简介:HBO电视电影《烛台背后》入围第66届戛纳电影节主竞赛单元。该片根据名人传记改编,主人公李勃拉齐(迈克尔·道格拉斯 Michael Douglas 饰)是20世纪50~70年代好莱坞家喻户晓的钢琴艺术家,不但演出费用高居世界之冠,而且以极尽华冶艳丽的造型获得了“闪耀之王 ”的舞台称号。他从不承认自己是同性恋并为此打过多起名誉官司,但在晚年却不得不与22岁的男助手兼保镖斯科特(马特·达蒙 Matt Damon 饰)对簿公堂。后者声称与他有着5年的地下情并主张天价的抚养费,该事件引发了美国娱乐圈的地震。双方后来选择庭外和解,次年李勃拉齐因艾滋病发症去世。  电影从斯科特与李勃拉齐的相遇开始。初见面斯科特即被李勃拉齐出神入化的钢琴演奏所迷倒,而李勃拉齐一句挑逗“这一定是命运”让两人火速定情。在无需面对公众的时候,他们就像普通情侣那样如胶似漆,过着童话般的奢华生活。然而斯科特获得了女人们求而不得的爱情和物质保证,却注定得不到一纸身份证明。这样的遗憾不仅是时代偏见造成的,也有李勃拉齐自私和刚愎的原因。最终两人因此而决裂,一代巨星的隐秘地下生活变成现实中被公众观摩的巨幕肥皂剧,一份真心付出的爱情最终输给极力掩上的柜门......

简介:This 1992 Japanese film tells the story of a scientist who sets out to create the new "super Adam and Eve", humans who cannot be controlled by their emotions. Of course, the end result it not exactly what the good doctor expects.  comments from imdb:  This modern tale of an attempt to build a creature is one of the best "horror" films ever made, even if its not a horror film but something else entirely. Certainly its on my short list of all time great films.  This film was introduced to me by someone who told me "I have this film that probably one of the best films you'll ever see. It will move you and touch you and make you think, but if I told you what it is and told you how its done you will think its the stupidest thing on the face of it and you won't watch it." Intrigued I asked what did he mean, and he said, "Well its a Frankenstein story, with a very goofy sort of edge, but which uses it to its advantage." My ears perked up, and I being a trusting soul took the tape and watched it. I was blown away.  The plot concerns a mad scientist attempting to make a new Adam and Eve in the wake of a suicidal plague that is ravaging the world. Locked up in his lab his experiments go differently then either he or we expect. Some of it is silly (The bolts in the neck, the wrestling moves...), all of it is touching and thought provoking.  I can not recommend this movie enough. If you are willing to take the film on its terms and allow it to tell its story then I urge you to seek this film out and see it. This is an undiscovered gem that will stay with you forever.  15 out of 10 and then some. 10/10  Also known as "The Last Frankenstein", this is an extraordinary, impeccably produced horror film. Director Takeshi Kawamura uses Mary Shelley's novel as a mere launching pad for an exploration of subjects as diverse and fascinating as the nature of love, desire, suicide, mass hypnosis, sex, alienation and jealousy.  And though the film is dense with subtext, it is also stunningly photographed and rich in atmosphere and detail. The performances are all amazing and Kawamura's sensitive handling of the strange, delicate relationships between the characters results in an emotionally charged, angst-ridden tragedy.  The scenes of the confused, troubled monster hurtling through a fog-shrouded forest at night are memorable and striking, as is a brilliant home movie-style montage of the film's more curious characters enjoying a precious afternoon at the beach. Kawamura creates resonating visual poetry of horror and sadness barely sighted since Todd Browning's classic "Freaks".  Intelligent, emotional, tragic and real, this is an absolute gem. 9/10
