《我是路人甲》小人物也有大夢想

　　本日口譯文章：《我是路人甲》 小人物也有大妄想

　　“妄想”這個詞，咱們大概會頻仍地從娛樂界的生齒入耳到。在這個圈子裏，每小我都盼望站在聚光燈下，成為被他人存眷的大人物。但殘暴的究竟是，大多半人到頭來照樣冷靜無聞。香港導演爾冬升的最新片子《我是路人甲》報告的便是追尋影視夢的無名之輩們的故事。

　　為了確保片子的精確性，爾冬升花了三年時光來制造這部由暫時演員做主演的片子。他做了普遍的采訪，凝聽了1000多個“橫漂”的故事，然後把他聽到的故事融會在了腳本裏。

　　在影片中，東北小夥萬國鵬懷揣著1000塊錢分開故鄉到號稱“中國好萊塢”的橫店追尋成為一位演員的妄想。在實際生存中，當這位樸素勤懇的年青小夥被導演看中來主演這部片子的時刻，他滿身左右只剩下20塊錢。只管如斯，他從未想過要廢棄。

　　香港有名演員梁朝偉在為《我是路人甲》撰寫的影評中回想：30年前，我還只是一個傾銷員，但我曉得這不是我想要的生存。“萬國鵬就像昔時的我……我是在進入練習班以後，才發明這是我想要的人生——我想要成為一位演員，不是明星，不是影帝，就只是演員。”

　　爾冬升選取無名之輩來做主演，乃至在片子裏應用他們的真實姓名。這些演員們的上風在於他們能深入地懂得他們所描繪的人物(由於那便是他們本身人生的真實寫照)。然則他們的劣勢也是不言而喻的：缺少演技。當拍攝那些須要他們表達猛烈情緒的場景時，他們的臉色和行動仿佛有些誇大和不天然。

　　關於小人物尋求本身妄想的勵誌片子其實不新穎，但娛樂界這個題材是特殊的，這裏大概讓至多妄想之心破裂，讓最大盡力付之東流。在這裏，命運運限、機會和外表大概都要比盡力和保持更主要。

　　在影片中，覃培軍飾演了一名閱歷過煤窯塌方的幸存者，他冒死捉住每個大概讓他在鏡頭前露臉的機遇，縱然只是作為配景。但是，他成為一位專業演員的妄想實現起來明顯比有著英俊面龐的王昭更艱苦，只管王昭是憤世嫉俗的懶鬼。

　　對這部片子也有一些批駁的聲音，主如果針對片子末了的遷移轉變。這兩個主人公的美妙終局仿佛和整部影片的寫實作風不同等。但不管若何，這部片子不是記載片，而是想要誇大“每一個大膽者值得去追尋、實現妄想”的信心。

　　The word dream is probably heard most frequently from people in showbiz, where everyone dreams of standing under the spotlight and being somebody. But the brutal truth is most end up being nobody. Hong Kong director Derek Yee’s latest drama I Am Somebody pays tribute to these anonymous extras in the film industry.

　　To ensure his film’s accuracy, Yee spent three years making this extras-take-the-lead drama. He did extensive research, talking with over 1,000 Hengdian drifters to learn their personal stories and integrate what he learned into the script.

　　In the film, Wan Guopeng, son of a woodcutter, comes a long way from Dongbei with only 1,000 yuan in his pocket to the dream factory of the East to become an actor. In real life, when the earthy and diligent young man was chosen by the director to play the leading role, he had only 20 yuan left but still hadn’t considered giving up.

　　Distinguished Hong Kong actor Tony Leung recalled in a review that 30 years ago, he was a salesman but knew that’s not the kind of life he wanted to live. “Wan is exactly like me back then ... Only when I was in an acting training course did I realized that what I wanted to be was an actor, not a star winning the best actor awards, only being an actor.”

　　Yee chose real nobodies to play themselves in the movie, even using their real names. Their strength was their deep understanding of the feelings of the characters they portrayed. But the disadvantage was also obvious: They lacked of acting skills. When performing scenes required their emotional intensity, their expressions and moves seemed exaggerated and unnatural.

　　Inspirational movies about underdogs pursuing their dreams are nothing new. But the entertainment industry is special. It might be the field with the most broken hearts and most efforts gone in vain. Here luck, opportunity and physical appearance are probably much more crucial than hard work and persistence.

　　In the film, Qin Peijun, a survivor from a coal mine collapse, goes all out to seize every possibility to get his face in the lens of the camera, even if only as an extra. However, his dream of becoming a professional actor is obviously much less promising than Wang Zhao, who is a cynical slacker with a pretty face.

　　Some critical comments are directed at the sudden inversion in the last part of the film. The two protagonists’ happy ending seems discordant with the film’s realistic tone. But anyway, this movie is not a documentary but a way to reinforce that every bold heart deserves to have their dreams realized.
