摘要

在電影《受難記》中，梅爾．吉勃逊描述了耶穌基督受難的整個過程，作品十分真實且相當震撼人心。本片不僅描述耶穌基督生命中最後十二小時遭受到大祭司該雅法與羅馬總督比拉多的不公平審判與士兵的殘酷施暴，也透過回溯技巧使觀眾了解耶穌基督的一生，其生平教義與其受難意義。本論文重點在於探討此部作品的回溯技巧，指出梅爾．吉勃逊如何透過今昔對照反映人物背景與生平，人性與神性，罪行與悔悟等。

In ”The Passion of the Christ”, Mel Gibson presents Christ's Passion, the time when he is crucified after suffering the unjust trial and bitter torture of both Caiaphas and Pilate. In this film, Gibson does not just present the last twelve hours of Christ's life but through a serious of flashbacks, he does very well convey to the audience Christ's life, his teachings, and the meaning of his Passion. The purpose of this paper is to see how Gibson achieves this purpose through adopting flashbacks.
