浅谈电影中人类意识的觉醒

Initial Discussion of the Wakening of Human Consciousness in Films

电影作为现代化大工业的产物和一种超越种族和语种的人类叙事,天生就是人类意识最好的表达工具。本文试从科幻电影、战争电影、探讨人与自然关系的电影三个层面介绍当代电影中与文学创作一脉相承而又独具特色的“人类意识”的表现,并指出中国电影在“地球村时代”弥补创作中“人类意识”的缺失、拓宽视野的必要性。

As a product of modern industry, and as a kind of narration beyond races or languages, movies are bound to be the best medium that expresses human consciousness. This paper attempts to introduce to readers, via three types of movies, i. e. science - fiction movies, movies of war and movies unveiling relations between mankind and nature, how human consciousness is uniquely manifested in contemporary movies, which is likewise reflected but expressed differently in literary works. In addition, the paper points out that it is highly necessary for Chinese movie makers to make up for lack of human consciousness in their creations and to broaden their vision in this era of ' Global Village'.
