不寻常的美国 L'Amérique insolite (1961) 导演: François Reichenbach 编剧: 弗朗索瓦·莱兴巴赫 主演: June Richmond 类型: 纪录片 制片国家/地区: 法国 语言: 法语 上映日期: 1961-09-22 片长: France: 90 分钟 又名: 美国春光(港) / America As Seen by a Frenchman IMDb: tt0140808 20世纪50年代末,著名的法国纪录片制作人François Reichenbach(F for Fake,Portrait:Orson Welles)花了18个月的时间在美国旅行,记录了美国不同的地区、居民和娱乐活动。其结果是,《法国人眼中的美国》是一次开阔的——甚至可能是天真的——穿越众多不同的美洲的旅程,通过法国人的感性过滤,对一种既熟悉又完全陌生的文化进行了引人入胜的探索。 监狱牛仔竞技表演;美国小姐选美比赛;参观迪士尼乐园和脱衣舞学校;一个只有双胞胎居住的小镇;孵化器里的一排排新生儿,就像流水线上的产品一样——所有这些奇怪而奇妙的景象,以及更多,都是赖兴巴赫的相机在异想天开的叙述(由让·谷克多等人提供)和已故伟大的米歇尔·勒格兰(Une femme est Une femme)的欢快乐谱的帮助下,无条件地捕捉到的。 《一个法国人眼中的美国》以其母语命名为“L'Amérique insiste”,字面意思是“不寻常的美国”,它深情地描绘了大约二十世纪中叶美国人的各种怪癖,并证明了一句古老的谚语,即现实真的比小说更奇怪。 At the end of the 1950s, celebrated French documentarian François Reichenbach (F for Fake, Portrait: Orson Welles), whose lens captured the likes of Brigitte Bardot and Johnny Hallyday, spent eighteen months travelling the United States, documenting its diverse regions, their inhabitants and their pastimes. The result, America As Seen by a Frenchman, is a wide-eyed – perhaps even naïve – journey through a multitude of different Americas, filtered through a French sensibility and serving as a fascinating exploration of a culture that is both immediately familiar and thoroughly alien. Prison rodeos; Miss America pageants; visits to Disneyland and a school for striptease; a town inhabited solely by twins; rows of newborns in incubators, like products on an assembly line – all these weird and wondrous sights, and more, are captured, sans jugement, by Reichenbach’s camera, aided by whimsical narration (provided by, among others, Jean Cocteau) and a jaunty musical score by the late, great Michel Legrand (Une femme est une femme). Titled L’Amérique insolite – literally “unusual America” – in its native tongue, America As Seen by a Frenchman lovingly renders the various eccentricities of Americana circa the mid-twentieth century, and proves the old adage that reality really is stranger than fiction. 迅雷网盘 / BT|America.as.Seen.by.a.Frenchman.1960.Arrow.1080p.BluRay.x265.HEVC.FLAC(7.27GB).mkv |
