ON POETIC CINEMA AND FEMALE CINEMA 谈诗意哲理电影与女性拍电影
ON POETIC CINEMA 谈诗意哲理电影
You can think of film as a piece of education,
Most people think film could be entertainment.
But I think film could be philosophy too
I always feel filmmaker could be a poet, or can be a philosopher
or you can implement philosophic or poetic understanding of human life into your film.
And that is my pursuit actually.
That is to bring understanding of life from a philosophical point of view or perspective, and doing it in a poetic way.
电影可以是一场教育
大多人认为电影是娱乐
我认为电影也可以孕育哲学思想
我一直认为电影人可以是诗人 哲人
对生命要有诗意和哲理性的认识并注入电影
这就是我的电影追求
将生命的哲理诗意的表达于我的电影里
ON FEMALE FILMMAKING 女性拍电影
You know I teach American Cinema and Culture,
I constantly think: “Can I just find some female filmmakers and celebrate their work”?
And of course I discovered a few of them
Next week I am going to introduce Maya Daren, who is an experimental artist,
Who is very innovative in filmmaking.
I ultimately think women have the great potential to become great filmmakers.
I think we are very sensitive, intuitive and very visual.
We think very deeply,
We should just be daring enough to endure the darkness
while we are working inside the tunnel.
Because a lot of time you are not supported financially, you are alone,
You don’t even have a family when you do this kind of work.
So therefore we should stand the test of God, of art.
so we can come out as a true artist
在教学美国电影与文化过程中
常常希望找到更多女性导演先驱 品读她们的力作
我的确找到几位
下周我将介绍马娅黛伦－美国实验电影先驱
她开创了新的电影语言
我坚信女性能有深厚潜质成为伟大导演
女性很敏感 直觉 视觉
而且思想有深度
我们应该有毅力忍受创作境况中的黑暗
通常你没得到资助
你独自前行
你专注于这个事业甚至没成家
只有接受上帝的考验和艺术的考验
才有可能练就成为真正的艺术家
