Editor's Note:
發光的電影,發熱的愛人同志電影被發明了一百多年,但是「同志電影」到今天都還是方興未艾,華語世界尤其如此,從過去影展對同志主題的草創,到今日創作者屢獲國際金獎,太多事情都在這短短的20年發生,而也還有很多事情等待發出更為熾烈的光與熱......本書集結兩岸三地重要的華語電影人,透過導演、演員與影評人的對話與評述文章,重溫《喜宴》、《藍宇》、《春光乍洩》等數十部作品,並討論同志電影的宿命與未來。在中國的20年,同志電影總是面對到審查制度的問題,從《霸王別姬》、《東宮西宮》到《春風沉醉的夜晚》無一能脫離被禁命運;在香港的20年,同志電影則面對到了商業化的考驗,通俗片對同志形象的粗製濫造,或因過份美化而無實質,創作者都引以為戒;而在台灣的20年,電影是否要冠上同志這個美名,也一直被討論著,李安、蔡明亮和年輕一代的創作者都有各自的想法,並持續推出難以被歸...(展开全部)电影低俗小说获奖情况:1995年 奥斯卡(美国电影学院奖) 最佳原创剧本-昆汀·塔伦蒂诺1995年 奥斯卡(美国电影学院奖) 最佳原创剧本-罗杰·阿夫瑞1995年 金球奖(Golden Globe) 最佳编剧-昆汀·塔伦蒂诺...........................................................................................................《低俗小说》由“文森特和马萨勒斯之妻”、“金表”、“邦妮的处境”三个故事以及影片首尾的序幕和尾声五个部分组成。看似独立的小故事里面,却又有环环相扣的人和事。盗贼“小南瓜”和“小兔子”在早餐店里打劫,却遇上了天大的麻烦——黑社会成员朱尔斯(塞缪尔•杰克逊Samuel L . Jackson饰)和文森特(约翰•特...(展开全部)“美,即为有意味的形式 。”《奥林匹亚》是对这句话的最佳诠释,它既是纪录片的巅峰之作,也是所有电影的范本。在一位传奇女性(莱妮·里芬斯塔尔)的主导下,它采用超越性的视角,以展现人体之美为目标,如此宏大和澎湃,给后人留下了无尽的探讨空间。本书解读了这部壮美作品的诞生过程和内在意涵,从中可以清晰地看到,创作者如何把他们所拥有的资源和所受到的诸种限制,极具想象力地转化成表现人体、运动、激情的动力泉源。一起来从纸上观赏这最独特的奥运会 最壮美的纪录片吧。《百年光影覓香江》是香港電影資料館為紀念十周年而籌畫達兩年多的一個DVD光碟連專書的出版項目,光碟精選了香港二十世紀上半期的珍貴紀錄電影片段,和二次世界大戰後反映時代變遷的電影選段。資料館特別邀得嶺南大學人文學科研究中心的梁秉鈞教授、黃淑嫻博士、黃勁輝博士、許旭筠女士、鄭政恆先生,組成寫作團隊,配合光碟主題撰寫文章,探討自上世紀初到今天的電影文化發展,內容豐富,實為難得的參考及教學素材。《爱的误区:电影里的教养反思》内容简介:从《功夫熊猫》,学正确培养规划?培养孩子做“成功的大侠”,父母该给他什么样的历练?从《钢琴教师》,看如何处理亲子关系?父母对孩子的控制,什么程度才最为合适?这几年,一些教育理念层出不穷,如“富养女儿,穷养儿子”、“尊重孩子”、“挫折教育”、“接纳孩子”等等,而这些理念如果把握不好一个度,很容易让家庭教育走入一个误区,家长如果不能深刻理解这些理念,也很难在教育孩子时,拿捏好分寸。胡萍老师从2006年开始,首次把电影艺术与家庭教育相结合,把每部电影提炼出一个主题,然后围绕这个主题来理清父母在教育孩子时存在的困惑与误区。她利用那些电影中的故事教你正确地教育孩子,也利用电影中感人的故事教你怎样保护你孩子的心理健康。艺术来源生活,高于生活,《爱的误区:电影里的教养反思》汇集了胡老师几年来以电影赏析的形式来谈教育的内容。形...(展开全部)《幸福的泪》由两部分组成,第一部分讲一位普通的母亲如何将自己的孩子养大成人,可是也在这段时间失去了另一个儿子,而失去的儿子又在暗里地用自己单薄的身躯养着这个飘摇的家;第二部分是失去的儿子回归母亲的怀抱,却是以残疾的状态回来,这位母亲用内心的爱换回来了两位儿子的孝心;《幸福的泪》不只是在说这个小家庭的孝道,而是影射了这个社会需要更多的爱,特别是对老人,长辈的爱,我们的父母需要我们这颗在外拼搏的心的关爱着孤独的老人,父母同时也在惦记着孩子的冷暖。戛纳电影节的故事是由激情、风波、争议与凯旋组成的,它远比小说有趣。为了对抗纳粹掌控下的威尼斯电影节,它于1939年8月31日打开了自己的大门,但第二天,希特勒就入侵了波兰,战争爆发了,戛纳电影节刚刚诞生便香消玉殒了。意想不到的是,1946年,它又在胜利的喜悦中复活。尽管有时因喧闹和奢华而被诟病,戛纳电影节永远都那么迷人。今天,它已成了世界上最受媒体关注的事件之一。这个全球电影人的盛会,每年都发掘出无数新人和佳片,为电影事业作出了难以磨灭的贡献。法国因戛纳电影节骄傲。《戛纳电影节的故事》是对戛纳电影节成立六十周年(1946—2007)的致敬之作,是戛纳电影节生动的写照。“视觉本质上是色情的;电影使我们凝视世界,仿佛它是赤裸的身体。”在《可见的签名》里,詹姆逊通过思考银幕上的想象世界和投射出的历史世界的关系,对电影和视觉文化进行了深入的探讨和理论阐述。他探讨了《闪灵》、《炎热的下午》,以及希区柯克影片中的讽喻意味和意识形态含义。半个多世纪过去了,书中对电影的分析仍然让人觉得入木三分,那些后现代主义的风流人物依旧难掩詹姆逊作为一名作家和思想家的夺目光辉,他对他们的批判从未终止。电影诗意语言类型的研究,ISBN:9787106035716,作者:陈志生 著《故事•产业•类型:电影编剧讲义》写到,此次将青年编剧班的学术成果集结成书更是意义非凡。这本沉甸甸的书不仅仅只是把专家讲课资料、课堂讨论、交流心得等进行简单的整理汇总,而是编剧界专家们多年来研究的优秀成果以及自身创作心得的集中展示和集大成之作。《故事•产业•类型:电影编剧讲义》将为中国电影编剧更好地适应市场、把握电影国情,提高创作水平提供一本优秀的专业参考文献。北京影协会将抓剧本、抓创作,扶持青年人才,尤其是青年编剧,作为一项中心工作长期坚持下去,通过这一专业平台来发现、培养更多的优秀编剧人才,为北京电影事业的发展和中国电影的繁荣做出应有的贡献。罗伯特•麦基被称作“好莱坞编剧教父”,由他开设的“故事”培训班已经成为全球最大的故事与写作机构,他的学生们共计获得超过49个奥斯卡奖项,超过170个艾美奖项,超过30个美国作家协会奖项,超过26个美国导演协会奖项。本书囊括了麦基先生“故事”培训班课程的全部理念,并增加了他的影评、对话录等很多新的内容,并融入了麦基先生关于艺术、人生的思考。本书是自1997年HarperCollins出版社出版的《故事》一书之后,麦基先生十五年来最新著作,也是他关于电影、剧本创作、艺术的经典之作,不仅适合编剧和小说家阅读,同样适合其他文字和创意工作者阅读与收藏。布鲁斯•布洛克有三十余年的影视行业工作经验和电影教学经验,对影像的视觉结构有着深入而独到的认识,本书已被译为5种文字,是电影专业的经典教程。书中介绍了空间、线条和形状、影调、色彩、运动、节奏等基本视觉元素,以及如何运用这些元素驾驭视觉结构、表达人物情绪、展现故事主题, 进而创造出更具表现力的影像。同时,本书也能够使读者清晰准确地认识到故事结构与电影、视频、动画和电脑游戏等视觉媒体的视觉结构间的关系。此外,全书图文并茂,配备了大量作者自己制作的和从影片中截取的插图,主要章节还列出了“推荐片目”,以便读者可以更深入地,更有针对性地观看影片。本书最大的特点,就是消弭了电影教学过程中普遍存在的理论与实践间的巨大鸿沟,不但能让读者更有意识地掌握电影这门“外语”的视觉语言,而且在每章结尾给动手拍片的创作者提供了切实可行的具体操作建议。这本书既是电影专业学生训...(展开全部)《电影视阈中的跨文化研究》,本书主要内容包括: 电影与跨文化传播 ; 跨文化研究 ; 电影视阈的美国社会与文化 ; 电影视阈下的跨文化比较 ; 从跨文化比较到跨文化对话 —— 电影视阈下的跨文化对话。电影理论史上最重要的著作之一。不仅具有百科全书式的视野,而且汇集了经典电影理论时期的论述,形成一份总纲。作者让•米特里,是法国电影理论家,电影史学家,电影教育家,法国电影学院教授,实验电影导演,法国电影资料馆创办人。译者崔君衍,是国内电影理论的权威学者,巴黎大学访问学者,哈佛大学高级访问学者,曾任中国电影家协会书记处书记,中国电影出版社总编辑。对光影世界再现历史记忆的深度审视。正如本书戴锦华所言:“再现的政治不仅联系着历史与记忆,但21世纪之初,它却的确成为再现政治中极为突出的命题。于今日中国,历史与记忆的命题不仅关乎过去,而且联系着当下,指涉着未来。”接续上一年《光影之隙》的追求,年书仍深怀全球视野,既关注新新人类送别《哈利·波特》的“稚嫩的沧桑感”,更把目光锁定在“夹边沟”“光尘之忆”等历史记忆的表述及其对遗忘的抵抗之上;既关注小成本制作的突围之举,也关注新技术手段带来的冲击和无限可能性。《白鹿原志》是对国际知名电影导演王全安从计划拍摄到历时一年完成拍摄,到最终审定公映电影作品《白鹿原》的完整纪录,并收录了王全安依据陈忠实原著改写的电影剧本,收录了22位各界知名人士对电影的评论。《白鹿原志》完整呈现了《白鹿原》拍摄过程中选景和美术设计,演员选定和角色塑造拍摄心得,导演拍摄台本和精彩拍摄实景对照。《白鹿原》小说和电影都呈现历史的厚重,《白鹿原志》忠实记录电影过程。《上海公共租界电影审查(1927-1937)》旨在讨论民国时期,尤其是1927~1937年上海公共租界的电影审查制度。1927年工部局确立了电影审查制度,在随后十年的发展历程中,电影审查制度日臻完善。工部局禀承自己的审查原则对租界内上映的中外影片实施全面控制,它的电影审查制度不仅异于宗属国英国、殖民地香港等地区,而且也与中国其他地区的电影审查保持着相对的独立。《上海公共租界电影审查(1927-1937)》结合历史文献分析、及媒体传播等多种研究方法,通过对公共租界电影审查制度的考察,分析诸多引起电影审查制度变迁的因素,以及审查制度的变迁对民国电影业所造成的影响,以此来反观1927~1937年的民国政治与文化。★ 全世界最知名、最受欢迎、最有创新精神的皮克斯动画制作工作室的创新传奇★ 世界知名的迪士尼研究专家、企业管理咨询专家为你揭秘皮克斯的创新魔法★ 打造乐园型企业:创造最快乐的创意团队!★★★★★众多耳熟能详的动画大片如《玩具总动员》、《海底总动员》、《怪物公司》 、《超人总动员》、《汽车总动员》、《料理鼠王》、《机器人总动员》、《飞屋环游记》、《勇敢传说》等等,它们都诞生于同一家神奇的动画工作室,也是一片充满魔力的创意乐园——皮克斯。在《皮克斯:关于童心、勇气、创意和传奇》里,世界知名的迪士尼研究专家、企业管理咨询专家将为你揭秘皮克斯的创新魔法,让你感受皮克斯这家与众不同的创新型企业中随处可见的童心、勇气、创意与传奇。★★★★★全世界最知名、最有创新精神的动画制作工作室——皮克斯——是乔布斯除苹果公司之外给世界留下的另一个伟大遗产。《玩...(展开全部)作者多年的學院訓練和風格追求,使其文字擺脫了纖細的情緒直覺,知性、深刻中不失華美與質感。電影只是一種管窺的途徑,作者提供了四通八達的詮釋可能,接駁於她對人生、情感、審美、文化的打量與體悟。這是一本夜生活的電影清單,讓人沉湎於聲色光影、在無眠無休中愛恨纏綿的夜晚,儘管那不過是銀幕或碟機...
