当代独立电影之底层镜像和叙事文本

The Underlying Mirror Image and Narrative Text of Contem-porary Independent Film

从20世纪90年代后期至今,许多具有独立影像和叙事风格的剧情电影广受关注。这些作品大多获得重要的电影奖项,如戛纳电影节、柏林电影节、圣丹斯电影节等的相关奖项,以及英国电影学院奖等。有别于男性英雄主义的宏大叙事,这些带有明显的独立电影风格的作品以普通(底层)男性生活、情感境况为主题,进一步丰富了性别话语表达的类型。就影像的文学文本而论,这些作品能够引发另一个根本性的话题,即影像与文学共生共荣,而后者则更深沉、更有力量。这可能会对电影作者提供有益的启示。

From the late 1990s to the present,many feature films with independent images and narrative styles have attracted wide attention.Most of these works have won major film awards,such as Cannes Film Festival,Berlin Film Festival,British Academy Film Awards,Sundance Film Festival,etc.Different from the grand narrative of male heroism,these works with obvious independent film style take the life and emotional situation of ordinary(bottom)men as the theme,and further enrich the types of gender discourse expression.From the literary text theory of image,these works can trigger another fundamental topic:image and literature coexist,while the latter is deeper and more powerful.This may be instructive to film writers.
