評審團特別獎銀熊獎
看了無數次的經典之作,在人生的各種階段欣賞都有不同的感受。我在第一章看到自己,在第二章從教授的話語中找到自信,在第三章中理解偶然。
很生活又很有導演風格的一部片,鏡頭語言上也能感受到團隊的細心。
〈もう一度〉 人生由偶然構成、用想像填補遺憾 而偶然與想像在我們的生命中交織成最好的樣子
這就是我人生的樣子。 整片看完,強烈的知曉將會如此,而非預感。 劇情詩意的原因來自於人對自己的理解附帶的解決方案。解決方案是專為自己而設的,所以能感受到情感的純樸與忠誠。 我迫不急待的想等到哪天,知道有誰也因為類似的原因愛上這部或其他部,我們會是很好的創作和遊戲夥伴。 片中兩次的zoom in詼諧到會讓人笑出來,本來在情緒裡面,結果被搞一個措不及防,很可惜。 (選角選得好好,演員好好看)
《偶然與想像》 比我想的還要好看!!!!!!!!!! 《在車上》我只看到前面1/3不到就先擱置 我以為《偶然與想像》會面臨相似的結局,我甚至做好了「沒關係我還可以分三段看」的準備笑死,但是看完第一個故事後我就停不下來了,短劇的魅力??展現極短篇的過癮感,加上最近也都看動畫作品多,40分鐘左右真的差不多,豪喜 (《最好的時光》我就有分段看哈哈) 最喜的是最後選擇的這三個偶然故事,是低卡上會爆的文章,但又不像創作文,如同剛剛看到其中一個影評說的:「導演把偶然的邊界抓的很剛好,不會多到脫離現實,但又不會少到過於日常。」而這部用大量的對話建構,滿足了劇名「想像」的其中一個面向(其他面向對我而言還有:文學與性愛的想像〈敞開的大門〉、傾訴對象的想像〈再一次〉,以及情境的想像〈魔法(也比不上的虛幻)〉),似乎可以說我們的生活是由想像和行動構成,虛實交錯(非真假,更像是虛的意念和實的經驗) 但是大量對話對非母語者有點不友善,看字幕會讓我對畫面分心,但是不看就無法理解整部戲的故事= = 除了「想像」,我覺得「偶然」是整部電影最靈魂的點,就像是某種樞紐,匯集不同人的生命然後迸出火花,那是相當美麗,或是好笑有趣的,當然也會有不少無奈,但我又對於這種偶然愛不釋手,因為它特別。 然後整部電影的畫面相當簡單乾淨,或許是想讓人專注在對話上?會讓我有看舞台劇的感覺,而且每段對話發生的空間都不大(車上、辦公室、家裡客廳),演員的走位和調度就相對明顯許多,蠻有趣的。 上一部看有大量台詞和對話的電影是《愛在黎明破曉時》,男女主角之間的大量談話,或許就是〈魔法(也比不上的虛幻)〉裡繼美說的:「我和他聊了15個小時,那是一段魔法時光。」,由此可見,對話是魔幻的,也是能勾出人的情感(的吧)。
44:50 炮友是不親吻的
拍個電影不要這麼話癆
〈敞開的大門〉完全是頹廢大學生硬要拖別人下水的故事。但精彩之處在於「誘惑要往弱點戳」,奈緒的引誘似真似假,而教授是否因奈緒的誘惑而「假戲真做」了片刻?兩人的互動是曖昧的、流動的,透過那扇開關的門,觀者時時刻刻都處於緊張狀態。如同奈緒拿著求教的名義去誘惑老師,所以一直說自己喜歡,但又不是真的,從這個觀點來看,誰真的被誘惑了?這裡也要講講三部短片都曾出現的「角色直視鏡頭」,那是電影幻術消失的瞬間,角色彷彿在對觀影者說話(而不是電影裡的對方),觀者能直接進入故事,接受每個故事所要傳達的意念。 以真摯的「如果其他人否定你,請抵抗。」「你珍惜的價值有一天會鼓勵到他人。」後續的偶然更使人惋惜,朗誦的魔幻時刻也不復存在。 〈再一次〉而是一場莊重的儀式。背景設定混亂的網路病毒,如同混亂的記憶,使人在迷霧中更貼近自己。兩位中年女子偶遇,後來才發現錯認了彼此。但這才是這個故事感人之處:就算你不是對方,我還是秉持那時的信念前來了。只因為她們都很想見對方,就算知道不是對方,還是把眼前的人當成演練的對象。每次的演練就好像時間能再回放一次,作為救贖,就是因為時間久遠,自己得以填充記憶,各自可以建構想像的過去。「你現在幸福嗎?」、「我很後悔沒有勇敢面對自己的感情」、「你就是我想像中理想的樣子」都是一種心理真實,重複相遇的儀式,彷彿兩人再度年輕。雖然偶遇讓人感到慌張,想像卻讓人感到安心。 三部短片都呈現了某程度的時間跨度,不論是芽衣子與阿和舊情復燃(?)、奈緒鑄下錯誤的五年後、夏子和彩橫跨二十年的錯認。若要統括這些故事,我會統以看似無關的瀨川教授得獎詞:「我曾經20年寫不出來,但這本小說一氣呵成,彷彿20年不曾存在。」這二十年來的空白彷彿都在等待這個現在,所以當下才會如此深重,不論那帶來的是背叛的負罪感,抑或是重逢的喜悅。
面對第一段〈魔法(也比不上的虛幻)〉裡長達十分鐘的車內對話,觀者像是在車內轉過頭,兩位朋友就在後座聊天。但演到阿和與芽衣子對話時,前面的自然又瞬間緊張起來,一來一往的自然表現也引人疑竇。不只是因為女主角瞞著摯友,更是因為「時間原來會騙人」。如果這樣的自然都能夠是「演」出來的,一方面我們可以肯定芽衣子在車上時,情緒的真假界線,是模糊的。進而觀者會發現,濱口龍介用三人情感說出「這些年的情愛與時光中就是錯付了」,在意的不只是時間的量,更是時間的質。當芽衣子送走小美,決定坐車前往阿合的住處,這不也是種偶然?記憶的回溯也是一種「不好意思,請問可以照原路開回去嗎?」 小美說出「你的事我都和芽衣子說了,抱歉。」其實芽衣子都知道,她才為了小美被蒙在鼓裡感到抱歉。因為偶然,互為前任的彼此才意識到自己仍愛著對方。透過偶然,認出必然;透過虛假,找回真實。所以在第一種結局裡,芽衣子說「你們的相遇是讓我再次愛上他的魔法」,導演更設計了第二個結局,芽衣子在平行的時空中無可奈何,她心裡已經有了答案,所以實行小小的復仇:離開轉身,拍下那個城市,那個複雜情感的所在。
《偶然與想像》主要有推動敘事的三個偶然,分別為:朋友喜歡上前男友、發錯信件、在故鄉將陌生人誤認為同學。不過,濱口龍介卻疊加更多巧合,來讓這些偶然的意義浮現,比如和朋友下午茶時偏偏遇見前男友、多年以後遇到唆使仙人跳的砲友等等。一系列的偶然沒有讓故事失重,反而提供了一個在高度管理的時間、機械化的行程表之外,看見生活不同面貌的窗口。這樣的處理手法也常見於短篇小說,利用偶然做為契機,靜靜擾動日常,到達啟蒙般的時刻。
濱口龍介的電影《睡著也好醒來也罷》改編自日本作家柴崎友香的小說,「讀到最後,必定會為朝子那不可思議的自私而吃驚吧。」記得書裡的附錄有過這麼一句評論。這部作為濱口龍介在台正式上映的第一部電影,迴響稱不上熱烈,直到東出昌大和唐田英里佳爆出不倫,這部片才在新聞裡再度被提起。而東出面對「喜歡杏還是唐田?」的地獄提問,說出了「我的想法會傷害妻子。」驚人般的誠實之語——如此看來,他實在很適合活在濱口的電影裡呀。

Looking back on 2021—a year shaped by a disrupted daily rhythm, rising geopolitical tensions, and unforgettable moments on the Olympic stage—Giloo presents nine of the year’s most popular films. We hope each one leaves a lasting impression on your heart.
