今天去看Beastly,故事的內容大概就是真人版的Beauty and Beast,或是男生版的Penelope。
故事內容大概可以猜出來,不能一直說是老梗,以免講得好像我看過很多電影似的,不過平鋪直述的劇情,沒有太多令人訝異的發展。以下有幾點是我的心得;
1. 就算被巫婆詛咒 ,本身身體的條件也要不錯。雖然男主角因為詛咒變成滿臉都是奇怪線條
的醜八怪,但是還是很有型,身材的線條和結實的肌肉就狂勝了。如果今天是一個有中年男
子身材的宅男,變成怪物,我不相信女主角會喜歡滿肚肥腸的肉球。另外,男主角還是家裡
要有錢,不然醜八怪如果變不出甚麼特別的把戲,女主角怎麼會喜歡呢?雖然故事開始有交
代說女主角不是一個Material Girl,對於名牌包包或是首飾的吸引,都不如一箱snack來
的有效,但事故事後面男主角為了搞氣氛讓女主角感動,也是需要大手筆阿。
2. 有一段讓我印象比較深刻的是,當男主角看到自己在社群網站上面以前帥氣的照片,然後嘆
氣地將自己的網頁給deactive,然後偷偷跑去女主角家裡留下偷偷看她,露出笑容。表示他
不是自暴自棄,而是他開始面對變醜得自己,忘記(move on)過去風光的自己。而被男主角
在暗地裡觀察的女主角,一邊走一邊聽音樂,還因為太投入音樂而忘我地大聲唱出歌來這一
幕,也表現出女主角率真的一面。當然,這一段背景音樂是搭配了我喜歡團體Death Cab
for Cutie - Transatlanticism的歌,讓我特別有感覺。
3. 約會的場地好像越是越隱密,不能隨便進入,越是可以吸引女生。男主角偷偷帶女主角到已
經關門的動物園裡面,訴說自己的心事。這一幕讓我想到在電影Nothing Hill裡面,半夜時
Julia Roberts帶著Hugh Grant偷偷淺入私人的公園裡面,約會氣氛的指數瞬間破表。下
次帶女生晚上出去,可能要仔細計畫惹。

[Poem] 夏宇
最近想起二首夏宇的詩。
<甜蜜的復仇>
把你的影子加點鹽
醃起來
風乾
老的時候
下酒
<秋天的哀愁>
完全不愛了的那人坐在對面看我
像空的寶特瓶不易回收消滅困難
*可惡,上次在博客來買書忘記買夏宇的書了。
*很怕因為po上夏宇的詩,被人誤認我是有憂鬱症的文藝青年,或許是我想太多了...

[Movie] Rango
因為好友的首印門票,先睹為快地欣賞到"Rango"這部動畫片。
這部片最大的賣點,我想應該是主角"Rango"是由Johnny Depp來配音。
看完這部片之後,有幾個感想(中間我睡著了,所以...You know...):
1. 我對動畫科技的進步,感覺到很吃驚,裡面有很多畫面真的很逼真,有時候會懷疑是不是有
混合著真實場景或是真人拍攝。而且人物動作的細節都很自然。
2. 故事雖然是老梗,但是英雄救美和打敗大魔王的喬段,是票房的安全保證。
3. 裡面快到故事尾聲的地方,出現了大蛇*,實在是覺得修跨害怕和噁心(我是最不喜歡蛇這
種動物的了)。
4. 被人飼養的Rango活在自己的世界(其實也只是一個小水族缸),直到有次意外才接觸外面
的世界,一開始還因為不知道怎樣善用自己的本能來躲避外來橫禍(利用可以變色的大絕
招,躲掉老鷹的追捕。),最後變成解救小鎮的英雄,這種故事雖然常常看到,但是用在一
隻大小眼的蜥蜴身上,卻是第一次。
5. 影片中四隻會唱歌的貓頭鷹好可愛歐。
* 大蛇的照片(有夠噁的)
最後看到有賣Rango的bottle water,這個也太酷了吧!

[Music] The world I know VS Iris
今天早上開車聽到Goo Goo Dolls的Iris,
忽然覺得前奏跟Collective Soul的The world I know好像。

螞蟻給我的啓示
[Essay] I'm so eager to see you again
I'm so eager to see you again
but I wouldn't ask to see you
not because I'm proud
In fact, in front of you
I cede all my pride
yet only if you asked to see me
our meeting would be meaningful to me
but I wouldn't ask to see you
not because I'm proud
In fact, in front of you
I cede all my pride
yet only if you asked to see me
our meeting would be meaningful to me
Simone de Beauvoir, 1950

[Music] Adele - 21
因為前女友的關係,知道了這位歌手。
她是英國胖妞(雖然有些過分,但是我是外貌協會的),人很年輕,
但是歌聲聽起來卻有滄桑的靈魂,很有感覺。
chasing pavements這首歌是讓她紅遍大街小巷的代表作。
最近她出了新的專輯 "21"(應該21歲的意思)
裡面我最喜歡的歌是Someone like you
Adele - Someone like you
I heard that you're settled down,
That you found a girl and you're married now,
I heard that your dreams came true,
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you,
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead, yeah,
You know how the time flies,
Only yesterday was the time of our lives,
We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days,
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over,
Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Nothing compares,
No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Nevermind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead,"
Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead.
另外一首令我驚訝的歌是Lovesong,翻唱the cure
原本就很喜歡這首歌了,加上Adele翻唱又有令一種很不一樣的味道。
我個人很喜歡翻唱後的版本。
