老片回顾，Notting Hill

可能最近新片实在越来越浅薄，虽说动不动就几亿美刀往里砸，但俺觉得越来越没看头。尤其是奥斯卡，唉，也许近来那些评委的脑袋锈豆了。与其把时间浪费在打听不辣的皮特／珍妮弗的口香糖恋情和跟着莱昂纳多在飞行者里的色，不如重品老片的柔情。
Notting Hill给人，尤其事业平庸生活不顺的男人的梦是爱情可以跨越两个天壤之别的社会阶层。一个是生活平淡的濒临倒闭小书店老板，一个则是几乎世人皆知的明星，在威廉的书店，两人的生活轨迹碰撞到了一起。但是威廉并非糟的一无是处，知心的朋友可可爱的妹妹，还有疯疯癫癫的室友总是在关心和帮助着他。安娜的生活却不是看上去的那么美好，世俗对演员的看待以及让她心烦的男友只能依靠手术做出来的美貌来掩饰。但是爱情发生了，却一次次被世俗无形的干扰着。也许是不同的背景早已注定两人不同的生活哲学很难相溶。虽然结局是有情人终成眷属，但两人却要忍受身份迥异的感情波折。也许故事想诉说的是只要真心去爱，爱情就没有门第和世俗的差异，没有任何人可以阻挡。但这一切，只是摄影棚里的现代童话罢了。
但愿人长久，千里共婵娟

港产烂片，太多

看了一个"借兵"，一个"瘦身"，一个"异度空间"。前两个是冲着大飞去的，后一个是冲着哥哥去的。三个看完，让俺觉得都没啥新意。总之一句话，烂片一箩筐。三个一直的特点是宣传资料说的，又是悬念呀，又是惊悚，又是大牌明星呀。结果看过之后大失所望。刚看"借兵"的演员表，一看那么多熟人，以为蛮不错。什么黄浩然，宁静，刘兆铭，吴廷烨。俺是抱着看无间道的心情来看的，唉，浪费一晚上。在"瘦身"中大飞演技也实属一般。秋生哥的烂电影，这也不是第一个第二个了，幸好做好心理准备。可哥哥的谢幕作那么烂，的确对不住观众。实际也不是演的烂，实在是剧本烂，导演烂。本来就不复杂的情节，还故弄玄虚，结尾接开的谜底牵强附会。要说是荒诞剧，也要事先告诉人家嘛。反正港片这么烂也不是一天两天烂到这个档次的。炒作出一堆有名没名的 "明星"，再拍一堆垃圾电影。弄不好再发个什么金像。唉，谁让我不张记性，以后再也不看麦子善导的电影了，一定不！

the eagles / hotel california

on a dark desert highway.
cool wind in my hair.
warm smell of colitas rising
up through the air up ahead in the distance.
i saw a shimmering light
my head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
i had to stop for the night
there she stood in the doorway
i heard the mission bell
and i was thinking to myself

this could be heaven or this could be hell
then she lit up a candle
and she showed me the way
there were voices down in corridor
i thought i heard them say......
welcome to the hotel california
such a lovely place (such a lovely face)
there's plenty of rooms at the
hotel california
any time of year you can find it here

her mind is tiffany-twisted
she got the mercedes-benz
she got a lot of pretty,
pretty boys that she calls friends
how they dance in the courtyard
sweet summer sweat
some dance to remember
some dance to forget
so i called up the captain
please bring me my wine
he said we haven't had that spirit
here since nineteen sixty nine
and still those voices are

calling from far away
wake you up in the middle of the night
just to hear them say......
welcome to the hotel
calofornia such a lovely place
(such a loveely face)
they livin'it up at the hotel california
what a nice surprise bring your alibis
mirrors on the ceilling
the pink champagne on ice

and she said we are all just prisoners
here of our own device
and in the master's chambers
they gathered for the feast
they stab it with their steely knives
but they just can't kill the beast

last thing i remember,
i was running for the door
i had to find the passage back
to the place i was before
relax said programmed to receive
you can check out any time you like
but you can never leave
