    赤壁——如何将中国特色植入商业大片

          2008的本土电影票房榜一出,我想没人比吴宇森更加开心,赤壁上以$45,581,382的收入稳居第一,比画皮的$33,467,300高出了26个百分点。但我想这也是吴意料之中的事情。从张艺谋的《满城尽带黄金甲》到冯小刚的《夜宴》,内地这些名导们在个人特色和身份标识得到认可之后,向着更高的目标——票房发起的冲击的时候,因为无法将中国特色与商业大片完美结合,所以悻悻而回。于是有了号称回归之作的依然泛着黄土气息的《千里走单骑》和冯氏幽默依然钟情草根人物的《非诚勿扰》。

          

         而吴宇森为什么会获得成功,在有了足够的理论依据的基础之上,我们反观其原因。以《英雄本色》等枪战片起家的吴导在向好莱坞投石问路的时候,与汤姆克鲁斯合作的《碟中谍2》毫不费力的摸透了一些套路。我想,在以票房论英雄的娱乐时代,之所以取得成功,那是因为做出了一顿既主留着本土特色又与时俱进的饕餮大餐。

         我很庆幸在赤壁下中,看到了浓墨重彩,原汁原味的“草船借箭”和“火烧赤壁”,看原著版中文字虽字字珠玑,但终不能身临其境;电视剧版的三国演义虽然详尽稳妥,终不能还原当时的弘大和辉煌。但这在电影中,得到了完美的呈现。

          更加难能可贵的是吴宇森并未拘泥于定势思维,而加入了个人对三国这段历史的理解和表达。这在改动的几个场景,如孙尚香只身深入曹营、刘备依计率军出走、小乔为借东风拖延时间泡茶、取消华容道周瑜放走曹操和影片结尾的对话中均深有体现。在尽可能的还原历史场面的情况下,将角色人性化,赋予各自鲜活的性格特点,栩栩如生。并且情节丝丝入扣,环环相迭。既自成一派,又与上集遥相呼应;最后周瑜的“我们都输了”和小乔说“萌萌长大了不要让它上战场”最终都表明了导演的反战主题。

         有的人不喜欢赤壁我想是因为觉得期中有太多臆造的成分,不符合定式历史的一贯模式。可我想说,历史是什么,那些所谓真正的历史又有谁能保证确实存在过?如果你想看到真正的历史,那你就去看纪录片;如果你想看真正的文艺,那你就去买伍迪艾伦的全集;照本宣科你嫌枯燥,纯粹文艺你又嫌小众,送你两个字:走您!

    点名表扬:张丰毅,金城武。
