活着2014

因为看过西语版本的小说兴致勃勃跑来看了翻拍的电影，可能是因为已经仔细阅读了原著，看电影时居然有一种神圣的感觉，像是沿着一条breadcrumb一点点拾掇着原著里的情节。
总体来说，可能画面注定没有文字与生俱来的细腻感，再加上时间限制，电影里的心理活动相比起原著里丝丝入扣的描写明显平淡许多。然而原著里突出的情节在电影里都得到了很好的还原，比如年轻时代朋克风的爸爸妈妈，热爱iggy pop的泰迪小弟，摇滚风的亚当和大提琴家米娅。正如米娅自己说的，是大提琴造就了自己，虽然让她觉得与家庭成员毫不一致，但是也让她感受到了爸爸无私的爱，为了米娅极高的天赋，他选择放弃了乐队。正如他说，有时候，牺牲是必要的。
最后米娅还是在挣扎中醒来，或许是爷爷的释然，或许是好友的鼓励，又或许是亚当的挽留和吉他，总之，醒来后的生活确实是大变样，不过，一切都会好起来的，不是吗？
最后表白男主，青涩的脸庞简直是少女心扑通，玩音乐果真是大大的魅力加分项。

We, grown-ups, seems to be stubbornly convinced that young adult stories are stupid, and only teenagers themselves will be silly enough to fall in love with this kind of "so-called" romantic novels.
For that we already knew the transitory characteristic of love. We understand it, crystal clear, right from the beginning of the film that their love story might not even live through the winter, they are not going to survive the long distance after high school, not to mention that the post-traumatic stress our heroine must deal with as long as she wake up after the car accident(, though this is the story in its sequel 'Where She Went'). We know that, time itself might bring an end to the relationship between this young man and this young woman.

But, is it not the most beautiful part of every teenager love story, or of puberty? What make those young children, those teenager boys and girls so attracting is that they take their pure love, their approaching departure, their breakup as this important that their hearts are tortured by whips for thousands of times. The pain is all that matters, that hurts, that suffocates, and they think they will never get through this. They struggle, they quarrel, they cry, they reconcile with each other, as love and pain remains the only theme of their adolescence.

They do not know now, but they will understand it one day, that all these love and pain, joy and suffering will become a memory with bitter sweets or even a memory with no colour, a memory that brings back no sensation. However, this never counteract the real experience they are right now undergoing. All these hurts, all these emotions, all these tears are once so real, that almost break their hearts or already broke them. They live in drama, not because they are affected, but their lives are filled with dramatic conflicts.

Not until the puberty ends, along with the death of drama, will these whole true life-play come to a termination.
Then, teenage love, which is so void but sincere, dies alongside with it.

        你评价一部电影的好坏是什么？
        我的很简单，笑点能让我发自内心的笑，哭点能让我潸然泪下，同时不摁快进键，即使知道结局。

        如果知道女主角是贝家大公子的绯闻女友，估计看片的时候会有更多的挑剔，就像你习惯给熟悉的人更多的挑剔，给陌生人更多的宽容。当然，喜欢这部电影并不是因为对陌生主角的宽容，而是它真的让我情不自禁的流泪。

        串联全片的是女主的爱情故事，才气男友最后也不离不弃，但最能拨动泪腺的是为数不多展现亲情的镜头。全神贯注听小女儿演奏大提琴的爸爸，放弃了自己的摇滚；宽慰失恋女儿的潇洒妈妈；还有在病床前慈祥而又坚毅的爷爷，“I want you to live.I want that more than anything in this world.I want you to fight like hell to stay with us.But with everybody else gone,I know it might be not what you want,It might be too hard for you to keep fighting,So if you wanna go,i want you to know it's ok. It's okay.I understand. ”

        在你成长的过程中一定想象过要是父母兄弟都离你而去的画面，你觉得是解脱的轻松吗？反正我是不寒而栗，不敢进一步想象。有父母在，就有永远是作为儿女的任性，有兄弟姐妹在，就知道总会有人与你嬉笑打闹共担风雨，所以当这一切都不在的时候，生比死反而需要更大的勇气。

        我相信女主角最后还是醒过来了，因为还有那么多人为她守候，慈祥坚毅的爷爷，不离不弃的男友，两肋插刀的朋友。
 
          她的前面还有窗，她的前面还有光。

         

      其实在我看来，一部影片最重要的并不是说她有多么好的特效来夺人眼球，而是它整个故事的完整性，好让你在看的时候不愿快进，在看完的时候又在脑中不断地回想，嘿，我想再往前倒退。
      由此这部影片便开始显得珍贵了，当你只想回看开头的那份报纸，就会跟亚当最后放弃演出一心回到米娅身边守护，又在阳台上懊悔不已的画面联系在一起；当你听完爷爷的那番话，你就想回看到当时爸爸卖掉自己心爱的鼓买回女儿大提琴时那脸上喜悦的笑……
      这是一部音乐贯穿始终的剧，也许很多人说故事老套，但我觉得很多学音乐的人都能有共鸣吧。为了米娅对音乐的热忱，所有家人的牺牲，家人的鼓励，到后来与男友亚当之间出现分歧，都让人不由回想，还记得温柔的父母在你学琴的那段岁月对你的爱之深、责之切么？
      不知为何，看完《星运里的错》和这部两部文艺片的预告片之后，还是首选了这部，可能也比较喜欢这部的演员吧。
      总之，看了一遍还想在看，心中总有一个地方漏跳了半拍。
     

这部影片用灵魂来讲述“选择”这个话题，很是值得一看。片中米娅一直都在回忆从前生活的点滴，以决定去留，许许多多的回忆以及亲人、闺密、男友在她病床前的言语，时时刻刻左右着她的想法。还好，最终爱情战胜了逃避，她男友的话让她下了决定，she stay !
不得不说，语言真是一把威力无穷的武器。言者无意，听者有心，闻者足戒！
