甜蜜表层下的精神错乱症——费里尼《甜蜜的生活》解读

Mental Disorder Below the Surface of Sweetness——Interpreting the Film La Dolce Vita Directed by Fellini

在《甜蜜的生活》中,费里尼以客观、冷静的记录镜头揭示了物质文明下的精神失衡。影片就像一幅壁画,展现了一个崩溃性的灾难,嘲讽了罗马上流社会的精神堕落、道德沦丧,又批判了底层社会狂热的宗教信仰和麻木的精神状态。生活的本质是苦涩的,甜蜜的表层下隐藏着一个个孤独的个体,奢华的物质生活中处处飘荡着空虚颓废的精神魂灵。

In the film La Dolce Vita, Fellini uncovers unbalanced spirit in material civilization with an objective and dispassionate camera. Like a wall painting, the film presents a collapsed disaster, sneers at the mental degradation and moral depravity of the upper class in Rome, and criticizes the fanatical religious beliefs and apathetic mental state of people at the bottom. As life is bitter in na- ture, lonely individuals are hidden beneath the sweet surface, decadent and empty souls floating everywhere in luxurious material life.
