上星期五晚去了灣仔會展看 IFPI
頒獎,本來對這類沒有羅力威的頒獎禮沒甚興趣,只是友人在網上取得兩張免費入場券,不想浪費,於是便倍她一行。頒獎禮八時開始,我六時多離開公司,步行至
灣仔和友人會合,到位於謝斐道一間意大利小餐館 Al Dente 吃簡單的晚餐。這餐廳我看過 Open Rice
的評論,似乎都很不錯,又因為它的位置接近會展,所以特別來試試。
後記: 忘
記了提,當晚的表演嘉賓是杜德偉。唱了兩首歌,第一首是和呂方合唱《只因我太癡》,第二首是《無心傷害》,我是第一次聽,聽著那歌詞,很喜歡。特別這幾
句,「愛太多空隙,受傷容易,互信互愛才是唯一,對你的付出,都放在心裡,我始終這樣珍惜,怎會忘記。」還有最後的 "How I miss you
tonight..."
還有便是當晚 encore 了三次,第二次 encore 倫永亮出來,帶領觀眾站起來跳舞,揭起高潮。這首《但願人長久》,在倫永亮的鋼琴伴奏下清唱,聽起來很寧靜,很舒服。
"I
admire the spirit behind the long March because it represented that
generation -- the total commitment, their ideal..they move like a
regiment of army ants. Driven by blind conviction, totally oblivious of
place, time.. yet being able to leave their indelible mark in history. "
"I envy their simplicity, power, strength, something l dont think we can achieve at this stage and age....
but then who knows, maybe you can, in yours.."
教室外,學生在排演莎士比亞名劇Romeo and Juliet《羅蜜歐與朱麗葉》,藉著羅蜜歐之口,說出愛情力量之偉大:
"With love like wings did I oer' perch this wall
With stony spirit cannot hold love out
and what love can do, that dares love attempt
therefore thy kinsmen are no stop to me"
後記:寫了那《有人喜歡藍》的觀後感後,昨天下午看畢明的專欄談及這電影,才知道這電影中有一首老歌,叫 "You always hurt the one
you
love"《你總是傷害你愛的人》,再看那歌詞,的確十分傷感,與這電影的主題亦很貼切。 兩個明明相愛的人,卻偏偏會 end up 傷害了對方。原來,面對陌生人,或者
是普通朋友,我們會得提防,小心保護自己。面對自己所愛的人,卻愈是會鬆懈,以為對方會得諒解,有時說的話,做的事,不知不覺超出了界線,傷害了對方而不自
知。同樣,因為自己對對方亦不設防,因而也容易受傷,這傷害往往比其他人做的更深,更痛。 看了這文章,再聽這歌,想起從前種種,恍然大悟,有釋然的感覺。好想對曾經愛過,也傷害過我的人說一聲,我明白了,從此,我只會記注你們對我的好,就像電
影中,這歌首次響起之時,Dean 手執 ukelele,和 Cindy 載歌載舞。但願他們永遠都會記得那時的甜蜜和溫馨,忘記之後的傷痛。
同樣,對於我曾經愛過,或仍愛著的人(們),假如我曾經傷害了你(們),很對不起,只因正如這歌說的,
"So, if I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you most of all."
"You always hurt the one you love"
-- from the movie "Blue Valentine" (original by Connie Francis)
You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
You always take the sweetest rose
and crush it till the petals fall
You always break the kindest heart
with a hasty word you can't recall
So, if I broke your heart last night
It's because I love you most of all
最
後,不得不提,電影的配樂由日本動畫大師宮崎駿的御用配樂師久石讓負責,他早前為《姨媽的後現代生活》,《禮儀師之奏鳴曲》做的音樂我已是非常欣賞。今次
為《惡人》所做的配樂,沿用他一向簡單,低沉的樂章,十分配合電影孤獨的氣氛。電影完場之時隨字幕響起的歌曲 " Your
Story",由福原美穗主唱,歌詞凄美,切合電影情節,再一次令我感動落淚。
最後一句,"How I love you so...." 餘音杳杳,更令我久久不能自已 ...
Your Story 詞:胡麻本麗莎 曲:久石讓 唱:福原美穗
It's dark and cold, out where we stand alone Beneath the ground, down deep the ocean What have I done? What have you done wrong? Our deep embrace, will you remember? The silence's gone.
There used to be an empty space There was no fear there's nothing to chase Until you came and opened the way And fear that loneliness will tear my heart away
Come stay and hear the hearts of melody The warmth of skin, the gentle kisses Could this be love?
Sometimes I ask, why things have gone so wrong? I've waited long, believed for so long My angel face, has slept with tears in her eyes "Don't leave me please", will I desert her ..How it was done?
She has no one, no place to go She dreamed to have a place to belong What we both long a place, sweet home If I could un-wind the time and stay with you
Still dark and cold, out where we stand alone Beneath the ground, down deep the ocean We both have lied, and kissed a sad good-bye Your deepest love remains in my heart,
