　The conundrum for Pinter and director Karel Reisz was how to translate John Fowles' enigmatic novel to the screen without losing the author's blend of the Victorian world with a modern sensibility.

　Their destination is never clear and neither is the film's. This creates something of a conundrum for the critic, because while meandering in a film is usually considered a textbook flaw, here it was the director's very intent.

Hotel Chevalier (2007)

這不是騎士旅館的火柴盒，韋式電影的小朋友怎麼可能學壞抽菸，這是騎士旅館的朱古力。

Whatever happens in the end, I don't wanna lose you as my friend.

I promise, I will never be your friend. No matter what. Ever.

看完十三分鐘的騎士旅館，第一個感想就是 Wes Anderson 終於長大了！韋式電影居然有性愛鏡頭！本來以為是曾取 Angela Lindvall 當海報女郎的羅曼柯波拉劇本，或是吃騙天下美女的 Jason Schwartzman 效法波蘭斯基行使編導至高無上權利，親身臨幸女主角胴體，都不是，這是 Wes 自己寫的劇本，兩天半殺青，個人電腦剪接完成。

Wes Anderson 電影裡有性愛鏡頭，就像迪士尼的王子與公主某天突然發現幹砲很有趣，般是個突破。我們先來回顧 Wes 歷年作品裡的男女情愛：

脫線沖天炮 → Luke Wilson 和汽車旅館外籍女傭躲在棉被下摸來摸去。

都是愛情惹的禍 → Jason Schwartzman 不是少男不思春，比爾莫瑞是壞人。

天才一族 → 葛妮絲和比爾莫瑞的婚姻純屬有名無實，有名無實的有名無實。

海海人生 → Owen Wilson 和比爾莫瑞為了同性戀女記者凱特布蘭琪爭風吃醋。

騎士旅館 Jason 和娜塔莉波波的男女情愛較以往更為成熟，但還是很幼稚，不幼稚就不是韋式電影了，想像比較早熟的五六年級小學生，下課無聊模仿電視裡男女主角若即若離若有似無的對話。

說到 Jason Schwartzman 和波蘭斯基，哪天多舛命運比起變態電影毫不遜色的波蘭斯基，成為傳記片主人翁，Jason 絕對是頭號人選，為了矮小身材，以及那張猥褻又想裝正經的表情。

最後娜塔莉波波終於讓我覺得脫離小大人了，而幫助她長大的導演名叫 Wes Anderson。

娜塔莉波波的手提箱野生鳥獸圖案由韋思安德森弟弟，艾瑞克安德森親手繪製。

Wes 招牌的俯看鏡頭，因為電影裡總是充滿兒童小擺飾。

Savage Grace (2007)

for her unashamed red hair and freckles

毫不化妝遮掩的歲月體斑

茱莉安摩兒和凱特布蘭琪，是二十一世紀唯一有本事讓我同時在美貌和演技起雞皮疙瘩，忍不住往其石榴裙鑽的女演員。

茱莉安目前四十八歲，全世界最美麗的下顎就長在她臉上。凱特目前三十九歲，兩人同樣較晚開起好萊塢大門，絕命追殺令三十三歲，伊莉莎白二十八歲，都被奧斯卡婊過。若比照茱莉安保養功力和生涯發展，我們的凱特阿姐至少還有十年的巔峰期可以為影迷留下更多讚嘆。

連接茱莉安摩兒和凱特布蘭琪的關鍵人物，就是黃金年代小刺客 Eddie Redmayne，變態眼神和泛紅雀斑，他會成為一個好演員。至於治療同性戀和弒母情節，我會很鄉愿地歸咎於愛，不同於正常家庭的愛，反正導演也沒把故事說清楚。

本片真是的茱莉安迷絕佳視覺饗宴，貴婦的工作就是每天花枝招展，我最喜歡貝克蘭一家於酒吧會面，茱莉安穿的香檳金，和紅頭髮及毫不遮掩的體斑襯出最致命的浮華陷阱。

Interviewing Anna Karina on Thu 21 June 2001　掌聲鼓勵鼓勵！

Singing songs

Q: These days are you singing any songs from the period of 'Sous le soleil, exactement.'?

時至今日你還會唱愛在太陽下時期的香頌嗎？

AK: Yes, in the concerts we're doing right now yes. It's a song by Serge Gainsbourg.

演唱會就有唱呀！賽吉甘斯柏幫我寫的。

Q: Was there one film you most enjoyed making with Godard?

和高達最愉快的合作經驗是哪一部電影？

AK: That's a good question because, actually, doing a film with Jean-Luc was always a great pleasure and they're all so different, so which one did I enjoy the most? Maybe, 'A Woman is a Woman.' Because it was one of the first ones. But really I cannot say, because they're all so different. He seems so serious, but you always had great fun. You know he was a big sportif. He liked to run - he could do everything better than anybody else. Oh yes it's true. He would say to me, "Not good enough." I would say, "Well, I had vertigo." And he would say, "Go on. Climb up there." I said, "Really, Jean-Luc, you know." And everything that Jean-Paul would do in the film, Jean-Luc would do it ten times better. No it's really true. The only thing they had in common was to read l'Equipe, the....

