3.《麦田里的反叛者》（Rebel in the Rye）

上映时间：9月15日（美国）

JD Salinger remains the great literary enigma of the 21st Century. Why did this author of such prodigious talent ultimately choose to release only one novel and three short story collections in his lifetime? Why did he stop publishing 45 years before his death and become a virtual recluse? Rebel in the Rye attempts an answer. It shows Salinger (Nicholas Hoult) as he hones his craft at Columbia University in the late 1930s and develops the phony-hating character of Holden Caulfield before then fighting in World War Two for three years – an experience that profoundly unsettled the young author and cast a shadow over his subsequent work. Kevin Spacey plays Whit Burnett, the Columbia professor and editor of Story magazine who helped shape the young Salinger's prose style, while Sarah Paulson is the literary agent who championed his work.
J•D•塞林格仍然是21世纪文学界最大的谜团。这位作家具有惊世才华，为什么最终却决定一生只出版一部小说和三部短篇小说集呢？为什么他在去世前45年就停止出书，成为一名遁世者呢？《麦田里的反叛者》试图对这些问题作出回答。本片讲述了上世纪30年代末期，塞林格（尼古拉斯•霍尔特饰）在哥伦比亚大学磨炼写作技能，并创作出仇视虚伪的霍尔顿•考尔菲德这一角色，之后在二战中战斗3年。这段战争经历让年轻的塞林格深感不安，并给他的后续创作蒙上了一层阴影。凯文•斯派西扮演的惠特•伯内特是哥大教授兼《故事》杂志编辑，在他的帮助下，塞林格年轻时形成了自己的散文风格。莎拉•保罗森饰演支持塞林格作品的著作代理人。
