卡珊德拉之梦

这部电影在中国算禁片了吧？

竟然说中国比那个还那个。

俩兄弟的母亲在前面一直在说舅舅有多好，好像有一腿一样。

但后来却在丈夫迷茫的时候选择出来帮他。

Ian虽然看起来有眼光，有梦想，有上进心，但其实也想走捷径，也不善良。

Terry虽然好赌，但他其实很勤奋，有责任心，想为自己的妻子做点什么，但苦于能力不行，只能去赌。

落得要去杀人。

拍戲「多快好省」的Woody Allen近期導演尤其得心應手，轉戰倫敦亦一樣順利，就算沒有樂不思蜀的情況，他個人在現階段也可能「爽」之極。

今回這位多產導演拍《Cassandra Dream》（Cassandra在希臘神話裡，是連累男人的女人），講沉迷賭博和女色會逐漸泥足深陷，繼而會鑄成大錯。

處理如此的原始人性原型問題，有點像在弄道德劇。

一向俏皮的Woody Allen會這樣做嗎？

Woody Allen今回處理耳熟能詳的原型問題故事，固守簡單直接劇情，並不攪甚麼花樣，甘心把老土情節很輕盈的平鋪直述講一次。

那麼，這部電影趣味性在那裡呢？

而導演又有甚麼意圖呢？

我一時間並不想通。

Woody Allen畢竟很自覺，他拍的電影絕不婆婆媽媽、不講大道理、不賣弄壞品味、不製造廉價戲劇效果。

他這部電影乾乾淨淨，劇情推進爽快，只用心把兩位主角一步一步走向深淵的過程展露出來。

他要做電影哲學家、探討「罪惡」這個原型問題嗎？

依Woody Allen的性格，他似乎不會走這條路。

那麼他在2007年傳達原始人性原型問題的故事，又所謂何事？

我惟一可找到的解釋，是他為一部Ingmar Bergman式電影來個淺白版本的。

瑞典黑白電影無疑會令部份觀眾看得很辛苦，所以在2007年把原始人性原型問題故事，拍個趣味性較豐富的版本，其實也是值得的。

Woody Allen今回平鋪直述講一個古舊故事，反而更表現出他導演的功力和風格：此部電影發展快、劇情緊湊、演員表演自然，而對白、情節和畫面設計（例如哥哥管理餐廳、迷上女演員；弟弟是汽車技師；兩兄弟買了郵艇來玩等等），處處蘊藏趣味，確實很易令觀眾吸收。

這部電影在主題性、藝術性、娛樂性各個層面都有點份量，但又不那麼吃重，總體而言，它又並不是甚麼重要作品。

Woody Allen拍戲四十多年，累積很多追隨者，那麼他這部順手拈來的遊戲之作，可視為以餉他的忠實影迷的一件小品好了。

事實上，這部電影充份發揮倫敦街道特色（駕車到郊外可邂逅艷女郎，而在高尚住宅區當街殺人也可以逃走），此外，在倫敦講這個老舊故事，加上Philip Glass的配樂，確可表現古典味出來，相信他的影迷會滿意。

2009-04-06 　　邦尼与克莱德 　　 “他们年轻，他们恋爱，他们杀人”就是这部影片的主题 　　有时候人犯错并不是因为人有多坏，年轻人有血性，人本性又容易受到利益的诱惑。

