[闲聊]奥斯卡奖口水 (cont.)
A Place in the Sun 是美国悲剧改编的。Match Point 的基本element 都是美国悲剧里来的,算loosely based on ....但是woody allen 在编剧填的是自己,所以有资格被提名原创编剧。今年难道他们还给活地亚论提了个名, 可是Match Point怎么能是原创剧本呢? 明明是根据Dreiser的小说美国悲剧改编的, 过去还拍过个A Place in the Sun, 我还看过. 老小子是诚实地从来不理你好来无的岔, 今年不知又在哪家饭馆里吹黑管(小号?)了.
我觉得match point 挺好看的,但是太四平八稳,人物性格不够复杂,subplot 不够,对话不够有趣... 不够woody allen 。说白了一句话,俩名新丁都色艺双全,把热辣辣的诱惑的放射出来了,不然还不如closer .

Oh, I am not sure everybody loves Angelina Jolie.Everybody loves George.
He's like the male counterpart of Angelina Jolie.
Crash的制片人内部打起来是得奖之前的事了. Lions Gate那边的一个人告the motion picture acadamy是因为他们限制报上去的producers的人数, 所以得最佳影片奖就没他的份, 但是他认为自己应该算producer之一. 同时这个人自己也被告了, 而告他的就是报上了名的Cathy Schulman. 原因好象是因为投资出大头和管发行的是Lions Gate, 所以现在分钱也是他们发. 别的五六个producers那时候基本上是不拿钱白干, 等片子出来后如果有红利再分. 但是Schulman那时候拿了工资, 现在Lions Gate就不想给她分利润了. 人家不干啊, 说我也一样是producer, 你该我一分红利. 大致上是这回事, 不知道是否还有其他人内讧.
学院嫌过去什么人都挂个producer的名, 所以限制成每部片子两个, 只准真干活的人上去. (窃以为他们不想制造发出太多小金人) 可是想Crash这种好来屋没人愿意投资的片子, 就得东拼西凑, 一大群人搞, 虽然加拿大的Lions Gate是出钱的, 却连名也挂不上, 更别提其他出力的人了.

还有NPR也很会八卦. 说一个从那里听来的关于Truman Capote的事儿.
据说文学界一直有谣言说To Kill a Mocking Bird不是Nell Harper Lee写的而是Capote捉刀的作品. 最近有人翻出一封信, 是Capote写给他姨妈的, 里面说起他读了To Kill a Mocking Bird的手稿, 觉得很出色云云, 一字未提自己捉刀或者修改的事, 基本上进一步证明小说是Harper Lee自己的作品.
我一听就觉得奇怪, 怎么会有这样的谣言? 按Capote那么自我中心的性格, 恨不得时刻生活在众人拥戴的电灯泡下面, 怎么可能甘心匿名让朋友(纯友谊哦)占去荣誉? 结果NPR问的史学家立刻证实了我的想法 -- To Kill a Mocking Bird获得Pulitzer, 那是Capote一生孜孜以求的荣誉, 他的个性和名声都立刻推翻代笔的说法, 而且小说的口气/风格跟Capote自己的口气完全不一样, 但跟Harper Lee之前写的短篇一样一样, 本来就是没有争议的事. 据说这个谣言还是Capote自己在接受某记者采访是暗示, 被记者转手倒卖出来的.
这种毫无根据, 毫无逻辑的谣言, 连我这样没读过Harper Lee的人用脚指都能想出来, 竟然在文学界生生不息, 倒也奇了. 可见再高等的教育和文化也治不好愚蠢和充满偏见的脑子.

顺手贴一篇不太搭界的报道,
Taming 'Tiger' on stage
Weinsteins acquire rights to Wang's 'Crane' series
By IAN MOHR
Bob and Harvey WeinsteinHarvey Weinstein are planning to bring a legitlegit version of martial arts pic "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon""Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" to the stage, and are also developing the five books that encompass "Tiger" as a film franchise of three prequels and a sequel.
The sibs have acquired worldwide rights to develop and produce a stage adaptation of Chinese author Wang Du Lu's "Crane -- Iron Pentalogy," a series of tomes that includes "Tiger" as its fourth installment.
"Tiger" would serve as the first planned legit production to be culled from the book series. Harvey Weinstein said that he envisions the project as a "combination spectacle and musical with a cohesive (storyline)."
He added that the stage version would be akin to "Cirque du Soleil with a pronounced narrative, featuring the greatest martial artists."
The original "Crane -- Iron" books comprise five martial arts novels that follow the adventures of three generations of related protagonists during the Qing dynasty. Titles include "Crane Frightens KunLun," "Precious Sword," "Golden Hairpin," "Sword Spirit, Pearl Light," "Tiger" and "Iron Knight, Silver Vase."
As for the films, the projects would be Chinese language, and Weinstein said he would like to approach original "Tiger" helmer Ang Lee and producer Bill Kong about coming on board. "Tiger" would not be remade as part of the series, and the Weinsteins have not chosen which book would serve as the basis for the first project.

thumbsucker
周六晚上看了thumbsucker,可是真的不是我那杯茶,1个半小时的电影,让我们觉得有3个小时那么长,到了最后,终于松了口气,总算完了。
里面名人不少,jun的偶像之一那个Vincent 啥啥啥,还有Vince Vaughn,benjamin bratt, 对了,还有木美人基努,可是归根结底我没看懂的是该片子到底要说的是啥,是怎么克服吮拇指还是什么?片子里的各式情节,通过吃药来刺激成绩,通过编故事来申请大学,和女朋友一起吸大麻,我统统没有共鸣,大概这就是所谓的文化差异吧。关于基努,不觉得他有啥精彩表演在里面,一贯的木头脸,自从matrix后就没变过,如果抽烟算突破的话,他在里面吸了2支(可这个他在康斯坦丁里面吸得更多)。
说到这个Vince Vaughn,我们周六中午开车出去在路口等绿灯的时候看到前面一辆车上后面几个大字“BEEP IF YOU LOVE VINCE VAUGHN",领导说,这个人这么喜欢凡高啊,我赶紧卖弄最近八卦学习心得,教育领导该人不是画家是演员,是小珍的新男友

啊,对,最近喝茶听来一个消息,Silver Spring有个电影院,放旧片子,据说大厅装潢成旧电影院的样子,非常浪漫。本周在放梦露专辑,已经放了Some like it hot,今天要放七年之痒。

AFI in Silver Spring is fantastic. The only inconvenience is parking. They have all kinds of good stuff played all the time. Highly recommended. I saw The Red Circle there a few years ago. Gosh I miss Maryland.
The Landmark theater in Bethesda plays "semi-independent" movies. It has a very small store front by the French restaurant. The theater is entirely underground. Their tickets are expensive and matinee ($7 or $7.50) only applies to the first show of the day. So if you go after work you have to pay 9 bucks. I just wait for DVD to come out at local library most of the time.
