Interrupted Melody

other title: 西厢情断 / 永不停止的情弦
电影《西厢琴断》《Interrupted Melody》是米高梅电影公司一部早期的彩色音乐电影,由葛伦‧福特(Glenn Ford)、艾莲娜‧帕克(Eleanor Papker)、罗杰‧摩尔( Roger Moore)、彼得‧李德(Peter Leeds)等人主演,由威廉‧鲁特维克(William Ludwig)和索尼亚‧李维安(Sonya Levien)根据传奇女高音玛乔莉‧劳伦丝(Marjorie Lawrence )的真实故事改编而成,并由克劳克斯(Cloux)担任乐团指挥,感人至深的音乐电影。
故事的背景发生在澳洲温彻西亚(Winchelsea)的劳伦斯农庄,由于农庄主人也就是玛乔莉的父亲生性严肃,管教严格,在电影一开始,喜欢唱歌又深具歌唱天分的玛乔莉,为了要偷偷报名参加歌唱选拔赛,而在一大清早由女仆和哥哥加以掩护,骑马赶搭第一班火车,去参加比赛。结果当天揭晓之后,却在第二天早晨,由于父亲劳伦斯先拿到报纸,在早餐的餐前祷告当中,向上帝献上感恩与祝祷,从而开启了玛乔莉远赴巴黎寻找演唱机会之路。
深具歌唱天分的玛乔莉,在因缘际会之下,虽然接到父亲突然过逝的噩耗,仍然顺利的展开演唱生涯,并且一路爆红,成了歌剧界几乎无所不能的当红女高音。在她的哥哥赶来担任经纪人之后,由于机会不断,酬祚不断,而使玛乔莉飞快成了社交名媛,身边簇拥着来自各地的权贵和仰慕者。
几经周折,包括乃兄塞罗的横加拦阻,她仍然选择嫁给了她所深爱的耳鼻喉科医生“金”。其实在结婚之前,由于演唱太过频繁,玛乔莉的声音已经开始发生问题,结婚之后,为了不冷落先生,当红的玛乔莉还推却了所有不在家附近的演唱会邀约。直到有一天金医生表明不希望因为婚姻影响玛乔莉演唱生命,玛乔莉顺势提出要远行演唱五个月的要求,双方却因此开始产生争执,演唱行程开始不久,玛乔莉却在一次排演当中当众失声,并且昏厥在地,经过诊断,才发现她不仅声带严重受损,下肢也突然完全麻痹。
遭此严重打击的玛乔莉顿时陷入身心灵的绝境当中,纵使先生耗尽金钱与时间企图妥为照顾,玛乔莉仍然在获知先生为此几乎倾尽所有之下,企图仰药自杀,无计可施的先生于是狠下心肠,在病榻旁边播放玛乔莉的演唱录音,并且不理会太太的恳求,逼使几乎崩溃的玛乔莉用双手爬下病榻,使尽全力推倒唱片架,为此痛哭相拥的夫妻,凄惨的生命和际遇也从此开始有所转机。
故事最后,坐着轮椅的玛乔莉,不但克服所有病痛,坐着轮椅到军医院为作战受伤的军人歌唱,受邀到战地为浴血苦战的军人歌唱,最后还终于在纽约大都会歌剧院复出演唱艰难异常的华格纳歌剧《崔斯坦与伊索德》。
在这部电影里面,选唱了包括:比才歌剧《卡门》、威尔第歌剧《唐‧卡罗》、《游唱诗人》、普契尼歌剧《波西米亚人》、《蝴蝶夫人》、圣赏歌剧《参孙与大利拉》,还有华格纳歌剧《诸神的黄昏》、《崔斯坦与伊索德》等剧著名的咏叹调,加上演员称职,剧情感人,实在是一部不可多得的音乐电影。

Sorry but despite the fact that the 1931 version of this novel was the only western film to win an Academy Award for Best Picture it does not compare to the entertainment value of this version. True this is perhaps not the best adaptation of Ms. Ferber's novel, but then how many films are perfect adaptations of their source material. There are wonderful scenes missing from this adaptation, but then there are wonderful scenes missing from the adaptation of GWTW. No, I am not comparing this to a classic like GWTW. But the '31 version is not in the same class as GWTW either. This film should be taken for what it actually is, a good solid epic entertainment with spectacular scenes and good performances. Glenn Ford is perfect casting for Yancy. His performance is far superior to that of the overripe, stilted scenery chewing one delivered by Richard Dix in the original. Ford's boyish manner easily captures the charming immature nature of the character. Maria Schell is on a par with Irene Dunne. It is a pity her character was rewritten from the novel to be weaker than Ferber intended. This was obviously done to make the film Ford's but she's still gives a performance that is on the money. As so do the myriad supporting players in the film. Back in 1960, MGM obviously needed a big movie to move into the theaters that had been playing "Ben-Hur" for over a year. So this production was rushed to completion to fit the bill. The fact that it was shot in Cinemascope instead of a "Big" 70 mm process is evidence of this. It has been written that the production was shut down before the scripted ending could be filmed. This explains the rather abrupt and somewhat awkward end to the film. Perhaps a regular non "Roadshow" release might have fared better both with the critics and at the box-office. It often seems that those who praise the older version over this film have seldom actually seen the former. For many years the 1931 version was not available for viewing. During that period many film historians gushed in their praise of it. When it finally reappeared on screens most of them found it very creaky and revised their opinions but the older opinions are still in print, available and read. True, they didn't change their opinion of this version, but the older fell into proper perspective...Cinema History and rather dry history at that. While this version is not a classic it remains good entertainment. Compare it to "How The West Was Won" made by the same studio just a few years later.