赌博，女人，美好的生活…… 　　有些一辈子过的平平稳稳，手里攥着大把钞票，在人间呼风唤雨，逍遥自在，他们可能真正的坏，但又没人能把他们怎么样。

　　生活并不公平，诱惑处处存在，犯错在所难免，放平常心看待吧。

　　 16

手头上正看黄仁宇先生的《关系千万重》，顺便拿来做标题。

为了还债，追姑娘，兄弟俩实施了一场谋杀，杀人进行得很顺利，尽管是第一次，倒也没费多少力气。

只不过，原罪做祟，致使弟弟放不下杀人的包袱，罪恶感恶梦般时刻在他左右守侯，他想认罪，他想放下心灵的煎熬。

相约最后一次谈话，却双双死在那条让他们充溢幸福感的船上。

一场不幸福的开始，成为一场不幸福的终点。

关系千万重的意思是，任何事情之间看似并无关联，实则有千丝万缕之联系。

你埋下了罪恶的种，收获的必然是苦果。

当然，伍迪艾伦其实也在探讨亲情、秩序、金钱彼此之间的关系。

它们如此错综复杂，暧昧不清。

当人类越过了道德的底线，那么他们一定会遭受命运的审判。

影片用诙谐中稍带惊悚的风格探讨了人类道德的底线，用所谓亲情遮掩的借口在生命消逝的一瞬间也只会显得虚伪而丑陋。

影片的结局值得玩味，两位本来无辜的有梦想的年轻人双双丧命，而一手策划了这个骗局的“舅舅”却还在逍遥法外，这似乎是作者对于人生的一种戏谑吧。

片中两大男神的演绎十分出彩，麦克格雷格的潇洒和科林法瑞尔难得一见的懦弱，尤其是科林将“”杀人后的纠结挣扎苦闷恐惧表现得淋漓尽致，他的表演也为影片精彩而不失惊讶的剧情做了充分地铺垫。

This is the worst movie of Woody Allen that I have ever seen. Just a simple story, Not creativity, not funny. But I think the biggest problem is the actors. Their performance was so Immature.It's a little boring before Bryan brothers killed Martin burns. About 70 minutes. That part was killing me, and I suspect that was I watching a Woody Allen's movie? The performance of Brian brother was very tedious. They prepare for killing Martin burns could be an funny part. But they didn't. I have to say the ending is also boring. And a little ironic. Because the biggest winner is their uncle.

很多人不喜欢伍迪艾伦的伦敦三部曲，我却觉得从这三部他的电影开始好看和有趣起来了。

赛末点稍微严肃一些，《独家报道》里伍迪艾伦的絮絮叨叨将惊险悬疑的气氛破坏殆尽，加上其剧末戏剧性的死亡和鬼魂们黑色幽默式的对话，将一种喜剧气氛融入片中，使得最后凶手真相的揭露显得毫无高潮，仿佛是顺理成章，自然而然的一件事情。

在这一部里，柯林法莱尔承担了伍迪艾伦往常的角色扮演，他的犹豫，胆怯，懦弱和神经质使观者有不耐烦甚至是愤怒的感觉，仿佛谋杀成了一个观众和伊恩都想要达成的一个愿望，而偏偏是这个无胆赌徒坏了事。

虽然观众明白被杀者并没有什么过错，但都循着伊恩的想法强烈期望着一场谋杀。

谋杀成了一个目标，不涉及道德和法律的判断，而只是一个需要实施的行动。

但，谋杀毕竟是谋杀，观众的心理是被过多戏剧化的谋杀所误导的，在日常生活中，我们面对谋杀的态度更多可能是象柯林一样，面对道德和法律的压力难以平静，无法安宁。

他的让人有些气愤的举动正是我们自己的嘴脸，可能令人厌恶，却也不能不正视。

伍迪艾伦并没有将这一点夸大，却让他显得有些厌恶，从而使观众从一个理想的角度正视日常中自己大概的模样，会发现和戏剧相对比，人生是有多么的无奈和猥琐。

而这种无奈和猥琐是有其位置的。

因此，最终是伊恩被柯林杀死而不是相反，这也许不是我们期望的结果，但却是平庸生活最可能出现的情况，没有高潮，只有无奈。

不知不觉，出生于1935年的伍迪·艾伦即将来到85岁高龄（到今年12月1日）。

与本人心目中另一位宗师级导演伊斯特伍德的日益苍老相比，伍迪·艾伦给人的印象似乎总停留在那个六十多岁、矮小瘦弱、絮絮叨叨的小老头模样。

纵观他四十多年的导演生涯，尽管拍片速度惊人，也做到了内容尽量不重复，但基本的叙事模式却还是比较固定的，比如对「死亡」、「欲望」、「不道德行为」的描摹，对「知识分子」、「中产阶级」的揶揄调侃，以及那些个在他的作品中饱含着重重矛盾与永恒困境的可怜人。

