Autobahn, Tamborine and Other Shit I Don’t Really Understand

(一)

六年里看了很多遍 Judgment at Nuremberg, 永远是最好的庭审戏。

听 Kraftwerk 的 3-D 一切,异常好听。查了查 Autobahn, 德语里的高速公路。

碰巧第二天看大审判,听到仆妇说:

Hitler did some good things. I won’t say he didn’t do some good things. He built the Autobahn. He gave more people work.

多么熟悉的来自民间的论调。接下来的对话就是之前微博提到的那一段。

仆妇:

We won’t say he didn’t do some good things. But the other things…the things they say he did to the Jews and the rest…we knew nothing about that. Very few Germans did.

仆夫补充:

And if we did know…what could we do?

虽然是闲聊,但是法官说:

But Mrs. Halbestadt said you didn’t know.

人们到底知道吗?Janning 在庭上说:

Maybe we didn’t know the details. But if we didn’t know, it was because we didn’t want to know.

看了《大佛普拉斯》《村戏》,都是不完全黑白片。大佛里面,只有老板的行车记录仪画面是彩色的,声色犬马男盗女娼。村戏里面,只在闪回文革的时候有大红配大绿,视效像故意粗糙扎眼的后期上色。色彩是特权,是金钱和政治。

大佛里面人人说“靠北”,原来是“哭爸”的意思,你爹死了。没怎么看过台湾电影,不然早学会了。村戏里面人人问“沾不沾”,就是“行不行”的意思,原来好多地方都这么说,不只我家那边。

大佛和村戏都很好很宝贵。人命算个屁,屁的故事值得去讲。

冲着 Michael B. Jordan (以及对文化现象的好奇……)看了 Black Panther, 片子观感一般,而且 3D 眼镜太难受,我恨 3D!! 但 Michael 确实可爱!Tiffany Haddish 发的一段搞笑小视频也有他出镜,看了很多遍:)

I don’t care if you became the king or not, you’re just Wallace to me.

把 Chris Rock 的经典场又看了一遍。”Life is catching up with jail.” “Men are as faithful as their choices.” 这两句真的过耳难忘。

最新专场 Tamborine 被喷得稀烂,评论一片骂 “fucking racist!” 就我看来,他十几二十年前的立场也很“激进”,但内容好笑。现在的 Chris Rock 完全失去锐气锋芒光彩膨胀等等一切让他充满舞台的东西了。不穿亮闪闪的皮衣,不再拽着话筒线大步走来走去,不再扯着嗓子一遍一遍重复自己的话,变成了任何一个穿小号 T 恤证明自己并没发胖、台上辐射半径不超过一米、鼻子不通还喋喋不休、出轨离婚又念念不忘的颓唐中年男人。我是不是刻薄了,对不起。

艺术家要多自恋才能承受自己的作品。抄一段:

“The fact that I myself, at the moment of painting, do not understand my own pictures, does not mean that these pictures have no meaning; on the contrary, their meaning is so profound, complex, coherent, and involuntary that it escapes the most simple analysis of logical intuition. To describe my pictures in everyday language, to explain them, it is neccessary to submit them to special analyses and preferably with the most ambitiously objective scientific rigour possible. Then all explanation arises a posteriori; once the picture already exists as phenomenon.”
