The Dark Night of the Soul (1989) [Movie] Douban
La Noche Oscura
director: Carlos Saura actor: 胡安·迭戈 / 费尔南多·古林
other title: 黑夜 / La Noche Oscura
Pantheon filmmaker Carlos Saura bounced back from a handful of failures with 1989's La Noche Oscura (The Dark Night). Juan Diego stars as San Juan de la Cruz (St. John of the Cross), the legendary 16th-century poet-prophet. Galvanized into action by the spirit of Santa Teresa de Jesus, San Juan fought to install reforms in the Carmelite Order. Like many another visionary, he was regarded as a heretic, and promptly subjected to the most appalling of tortures. Writer-director Saura manages to draw several parallels between the religious persecution of the 1700s and the political despotism of Fascist Spain.
歌剧浪子 (2009) [Movie] Douban
Io, Don Giovanni
other title: Io, Don Giovanni / 我,唐乔万尼
影片讲述了歌剧《唐璜》(Don Giovanni)创作过程中发生的故事,中心人物并不是天才莫扎特,而是通常被忽视的词作家达彭特。达彭特的的人生就如歌剧中人物一样丰富多彩。犹太血统的他被迫改信基督教并接受牧师的训练,然而放荡不羁的他同情妇生了一个孩子。置谴责于不顾的达彭特又开了一家妓院,并因此被逐出威尼斯。来到维也纳之后,达彭特很快见到了国王,身为歌剧爱好者的国王将他与莫扎特撮合到一起,成为合作伙伴。达彭特因被同时代的卡萨诺瓦打动而劝说莫扎特创作一部新歌剧,而这就是《唐璜》。
影片是西班牙大师级导演卡洛斯·绍拉78岁高龄时推出的最新作品,以18世界意大利浮华的歌剧声色场为背景,从一个相当独特的侧面反映了艺术创作的过程。影片的主人公是意大利18世纪抒情诗人、歌剧词作者达彭特(Lorenzo da Ponte),他曾与莫扎特合作过歌剧《魔笛》、《费加罗的婚礼》以及《唐璜》。
