    看《艾斯卡达的三次葬礼》

    中午十二点多才到了北京,进家门时已经一点钟了。
    傍晚去新街口转悠,想买个大的玻璃瓶子装贝壳,可惜没买到,只好买几张碟回家。
    其中《艾斯卡达的三次葬礼》个人感觉比较不错。
    老牌演员汤米·李·琼斯的导演处女作。
    戛纳电影节最佳编剧奖和最佳男主角奖。
    编剧是《爱情是狗娘》和《21克》的编剧Guillermo Arriaga。
     
    影片的开始,像每个获奖影片一样沉闷,寥寥几个镜头带出来几张麻木偏执的脸。
    慢慢的,时间轴开始发生混乱,故事被分割成块,无序地摆放在镜头前。
    在混乱的时间线下,看着老汤米和巴里·佩珀麻木的神经质的表演,犯困。
    故事在老汤米劫走巴里之后精彩了许多,困意消失,甚至有些地方非常幽默。
    也许老汤米太心细地照顾那具尸体,我总觉得在鼻子前面有一股腐肉的味道,啤酒喝不下去了。
     
    在巴里毫无生气的脸开始变得有痛苦感动的表情开始,影片里的每一个人都有了存在的意义。
    有一个镜头,警长已经瞄准了绑架了巡警的老汤米,却在犹豫中没有按下扳机。
    那样的景色,那样的人物,那样的感觉,如果电影换成黑白色,就会让人觉得回到了上个世纪六十年代,属于约翰·韦恩的电影里,那种平静中让人心悸的感动。
    大部分时间,电影的节奏被控制得缓慢而悠长,没有高潮,没有撞击,没有滥情。
    但极其丰富的内在张力,控制着我在这片波澜不惊中沉溺,跟着它舒缓的节奏一点点被融化。
    演员的表演大都是隐忍和麻木的,从容不乏冰冷。
    影片的最后,炫目的阳光下,巴里·佩珀的那个表情打动了我,走了这一遭生死之旅后,他的身上终于可以嗅出人的味道。
    我也再次想起我的啤酒,只是它已经不那么冰凉了。
     
    PS:传说中即将由赵本山主演的《落叶》也是一个送尸回乡的故事,不知道会不会变成此片的中国农民版。
