Andrea Riseborough飾)發展同性婚外情，他也盡力挽回這段寶貴的婚姻。另邊廂Robert Larimore “Bobby” Riggs(Steve Carell飾)沉迷賭博導致家庭破碎，他決定挑戰頂尖的女子網球運動員以製造話題及贏取獎金，Billie Jean最後接受Bobby的挑戰，從二人備戰的態度及焦點，已經知道勝方是Billie Jean；Bobby的計劃徹底失敗，事件被記載成一齣鬧劇，Billie Jean和Larry和平分手，她為了尋找生命中所愛繼續奮鬥。

Steve Carell是一名美國男演員，搞笑是他與生俱來的能力，雖然他在讀書時期並沒有認真地考慮過事業的發展，現在他卻是一位成功的演員；為了專心發展電影事業，他減少在電視劇的演出，換來的就是觀眾的一致肯定，代表作有Curly Sue、The 40-Year-Old Virgin及The Big Short。他近年的演出證明了自己是一個不折不扣的實力派，除了一直擅長的喜劇類型外，他在劇情片中也有很精彩的表現；這一次他回歸了誇張的喜感演繹，放大了角色在行為上的滑稽，他仿如一個在觀眾面前搔首弄姿的小丑，這種醜化的角色對他來說是易如反掌的事情，筆者相信觀眾不會對這個角色過份反感，反而欣賞Steve Carell依然寶刀未老。他的下一部推介是Beautiful Boy，他飾演一名毒癮青年的父親，故事會以他作為主要視角，筆者對他的演出有期待感。Sarah Silverman是一位美國女喜劇演員，她剛出道時參與Saturday Night Live一年後不獲續約，原因是她所寫的故事並沒有被選中至錄影階段；她以此段經歷為鑑，花了很多心機在事業的發展上，獨特的風格不屬於主流觀眾的喜好，代表作有Who's the Caboose?、Sarah Silverman: Jesus Is Magic及I Smile Back。她在劇情片的演出不比喜劇片遜色，只是她沒有擺脫喜劇演員的形象；她在電影中的表現可圈可點，反正她沒有主角的負擔，不過筆者私心地想推介這位才華洋溢的藝人給大家認識。她的下一部推介是Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2，這是動畫片的續集，筆者應該不會看英語版本的，不過她的聲演應該為電影增加不少娛樂性。

電影改編自70年代的知名網球對戰，故事顯然強調女性應和男性一樣有同等的待遇，情況有如演藝圈因性別之差而出現同工不同酬的情況；作品也用了不少情節探索女主角的性別認同問題，剛強的她是一名酷兒，在封閉的年代她在別人的期望及真實的自我之間游走，在這一役後她願意拋開世俗的包袱，是當代酷兒文化的佼佼者。兩位主角的表現令人滿意，飾演髮型師的Andrea Riseborough也有相當亮眼的演出，特別值得一提的還有飾演女主角前夫的Austin Stowell，沒有名氣的他令觀眾留下不少印象，希望他日後有不錯的發展。作品盡量回復當時的背景，在場地、服裝及造型等都配合故事的設計；小眾的一群看過作品後更有感覺，對女主角所經歷的事情容易產生熟悉的味道。運動電影在市場上有不少的需求，但除了運動員的勵志故事外，觀眾也可以有一些較另類的體驗；運動是我們生活中不可或缺的部分，它有助我們清理思緒及減輕壓力，騰出空間讓我們認識真實的自己，為自己而生活下去。

星聲夢裡人 La La Land (2016)

電影名稱：星聲夢裡人 La La Land
產地：美國 USA
上映日期：26 January 2017
觀看日期：24 December 2016
片長：128 Minutes
導演：Damien Chazelle
演員：Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone

觀後感：
眾所周知夢想的實現一定要付出代價，每個人要付出的代價大不相同，有些人會放棄高薪厚職，有些人會放棄自己的財產，有些人會放棄人際關係，無論如何我們會先衡量實際情況才願意付出代價。筆者相信每一樣事物對我們來說都有一個價值，只要其價值不比夢想的價值高，我們都會作出我們所謂的付出，有時候到了夢想實現時有可能賺回所付出的。電影將愛情及夢想讓人去選擇，兩者被放棄後都很難再有機會再遇到，筆者認為不同性格的人在選擇上會出現很大的分歧。在人才出眾的洛杉磯，沒有名氣的女演員Mia Dolan(Emma Stone飾)和爵士鋼琴家Sebastian Wilder(Ryan Gosling飾)在一次不愉快的偶遇開始了他們的故事。Mia每天在城市內工作及參加海選，希望得到機會實現成為演員的夢想，她的宿友有時候會帶她一起參加派對以擴闊社交圈子，幸運的話有可能遇上提攜自己的伯樂。Sebastian是一個很有理想的音樂人，他不甘於在城市內的餐廳演奏指定的節慶歌曲，路過的Mia聽到他的創作後主動結識被他拒絕。他們幾個月後在派對上重遇，晚上二人在山上載歌載舞產生合拍的火花。二人開始頻密的見面，彼此向對方說明各自的夢想，幾次約會後便開始情侶關係。Mia在Sebastian的鼓勵下自編自演一場舞台的獨腳戲，Sebastian則定期在爵士酒吧演出，二人同居後Sebastian答應朋友的邀請參加流行樂隊的表演，Mia得知後質問他為何不堅持自己一直以來的夢想，Sebastian卻認為Mia不想他得到事業上的成功；Mia演出的舞台劇得到一面倒的負評，Sebastian因有工作在身而缺席，二人因而分開，Mia更搬回老家避世。Sebastian應邀勸服Mia參與新一次的海選，事後他對她的表現及夢想有信心，並坦言二人都會繼續深愛著對方，不過對將來存在不確定性。五年後，Mia成為一名已組織家庭的著名演員，她再次遇上Sebastian，已成為爵士酒吧老闆的他在場內演奏一曲，讓彼此幻想一下他們選擇了在一起的生活，二人隨著曲終回到現實世界，繼續過著現在的生活。

Ryan Gosling是一名加拿大男演員，他兒時沒有愉快的學校生活，表演是唯一令他感到自信的事情，他為了演員的事業而放棄學業，由童星時期逐漸積經驗並發展音樂事業，他在獨立電影中有過不錯的表現，近幾年成為影壇的當紅男星，代表作有Frankenstein and Me、The Notebook及Half Nelson。他在電影中飾演一名才華洋溢的鋼琴家，他為了這個角色需要學會這種技巧及各式各樣的舞步；他本身很符合角色的設定，他演繹出一種飽歷滄桑的味道，而這種味道也是他賦予角色的魅力；筆者覺得他這一次花了很心機去演好角色，儘管最終他的型格仍是角色最吸引的地方，觀眾可以看到他也有一些內心戲的表現，屬於他近年較出色的演出。他的下一部推介是First Man，電影是Damien Chazelle的作品，他將飾演第一位登陸月球的太空人Neil Armstrong，統計上傳記片的主角們很容易得到演技的讚賞，他在這部作品又能否貫徹這個慣例呢？筆者對他是有不少的信心的。Emma Stone是一名美國女演員，她起初專注發展劇場演員的事業，直至十多歲時成功說服父母遷往洛杉磯，便開始全力進攻演藝圈，她像Mia一樣沉寂過一段長時間，不過她好好地把握演出機會，讓她的名氣及演技得到大幅度的提升，代表作有Superbad、Easy A及Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)。她有一種很吸引人的演戲風格，在她的正式舞台演出時被選中飾演這個和她很相似的角色；她不是第一次和Ryan Gosling合作，觀眾看起來就會覺得他們倆有銀幕上的默契及火花，她的演出成為電影的焦點，全因電影以她為主要視角去說故事，因此她有很多發揮情感戲份的安排；筆者認為她可能在演出時連繫上她的自身經驗，所以整個表現出乎意料地自然及感人，特別是她在最重要的選角面試時唱歌的情節及重遇Sebastian的感情表達，她證明了自己是一位有實力的年輕演員。她的下一部推介是Cruella，她將飾演動畫片101 Dalmatians的惡魔女人Cruella de Vil，筆者對她在電影的演出非常期待，到底她在飾演壞人時會有怎樣的表現，相信她仍會保持著她的那份獨特的個人魅力。

