Farewell, Major Tom




Look up here, I'm in Heaven!
I've got scars that can't be seen
I've got drama, can't be stolen,
Everybody knows me now


Look up here, man, I'm in danger!
I've got nothing left to lose
I'm so high, it makes my brain whirl
Dropped my cellphone down below

Ain't that just like me?!

By the time I got to New York
I was living like a king
Then I used up all my money
I was looking for your ass

This way or no way
You know I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Now, ain't that just like me?

Oh, I'll be free
Just like that bluebird
Oh, I'll be free
Ain't that just like me?


--- Lazarus (by David Bowie)


RIP, my hero.

影事2015


今年的十大,絶大部份都是七月份之前看的.十月時在Zurich Film Festival 看了《山河故人》,出奇地不十分喜歡,又錯過了Greta Gerwig和Noah Baumbach自《Frances Ha》後再攜手合作的《Misstress America》,希望這部電影還有機會上正場吧.

除了新片,今年也有幸在大銀幕看到修復版的 《2001:A Space Odyssey》和《 Blade Runner (The Final Cut)》,雖然都已經不是第一次觀賞這兩部電影,但仍深深被銀幕中的影像感動.另一令我高興的是在場亦有不少年輕的觀眾.經典,就是超越時空.



A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night - 描繪社會實況的伊朗電影看得多,但伊朗的僵屍片還是第一次看.在一個地點不詳的罪惡之城,獨行僵屍女每夜都遊走街頭,遇上她究竟是禍是福?電影無論是攝影、氣氛營造和鏡頭調度都屬上乘之作.處女作就顯出如此功力,Ana Lily Amirpour這個新進導演絶對值得留意.
