IMDb影評：黑色的風采（2005）

Pretentious yet impressive; manipulative yet moving
Peter_Young8 September 2008

自命不凡令人欽佩;表演令人動容

Sanjay Leeela Bhansali's Black is definitely a good film. It is brilliantly scxted, made and executed, and it is also profound and complex. Many have called it a pretentious show, and indeed, that's something very obvious and annoying. I'm sure Bhansali from the very outset had planned to get many awards, five-star reviews, and "the-best-filmmaker-in-the-country" titles, but that said, nobody can completely begrudge him since this movie is as impressive and well-invested as it is ostentatious, and it deserves the hype. Let's start with saying that technically and visually Black is a treat. It boasts of fantastic sets and wonderful costumes, and the cinematography is incredibly good. All these, along with the superb background score, create a beautifully dark film. Having said that, this may be the exact reason why many viewers found it hard to relate to, and that's something I can easily understand, particularly after having seen his best feature to date, Khamoshi: The Musical, in which everything was kept simple. Here there's no simplicity: everything is lavish, big, grandiose - and that's why it's often labelled pretentious. The film is emotional yet unsentimental, which is good, but then, one of its main flaws is the fact that more than once it resorts to emotional manipulation, trying to forcibly wring tears.

桑杰·里拉·布汗薩里的《黑色的風采》絕對是一部好電影。這部電影的劇本、制作和執(zhí)行都非常出色，而且情節(jié)深刻而復雜。很多人說這是一場裝腔作勢的演出，事實上，這是非常明顯和令人討厭的。我相信布汗薩里從一開始就計劃獲得許多獎項，五星影評，以及“全國最佳電影制作人”的稱號，但即便如此，沒有人會完全嫉妒他，因為這部電影引人矚目、投資充分、惹人注目，它值得大肆宣傳。讓我們從技術上和視覺上來說，《黑色的風采》是一種享受。它擁有夢幻般的布景和華麗的服裝，電影攝影也非常棒。所有這些，再加上精彩的背景音樂，創(chuàng)造出一個美麗的黑暗電影。話雖如此，這可能正是許多觀眾難以理解的原因，這一點我很容易理解，尤其是在看過他迄今為止最好的一部作品之后，《寂靜之音》，一切都很簡單。但又不簡單:一切都是奢華的，巨大的，浮夸的——這就是為什么它經常被貼上自命不凡的標簽。這部電影是是感性的但又不是感性的，這很好，但是，它的一個主要缺陷是，它不止一次地訴諸于操縱情感，試圖強行擠出眼淚。

Well, one thing is sure and it is that you can always expect good acting in a SLB film, particularly when it has an Amitabh Bachchan. Bachchan's performance is out of this world. His character goes through many phases, and each time you feel he's sinking into it more and more, so much that no words can be found to describe it. Seeing an actor of his calibre still being there, and playing a part with such passion, intensity, emotion, anger and hunger, makes one believe that the sky is the limit. Along with Yuva, Hum Tum and Veer-Zaara, Black is a film that constructs Rani Mukherjee's transformation from an average performer to a mature actress. She plays the character brilliantly. The scene which had her crying on the phone to her mom, is one of her career-best acts. It's cruel that she is cast opposite Bachchan, as she can't take the whole credit to herself, and well, frankly speaking, in my view her role is not as powerful as his, as it is a technical part that requires extensive training rather than soul. It's still a memorable performance, and in her case, if the sky is the limit, Black was probably the sky. Without taking anything from Mukherjee, I was more impressed and amazed by the far more superior performance of Ayesha Kapur, who played the young Michelle to perfection. Kapur is simply flawless in this role.

