第六代导演贾樟柯夺威尼斯金狮奖 [ 2006-09-11 09:45 ]
9月10日凌晨,全世界的影迷都看到了这一幕:中国第六代导演贾樟柯将沉甸甸的金狮奖举过头顶,脸上依旧是略显腼腆的笑容,只是多了几分自信……一直以来,贾樟柯都把视角投向了中国普通社会阶层的生存状态,从早期的边缘人物影片《小武》到关注进城打工仔的《世界》,贾导的镜头都在倾诉着一种人性关怀。一如既往,记录片《三峡好人》以平民史诗的姿态讲述了在三峡勤劳工作的工人。贾樟柯另一部影片《东》同样取材三峡背景,入选威尼斯地平线单元。 |

China's director Jia Zhang-ke poses with the
Golden Lion for Best Film. A poetic film about the effects of
China's Three Gorges Dam on the lives of ordinary people, "Still
Life" by Jia, has won the Golden Lion for Best Film at the 63rd
Venice Film Festival, the jury announced at a gala finale.
[AFP] | A poetic film about the construction
of China's Three Gorges Dam
and its effects on villagers facing state-sanctioned flooding, on the
Golden Lion for Best Film at
the 63rd Venice Film Festival.
"Still
Life " (Sanxia Haoren) by Jia Zhang-ke, was a last-minute
"surprise film" added to the 11-day festival, and left more fancied
high-budget movies in its wake.
"We all know that China is
undergoing enormous change and daily life is experiencing change as a
consequence, and I focused my film on this," Zhang-ke told a news
conference.
"Still Life" recounts the story of people who return to
a rural village during the social upheaval caused by the giant Three
Gorges project. . The 36-year-old director said that following his
triumph in Venice, he would continue to make films "which
express the problems of the weakest strata of society."
"The
jury was surprised at the quality of the film that we saw," said jury
president Catherine Deneuve, whose fellow judges included filmmakers Bigas
Luna, Park Chan-wook, and Cameron Crowe.
Deneuve in particular
cited "the beauty of the scenography, the quality of the story. We were
very touched, we were very surprised, we were very moved. I know that
everyone hasn't seen the film yet, but it's a very, very special
film."
A second film by Zhang-ke, "Dong ," a documentary about workers building
the dam, featured in the festival's Horizons section.
The
independent filmmaker's 2000 picture "Platform" and "The World" in 2004
have previously been selected in competition at the Venice
festival.
