22:00 我突然發現大家都抬頭看我,也很認可我,甚至想討好我。 自尊心很強的人不喜歡這樣,因為你明知道不能相信,有人會真心喜歡你,而且維斯康提還宣布我是「世上最美的男孩」。—— 《魂斷美少年》
伯恩·安德森(Björn Andrésen)在他十五歲那年,參加維斯康提(Luchino Visconti)導演的《魂斷威尼斯》演出,俊美的外貌令影迷驚艷不已,導演稱呼伯恩是「世界上最美的男孩」。電影在威尼斯影展首映後,伯恩一夜爆紅,敏感害羞的他承受著來自眾人崇敬(意淫)的目光,內心感到惶恐不安,卻沒有人領著他走過這段歲月,只能獨自面對名聲帶來的巨大衝擊... . 紀錄片《魂斷美少年》,試圖拼組伯恩·安德森的生命故事,關於改變他生命走向的《魂斷威尼斯》、伯恩在日本拍攝廣告與灌製唱片的日子、母親與兒子的死亡對他內心造成的影響,以及盛世美顏之於伯恩,到底是上天的恩賜,或是詛咒?電影最撼人的影像,是青春與衰老的強烈對比(伯恩老了其實還是蠻有魅力哩),電影最感傷的時刻,是人的莫可奈何,我們無力掌控生命的走向,只能走一步算一步。 . 老實說,我不知道伯恩的母親若是能陪伴他更長的時間,或是伯恩沒有接拍《魂斷威尼斯》,沒有獲得「世界上最美的男孩」的稱謂,他的人生會不會變得更好(在另一個多重宇宙,伯恩或許會更快樂,卻也可能過得更慘)?我只知道當攝影機捕捉下伯恩·安德森令人屏息的美,那便成為一個「確定」的答案(而非假設的情境),而伯恩的美將會永遠留在影史之中,無論他願不願意。 . 「當這部電影(《魂斷威尼斯》)上映時,我很訝異居然有這樣的人存在,我不敢相信有人能長得那麼美,一個人出生長大,在生命中的某一刻,美貌如花盛開,這部片捕捉了他的美貌,在他人生中最美的那一刻。」池田理代子(原來《凡爾賽玫瑰》的歐思嘉是以年輕的伯恩外型作為參考原型啊!)
❝ 那純然的美真實存在,你也知道迷戀上美的事物,就等於迷戀上了死亡。 ❞ —— 《魂斷威尼斯》導演維斯康提
【電影導讀分享】by 無影無蹤 「安德森之所以參加試鏡,是因為外婆的虛榮,而他原本也只是當作獲得一個免費出國玩的機會而允諾。在《魂斷威尼斯》之中,他不需要有太多餘的表演,維斯康提只想借重他的盛世美顏,說服觀眾連一個男人也會被他的俊美外形迷倒。換言之,他的存在等同於一個布景、一個花瓶,差別在於他仍然要走路和微笑。」—— 無影無蹤 全文見:https://www.facebook.com/nofilmnome/posts/434472604702321
無影無蹤【新片上架】 魂斷美少年 50 年前以素人之姿演出《魂斷威尼斯》的伯恩安德森,被世人譽為「世界上最美的男孩」,但此稱號卻也成為糾纏他一輩子的陰影。 50年後,曾經紅遍全球的伯恩安德森走過事業起伏、痛失摯愛,如今蓄起鬍鬚長髮的他,對於那段風光又脫序的歲月,仍有許多彼時未能訴說的無奈。 魂斷美少年 ▍The Most Beautiful Boy in the World ▍全片線上看 ☞ https://bit.ly/3wpmMY7
Let us look through cinema at a group of people marginalized by their times, such as the stranded Kuomintang soldiers in Northern Thailand, and the Roma people who lack national protection. While some works focus on individuals, they can represent a collective destiny, including political victim Ko Chi-hwa, Kim Ryon-hui, the woman who vowed to return to her homeland North Korea, and Björn Andrésen, the beautiful boy deprived of his childhood. The unique charm of film lies in its ability to lead us to see sights and human figures we might never encounter in our lifetime.
The Women Make Waves International Film Festival in Taiwan is Asia’s first issue-based film festival focusing on women. Since its founding 29 years ago, it has been dedicated not only to promoting women's work in cinema but also to introducing Taiwanese audiences to films rich in gender discourse and humanistic vision. Giloo presents a curated selection of award-winning and officially selected films from the festival — both fiction and documentary — inviting you to revisit and celebrate these powerful works.
“Just let it go.” “Don’t overthink it.” “You’ve got this!” These are the last things a wounded heart wants to hear. What weighed heavier on Michael Phelps than his 23 Olympic gold medals? What was Robin Williams’ final wish, after a lifetime of making the world laugh through his own pain? And what did Swedish actor Björn Andrésen—hailed as “the most beautiful boy in the world” after Death in Venice—carry under that title? Giloo presents 5 powerful films and documentaries that delve into the realities of psychological trauma. Please—don’t tell them to “move on.”
