摘要

李昂「鹿城故事」系列小說中的〈西蓮〉在2005年由林正盛改編為電影《月光下，我記得》，而這其中涉及的不單是原作小說文本與改編電影文本之間的異同，包括文字與音像媒介的變異，還牽涉到女作家文本與男導演改編之間所衍生的性別政治議題。李昂從女性主義的觀點對《月光下，我記得》有所批判，表示原作小說與改編電影之間差異，最大的關鍵在於性別議題與場景移動，究竟《月光下，我記得》這部電影是如同李昂的指控與原著相差甚遠？還是藉由文本改編與電影語言上的行使，創造出比原著更深刻的論述空間呢？〈西蓮〉涉及母女之間世代的衝突，寓寄鹿城在李昂創作生涯的階段性意義，在女性鄉土想像中透露對性別、地方錯綜關係的反思，不過也展現出李昂於「女性鄉土想像」內部的矛盾與衝突。本文將以母女關係以及女性鄉土想像兩大主軸，來深入探討〈西蓮〉改編成《月光下，我記得》後在男性導演接受與詮釋上的偏重或是質變，以釐清電影改編中性別政治的重要議題，也有助於理解七○年代初期李昂從性別視角介入鄉土議題的描述策略與辯證思索。

In a collection of serial novels set in Lugang, the short story ”Xi Lian” has been adapted into a film entitled ”The Moon Also Rises” by the Taiwanese director Lin Cheng-sheng in 2005. However, the issue involves not only the media and content differences between the original story and the adapted film, but also the different sexual politics that the female writer and the male director present respectively. The writer Li Ang has openly argued that the similarities and differences between original story and adapted movies lie in the sex issues and plot modifications. Is the film that different from the original as to arouse Li Ang's arguement? Or does the film alternatively offer some insights for discussion by the usage film language than the original? The story ”Xi Lian” focuses on the generational conflict between mother and daughter and their living in Lugang. In Li Ang's novels, she implicates her thoughts of feminine regional imagination and its complex relationship with sex and locality, which also signifies Li Ang's writing career in Lugang. This paper intends to discuss the qualitative changes made in the adapted film by focusing on the mother-daughter relationship and feminine regional imagination as well as to clarify the sexual politics presented by Lin Cheng-sheng in the film. In contrast, the way how interpret Li Ang's descriptive strategy and dialectical thoughts from the prespective of sexual politics in the early 1970s.