嗯，有一件事是肯定的，那就是你總能在SLB電影中看到好的表演，特別是當它有阿米特巴·巴強的時候。巴強的表演實在是太出色了。他的角色經歷了許多階段，每次你都覺得他越來越沉浸其中，以至于無法用語言來描述?？吹较袼菢佑胁湃A的演員還在那里，扮演著這樣帶有激情、強度、情感、憤怒和饑餓的角色，讓人相信一切都是可能的。與《青春》、《我和你》以及《愛無國界》一起，《黑色的風采》是一部構建了拉妮·瑪克赫吉從一個普通演員到一個成熟女演員轉變的電影。她出色地扮演了這個角色。她在給媽媽打電話時哭的那一幕，是她職業(yè)生涯中最好的表演之一。讓她和巴強演對手戲太殘忍了，因為她不能把所有的功勞都攬在自己身上，好啦，坦率地說，在我看來，拉妮·瑪克赫吉的角色沒有巴強的角色那樣極具感染力。像演技部分，需要廣泛的訓練，而不是氣魄。這仍然是一場令人難忘的演出，拿她來說，如果她潛力無窮，《黑色的風采》可能就是她的潛力。我沒有從瑪克赫吉那里感受到任何東西，可阿伊莎·卡普爾(Ayesha Kapur)出色得多的表演給我留下了更深刻的印象，她完美地扮演了年輕的米歇爾?？ㄆ諣栐谶@個角色中完美無瑕。

Sanjay Leela Bhansali is a crafted filmmaker who knows his work and his goals very well. In spite of its flaws, Black remains artistic and it is overall a moving movie experience. The words hope, love, dedication and success always come to the mind while watching it. It might not be original, it may be extremely manipulative at points, but the effort that was put into it by the entire cast and crew is evident and appreciable. Black is definitely better than most of the films made in the Hindi film industry. Though for me too it is a mixed bag, I admit that the first time I saw it, I kept thinking of it after the show had ended and for quite some time. This is an achievement few films can achieve (for me), and here's why my high rating.

桑杰·里拉·布汗薩里是一位非常了解自己工作和目標的優(yōu)秀電影制作人。盡管存在缺陷，《黑色的風采》仍然具有藝術性，總體來說是一部感人的電影。在觀看的過程中，腦海中總會浮現(xiàn)出希望、愛、奉獻和成功等詞語。它可能不是原創(chuàng)的，它可能在某些方面極具演繹性，但全體演員和工作人員投入的努力是顯而易見的，值得贊賞的?！逗谏娘L采》肯定比印度電影行業(yè)的大多數(shù)電影要好。雖然對我來說也是好壞參半，但我承認，我第一次看這部電影時，在這部劇結束后很長一段時間里，我一直在回味。很少有電影能達到的成就(對我來說)，這也是我給予高度評價的原因。

I changed my views about Hindi movies too...
kairanga12 January 2006

我也改變了對印地語電影的看法…

For a long time I would watch Hindi / Tamil movies only when ironing. You don't care if you miss some parts - there is always gratuitous mandatory dances, fights and incidental humor.

很長一段時間，我只在熨衣服的時候看印地語/泰米爾語電影。你不介意錯過某些部分——總有無緣無故的強制性舞蹈、打斗和附帶的幽默。

Black stands out among the Hindi movies. The brilliant acting, dramatic tension, breathtaking views of the mansions in Simla and the story-telling technique blended to create a great experience. Agreed Amitab is a great actor. But Rani Mukerjee mounts a respectable challenge to him. Supporting actors were great too.

《黑色的風采》在印地語電影中脫穎而出。精彩的表演、扣人心弦的緊張氣氛、西姆拉大廈的壯麗景色以及講故事的技巧混合在一起創(chuàng)造了很棒地的體驗。我贊成阿米特巴是一個偉大的演員。但拉妮·瑪克赫吉向他發(fā)起了一個相當重要的挑戰(zhàn)。配角也很棒。

If Hindi movies are half as good as this, I would watch more.

如果印地語電影有這部一半好，我會多看。

I had a bonanza holiday break watching Black, Paheli and Mangal Pande. Looks like there is some real light at the end of the tunnel, after all! I am now a declared fan of Rani Mukerjee.

