简介:Sixty Glorious Years is an exercise in the creation of iconography, both for Victoria and its star, Anna Neagle (who subsequently became known as 'Regal Neagle'). Just as Elizabeth I commissioned artists to create flattering iconic images for public consumption, so this film performs a similar function, for Neagle is more beautiful than the real life Victoria. Controversial events (such as the 'Irish problem') are omitted and unpleasant aspects of Victoria's character (her petulance, arrogance, favouritism and 'right to privilege') are glossed over as endearing little 'whims'. Albert acts as a moderating influence when she goes too far. The film followed a year after the highly successful Victoria the Great (d. Herbert Wilcox, 1937). Again the screenplay is by Miles Malleson and Robert Vansittart, and many of the supporting cast (the cream of acting talent of period) repeat their roles, this time for the colour cameras. This was the first full length Technicolor film of cinematographer Freddie Young, who captures the spectacle of royal weddings, grand balls and opulent interiors, with scenes actually filmed at royal palaces. Vivid battle scenes, set in Alexander Korda's empire territory (Sevastopol and the Sudan), rival those in The Four Feathers (d. Zoltan Korda 1939). The title music sets the tone a regal choir sings over a shot of the crown. Elgar's 1901 'Pomp and Circumstance' march is heard during the diamond jubilee celebrations and, as Victoria's coffin lies in state, the film concludes with Anthony Collins' stately music accompanied by the text of Rudyard Kipling's 'Lest we forget'. Combined with the emotional appeal of scenes of Victoria connecting with her 'ordinary folk', this is stirring stuff. The film connects with contemporary events of 1938. The release of two celebratory royal films was intended to boost public affection for the monarchy in the wake of Edward VIII's abdication. Anglo-German relations were another touchy subject. With another war on the horizon, influential voices wanted appeasement, and the film could be seen to fit that agenda. Victoria herself was of mainly German descent, nicknamed 'the grandmother of Europe', while Albert is a 'good German', charmingly played by Anton Walbrook as a cultured, decent man. Sixty Glorious Years now seems unduly formal and reverential. Had movies existed during Victoria's reign (they only emerged at the end) this might have been the kind of film produced. Unlike Mrs Brown (d. John Madden, 1997), it is all so very 'Victorian'. Roger Philip Mellor

简介:影片讲述了一个典型的罗马尼亚家庭从乡下到城里去领取他们中的大奖。在途中通过高度喜剧化的方式展现了罗马尼亚正经历的经济和社会方面的巨变。然而,这一家人的团结也因为这场原本是一件天大的喜事而遭到严重破坏,再也开心不起来。原来是18岁的女儿赢得了一辆价格不菲的汽车,结果竟然演变成了一场商业广告。\n \n 一罐果汁,三个标签,让她击败了不计其数的消费者,成为崭新房车的主人,但她的噩梦却才刚开始...。\n \n 得奖容易吗?资本主义社会里中产阶级的梦魇,凝结在一个幸运抽中大奖的年轻女孩身上。喝完果汁,寄出三个标签,她击败了不计其数寄出千枚标签的消费者,成为崭新房车的主人。最困难的,她轻松度过了,却没想到噩梦却才刚开始。\n \n 《世界上最快乐的女孩》叙述一个抽中大奖的女孩德莉亚,千里迢迢随着父母到市中心,配合厂商拍摄促销广告。在广告中,她必须现出幸运到不可思议的快乐笑容,念出一连串拗口饶舌的台词,心旷神怡地喝下大半令她获奖的果汁;在广告外,她却必须应付下至拍摄工作人员、上至活动赞助商的各种难缠要求,最令她窒息的却还不是这些陌生人,而是伴她前来的父母,正软硬兼施要她把还没拿到手的新车即刻脱手转卖,好应付家里那些没完没了的账单,就当作报答父母的养育之恩。拍摄过程的消耗、同学质疑她得奖的真实性、诱人的新车、咄咄逼人的父母,德莉亚开始感到身心俱疲......。\n \n 宛如《受影响的女人》中,吉娜罗兰所饰演的家庭主妇角色,因生活中高低小事而逐渐削减旺盛的意志,在疯狂的群体中无法自保,《世界上最快乐的女孩》中的德莉亚从得奖那一刻开始,就踏上了始料未及的麻烦路程,慢慢分毫地削弱她对得奖的快乐,直到她再也笑不出来为止。而这些打击她的重手,却是奖励她喝果汁的厂商,以及理应与她一同分享的父母。神采飞扬的广告背后,隐藏的是多少以理智包藏的利欲野心,以及为资本主义奴役的现代奴仆。\n \n 故事背景仅在一个白天进行,无过多冗长说教的台词、无刻意雕琢的对比凸露,镜头默默检视这个广告的拍摄过程,寓意即自然流露,讽刺感强烈精确。近乎舞台剧式的封闭格局,似乎成为新锐导演们严谨叙事的不错选择,低成本的限制反而让要诉说的概念更加火力集中。看完《世界上最快乐的女孩》,或许可以想想自己会不会早已无形成为资本主义社会中「最快乐的人」,却连一台车、一个小奖也没抽中过。导演Radu Jude生于1977年,在拍过一系列短片之后,这是他的第一部长片。
