看完 Les Misérables除了被雨果感動,被故事本身觸動,
佩服從原著到今日電影呈現的各個環節努力的人之外,
我想很多人一定不會否認,扣人心弦的音樂,總是餘音繞樑三日不絕於耳!
Anne Jacqueline Hathaway的演出在片中長度雖不常,
但是當她飾演的Fantine唱起I dreamed a dream時,
才開口不到五秒我已經起雞皮疙瘩了,
還沒有唱完,我眼淚就流下來了。
"I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed."
此回,Anne Hathaway脫穎而出成為2012年度的奧斯卡最佳女配角,
我覺得真的是實至名歸。
有人說她像是茱莉亞羅勃茲和奧黛麗赫本的綜合體,
我覺得還真的有點像呢。
總之,很漂亮。
祖先有過愛爾蘭,法國,更早還有德國與美國原住民的血統,
也許真的把基因庫弄大點,漂亮的孩子出現的機率高些~
(HaHa Dr. Vince Huang I agree with you since last time you told me that...:P)
因為好奇所以在網路上搜尋她的背景,
家庭的環境成長背景絕對與每個人的熟成有一定程度的關係,
她的父親是律師,母親是舞台劇女演員。
讓我驚訝並且覺得有趣的是,
Anne Hathaway的名字的由來,
居然是大文豪莎士比亞其妻之名!
Anne Hathaway小時因為篤信天主教,所以想成為修女。
15歲時得知哥哥Michael是同性戀,
而因為如果接受並且承認哥哥的性向,
會與成為修女的身分有衝突,
在不得承認哥哥的性向等宗教方針下,
放棄了成為修女的念頭。
轉而踏入紐約的演員培養學校,
並演出舞台劇《金粉世界》...

為這齣音樂劇灌注靈魂,絕對是功不可沒的,
是法籍猶太裔音樂劇作曲家Claude-Michel Schönberg,
他出生於1944年7月6日,
同時也身兼唱片錄音師、演員、歌手、流行曲作曲家。

悲慘世界1980在法國首演,1985在英國首演,
而我第一次聽到的版本,就是1995在英國的Royal Albert Hall
所演出的夢幻卡司十周年紀念音樂會。
卡司是真的很夢幻。
舉個例來說,如果你曾經看過迪士尼卡通風中奇緣,
那麼一定不會忘記裡面Pocahontas公主所唱的"Colors of the Wind"
這個好聽的聲音,就是出自Judy Kuhn,
而Judy Kuhn(茱蒂蔻兒)在悲慘世界十周年音樂會裡擔任珂賽特一角。
(順道一提,Colors of the Wind這張原聲帶也於1995年獲得了奧斯卡最佳原創音樂獎!)
而擔任艾波寧的是Lea Salonga
是目前唯一一個在百老匯飾演Époninen角色的亞洲人。
同樣地,她的聲音也曾出現在迪士尼卡通裡。
阿拉丁裡的茉莉公主,還有花木蘭。
"悲慘世界"裡的音樂,除了I dreamed a dream,
與莊嚴的"Do you hear the people sing?"之外,
相當讓人動容的還有酒館老闆之女Époninen所唱的"On My Own"
Lea Salonga在十周年音樂會的演出,雖然不是電影,
只是有舞台效果的音樂會,那個聲音裡面的內心戲實在是張力太強,
讓我為這個愛到卡慘死的孩子掬一把辛酸淚...
"On my own
Pretending he's beside me
All alone
I walk with him 'til morning
Without him,
I feel his arms around me
And when I lose my way, I close my eyes and he has found me
In the rain
The pavement shines like silver
All the lights are misty in the river
In the darkness, the trees are full of starlight
And all I see is him and me forever and forever
And I know
it's only in my mind
That I'm talking to myself and not to him
And although
I know that he is blind
Still I say there's a way for us
I love him
But when the night is over
He is gone
The river's just a river
Without him, the world around me changes
The trees are bare and everywhere the streets are full of strangers
I love him
But every day I'm learning
All my life
I've only been pretending
Without me,
his world will go on turning
The world is full of happiness that I have never known
I love him
I love him
I love him
But only on my own
有興趣的人不妨看看十周年紀念版,是少數有DVD發行的版本。
(最後還有世界各國的尚萬強出現~很妙!)
二十五周年紀念音樂會則有藍光版。
x.x.x
尚萬強與賈維的角色,十周年版本的寇姆·威金森(尚萬強)看起來很仁厚
菲力普·奎斯特(賈維)看起來就很機車(我尤其討厭那個鬢角,哈哈!),
亦正亦邪正義的壞蛋衝突滿滿的角色我覺得他來演很適合。
羅素克洛的臉很熟悉,演得也好,但是就少了一點討厭。
x.x.x
老弟買了"媽媽咪呀"的影片,
我們打算來闔家觀賞。
08年在"Mamma Mia!"中飾演Sophie Sheridan的
美國演員Amanda Seyfried,
就是2012版悲慘世界的成年Cosette呢!
晚點,來好好欣賞一下吧~