我在假期里看了《黑色的風采》、《鬼丈夫》和《抗暴英雄》。看來隧道的盡頭終有曙光！我現(xiàn)在是拉妮·瑪克赫吉的公開粉絲。

Why don't people like it?
mamamia12309810 June 2006

人們怎會不喜歡呢?

Who cares if it's like Miracle Worker....it's still such a beautiful movie. And believe me, it's different and if you stupid, idiotic people can't remember, the movie was made in Helen Keller's honor and they spent a whole day at her institution. And the only it has in common to Miracle Worker is a Deaf and blind girl. The descxtion of the blackness she sees and how in the end she helps Amitabh learn to remember is original.

誰會在乎它是否像《奇跡創(chuàng)造者》....它仍然是一部美好的電影。相信我，這是不一樣的，如果你是傻子，白癡的家伙不記得，這部電影是為了紀念海倫·凱勒而制作的，他們在她的機構里待了一整天。而它和《奇跡創(chuàng)造者》唯一的共同點是一個又聾又瞎的女孩。她所看到的黑暗，以及最后她如何幫助阿米特巴學習回憶的描述，都是原創(chuàng)的。

Black Shows darkness in a frightening, confusing, frustrating place, a whirlwind of emotion and anger. Michelle lives in a time where little can be done for her. Anger rots inside her for the frustration she feels for not seeing her sister's face or hear her mother's voice. She's a prisoner. She feels excluded. For hours upon hours she tries to scream but nothing comes out...just distorted noises that she can't even hear. Black is a living hell...until she meets Amitabh bachan's character....her brings light into Michelle's terrifying world.

《黑色的風采》演繹了黑暗存在于令人害怕、迷茫、沮喪的地方，存在于情感與憤怒的旋風中。米歇爾生活在一個對她無能為力的時代。她因為看不到姐姐的臉或聽不到母親的聲音而感到沮喪，她把憤怒爛在心里。她是一個囚犯。她感到被排除在外。 一連好幾個小時，她都試著尖叫，但什么也喊不出來。只有她聽不到的扭曲的聲音。黑色是人間地獄……直到她遇到了阿米特巴·巴強的角色....她給米歇爾可怕的世界帶來了光明。

Rani Mukerji is fantastic and she is NOT annoying because you dumb haters just don't see the depth. And she was't just acting like she thought a deaf, mute,and blind person would. They actually spent a day at the institution. Though it strays from the typical musical/love story/gangster-beats-up-hero-but-he-doesn't-care-hes-bloody and/or is dying Indian movie( i think those movies are bull crap), its beautiful! Give it a chance! You'll really learn something!

拉妮·瑪克赫吉非常棒，她并不令人討厭，因為你們這些討厭鬼根本看不出其中的深度。她并不只是演出了她所認為的聾、啞、盲人。他們在機構待了一天。雖然它偏離了典型的音樂/愛情故事/黑幫打英雄但英雄并不在意流血和/或垂死的印度電影(我認為那些電影都是扯淡)，這部電影很美好！試著看一下吧！你真的會學到一些東西！

Great Movie! Good Solid Direction! Awesome Performances!!!
tumharabaap9 February 2005

很棒的電影！十分可靠的導演！極佳的演出?。?！

Here's very briefly what the movie is about:

以下是這部電影的梗概:

It is the story of Helen Keller & Anne Mansfield Sullivan, suitably modified though, to nicely fit into the Bollywood mould.

這是海倫·凱勒和安妮·曼斯菲爾德·沙利文的故事，不過經過了適當?shù)男薷模鹾狭藢毴R塢的模式。

That however should not take anything away from the three main highlights of the film:

然而，這并不會影響這部電影的三個主要亮點:

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Direction, Rani Mukherjee's execution of a difficult role, & Mr. Amitabh Bachchan!!!

桑杰·里拉·布汗薩里的指導，拉妮·瑪克赫吉演了一個困難的角色，以及阿米特巴·巴強先生!!

Bhansali is best at stories highlighting human struggle. And with this adaptation he comes up trumps once again. He also proves that if you have a great story & just one great actor in a meaty role, you have a hit on your hands. Strange how the so called moguls of Hindi cinema cannot see that!