伍迪·艾伦早期的作品大多以喜剧为主，在其创作的所谓「问题喜剧」中，他不断讽刺调侃着人类各种不得体、没有意义或者自寻烦恼的行为。

然而，副作用是正由于在角色上堆积了越来越多荒诞离谱的笑料，也使得那些人物距离日常生活越来越远，他们更像是哈哈镜中的小丑，而不是真实的凡人。

也许是意识到了这一点，之后艾伦将注意力转移到了对知识分子和中产阶级的解剖上，从各个角度戳破他们的伪装。

但是，就算伍迪·艾伦被誉为「喜剧大师」，他骨子里的悲观主义反而是其所有作品美学意识形态的支撑，特别在上世纪八十年代后他执导的那些犯罪剧情片中反映尤甚。

新世纪以后，一方面是拍摄成本的考量，另一方面出于艺术上的尝试，伍迪·艾伦将叙事的舞台从家乡纽约移师到了欧洲，期望用客观世界的变化带动承载故事和认知经验的变化，给予观众新的观影体验。

可以说，艾伦的这一尝试是大胆的，结果也是比较成功的，他所选择的伦敦、罗马、巴黎、巴塞罗那都以深厚的文化积淀为电影叙事提供了丰富的空间。

其中《赛末点》、《卡珊德拉之梦》和《独家新闻》这三部在伦敦拍摄的影片并称为「伦敦三部曲」，且都以「谋杀」为叙事主线，也许便是导演考虑到了观众在心理上会很容易将伦敦这座城市与「福尔摩斯小说」或者「希区柯克电影」等文化标签联系起来。

《卡珊德拉之梦》是一部正式而标准的悲剧，并且一改伍迪·艾伦以往聚焦知识分子或者中产阶级的惯例，而是把视角对准了社会底层的人物。

生活在伦敦的伊恩和特里两兄弟家境一般，伊恩在父亲开的餐馆里帮忙，特里则是一名修车工。

父亲的餐厅经营状况不佳，性格软弱，经常遭到强势的母亲抢白，而母亲的言谈中充满了拜金市侩的气息，动不动让兄弟俩向身为成功商人的舅舅霍华德学习怎么发财。

艾伦在影片中多次不疾不徐地用两种不同的空间进行细腻的对比与铺垫，一是一家四口吃饭时逼仄狭小的家庭空间和由对话营造出的压抑氛围，另一个是宽广的外景，兄弟俩用赛狗赌博赢来的钱买了一艘二手的小游艇，影片伊始便是两人买船和出海的场景，那种无拘无束的自由既是兄弟俩一直憧憬的生活，也是导致这出悲剧的源头。

伍迪·艾伦的悲观意识从这个故事的构建之初就尽显无遗。

大多数现代人总是陷落在无休止的琐事中不能自拔，被日常生活所累而放弃对理想的追求，人生的轨迹周而复始难以改变，这样的生活状态也一样呈现在伊恩和特里的身上。

两人都对生活现状不满，但短时间内又缺乏改变现状的机会和才华。

同时，他们各自的缺点亦让这种境况愈加恶化。

伊恩爱慕虚荣，特里沉溺赌博。

前者新结识了一个迷人的女演员，为了追求对方，不自量力地夸下了许多海口；后者为了能和妻子住上大房子，不惜借钱赌博，以至欠下大笔赌债。

导演丝毫不加掩饰的讲述方式将人物面临的困境呈现在观众面前，虽无跌宕起伏，却让观众不自觉地为两兄弟的命运揪心。

就在他俩濒临绝望之际，一直被母亲挂在嘴边的霍华德舅舅来伦敦探望他们一家，两兄弟仿佛盼来了救星，可没想到的是舅舅虽然允诺帮助他们渡过难关，不过却要他们帮他除掉一个商业上的伙伴作为回报。

