無主之城 City of God
2 jul 12:00noon
巴西 Brazil / 2002 / 130 mins /
葡萄牙語對白,中英文字幕 In Portuguese with English and Chinese Subtitles
導演 Dir: 費茲度 梅維里斯 Fernando Meirelles
演員 Cast: Alexandre Rodrigues, Leandro Frimino da Hora, Phellipe Haagensen

八十年代的里約熱內盧,建成二十多年的上帝之城早已變成龍蛇混雜的貧民窟。從少年Rocket的眼中,我們見證了貧窮才是真諦,貪婪、毒品、暴力方為生活真滋味。根據里約熱內盧六七十年代個案改編的劇本,令電影張力無限。精采的攝影以及一眾非職業演員的自然演出,更是影片震撼的主要來源。導演新作《無國界追兇》一樣神采飛揚。

Rocket narrates our journey into the slums of Rio de Janeiro, the City of God. A child of the 60s, he witnesses two decades of barbarity, greed, rape and revenge which fuel a catastrophic gang war. For all its whiz-bang camerawork and outrageous entertainment value, the movie is grounded by its true-life origins and the superb performances of a largely non-professional cast recruited from the streets.

 

下流.少年 Mean Creek
9 jul 12:30pm
美國 USA / 2004 / 90 mins /
英語對白,中文字幕 In English with Chinese Subtitles
導演 Dir: 積及艾洛艾迪斯Jacob Aaron Estes
演員 Cast: 洛利高堅Rory Culkin, 卓華摩根Trevor Morgan, 史葛米曹域士Scott Mechlowicz

每個班房上都有一位技安,每位大雄都想找機會做一次技安。可是有誰想過技安的蝦蝦霸霸只是用來掩飾其孤單寂寞的保護色?本片就是這樣的一個關於道德的故事:一個暑假,一次划艇,一次意外,註成了一個彌補不了的錯。但面對錯,片中的少年選擇逃避掩飾……被喻為廿年前的《伴我同行》,今趟兒童的世界也不比成人世界來得簡單,請不要再駝鳥地要把之簡化罷。

Revenge is anything but sweet in MEAN CREEK, a haunting morality tale from debut writer/director Jacob Aaron Estes. Deciding it's time that bully George received some payback, pint-sized punchbag Sam and his brother Rocky lure the troublemaker on a boat trip designed to leave him stripped and stranded. But on the river things start to look a lot less black and white - and it's the shades of grey that make this much more than just another teen movie.

 

四百擊 The 400 Blows
16 jul 12:30pm
法國 France / 1959 / 99mins /
法語對白,中英文字幕 In French with English and Chinese Subtitles
導演 Dir: 法蘭索瓦杜魯福François Truffaut
演員 Cast: Jean-Pierre Léaud, Claire Maurier, Albert Rémy

每個人的成長階段,都有一齣《四百擊》。少年安坦的煩惱,在杜魯福忠實真摰的刻劃下打動了全世界。「壞孩子」的形成,不就是成年人的冷漠淡泊的惡果。片中的安坦拼命逃離欲綑綁他的枷鎖,海洋究竟是堀頭路還是新世界?安坦凝望鏡頭欲尋答案,觀眾卻因純真的消逝而頓感心痛。掀起法國電影新浪潮的重要作品。

Francçois Truffaut's modern classic takes an uncompromising, non-judgmental look at several key events in the life of teenager Antoine Doinel. Antoine is a juvenile delinquent, yet his life could have taken a turn for the better at any time had someone shown an interest in him. He is a victim of his circumstances, which are framed by neglect. THE 400 BLOWS is a portrait of innocence lost, and we'll never forget Antoine's gaze at the camera at the end.

 

壞孩子 Evil
23 jul 12:15pm
瑞典 Sweden / 2005 / 113 mins /
瑞典語及芬蘭語對白,中英文字幕In Swedish and Finnish with English and Chinese Subtitles
導演 Dir: 萬克爾希夫斯敦Mikael Håfström
演員 Cast: 安哲亞德斯威遜Andreas Wilson, 古斯達夫史嘉斯格Gustaf Skarsgård, 漢域隆斯敦Henrik Lundström

16歲的艾力解決問題的方式向來是以暴易暴,但「暴」亦有道,艾力秉承「人不犯我,我不犯人」態度。但在寄宿學校,仿如活在另一個邪惡世界,舊生以種種不成文規定欺壓新生。舊生一再挑釁,更禍及同房好友,艾力終決定放棄原則,以單人匹馬對抗整個制度……若艾力是壞孩子,那麼他的嚴父與建制便是百分百魔鬼。奧斯卡最佳外語片提名。

Swedish tale of playground bullying. EVIL is the story of Erik, a misfit who's shipped off to a posh boarding school where a school council of bullying seniors dish out rough justice to any pupils who step out of line. Making the most out of the class warfare elements of Jan Guillou's autobiographical novel, EVIL also sets up a fierce metaphorical battle against fascist oppression in 50s Sweden.

 

青春殘酷物語 Cruel Story of Youth
30 jul 12:30pm
日本Japan / 1960 / 96 mins /
日語對白,中英文字幕 In Japanese with English and Chinese Subtitles
導演 Dir: 大島渚Nagisha Oshima
演員 Cast: 川津佑介Yusuke Kawazu, 桑野見雪Miyuki Kuwano, 渡邊文雄Fumio Watanabe


如果把導演比喻作廚師,那大島渚的拿手好菜就肯定是勁辣地獄拉麵。四十多年前已經赤條條血淋淋地把人性的陰暗面藉一對男女的扭曲關係一語道破。放諸戰後日本的時代背景,更不難感受片中所迸發出來的憤怒和反抗情緒。真琴和阿清的悲情,反映了導演對無可挽回的青春既悲哀無奈又憤怒彷徨的心態。

Deeply rooted in the dynamic socio-political climate of post-occupation Japanese society, CRUEL STORY OF YOUTH is a stylistically bold, incisive, and provocative examination of hopelessness, victimization, apathy, exploitation, and cultural alienation. The story of Makoto and Kiyoshi is the epitome of a generation/nation's aimlessness, moral bankruptcy and loss of innocence.