布汗薩里最擅長講述人類奮斗的故事。有了這種改編劇本，他又一次取得了勝利。他也證明了如果你有一個偉大的故事同時有一個優(yōu)秀的演員演個豐富的角色，你就能大獲成功。奇怪的是，所謂的印地語電影巨頭怎么看不到這一點!

Rani Mukherjee's performance as the Indian Helen Keller (Michelle) is very commendable. It is just her misfortune that she was pitted against Amitabh Bachchan in the BEST Role (Devraj Sahay) of his life!!!

拉妮·瑪克赫吉扮演的印度版海倫·凱勒(米歇爾)是非常值得稱贊的。只是不幸的是她是與阿米特巴·巴強一生中最好的角色（德布拉杰·薩海）相競爭!

Mr. Bachchan tends to dwarf everyone. To all those who doubt that he is the GREATEST Actor this country has produced, go watch Black. You will return transformed for life! From the moment he comes on screen, he mesmerizes you. And he holds you till the last frx of the movie. He gives you goose bumps with his performance. And to think that the effort doesn't even show...

巴強先生往往讓每個人都相形見絀。那些懷疑他是這個國家有史以來最偉大的演員的人，去看看《黑色的風采》吧。你會轉變回來的!從他出現(xiàn)在銀幕上的那一刻起，你就被他迷住了。他一直吸引著你，直到電影的最后一幀。他的表演讓你起雞皮疙瘩。并且覺得其沒有表演的痕跡...

Now if only other film makers would give him roles worthy of his calibre as an actor, we could well have our first Best Actor Oscar ever. No kidding. Go see the film!

現(xiàn)在，如果其他電影制作人能給他一個與他的演技相稱的角色，我們很可能會迎來有史以來第一個奧斯卡最佳男主角獎。沒有開玩笑。去看電影吧!

And Oh! I almost forgot. The little girl who plays the young Michelle is the best child actor this author ever seen! And that includes the Macaulay Culkins & Haley Joel Osments of the world!

哦!我差點忘了。扮演小米歇爾的小女孩是這位作者見過的最好的童星!包括世界上的麥考利·卡爾金斯和海利·喬·奧斯蒙特!

Trust me! Go see the film!

相信我!去看電影吧!

Good movie and good acting!
vrnq12 February 2006

好電影，好演技!

Excellent performance of the two main actors: Rani Mukherjee is unrecognizable and believable in her role of a blind person & Amitabh Bachchan, well, wonderful as usual! It is a sad and dark movie though. I do not think that this movie is about love nor God... but about hope for sure! It is a good movie, well played. For people looking for a Hindi movie without the Bollywood songs and dances, this one will make them happy; there is nothing of that sort here in this film that is a bit long (124 minutes!).

兩位主演的出色表演:拉妮·瑪克赫吉扮演的盲人角色讓人認不出來，也讓人難以置信，而阿米特巴·巴強，嗯，和往常一樣精彩!雖然這是一部悲傷和黑暗的電影。我不認為這部電影是關于愛或上帝的……但肯定是關于希望的!這是一部好電影，演得很好。對于那些想看一部沒有寶萊塢歌舞的印度電影的人來說，這部電影會讓他們滿意;在這部影片中，沒有任何類似的東西顯得電影有點長（124分鐘?。?。

For those who admire Amitiji(I am one of them), I guess you must watch this movie because he really is incredible!

對于那些崇拜Amitiji的人(我就是其中之一)，我想你一定要看這部電影，因為他真的是不可思議!
【譯注：Amitiji這個名字譯者實在沒有找到官方譯名，故沿用原文】

A little hollow, nah?
ChiBron11 July 2005

有點空洞，不是嗎?

One would expect a storyline like this to be an emotional experience. But I had a hard time feeling for the characters. I read a LOT of reviews where people said they couldn't sleep after watching this flick. Sorry, just couldn't feel that way. I watched it, and forgot abt it. Didn't find it emotionally engaging enough.....which is typical of movies directed by SLB who once again focuses more on the technical aspects of the movie then the human side of it. Now, I'm not saying Black's a DUD. Far from it, in fact. The cinematography is brilliant, even if it sometimes takes the focus away from the narrative. The performances are legendary and clearly the heart and soul of the movie. Rani and AB deserve all the accolades they get. The little girl, although a tad overrated IMO, was good too. But still, the movie is lacking that "juice" where you instantly fall in love with everything - ESPECIALLY the characters and their lives.

人們會期待這樣的故事情節(jié)成為一種情感體驗。但我對角色的感覺很差。我讀了很多評論，人們說他們看完這部電影后睡不著覺。抱歉，我就是沒那種感覺。我看了，然后就忘了。我覺得它的情感吸引力不夠.....這是典型的SLB導演的電影，他再次更多地關注電影的技術方面，而不是它的人的一面。我不是說《黑色的風采》一無是處。事實上，遠非如此。這部電影的攝影非常出色，即使它有時會把焦點從敘事上轉移開。傳奇的精彩表演顯然是這部電影的核心和靈魂。拉妮和AB【譯注：這里的AB指阿米特巴·巴強（Amitabh Bachchan）】應該得到他們得到的所有榮譽。這個小女孩，雖然在我看來有點被高估了，但也很好。但是，這部電影仍然缺乏那種讓你立刻愛上一切的“活力”——尤其是角色和他們的生活。

pretentious contrived and desperate!
blayzer_trayl26 December 2005

矯情，做作，絕望!

Just watched this film on DVD....and i cannot have a more opposite opinion with the majority on this film! One of the most pretentious contrived nonsense i have ever seen...

剛剛在DVD上看了這部電影......我對這部電影的看法與大多數(shù)人截然相反!這是我見過的最矯揉造作的鬧劇……

The film is so desperately trying to be recognised as a foreign film contender at the Oscars ..so some bollywood moguls can rub shoulders with the glitterati in Hollywood.... but this film will not only rightfully get snubbed but absolutely slaughtered by western critics i feel.

這部電影拼命想在奧斯卡上被認為是外國電影的有力競爭者..以至于一些寶萊塢大亨可以與好萊塢的名流們并肩而行....但我覺得，這部電影不僅會理所當然地受到西方影評人的冷落，而且會遭到徹底的屠殺。

I have to say it was a wonderful premise for a film ...and it had all the pre-conceived notions of an emotional journey ...but scene after scene of melodramatic, unresearched nonsense followed. I was rolling my head into the back of my eyes throughout! Film makers are given dramatic licence to make scenes work and give them impact ..so they may lose some social realism ...but every scene in this was wholly and entirely unrealistic to its subject! I don't know where to begin ..OK i'll give a few: *Spoilers* Amitabh flips a switch when he sees the girl with a bell tied to her ...but then proceeds to slap her around and throw water over her to discipline her.

我不得不說這對一部電影來說是一個很好的前提……它包含了所有關于情感之旅的先入為主的概念……但一場接一場的夸張、未經研究的鬧劇接踵而至。我從頭到尾都在翻白眼!電影制作人被賦予了戲劇性的許可，使場景發(fā)揮作用，并賦予它們影響。所以他們可能會失去一些社會現(xiàn)實主義……但這里面的每一個場景對它的主人公來說都是完全、完全不現(xiàn)實的!我不知道從何說起..好吧，我舉幾個例子:*劇透* 當阿米特巴看到女孩身上綁著一個鈴鐺時，他扯掉了鈴鐺……但接著又打了她一巴掌，往她身上潑水來管教她。

What line of interview questions are these by the principals before admitting her into university? The reactions/dialogue from the parents were completely unrealistic responses to situations! (There are so many more anomalies but i cant remember...as i have already forgotten most of this dribble)

在錄取她進入大學之前，校長們會問她哪些問題?父母的反應/對話是完全不現(xiàn)實的情況下的反應！(還有很多異常的情況，但我不記得了……因為我已經忘記了大部分的細節(jié))
