Little Miss Sunshine

找到這一部片,是因為之前在找Devotchka的音樂,沒找到我要的曲目,反倒是發現了這部由他們負責配樂的電影,Little Miss Sunshine小太陽的願望 。

原本沒有什麼過多期待,結果意外地給我一個很明亮的禮拜天早上。很異國風情的配樂,讓美國公路電影有了東歐的味道,看似平常的對話又凸顯社會價值所加諸在人身上的扭曲。

原來大家都是不情願地出門,但大家為了達到Olive的願望,一起開個很妙的黃色麵包車出發,一開始在車上大家都不願開口,一開口就是爭辯,但越接近目的地,大家越來越緊密,看到Dwayne遭逢惡耗,在車上扭曲悲憤莫名,奪出車門怒吼的那一聲,讓我也跟著感覺十分痛快!
Dwayne: I wish I could just sleep until I was eighteen and skip all this crap-high school and everything-just skip it.
Frank: Do you know who Marcel Proust is?
Dwayne: He's the guy you teach.
Frank: Yeah. French writer. Total loser. Never had a real job. Unrequited love affairs. Gay. Spent 20 years writing a book almost no one reads. But he's also probably the greatest writer since Shakespeare. Anyway, he uh... he gets down to the end of his life, and he looks back and decides that all those years he suffered, Those were the best years of his life, 'cause they made him who he was. All those years he was happy? You know, total waste. Didn't learn a thing. So, if you sleep until you're 18... Ah, think of the suffering you're gonna miss. I mean high school? High school-those are your prime suffering years. You don't get better suffering than that.
沒有苦難,就不會成長,而這些苦難成就了你,不讓你的人生平淡無奇,而家人就是永遠不會離棄你,不管是一起推車後快跑追上車子,還是因為種種奇特的原因,要一起前進,還是遭遇什麼打擊和挫折,要一起承受,這就是家人,雖然吵吵鬧鬧不認同彼此的價值觀,嗑藥、事業不順、同性戀、孤僻冷漠、天真爛漫、神經兮兮,但就是會互相鼓勵和互相保護,最後強大的包容力,真的讓我心頭都感覺暖暖的。


這紙條真的太妙了。
