The Grand Budapest Hotel
The Grand Budapest Hotel recounts the adventures of Gustave H (Ralph Fiennes), a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa (Tony Revolori), the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. Acting as a kind of father figure, M. Gustave leads the resourceful Zero on a journey that involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting; the battle for an enormous family fortune; a desperate chase on motorcycles, trains, sleds and skis; and the sweetest confection of a love affair all against the backdrop of a suddenly and dramatically changing Continent. Inspired by the writings of Stefan Zweig, The Grand Budapest Hotel recreates a bygone era through its arresting visuals and sparkling dialogue. The charm and vibrant colors of the film gradually darken with a sense of melancholy as the forces of history conspire against our hero and his vanishing way of life. Written and directed by Wes Anderson, whose films include The Royal Tenenbaums , Moonrise Kingdom , and Fantastic Mr. Fox . The film also stars Jude Law, Tilda Swinton, Edward Norton, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Adrian Brody, Saoirse Ronan, Lea Seydoux, Bill Murray and Owen Wilson. -
Chinglish
"Marvelous . . . the conceit is elegantly of a piece, yet Hwang is able to keep turning it in on itself to reveal new ambiguities, absurdities, subversions and paradoxes."—Chicago Reader "Hwang's plays collectively chart the evolving definition of what it is to be an 'American.' . . . His art has illuminated and anticipated our ongoing national story with a sensibility unlike any other in the American theater."—Frank Rich Springing from the author's personal experiences in China over the past five years, Chinglish follows a Midwestern American businessman desperately seeking to score a lucrative contact for his family's firm as he travels to China only to discover how much he doesn't understand. Named for the unique and often comical third language that evolves from attempts to translate Chinese signs into English, Chinglish explores the challenges of doing business in a culture whose language—and ways of communicating—are worlds apart from our own. David Henry Hwang's "best new work since M. Butterfly, this shrewd, timely and razor-sharp comedy" (Chicago Tribune) received its Broadway premiere in fall 2011. -
多桑——吳念真電影劇本
我們走後十分鐘,他拆掉身上所有的管線、針頭、開窗躍下。當我們看著他一身泥巴、草屑的身體被一堆人圍著,急救,亂成一團時,我好像看到他和往常一樣,把所有人弄得不知所措之後,雙手插進口袋,吹著口哨,若無其事地從窗口走開,然後瀟灑地唱著:「可憐的我的青春,悲哀的命運……」 -

The Pride
Winner of the 2009 John Whiting Award for drama. An incredibly bold and mature first play, reminiscent of Noel Coward's Design For Living and Kevin Elyot's My Night With Reg. Alternating between 1958 and 2008, and featuring the same three people, forever thirty-something, living similar but radically different lives, The Pride examines changing attitudes to sexuality over a period of 50 years, looking at intimacy, identity and the courage it takes to be who you really are. Some things may change but the complexities of the human heart remain eternal. -
形同陌路的时刻
彼得·汉德克所著的《形同陌路的时刻(精)》包含汉德克三个剧本《不理性的人终将消亡》《形同陌路的时刻》《筹划生命的永恒》。书中,各种人物轮番登台亮相,他们在这个中心相互碰面,相互妨碍,共同组成群体,然后又使之解体。在作者充满寓意和讽喻的笔下,这个包罗万象、千奇百怪、最终变得昏暗的世界舞台或许就是汉德克所感受的现实世界的微缩。