“How did writing a novel become such a deadly thing?” — Terrorizers They say there's nothing new under the sun. But once we step into the world of fiction, all the fuss, the unnecessary drama, the meaningless conflict—suddenly becomes the very engine that makes a story move. The meaning of “realism” is turned on its head. Imagination begins to feel more reasonable than reality. Only then can we fully immerse ourselves in each film’s unique narrative world— in the internal logic of its imagery, in the madness that somehow feels perfectly ordered. Because in fiction, as in dreams: Whatever happens, makes sense.
"Everyone starts out wanting to be kind." Four best friends who once shared everything find their bond shattered by a single secret. A woman dates a man who looks exactly like her first love—until the real one, long missing, reappears. Upon discovering her friend has fallen for her ex, she abruptly turns back to find him. A recently widowed man meets a silent female chauffeur who changes the course of his grief. From Locarno to Cannes, Berlin, Venice, and the Oscars, Ryūsuke Hamaguchi, hailed as the heir to Japan’s cinematic masters, gently yet unflinchingly captures stories of intimacy—at once enchanting and cruel—through his lens.
As a comic artist whose work takes root in personal experience and carries the qualities of a novel, I often find myself searching for traces of the narrator within other people’s stories. No matter the genre, the people, events, and objects that appear in a story are never entirely “fictional.” From the central plot or a pivotal incident, to something as subtle as a character’s temperament or quirks—these nuances often stem from the long-term observation and quiet accumulation of a sensitive soul. In this light, film is, in many ways, a series of sugar-coated documentaries. They’ve been made sweet and easy to digest—but if you truly chew on them, you’ll come to realize: beneath that coating lies a core made up of the very life that unfolds around us, every single day.
Starting abruptly, ending just as suddenly, the short story in literary awards is an art of precise cuts. Often, the entire piece serves a singular, rare, fleeting thought, or the echoing aftermath when hearts collide—once the meaning is conveyed, it can conclude. There's no clinging or indulgence, just a crisp detachment, like a wind chime in summer, leaving no trace after the breeze passes.
The recent buzz around “the multiverse” ultimately points to something simple yet profound: our lives are shaped by the choices we make—big or small, moment by moment. Each film in this selection invites you to reflect on your own path. Was there a decision you made at a certain time that led you to become who you are today? And have you ever found yourself wondering— what if I had chosen differently? What would my life look like now?
Longing is a mix of emotions that includes desire, frustration, happiness, and pain. It can be romantic, sad, or a blend of both. I remember as a teenager, having my first crush—lying on the grass on a long summer afternoon, thinking of someone I barely knew. That yearning was filled with hope, naivety, and innocence. Then there is a kind of longing where one doesn’t even know what they're yearning for—just a continuous feeling of dissatisfaction and quiet sadness. And, of course, there is the mad, passionate obsession with someone, where life feels impossible without the presence of their smell or touch. Each of these selected films evokes that deep, craving sensation—suffocating, overpowering, but also undeniably beautiful.