電影由Damien Chazelle自導自編，他受到眾多經典音樂劇電影的影響，製作一部設定在現代講及追求夢想的音樂劇電影，他要求演員們全情投入電影旳拍攝，挑戰一些從影以來未有嘗試過的事物，整齣電影就是近乎完美的視覺盛宴。兩位主角的戲份在電影中佔太多數，其他演員則以客串形式支援電影的情節發展，歌手John Legend的吉他手角色對觀眾而言也有一點點驚喜。電影在各方面的技術上有卓越的表現，無論基本的剪接攝影還是視效音效美術等，全部元素在電影中起了相輔相成的作用，筆者覺得去年的Academy Awards的認同有點不太足夠；筆者特別喜歡音樂劇電影，而這部作品的歌曲都很有意思，很多人都非常喜歡"City of Stars"，而筆者最喜愛的就是"Another Day of Sun"及"Audition (The Fools Who Dream)"，因為這兩首歌所講的都是關於夢想的追求。愛情與夢想兩者都是脫離現實的考量，而且對我們的生命而言也是很有價值的，如果筆者要選的話應該會依靠時間幫忙作出選擇，因為筆者不想放棄任何一樣，無奈兩者真的有衝突的時候，筆者應該會選擇前者。不知道你們又會怎樣選呢？

飛鳥俠 Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) (2014)

電影名稱：飛鳥俠 Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)
產地：美國 USA
上映日期：22 January 2015
觀看日期：4 February 2015
片長：119 Minutes
導演：Alejandro G. Iñárritu
演出：Michael Keaton、Edward Norton、Emma Stone

影評：
演藝圈一向都是長江後浪推前浪，雖然很多人會說現在圈內出現青黃不接的時期，但始終潮流是靠年輕一代去推動，所以很少從事演藝圈工作的人能夠長期地保持人氣，幸運的話到了一定年紀會被稱為前輩。以本地為例，王祖藍、歐陽靖及張繼聰這些都曾經紅極一時，但現在他們的人氣也有所回落；但在歐美地區，影星們要到了三四十歲左右才會有事業上的起色。電影的故事講述一個過氣影星重整旗鼓的經歷：Riggan Thomson(Michael Keaton飾)是曾經演出過超級英雄「飛鳥俠」，自此他便有另一把來自內心的聲音，促使他自編自導自演一齣舞台劇。他的好友Jake(Zach Galifianakis飾)擔任製作人，女友Laura(Andrea Riseborough飾)及新人Lesley(Naomi Watts飾)負責演出，女兒Sam(Emma Stone飾)則為他的助理，後來他找來經驗演員Mike(Edward Norton飾)加入。舞台劇的初次試演不太成功，Mike打亂Riggan的一切計劃，而他得到的評價卻非常正面，Sam狠下心腸向Riggan講出其父親自以為是並脫離現實，Riggan更將Mike視為假想敵。Riggan在一次休息時意外地鎖上側門，他在只穿著內褲的情況下，走過時代廣場重返劇院，過程被上載互聯網視頻，重新讓全世界認識他。在一位影評人承諾會透過文字摧毀他的舞台劇後，他開始出現幻覺，幻想自己成為飛鳥俠在空中自由地展翅翱翔。在舞台劇演出前，Riggan和Sam及前妻Sylvia(Amy Ryan飾)重修舊好，他在結束時用真槍演出自殺的一幕，得到全場人士站立鼓掌。他自殺失敗後，最終學會放開多年纏繞他的心結，重新出發。

Michael Keaton是一名資深美國演員，其演出一直以來都沒有很引人注目，因此名氣也不算是太高，他的代表作有Night Shift、Beetlejuice及Batman系列。他在電影的演出十分受歡迎，角色的設定與他本身的背景相似，效果讓觀眾很有感覺，遺憾他並未能得到最佳男主角的榮譽；我覺得他對角色的理解很符合觀眾的預期，並配合演技塑造角色的形象，方法較為獨特。他的下一部推介是The Founder，故事關於創辦麥當奴的事跡，電影應該與Saving Mr. Banks類似，他的演出是電影成敗的關鍵。Edward Norton是一名美國演員，他主要參演製作規模較小的獨立電影，而且不時參與幕後製作，代表作有Primal Fear、American History X及Moonrise Kingdom。他的演出是電影中最為突破的，再一次證明自己的演技，因而得到一致讚賞。他的下一部推介是Collateral Beauty，電影被看好有力競爭來年的頒獎禮，他的演出預計會不錯。Emma Stone是一位很年輕的美國演員，她的事業正在蓬勃發展中，至今她的年資亦不夠十年，代表作有Easy A、The Help及The Amazing Spider-Man系列。她的演出是歷來最好的，因為她在毫無包袱的情況下發揮角色，很多觀眾都認同她的演技更上一層樓。她的下一部推介是La La Land，電影是愛情類電影，而且男主角是Ryan Gosling，她的演出令人期待。

