非常喜欢影片的呈现方式,观众可以和男主一样在失忆中摸索过往的线索。就故事情节来说依然很诺兰,迂回曲折。再最后,对记忆和意义、身体和意识之间的关系探讨本身也蛮有意思的,男主身体力行embodied disposition,用习惯定位自己的失忆生活。(正好本周在看bourdieu)

A Fragment of Empire (1929) Douban
Обломок империи
director: 弗雷德里克·厄姆勒 actor: 费奥多尔·尼基金 / 露德米拉·谢米奥诺娃
other title: 帝国的碎片 / Обломок империи
Described by historian Paul Rotha as "the epitome of the Soviet propaganda film, realized with extraordinary skill of technical achievement", Fragment of an Empire was the first important film effort by director Frederick Ermler. Combining documentary techniques with straight dramatic narrative, the film focuses on a sergeant in the army of the Czar who loses track of his lovely wife. By the time he's discovered that his bride has re-married to an aristocrat, the sergeant has experienced a political epiphany, disdaining Imperialism in favor of the burgeoning Bolshevist movement. The protagonist's turnaround is counterpointed with spectacular shots of growing social unrest throughout Russia. American film critics, traditionally resistant to propaganda films in the early 1930s, felt that Fragment of an Empire contained enough of the "popular" elements to enjoy a successful U.S. release.

艺术手法大赞。感觉是我见过对意识流最好的演绎,可能也是默片的特点吧,抛弃了语言反而能快速地在意识影响情绪之间流转。很多时候镜头的定格都像是油画一样。但是对苏联体制唱赞歌的意图太明显了,最后看到列宁文选就决定不揍人了我都看不下去了。不过生活在有另类选项的时代也挺好的。

Wish You Were Here Douban
9.5 (356 ratings) Pink Floyd genre: Rock
release date 1975-01-01 publisher: EMI
20分钟的歌曲再加上 "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 所组成的这部专辑依旧是根系于他们早期的 "Atom Heart Mother Suite" 和 "Echoes" 等这些作品,但我们宁愿看到另一种 Pink Floyd 的音乐风格。"Shine On You Crazy Diamond" 的歌词完全是在赞美与称颂 Barrett 的聪明以及作为对其后来的隐退发出的一曲挽歌。整首歌曲由9段组成,而专辑选用了前面的5首片段作为整部专辑的开篇。对于该曲你往往最先可能被 Gilmour 忧伤的吉他主奏所打动,不过贯穿全曲的确是 Wright 有史以来最出色的键盘演奏,当然萨克斯演奏家 Dick Parry 如同在 Dark Side 中一样做了精彩的表演;而后面的4首片段则作为专辑的结束曲,伴随着风声以及David Gilmour 吉他的咆哮声和他的呐喊声中开始,并最终在波涛汹涌般的键盘声中逐渐结束整部专辑。本来该曲是作为一个整体演出的,但在1975年却被一分为二了。毫无疑问的是,这首歌曲就是针对并间接地回顾了 Pink Floyd 音乐历程上的第一个变故 —— 乐团创史人 Syd Barrett 中途离开乐队。1975年7月5日,当乐队录制完毕而进行混音制作阶段工作的时候,有一个陌生人来到录音室外面默默地看着里面工作的乐队成员,他就是 Syd Barrett。可惜当时他并不知道这部专辑就是题献给他的,在匆忙一瞥后,人们从此再也没在公共场合见到他。
在 VSC3 合成器极富规律的伴奏下,伴随着重复回声的组合引出了 "Welcome To The Machine" 开头的那部分音节,由此开始了一个针对当时音乐圈中广泛存在的“对金钱的追逐超过了对音乐制作创新的追求”现象的辛辣的讽刺,而将歌手 Roy Harper 引入并演唱 "Have A Cigar" 则似乎是 Waters 的耻辱,但当时在录制此曲的时候,本应担任主唱的 Waters 嗓子出了问题而无法正常演唱,刚巧他的朋友 Roy Harper 也同期在同一录音室录制别的作品,于是 Waters 便请他的朋友演唱了这首对唱片录音工业辛辣讽刺的歌曲,不过后来 Waters 对这个决定也无不抱怨说“not because he did it badly...it just isn't us anymore”。歌曲里面有一句歌词“Which one's Pink?”其实来自于一位对他们一无所知的美国唱片公司董事询问乐队时愚蠢的提问,后来在演唱会上,Waters 将这句话印到自己的T恤上。
唱片的标题曲 WISH YOU WERE HERE 同样也是针对 Syd Barrett,但也是 Roger Waters 对于徘徊在乐队成功的四周围的贪婪所进行的斗争中所感受到的紧张感,而根植于贯穿 Wish You Were Here 专辑中所体现出来的那种觉醒的主题不断的滋生发展并最终在后来的 The Wall 中萌发壮大。古典/爵士小提琴手 Stephane Grapelli 参加了该曲的录制,也就是全曲结束时那几个小节的风声的合成音响效果的录音。而歌曲的管弦乐片段其实是截取于 Tchaikovsky 的第四交响曲的录音。本曲以后成为乐队巡回演唱会上的保留曲目,即使是 Waters 离开乐队后,无论乐团还是他依旧喜欢在各自的演出中演唱它。
WISH YOU WERE HERE 专辑于75年9月27日进入美国排行榜并名列12位,并于10月4日升至榜首。而在英国,发行后第一周便荣登榜首,不过这要感谢提前预售的25万张唱片的功劳。Wish 专辑也是在他们离开了与之合作多年的 Capitol 唱片公司,并自组 Pink Floyd Music 公司后制作的第一部作品,另外他们将其作品改委由 Columbia 唱片公司发行而不是老东家EMI公司了。或许是因为上一张作品反映太好,它多少显得这张专辑有些失色,乐评家的评论甚至也仅以“了无长进”一笔带过。现在回过头来看这张唱片,虽然具有一定程度的商业化倾向的表现,但在音乐创作的本质上,它仍然够资格称得上是一张质量均佳的好作品。
这张专辑在滚石杂志选出的500张历代最强专辑中排名第209位。

Sidewalk Douban Goodreads
Sidewalk
author: Mitchell Duneier / Ovie Carter publishing house: Farrar, Straus and Giroux 2000 - 12
An exceptional ethnography marked by clarity and candor, Sidewalk takes us into the socio-cultural environment of those who, though often seen as threatening or unseemly, work day after day on “the blocks” of one of New York’s most diverse neighborhoods. Sociologist Duneier, author of Slim’s Table, offers an accessible and compelling group portrait of several poor black men who make their livelihoods on the sidewalks of Greenwich Village selling secondhand goods, panhandling, and scavenging books and magazines.
Duneier spent five years with these individuals, and in Sidewalk he argues that, contrary to the opinion of various city officials, they actually contribute significantly to the order and well-being of the Village. An important study of the heart and mind of the street, Sidewalk also features an insightful afterword by longtime book vendor Hakim Hasan. This fascinating study reveals today’s urban life in all its complexity: its vitality, its conflicts about class and race, and its surprising opportunities for empathy among strangers.

我觉得既然库布里克没拍后面三部科幻小说,就不能加上科幻小说的前因后果来理解这个片。喜欢里面长时间呼吸的运用,前面的猩猩,还有音乐。黑石碑我觉得似乎不像是触发了人类发展而更像是人类变化的见证。还有,有没有人像我一样傻傻地以为这个片是2001年拍的.....