显然，舅舅扮演了「撒旦」的角色，以金钱和亲情为诱饵，将两人拖下了万丈深渊。

经过痛苦的思想挣扎，他们终于答应并顺利杀死了目标，然而当金钱到手之后烦恼也接踵而至。

伍迪·艾伦的犯罪片向来深受《罪与罚》的影响，这一陀思妥耶夫斯基式的命题自然也被运用在了本片之中。

两兄弟既然犯下了罪孽，那么如拉斯柯尔尼科夫般的道德困境与良心拷问也不会遥远。

先是特里在杀人之后噩梦连连、精神恍惚，受不了内心的煎熬而犹豫着要不要投案自首。

得知消息后的伊恩害怕会连累自己，找到舅舅商量，两人于是又酝酿杀掉特里灭口。

在寄托着两人美好向往的小游艇上，伊恩把毒药下到了酒里，但在最后一刻又因为良心的谴责而下不了手，矛盾的情绪一下子难以排遣而和特里发生了争执。

伊恩在互相推搡中不慎跌倒致死，而内疚的特里也随后自杀身亡。

如果说《赛末点》中的「运气」成分让主人公逃过了制裁，那么《卡珊德拉之梦》证明了「运气」终究是偶然的，生活中的悲剧也许才是一种常态。

我们在人生的微观世界里为了给自己一点意义和价值去追求的事业、行动、关系，以及其他所要操心的事，终归都会指向失败。

与伍迪·艾伦擅长的将悲剧意识注入到喜剧作品中从而构造出的强大的对峙性力量相比，这部单纯的悲剧谈不上多么成功或者说多么具有启发意义。

个人看来，本片更像是对「金钱乃万恶之源」的一个注脚，亦可看作是艾伦版的「一枕黄粱」。

从兄弟俩将他们的小游艇命名为「卡珊德拉之梦」起，悲剧就已经注定了。

「卡珊德拉之梦」是为他们赢得奖金的那条狗的名字，但「卡珊德拉」也是希腊神话中的预言家，只是她预言的那些厄运却经常被人忽视。

生活的无奈、悲凉和虚幻不正是如此吗？

Woody Allen实在是个很有趣的老头。

我第一次听到他的名字是在黄舒俊的《改变1995》中，“我没和U2一起表演，倒是看到Woody Allen走在45街”。

他的新片叫《Cassandra's dream》（卡珊德拉之梦），中文译法是“迷失爱与罪”。

看完全片，发现中译名还是比较靠谱的。

不过这样就失落了原名的寓意。

在希腊神话中，卡珊德拉是特洛伊的公主，有预言的能力，后来由于拒绝阿波罗的爱，便遭其诅咒，令所有人不相信她的预言。

特洛伊战败后她成了希腊军统帅阿伽门农的俘虏，她预言阿伽门农和自己的死亡，结果一一应验。

这个故事是悲剧的寓言。

这是个普通的美国中下层家庭。

父亲花一生心血经营着亏本的餐馆，家人要靠舅舅的接济维持生活，为此父亲常常遭到母亲的奚落，大儿子伊万一心想着离开餐馆从事酒店业，小儿子泰利在车房工作，爱酒爱赌，眼前目标是买个房子和女友结婚。

