反败为胜：2004波土顿红袜传奇之战

　　From the harsh, nomadic life on the tundra to an uncertain future with five children. Four years in the life of a strong and charismatic woman.
　　Life is raw and harsh out in the Arctic tundra, where young Ivanna lives a nomadic life with her five children. A tough and charismatic woman who is put to the test when she has to give up the traditional life of the Nenets people and move to the city. The climate is changing, her reindeers are dying, and her husband, Gena, has turned into an alcoholic because of his job at a gas plant. And even though Ivanna can put both him - and everyone else - in their place with her killer gaze and no-nonsense attitude, she harbours a desire to liberate herself from the violent relationship. Four years in Ivanna’s life have become a formidable film created with an artist’s eye for the material texture of the world where an image of a sleeping child, three fish and a hungry cat almost become a cosmic motif. This is vital, physical film art with an unforgettable woman at its centre. Meanwhile, Ivanna’s letters, which are read aloud by herself, lift her story above the raging of the elements. Director Renato Borrayo Serrano, who was born in Guatemala and lives in Russia, has created a drama about liberation and a melancholy requiem about a bygone way of life.

　　位于加拿大曼尼托巴省的城镇温尼伯，听来遥远陌生，在盖·马汀的掌镜下，却生成了乡愁的有机体。透过梦呓的旁白说书、迷幻写实的黑白光影，导演亲自带路，娓娓道来家乡的历史、自然与人文踪迹，以及谜样传说。建构故事与剪接纪实之余，导演对家乡的抒情神往与奇想，让影片依附着神秘和追忆穿越时空，恍如隔世却又亲密温馨。
　　现代, 加拿大 Manitoba 省 Winnipeg 市~ 导演 Guy Maddin 独坐在火车上, 正准备离开黑白色的家乡 Winnipeg, 和处处监管着他一举一动的母亲~ 一路上, 他在半梦半醒中忆述故乡的种种往事, 一些充满回忆的建筑物, 还有童年时与家人相处的点点滴滴~
　　评语
　　加拿大导演 Guy Maddin 最近几部电影都沾上一点自传气息, “Cowards Bend the Knees” (弱者无腰骨) [2003] 以自己为主角讲冰上曲棍球, 上一部长片 “Brand Upon the Brain!” (追忆少年狂) [2006] 仍充当主角诉说一个奇情侦探故事, 今次索性以自己的童年和家乡 Winnipeg 的历史为题, 拍出一部充满奇想的自传电影~ 又或者如映后摄影师兼监制 Jody Shapiro 及导演在访问中所言, 称之为一部 “幻想纪录片” (docu-fantasia) 或更加合适~
　　Guy Maddin 一向扮默片残片的新潮复古风格在这里依然处处可见, 不过这手法在此更成为一种实用而贴切的表现形式, 配合有如印象主义式的超快速剪接和导演本人不停喃喃自语的内心独白, 以表达主角 Guy Maddin (Darcy Fehr 饰) 半梦半醒的混乱思绪和复杂错乱的回忆片段~ 黑白菲林和残片朦胧不清的效果, 也正好切合长年严寒飘雪, 色彩单调的城市 Winnipeg 的风貌~
　　在 “My Winnipeg” 故事中反覆重现的种种元素, 简直像是心理分析理论的教材, 例如缠绕心头不去的童年往事, 儿子对母亲又爱又怕的矛盾关系~ 那些一闪即逝的字幕卡就如被抑压的旧记忆, 主角对河流交汇处和母亲双腿的迷恋, 就如他一直潜藏在心底的 fixation~
　　不过, 要是太严肃和理论性地分析这电影, 或会忽略这其实是一部非常有趣, 非常感人, 非常富创意, 刻意让真实与虚构混驳不清的独特作品~ 电影一方面把 Winnipeg 这个天气异常寒冷的偏远城市写成一个饶富诗意, 满街都是梦游者的地方, 又把城中的历史大事串连成一个个私人的回忆, 对一些具纪录价值的建筑物加上个人的情感投射, 爸爸的冰上曲棍球场和母亲的发廊固然是的场所, 就连镇上的名人们也成为追忆依恋的对象~

　　His passion for combat sports wasn't keeping him alive so survival mode kicked in for Michael and he was forced to take normal jobs, including working in factories, slaughterhouses, demolition companies; in addition to working as an upholsterer, postman, tiler, plasterer, and salesman. In his later years though, Michael's career as a UFC fighter would take off and he would become one of the sports fan favorites, but with any combat sport comes the shrapnel of getting kicked and punched in the face on a nightly basis. In a controversial fight against the steroid-induced Victor Belfort, the unthinkable would happen to change the course of Bisping's life forever. He would suffer a detached retina from a blow and kick to the head that would disfigure and scar the fighter forever, threatening to end a career he has sacrificed everything for. With a wife and kids that love him, they plead for the battered and bruised fighter to hang up the gloves, as they feel he has nothing left to prove. But in the end that decision is left to only one man: Michael Bisping.

Having successfully tracked down NBA enigma Bryant Reeves in 2018’s festival hit FINDING BIG COUNTRY, director Kathleen S. Jayme now investigates a sprawling true sports crime: who’s responsible for robbing us of the Vancouver Grizzlies?
In revisiting the short history of the bad luck bears who racked up all the wrong kinds of records (see that 23-game losing streak in the 1995-1996 season), Jayme’s documentary doubles as a testament to the enduring passion of true teal blue fans. It’s this passion that fuels a dogged odyssey that finds Jayme infiltrating corridors of power at the NBA’s head offices and knocking on doors as she connects the dots and reconnects with the heroes and villains of Grizzlies lore, including former players like Shareef Abdur-Rahim and Mike Bibby, and the team’s architect, Stu Jackson.
The level of access is astonishing—there are “gets” that we don’t dare reveal—and so too is the candour of the interviewees. What emerges is a rousing story about the irrational fervour of fandom and sport’s unique ability to create identity, strengthen family ties, and forge community.

　　经过上百年的发展，胶片技术从蛮荒走到成熟，电影人采用化学摄影法创造了一个又一个经典和视觉奇迹。而当时间逐渐走向21世纪时，化学摄影法趋近临界点，几无上升空间，且越来越无法应对电影工业对新技术和全新拍摄手法、理念的诉求。与此同时，数字摄影方兴未艾，正以前所未有的势头进入传统技术固若金汤的电影领域。从Dogma 95对手提DV的使用，到乔治•卢卡斯大胆的HD摄影之应用，伴随着“顽固派”和“革新派”的政治和讨论，数字摄影蚕食着传统胶片的领土，逐渐成为当今电影工业的主流。在这一过程中，配光、摄影、剪辑等工作也相继受到冲击和影响。
　　这是一场全新的革命，是对充满各种可能性的未来满怀信心的展望……
