相较于同时期大量依赖画面奇观或欧洲现代主义风格的默片,《蒙骗》走的是一条更为冷峻、硬朗的写实路线。如果你偏爱那种在对话交锋中试探人性底线,而非单纯靠动作戏刺激肾上腺素的剧情片,这部作品能给你带来独特的审美体验。早川雪洲并未沦为单纯的冷酷反派,而是通过眼神中那一抹难以捉摸的神经质,赋予了角色一种破碎的宿命美感。对于研究 silent era 叙事技术的影迷而言,这部影片展示了早期导演如何通过场景分割和调度逻辑,在无声环境中完成复杂戏剧冲突的传递。 ☺。早川雪洲与凡妮·沃德的表演在封闭的叙事空间内张力十足,精准捕捉了人物在道德悬崖边缘的挣扎。
Edith Hardy uses charity funds for Wall Street investments in hopes of buying some new gowns. She loses all the money and borrows from wealthy oriental Tori. When her husband gives her the amount she borrowed, Tori won't take it back, branding her shoulder with a Japanese sign of his ownership. She shoots him. Her husband takes the blame. In court Edith reveals all to an angry mob. Written by Ed Stephan {stephan@cc.wwu.edu} Richard Hardy, a hardworking stockbroker, labors overtime to keep up with the ruinous bills incurred by his beautiful but irresponsible wife Edith, a venal, spoiled socialite who is impervious to his pleas for fiscal restraint. Acting on what she believes to be an insider information, she impulsively embezzles $10,000 from the Red Cross charity she chairs for a stock tip. When she finds the money has been lost, she desperately turns to a Japanese ivory trader with whom she has been thoughtlessly flirting and persuades him to replace the money in exchange for an assignation. When her husband's long-awaited business deal finally materializes, she desperately tries to withdraw from their agreement by replacing the money. Angered and disappointed with her resistance to his advances, he uses a branding device to mark her shoulder as his property. Feeling violated, Edith shoots him in the shoulder and leaves. In order to protect his wife's reputation, Richard confesses to the crime and faces trial for attempted murder. Written by Gabe Taverney (duke1029@aol.com)相关搜索:
