《不准调头》
不是电影专业出身的人,从来没有拍过一部作品的人,写这么一本书,总差点意思。张秋的《不准掉头:世界电影大师的救赎之旅》是一本以“救赎”为主线的电影相关书籍。
该书选择救赎作为总引线,从伯格曼、布烈松、安东尼奥尼、基耶斯洛夫斯基、特吕弗等十位电影大师处挖掘了人性中极具普遍意义的十个“救赎母题”,如囚困、焦虑、孤独、迷茫、欲望等。书中融合了大师情感的经历与体验、人格的形成与演变、思想的传承与呼应、艺术的勾连与探索,以及对其相关作品及其心理动因的解读。它把电影大师的人生经历、电影观点和电影故事本身糅杂一起,既有对电影大师的正确解读,又有精彩电影的故事叙述,既不是单纯的专业电影书,也不是单纯的资料索引书,而是可以作为读者感受电影故事魅力和影迷了解大师及按图索骥寻找好碟的准工具书。"No U-Turn: The Redemption Journey of World Film Masters" by Zhang Qiu
"No U-Turn: The Redemption Journey of World Film Masters" by Zhang Qiu is a film-related book centered on the theme of "redemption".
Taking redemption as the core thread, the book explores ten "redemption motifs" of universal significance in human nature from ten world-renowned film masters, including Ingmar Bergman, Robert Bresson, Michelangelo Antonioni, Krzysztof Kieślowski, and François Truffaut. These motifs include imprisonment, anxiety, loneliness, confusion, desire, and more.
The book integrates the masters' emotional experiences, the formation and evolution of their personalities, the inheritance and resonance of their thoughts, the connection and exploration in their art, as well as the interpretation of their relevant works and the psychological motivations behind them. It combines the film masters' life experiences, their views on film, and the stories of their films themselves.
It is neither a purely professional film book nor a mere reference guide. Instead, it serves as a quasi-reference book for readers to experience the charm of film stories, and for film fans to understand these masters and find excellent films (or film discs) by following the clues provided in the book.