梦想与失落在这个家庭中纠结，日常磨擦时时不断。

它真实得像我们的某个邻居或者某个穷困的亲戚。

这很恰当。

没有谁生来就是罪犯，刑事案件当中，真正凶残得杀人不眨眼的也并不多见。

一个偶然的机会，哥哥伊万邂逅了漂亮的女演员安哲娜，从此爱得死心塌地，安哲娜要的却是个有钱和可以照顾她的男人。

与此同时，弟弟泰利为了尽快买到房子，豪赌不料输了九万英磅。

两人一筹莫展之际，有钱舅舅来家里庆祝母亲的生日，两人厚着脸皮向舅舅借钱。

舅舅却提了一个让他们瞠目结舌的要求：杀掉将在法庭上揭发他的助手马丁宾斯。

命运是如此的吊诡。

忽然一个改变三人命运的机会来了，可是机会就意味着诱惑，意味着选择道德还是甘于堕落。

故事的发展是毫无悬念的。

人心里只有一个念头时，就是变得歇斯底里的时候，他会把全部的能量用来付诸这个念头的实现。

这时的人是最可怕的。

哥哥只想着留住女朋友，弟弟只想着还清赌债，舅舅只想着不要坐牢。

三个人为了各自的愿望，决意去杀害一个无辜的、前一晚还和年轻女友做爱、当天还见了九十多岁老母亲一面的人。

这件谋杀案天衣无缝，让两兄弟如释重负。

可是没有别人知道，不等于良心不知道，不等于上帝不知道。

一个人除非坚决弃绝善恶之心，只想着如何更好地猎取眼前的一切，否则不可能不受到良心的拷问，不受到上帝的责问。

相形之下，哥哥伊万更为坚决，弟弟泰利却终日陷入梦魇中，喃喃自语“我们做了这么可怕的事情，如果上帝知道怎么办”。

我猜中了故事的发展。

一个人如果要脱离罪恶，必须在因由处赎罪。

这是弟弟泰利的选择，他打算自杀或自首。

一个人如果已经犯下恶行，为了不昭然于世，办法是继续作恶，中国话叫“一不做，二不休”。

这是哥哥泰利的抉择。

他打算带弟弟出海，造成服毒品过量身亡的假象。

我却猜不中故事的结局。

哥哥终于不忍心递给弟弟有毒的啤酒，两人在船上推拉中，哥哥重重地倒在地上死了，弟弟自杀。

这艘名为“卡珊德拉”的小船孤零零地漂在岸边，既是宿命，也是人性最后的归宿。

一切只能悔不当初。

念念不忘的还是片中弟弟泰利反复说的那句话，如果上帝知道怎么办？

上帝给予了人自由意志，在伊甸园中，人可以选择不受诱惑，或者受到惩罚。

在善恶面前，伊万和泰利同样拥有自由意志，同样有得选择。

能够在善恶之间作出选择的，毕竟是人自己。

请别忘了有上帝。

Cassandra’s Dream (100 Minutes)Page 1 The two brothers runs toward a boat that they love. We know from the conversation that one brother knows mechanics, loves gambling but generous while the other one is into business deals and selfish. They talk about their longing for the time they spent with their rich uncle.Page 3 The parents complain that their son has bought a boat. And when they talk about their uncle, the mother rubs his dad’s nose when he is not impressed with his success.Page 5 Terry gives all of his winning money from his gambling to pay off the boat. They give the boat the 60 to 1 lucky name: Cassandra’s Dream. Ethan invites a waitress at his dad’s restaurant to go sailing with them.Page 6 When they are enjoying the sea air, Ethan talks about his dream of investing in the California hotels. Then he talks to a guy about the huge potential in the investment. And he talks to his girlfriend how he is afraid his investment might upset his dad.Page 9 Ethan takes his girlfriend to picnic and fishing in the countryside with the classic car borrowed from Terry’s garage. On the way back, he helps a beautiful girl with her car problem. The girl is an actress and she thinks Ethan is rich because of the car he’s driving. (OPPORTUNITY OF MEETING THE ACTRESS)Page 11 The parents show Terry’s girl old photos and their sons’ childhood. They also talk about their potential: Terry opening a sport shop as he is good at sports and Ethan hugely successful because he is smart.
