摘要:

通过对华语电影导演的风云人物和标志性人物黄建新、李安、王家卫和王颖四位导演的电影作品个案的简单枚举和勾勒式描述,可以发现,华语电影从20世纪80年代初期以来至21世纪头十年的大约三十年间,经历了一个思想性探索的崛起及之后不断衰减的过程,到目前为止,已经出现了思想性危机。这一过程的主要背景是,中国大陆以改革开放为主要标志的现代化进程及其不断深化。与此同时,不能忽略的则是国际冷战思维的纠缠及其难以为继,由美国引发的世界性金融危机和国际霸主行径的彰显对美国形象的损毁。黄建新导演的影片《求求你表扬我》(2004)是一部最具标志性和表征意义的作品。这位曾以极大热情关注现实生活,勇于探讨严肃的社会文化问题,表现出很强的社会责任感,具有强烈创新意识和探索精神的导演,却在这部影片中给观众提出了一个假问题,一个并不需要思考的问题。联系到李安、王家卫等导演的作品,将使我们意识到,过去那些国内外大的政治背景已付东流,不可逆转,而自此之后,华语电影能否适时地进行转型,完成由政治性的思想探索向学术性的思想开发转换,仍在人们的热切期待之中。

Abstract:

〖WTBZ]Huang Jianxin, Li An, Wang Jiawei and Wang Ying are four wellknown representative directors in the Chineselanguage film. A brief study or an outline of the works directed by them can discover that, during a long period of about 30 years from the early 1980s to the first 10 years of the 21st century, the Chineselanguage film underwent a process from the rise of ideological quest to the subsequent attenuation of this quest. Up to now, it has gone so far as to display an ideological crisis. The main background of the process is the fact that the modernization of the Chinese mainland, which takes the reform and openingup as the chief principle, is continuously deepening. At the same time, the entanglement of cold war mentality in the world are difficult to continue, and the worldwide financial crisis driven by the United States as well as its national overlord behaviors demonstrate a damage for American image, which are also not able to be neglected. The film Gimme Kudos (2004) directed by Huang Jianxin can be rated as one of the most landmarked or most symbolic works. He once showed a great concern for realistic life, and had the courage to probe into the serous problems of society and culture, thus putting up a strong sense of social responsibility and possessing the great ability of innovative consciousness and quest spirit. But now, in this film, he puts forward a false question, which doesn' t need answering or thinking. With this film, other films directed by Li An, Wang Jiawei, etc. are associated. Their works awake us to a sense of how those huge political backgrounds both at home and abroad are gone forever. From that on, people have being looking forward to the transformation of the Chineselanguage film from political thinking quest to academic thinking development.