問得好，因為和高達拍片總是趣味盎然，每次都帶給我不同的體驗，所以哪一部電影最愉快呀？我會說《女人就是女人》。因為那是我的高達初體驗，但還是得強調每部高達電影都是愉快初體驗。他看起來很認真，卻同時享受拍攝過程。他是好小子，他喜歡跑步，任何事他都可以做得比任何人好。是的，他會說：「精益求精。」我回答：「我跟詹姆士史都華一樣眩暈。」「衝到最高點。」「打達～人家累了啦！」楊波貝蒙每做一個動作，高達都可以做得好十倍。倒也未必，他們唯一可以做得一樣好的就是閱讀《團隊》。

CM: The sports newspaper.

一種體育報紙。

AK: Which I love myself because my grandfather, he loved sport too and when I was a kid he would take me to the games. I know everything about football. And everything about rugby. Yeah yeah.

我祖父也是個運動迷，常帶小安娜看比賽。我對足球、橄欖球都很熟稔，耶耶！

CM: I should say that Godard gave a very limited number of interviews at Cannes about Éloge de l'amour this year, and one of them was to l'Equipe. Which is a hilarious interview actually.

我必須說高達在今年坎城新片《愛情研究院》願意接受的訪談很少，其中一家就是《團隊》。很精采的訪談。

Q: Do you feel you could have played the part Bardot played in 'Le Mépris'?

妳覺得原本碧姬芭度在《輕蔑》的角色應該給妳演嗎？

按：筆者也很想問這問題。

AK: No, that was for Brigitte. Non non. But he used a lot of the dialogues from our private lives. Smart guy, hein?

不覺得，那是專為芭杜量身訂做的賣肉花瓶。但高達用了很多之前我們私底下的對話，賤男人。

Q: Was there any different preparation for 'Made in USA' where there's slightly more action, where you were playing a secret agent?

飾演《美國製造》中的特務，準備工作是否有別於其他電影？因為那片有些武打場景。

AK: Let's keep it secret.

商業機密。

Q: Was there a script before the film started?

電影開拍前有劇本嗎？

AK: Non. But there was a script inside Jean-Luc Godard's head. But we knew about the story. He would say, "Well, it's so and so and so." Then he would say, "But." We had the dialogues just before. He would write it every day. He had that kind of structure in his head, and a kind of story, and probably the dialogue too.

沒有，高達腦子裡倒是有一本。我們連故事大綱都渾然不知，他會說：「先這樣，然後那樣，最後就是這樣。」並不時穿插：「可是！」手上拿的對白手稿還熱呼呼，他天天寫劇本，劇情結構和故事大綱就從腦子裡取出，對白應該也是。

Q: Which is the favourite song you sang in a Godard film?

最喜歡的高達香頌。

AK: 'Jamais, je ne.... jamais je te... t'aimerais toujours, Oh mon amour.' Oh we've had too much wine (laughter). It's a song I'm singing in Pierrot le Fou. I'm singing, 'Maline de chance, et jamais je ne te dirai que je t'aimerais toujours. Oh mon amour.' Je l'ai dit!

「我們的愛永誌不逾，直到天荒地老海枯石爛，貝蒙吾愛～」我們當時玩得有點瘋 (哈)。那是《狂人比埃洛》原聲帶的曲目之一「愛情線告急，愛情線告急，我想我可能無法永遠愛你～」

[Applause]

掌聲鼓勵鼓勵。

Q: What was your working relationship with Jean-Paul Belmondo, for it seems to be such a rapport on the screen.

和楊波貝蒙關係如何？你們看起來似乎合作愉快。

AK: It was love. But love, you know, like, give me your hand...Love.

那是愛，扮家家酒式的愛。

Q: What are your feelings about the films he made after he worked with you?

對於楊波貝蒙之後拍的電影有何高見？

按：楊波貝蒙拍完新浪潮電影，轉型搞笑動作明星，想像一個不會功夫的成龍 (鼻子都很大)。「我不想當法國影壇的武打老爹。」楊波貝蒙如此自嘲。

AK: What a bad question. I hate it. No, no. What I'm very happy about is that today all your young people here are still coming to see a film of Jean-Luc Godard, and with me and that is really great. That's a present, that's a cadeau. It's something that I appreciate a lot and I love it. Because it means we didn't do that for nothing and it's still living and that's great. That's fantastic.

這是什麼蠢問題！我討厭斃那些鬼電影了。你們這些年輕人今天還願意到這裡欣賞高達電影，問老娘問題，實在太令我感動了。那代表我們過去的努力經得起光陰考驗，酷炫。

CM: And we appreciate a real lot that you came here tonight, Anna Karina. Thank you very much indeed.

最後讓我們再次感謝安娜小姐今晚的參與，感謝您。

[Applause]

全場歡聲雷動。
