视频简介
阿尔莫多瓦编导的第二部作品，安东尼奥·班德拉斯出演配角。影片中再次体现出了那种及时行乐以及性乱的题材，阿尔莫多瓦展开了以后贯穿他作品的“性”主题：性迷乱、性倒错、同性恋、乱伦等等。对这些不容于道德主义的主题，阿尔莫多瓦采取了一种宽容甚至是理解的暧昧态度，赋予这些"不堪入目"的行为一种扭曲的美感和同情的解释。正是这种暧昧适时的传达出从政治和历史重压下释放不久的西班牙民众的迷惑与混乱。 对于班德拉斯来讲，如果说因为腿伤没实现当足球运动员的梦还有些无奈的话，那么他盲打误撞成了电影明星显然是幸运的。而后由西班牙著名导演阿莫多瓦培养出来了一名优秀演员。从1982年到1990年，他在六部阿莫多瓦的影片中担任了主角。从1982年的《情感迷宫》，1983年的《高跟鞋》，1988年的《濒临崩溃的女人》直到1990年的《绑上绑下》，班德拉斯已经成为阿莫多瓦影片中不可缺少...。电影改编自泽田新与浅井莲次合作的漫画作品，由桥本环奈饰演柔弱可爱粉色短发的主角菊野溪，以取得日商簿记检定2级为目标，一边上专科学校，一边努力打工。但打工的内容是职业杀手，溪是指名率第一的超厉害的杀手，不管是什么样手段再残忍的对手都能使命必达，达成目标后离开现场的溪，收到了史上最糟糕的委托……。Eburi is a 36 year-old man. Nothing enthuses him any more. While being drunk, he promises to contribute a story to a magazine. When he sobers down, he decides to write about the life of a salaried employee like himself who is very ordinary, not particularly talented. The following is his story: In 1949, Eburi gets married to Natsuko. His monthly salary is 8,000 yen and hers 4,000 yen. Therefore, both have to work to support themselves. Eburi has developed a habituIl tendency to pester around when he gets drunk. One year after their marriage, son Shosuke is born. In 1959, Eburi's mother dies in despair of her husband who has become listless due to the several ups and downs of gaining big profits and going bankrupt. His father is still alive and Eburi is enable to find a way to pay his father's debts. He is doubtful if he can make his wife and child happy. Nevertheless, he has somehow managed to survive so far, living in one of the houses at the employee housing quarters. He gives the title "The Elegant Life of Mr. Everyman" to his story of half novel and half essay style. When it is published, it receives the Naoki Literary Prize (the award given in memory of popular writer Naoki Sanjugo). At a party to celebrate his award, he gets drunk and pesters around. Notes The film is based on a novel written in the style of an essay under the same title by Yamaguchi Hitomi, depicting everyday life of a man categorized as "During-the-war Generation" who spent school days during the war and get married to start new life in the struggling post-war era. "Everyman" in the title means an average salaried employee who makes up an overwhelming majority of the city population in Japan, and "The Elegant Life" indicates sarcasm on betterment of the standard of living of ordinary salaried employees accompanied with Japan's economic growth after only a decade from the destroyed post-war period. As depicted in the film, the author Yamaguchi Hitomi was awarded the Naoki Literature Prize for this story. When he established himself well enough to become independent, he quit working as a salaried employee. Director Okamoto Kihachi and the leading actor Kobayashi Keiju belong to the same generation as the author. Exploiting innovative effects such as inserting animation sequences, the film humorously presents compassion of a middle-aged salaried employee. Kobayashi Keiju, who was originally noted for his excellent portrayal of salaried employee, won the best leading actor award of the Mainichi Film Contest for his superb performance in this picture.。
