摘要: 中国当下颇为繁盛的喜剧电影创作与中国社会现实的关系暨喜剧电影的现实性与现实主义精神等问题无疑值得深入探析。以电影的“寓言性”为研究视角,以“现实文本化”和“主题寄寓性”这两个“寓言性”特点为切入点,对当下中国喜剧电影中有代表性的三种喜剧亚类型的艺术特点、寓言性以及与现实的关系等进行分析阐释可知:喜剧是当下电影与现实发生关系,即“接地气”的重要电影类型,这也是喜剧得到受众喜爱,票房屡创新高的一个重要原因。不同类型的喜剧对现实的折射或“寓言化”各有不同,甚至也有歪曲和扭曲,但无论是黑色喜剧的价值解构和社会缝合,还是都市爱情轻喜剧的中产阶级超现实梦幻,抑或是冯氏喜剧的世俗关怀,都是当下中国现实某一方面的影像化、寓言化呈现。通过分析喜剧电影对现实的寓言化表意以及对社会中人的造梦治愈和心灵抚慰等功能,我们可以进一步认识喜剧在精神文化层面上与我们这个“娱乐化”的“大喜剧时代”产生的复杂关系。

Abstract: The relationship between the considerably booming comedy films and the social reality in China and other issues such as the realistic nature and realistic spirit of comedy films are without doubt worthy of indepth exploration and analysis. This paper, in the perspective of the “allegorization” of films, takes “reality textualization” and “theme allegorization” as the starting point, analyzes and expounds the artistic features of three representative subtypes of Chinese comedies and the relationship between allegorization and reality, concludes that comedy as an important type of film connects with reality, i.e. “links to the grassroots”, which is also a crucial reason why comedies are favored by audience and break box office records time again. Different types of comedies vary in reflecting reality or allegorizing in spite of some distortions and warps. Nevertheless, be it a black comedy which aims at value deconstruction and social stitching, or a metropolis love comedy which carries middle class′s dreams and imagination beyond reality, or a Fengstyled comedy which expresses secular concern, each presents allegorized images of “one or another type of reality” in China. Through the ideological analysis of functions of comedy films such as its allegorized expression of reality, healing by dreammaking and soul consolation to the social men, we can further understand the irremovable complicated relationship between comedies and the “entertainmentoriented” “era of grand comedies” on spiritual and cultural levels.