電影藉著演員東山再起的故事，嘗試研究不同的人生課題，有家庭關係、人生價值及個人認同等，讓觀眾欣賞後會有不少反思。電影的選角也很精彩，主要演員的演出配合得相當出色，令整齣電影變得更加有水準。電影使用的效果也非常特別，一鏡到底的拍攝技術及精心設計的配樂更成為電影的標誌，提升電影的藝術感。我覺得有時候做人生決定是要靠直覺的，太過理性可能會令自己後悔的，畢竟我也試過不少這種經驗。

情迷月色下 Magic in the Moonlight (2014)

電影名稱：情迷月色下 Magic in the Moonlight
產地：美國 USA
上映日期：18 September 2014
觀看日期：25 September 2014
片長：97 Minutes
導演：Woody Allen
演出：Colin Firth, Emma Stone

影評：
魔術師給人的印象一般都是型格及很有才華的，在外地的選秀節目中魔術師很多時候都會很受觀眾歡迎，因為這類表演帶出一種精彩且神秘的感覺，各位喜歡表演的俊男美女可考慮學習魔術，在聚會及派對上都可以帶動氣氛。既然魔術師擅長掩眼法，他們的另一半可能會擔心在相處時對方會很容易欺騙自己，電影中兩位主角的愛情就是一次很好的示範。一名世界著名的幻術師Stanley(Colin Firth飾)易名在德國柏林表演魔術，他的一位好友Howard(Simon McBurney飾)邀請他拜訪一個富有的美國家庭，揭穿自稱靈媒的女子Sophie(Emma Stone飾)。這位Sophie的厲害之處是毫無破綻地正確預測未來及猜出其他人心裡的想法，而且吸引著這個家庭的公子。Stanley不能相信Sophie的所作所為，認為她是一個騙子，於是製造一些機會和她單獨相處，並帶她見自己的阿姨。Sophie憑著阿姨的物件講出阿姨的過去，Stanley終被Sophie說服而認同她的能力，並召開記者會向外宣佈這個驚世發現。Stanley的阿姨在記者會舉行期間遇上交通意外，Stanley祈禱希望有奇蹟出現，後來想清楚世界上只有邏輯及理性，宗教、能力及實體上不存在的事物都是不值得相信，所以他決定要再一次揭穿Sophie的真面目。經過他一連串的調查，他最後發現原來全部都是Howard和Sophie所演的戲，他選擇了原諒後黯然離開，及後知道自己已不知不覺地愛上Sophie，他倆最後有情人終成眷屬。

Colin Firth這位英國演員一直都非常努力，在不同類型的電影中參演，近幾年的角色都很有突破性，包括A Single Man、讓他成為Academy Award影帝的The King's Speech及Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy。演技優秀的他貫徹作風，將這個沒有特色的角色發揮得不錯，維持他個人作為演員的魅力。他的下一部推介是Genius，這是一部有關寫作的電影，他在文藝片的演出應該有所保證。Emma Stone年輕時勸服父母讓她到荷里活追尋星夢，她的星途在開始時並不是很順利，在電視圈的發展一直浮浮沉沉，直至到她主力在電影圈發展時才令人注目，她的代表作有Superbad、Easy A及The Amazing Spider-Man系列。她在電影的演出有一定的水準，但未至於令人眼前一亮，她在電影事業上一直都欠缺具代表性的角色，Easy A算是她至此最好的演出。她的下一部推介是La La Land，這是她和Ryan Gosling合演的愛情喜劇，相信能吸引不少觀眾。

電影的設定未至於令人完全猜測到劇情發展，但其中的元素不是現代觀眾感興趣的題材，我也是為了兩位演員才入場觀看這部電影。除了兩位主角外，其他演員的演出有一定的作用，但驚喜始終欠奉。電影的起承轉合十分清晰，技術效果上並沒有令人期待的Woody Allen味道，所以大大降低電影整體的吸引力。其實自己的另一半是否真誠並不只與他/她是否一名魔術師有關，即使一個人看起來如何完美，在相處時的確可以變成另一個人的模樣，最重要的是我們不要做一個令人討厭的「愛情魔術師」。。
