電影作品《末日的房間》創作論述
A Critique Essay on the Film Work “Panic Room”
摘要
瑪雅預言 2012 年 12 月 21 日是人類的世界末日,在此之前,已有無數的類似預 言出現,並被證實是一場又一場的謊言。電視上充斥各式各樣有關於世界末日的話 題,電影音樂及漫畫小說也有各式各樣關於末日題材的創作。 一個失意懦弱的男子,因為誤信闖入家中的三名騙子預告的世界末日宣言,進而轉 變為積極,要在末日之前挽回他失去的一段關係。 人們對於世界末日之說,大抵上以相不相信區分為兩類族群。如果你相信,你 該面對生活?如果你不相信,你又該如何過下去?作者希望藉由本片探討兩件事 情。一、人類對於世界末日的態度,二、人與人之間的信任。 有人會相信世界末日,源自於他不夠相信自已。不相信自己,就沒有勇氣做有 把握的事情。集體的不相信,塑造了集體的恐懼與憂患意識。有許多人是在這種半 信半疑的狀態下去把握當下,但也有許多人在這種狀態下被許多事情蒙蔽。 劇本以神經喜劇的類型發展,用荒謬的劇情表演及妙語如珠的台詞,來暗諷現 實生活中人類對於世界末日的盲目。希望這部影片在有趣好笑之外,能夠產生正面 力量,讓此時此刻還活著的我們,對未來更有信心。
並列摘要
"Panic Room" is a comedy directed by the author who also worked as a co-screenwriter with Yu-ChenLin, the creator of the original story. Mayan fable predicted that December 21, 2012 is the end of the world. Previously, numerous similar predictions had been made and proved to be lies one after another. Various of topics discussing doomsday are filled with TVs. Movies, music and comic novels are also created with the theme of doomsday. The story was about a frustrated manturned positive after mistakenly believed the doomsday declaration made by three liars broke into his house. He gave up the opportunity to be salved and tried to retrieve a relationship before the doomsday. In the theory of the doomsday, people are divided into two crowds, believe or not. If you believe it, how would you face your life? And if not, how would you make your life go on? The author hopes to explore two things by the film, the attitude toward doomsday and the trust between people. The author believes that the reason people believe doomsday derives from the lack of confidence in their own. You would not have courage to do uncertain things without confidence. Collective misbelief leads to collective fear and urgency. There aremany people seize the moment under this dubious circumstances while the others are blinded by many things. The script appears as a nervous comedy, innuendos humans’ blindness in doomsday by absurd drama performances and witty lines. Despite interesting and inspiring, we hope this film can provide positive forceto let us have more confidence in the future.
