三场类似的背景,乱七八糟的年代,被迫卷入轰轰烈烈的激情洪流,骤雨飘零般地挣扎。三个性别都不能详的人,三段欲生欲死的爱情。
真是,满目创痍!
当男人不再是男人,他该怎么办?
被扭曲的性别,被扭曲的命运,不得善终,成为一个理所当然的预言?!
当男人不再是男人,他却也不是女人,这样尴尬的位置,就如被摈弃在众生之外。性别是如此重要,确定的性别是如此重要,三部电影,触目惊心的性别!
当男人不再是男人,他是否还能算是人?怎么,他们看上去,比被阉割还要凄惨?无论是精神,还是肉体,他们都失败得那么彻底,从此难以恢复。
《蝴蝶君》给我的打击尤其巨大,正是它促使我问了这样一个问题。生而为人,最怕尴尬,而如此的尴尬,我真的茫然了。
记得《哭泣的游戏》片头,流泻着的是Michael Bolton沧桑暗哑的声音——
When a man loves a woman
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she's bad he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down
When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comfort
Sleep out in the rain
If she said that's the way it ought to be
Well, this man loves a woman
I gave you everything I had
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad
