阿蘭雷乃(Alain Resnais) 執導的《廣島之戀》(1959) 是法國新浪潮中最具影響力的電影之一，這場電影運動徹底改變了20 世紀50 年代末和1960 年代初的電影製作藝術。雷乃這部開創性的作品由著名編劇瑪格麗特·杜拉斯 (Marguerite Duras) 撰寫，以二戰期間廣島原子彈爆炸的毀滅性後果為背景，對記憶、愛情和創傷進行了深刻的探索。
影片以緊張而親密的方式開始，描繪了一位法國女演員（埃曼紐爾·麗娃飾演）和一位日本建築師（岡田英二飾演）在廣島進行了一段短暫而熱烈的戀情。他們的關係成為揭示記憶的持久性和歷史的重量等複雜主題的焦點。當角色們講述他們的個人過去時——她對戰爭期間家鄉被毀的痛苦記憶，以及他對爆炸造成的痛苦的反思——這部電影將個人悲傷與集體歷史創傷無縫地融合在一起。
《廣島之戀》之所以如此引人注目，是因為它的非線性敘事和令人迷失方向的結構。雷乃採用創新的剪輯技術，經常在當下和閃回之間切換，創造出對人物情緒狀態支離破碎但有凝聚力的描述。畫外音的旁白將他們的思想與生動的意象交織在一起，增添了影片的夢幻質感。
1959 年發行的專輯無論在主題上還是在風格上都在當時具有開創性。它透過強調戰爭留下的傷痕來深入探討人類的狀況，不僅是身體上的傷痕，也是情感上和心理上的傷痕。 《廣島之戀》仍然是一部令人難忘的作品，因其對記憶、身份以及個人和集體歷史交匯的深刻情感描繪而受到尊敬。
Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959), directed by Alain Resnais, stands as one of the most influential films of the French New Wave, a cinematic movement that revolutionized the art of filmmaking in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Resnais’ groundbreaking work, written by acclaimed screenwriter Marguerite Duras, is a poignant exploration of memory, love, and trauma, set against the backdrop of the devastating aftermath of the Hiroshima bombing during World War II.The film opens with an intense and intimate portrayal of a French actress (played by Emmanuelle Riva) and a Japanese architect (played by Eiji Okada) who engage in a brief but passionate love affair in Hiroshima. Their relationship becomes the focal point for the unraveling of complex themes such as the persistence of memory and the weight of history. As the characters recount their personal pasts—her painful memories of the destruction of her home city during the war, and his reflections on the suffering caused by the bombing—the film seamlessly blends personal grief with collective historical trauma.What makes Hiroshima Mon Amour so compelling is its non-linear narrative and its disorienting structure. Resnais employs innovative editing techniques, often cutting between the present and flashbacks, creating a fragmented yet cohesive depiction of the characters’ emotional states. The voiceover narration, which intertwines their thoughts with the vivid imagery, adds to the dream-like quality of the film.The 1959 release was groundbreaking for its time, both thematically and stylistically. It delved into the human condition by highlighting the scars left by war, not just physically, but emotionally and psychologically. Hiroshima Mon Amour remains an unforgettable work, revered for its deeply emotional portrayal of memory, identity, and the intersection of personal and collective history.
Alain Robbe-Grillet, 85, French Author, Is Dead
PARIS (AP) — Alain Robbe-Grillet, an author and filmmaker who was one of France’s most important avant-garde writers in the 1950s, died on Monday. He was 85.
Alain Robbe-Grillet in 2004.
He died at a hospital in western France where he had been admitted over the weekend for cardiac problems, officials said.
As a novelist, Mr. Robbe-Grillet helped establish the New Novel, a genre that rejected conventional storytelling. As a screenwriter, he was best known for his work on Alain Resnais’s “Last Year at Marienbad” (1961), for which he was nominated for an Academy Award.
An enigmatic work whose characters, often bored and identified only by initials, live in an otherworldly chateau, not sure whether they are planning seductions or remembering them, “Last Year in Marienbad” was released in the United States in early 1962 and became one of the most talked-about art films of the year.
Among the films Mr. Robbe-Grillet directed himself were “L’Immortelle” (“The Immortal”) (1963), “Trans-Europ-Express” (1967) and “Eden and After” (1970).
He was the most prominent of France’s so-called New Novelists, a group that emerged in the mid-1950s whose other members included Claude Simon, Michel Butor and Nathalie Sarraute. Their experimental work tossed aside literary conventions like plot and character development, narrative and chronology, chapters and punctuation.
Mr. Robbe-Grillet’s best-known works of fiction include “Les Gommes” (“The Erasers”), a 1953 novel about a detective investigating an apparent murder who ends up killing the victim, and “Le Voyeur” (1955), about the world seen through the eyes of a sadistic killer. His last novel, published last year, was “Un Roman Sentimental” (“A Sentimental Novel”).
In 1963 he wrote “Pour un Nouveau Roman” (“Toward a New Novel”), a highly regarded critical essay laying the theoretical foundations of the genre. It became the French avant-garde’s bible and catapulted Mr. Robbe-Grillet to star status among Parisian intellectuals.
Mr. Robbe-Grillet was born in Brest, France, the son of an engineer. He graduated from the Lycée St.-Louis in Paris and received a degree in agricultural engineering from the National Agronomy Institute.
Information about survivors was not immediately available.
Mr. Robbe-Grillet was inducted into France’s Legion of Honor and was one of the 40 so-called immortals of the prestigious Académie Française, the anointed protector of the French language.
President Nicolas Sarkozy’s office said in a statement, “The Académie Française today loses one of its most illustrious members, and without a doubt its most rebellious.”
