    Shine On


     
    Safety pins holding up the things that make you mine.
    About your hair, you needn't care. You look beautiful all of the time.

    Shine, shine, shine on! Yes, won't you shine, shine on?

    Your magazines ripping people at the seams but you still read.
    I must admit, I don't believe in it, but I see how you get sucked in.

    Shine, shine, shine on! Yes, won't you shine, shine on? Sha la la la!
    Shine, shine, shine on! Yes, won't you shine, shine on! Because you're not done

    But why do you bite the hand that feeds you?
    Why do you, why do you bite the hand that feeds you?

    Shine, shine, shine on! Yes, won't you shine, shine on? Sha la la la!
    Shine, shine, shine on! Yes, won't you shine, shine on!

    Safety pins holding up the things that make you mine
    About your hair, you needn't care. You look beautiful all of the time


    KK Fighting!

    Talking about <第六感生死缘> - Everyone will die, but not will love...

    被秀秀Space上发布的经典对白所吸引,两口气看完了这部十年前的影片《Meet Joe Blank》。这样的好片儿实在太少了,如此精彩又被这样埋没的片子更是少之又少。

    片名被翻译为生死缘、今世缘,但我个人觉得影片的主题远远超过了爱情。与死亡相关的主题往往会涉及探讨人生的意义,本片就是这样。在我看来,从头到尾都是在通过不同角度刻画一个人物:Bill Parrish。从IMDB抄写一篇评论先放这里:

    A three hour film about death. It doesn't sound like much when you say it like that, but trust me, Meet Joe Black is an outstanding film and is without doubt one of the most underrated little gems I have ever seen. The film is beautiful in every regards; the photography, the sets, the music and the performances, especially the performances (我要在这里加一个“情节” - 引人入胜,扣人心弦,脱俗又在情理之中). The last time Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt were on screen together it was the equally sublime Legends of the Fall, here it is another sublime film and once again they are putting in some of their best work. The characters that they play, Bill Parrish and Death, bring out a fantastic chemistry between the two performers, especially in the more comedic moments when they two are getting to know each other(Bill从死神手中夺回女儿那一场也毫不逊色). However, while death is the main theme of the film, director Martin Brest remembers to filter optimism into his wonderful tale in the shape of a love story between Parrish's daughter (played by the beautiful Claire Forlani) and Death himself. This results in one of the most gorgeous coupling in recent years as well as one of the most erotically intense love scenes I have ever watched.

    Director Brest presents the film in a more artistically filtered view than most other directors might have done. The love scene is done without nudity with close ups on the actors throughout. The striking presentation of the lighting in the film is also fantastic, with a lovely golden glow pouring of the screen and lastly Thomas Newman's music is quite simply marvelous. Films like The Green Mile, The Shawshank Redemption and American Beauty which have featured music by this outstanding composer have been enhanced by the haunting, lyrical and moving melodies he has composed and this film is no exception. The mixture of piano and orchestra builds to an uplifting and emotional pull that cements his position as one of the best music composers working in modern film today.

    The three hour running time would appears to be problematic, but alas it is not. In fact like another sweeping romantic epic, Titanic, you will not feel the time going in. The three hours fly by and not only that, like the Oscar winning epic, this is a film that makes one instantly want to re-watch it again and again. Meet Joe Black is a wonderful mixture of comedy, romance and drama and is done exceedingly well. Brad Pitt puts in one of his finest performances as Death finds himself enchanted by human emotions and then finds himself making a deeply human choice at the end of the film and then there is Hopkins. One of cinema's finest actors no matter what he is in, he shows with his complex range of emotions in his performance there is more to him than playing Hannibal Lecter. His performance here restrained and quite frankly very well done. It is perhaps one of his best acting performances. His Shakespeare background obviously coming in handy for a film that contains many a Shakespearean like moment.

    The film, while not a flop, was not the box office hit that was expected, especially considering the main casting, but if you can make up your own mind, do watch Meet Joe Black. This is a wonderful film and is a personal favorite of mine.

    <第六感生死缘> - Everyone will die, but not will love...
     
         经人推荐,看了个好片,自以为天下好片虽未全部看过,但八八九九还是有的,可惜这部10年前的片子却没有网罗到阿。看后觉得非常值得一看,我认为此电影中堪称经典的有两处:一是父亲对女儿在飞机上的话语,另一最美好的时刻,就是与邂逅的susan说再见而频频回眸,之后被两、三辆车子轮番撞击,那一刻就是爱与死、美与死、幸福与苦涩的纠葛。

    以下是父亲对女儿在飞机上的经典对话:
    SUSAN
    You're not listening --
     
    PARRISH
    Oh yes, I am. Not an ounce of excitement, not a whisper of a thrill, this relationship has all the passion of a pair of titmice.
     
    SUSAN
    Don't get dirty, Dad --
     
    PARRISH
    Well, it worries me. I want you to get swept away. I want you to levitate. I want you to sing with rapture and dance like a dervish.
     
    SUSAN
    That's all?
     
    PARRISH
    Be deliriously happy. Or at least leave yourself open to be.
     
    SUSAN
    'Be deliriously happy'. I'm going to do my upmost --
     
    PARRISH
    I know it's a cornball thing but love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. If you don't start with that, what are you going to end up with? I say fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy and who'll love you the same way back. And how do you find him? Forget your head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing any heart. Run the risk, if you get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth is there is no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love -- well, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try. Because if you haven't tried, you haven't lived.
     
    SUSAN
    Bravo.
     
    PARRISH
    Aw, you're tough.
     
    SUSAN
    I'm sorry. But give it to me again. The short version.
     
    PARRISH
    Stay open. Who knows? Lightning could strike.

    翻译后的中文大概是:我要你尽情体验,沉浸爱中,忘我地雀跃欢唱。。。爱是激情,是迷恋,是不可或缺的。。。疯狂去爱一个同样迷恋你的人。怎样去寻找?要用心去寻找,而不是理智,否则人生将失去意义。。。这辈子若没深爱过,就枉此一生。要勇于尝试,否则等于白活了。。。敞开心门,期待心扉悸动。”
     
    这可能就是一个父亲能给女儿的最好的爱情良言了吧!
     
    电影中十年前的皮特比起现在“好莱坞第一性感男人”的他要青涩很多,不过也正是这份青涩,这份纯真无邪的美少年形象反倒让这个掌握生与死的死神更加生动,宛若误入凡间的天使、以一个不晓世故的小孩的眼光审视感觉着这个有情有爱有泪有笑的世界。电影的结尾,父亲那精彩的生命致词,父女同舞不舍的亲情,桥头那段仿入隔世的爱情,都伴随着烟花的繁丽化作深深的人生足迹……

    Always There

    Always There

    Secret Garden

    When I'm less than I should be
    And I just can't face the day
    When darkness falls around me
    And I just cannot find my way
    When my eyes don't clearly see
    And I stumble through it all
    You and I lean upon, you keep me strong
    And you rise me when I fall

    You are there when I most need you
    You are there so constantly
    You come shining through, you always do
    You are always there for me

    When life brings me to my knees
    When my back's against the wall
    You are standing there right with me
    Just to keep me standing tall
    Though a burden I may be
    You don't weary, you don't rest
    You are reaching out to carry me
    And I know I'm heaven-blest

    You are there when I most need you
    You are there so constantly
    You come shining through, you always do
    You are always there for me

    You are there when I most need you
    You are there so constantly
    You come shining through, you always do
    You are always there for me

    Every ninght I most need you
    There so constantly
    You come shining through, you always do
    You are always there for me


    This is one of my favourate songs. When I was enjoying it the other day, KK was attracted by the beautiful melody and voice. Listening it through, again she got touched by the affecting lyric. Some songs are doomed to be classical as long as there is the passion; some stories are destined to be immortal as long as there is the belief.

    彭林武代表中国在Como参加F1摩托艇世锦赛

     
            早上在湖边跑步时看到了彭林武大哥,他很热情地和我聊了两句 嘿嘿
            据他说下午2:30入场式。最佳观看位置在公园对面那一侧的湖边,赛艇会绕着Como这边的湖转圈。另外他还提到说今天检查严格,不能让我进去参观——这给下午参观工作站的活动增加了一点不确定性。
            从我们楼下的广告牌看到上午10:30将开始热身。以下转自Sohu:
      
            近日,记者从黄山获悉,经国家体育总局批准,我国目前唯一获得F1摩托艇世界锦标赛参赛资格的“中国F1水上第一人”--黄山中国摩托艇运动学校高级教练、国际级运动健将彭林武,将代表中国出征7月16日开始的2006年F1摩托艇世界锦标赛。 
       日前彭林武已启程去法国,先在那里进行20多天的强化训练,然后参加在意大利科莫举行的世界锦标赛。之前,在5月27日举行的世界一级方程式(F1)摩托艇锦标赛葡萄牙波尔蒂芒站的排位赛中,彭林武曾遗憾地与正赛失之交臂。
      据了解,彭林武从1981年开始从事摩托艇运动,1993年到黄山太平湖摩托艇训练学校。他曾多次代表中国参加世界锦标赛,1984年首次获得全国冠军,1989年获OSY400级世界锦标赛第五名、1993年获超级明星对抗赛冠军,2001年获O-125级世界锦标赛冠军,是我国目前唯一持有国际摩联颁发超级摩托艇驾驶执照的一级方程式运动员。
      据介绍,“F1摩托艇世界锦标赛”是由国际摩托艇联盟(简称国际摩联)于1981年发起组织的,它和奥运会、世界杯足球赛、F1汽车赛一道,被公认为具有最大影响力和最高收视率的世界四大体育赛事。“F1摩托艇世锦赛”是系列赛事,其惊险性和观赏性在于其风驰电掣最高250公里/小时的超高速和从0到100公里/小时加速只要3.5秒钟,代表了水上摩托艇运动的最高水平。其驾驶员技术、摩托艇与发动机技术三者结合,代表了人类向速度极限挑战的一种超越,是现代文明中高速度、高科技的天然载体和象征。
     
          后记:彭林武最终取得了第14名,这是中国F1摩托艇在世锦赛上的最好成绩。我们组成的啦啦队引起了媒体的关注,据深圳电视台的记者说给了特写,在26个国家进行了直播。 期待着明年7月份在Como举行的下一届世锦赛,祝愿中国运动员再创新高。

    Nessun Dorma

     
    Il Principe:
    Nessun dorma!... Nessun dorma!...
    Tu pure, o Principessa,
    nella tua fredda stanza
    guardi le stelle che tremano
    d'amore e di speranza!
    Ma il mio mistero
    è chiuso in me,
    il nome mio nessun saprà!
    No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dirò,
    quando la luce splenderà!
    Ed il mio bacio scoglierà
    il silenzio che ti fa mia!
     
    Coro donne:
    Il nome suo nessun saprà...
    E noi dovrem ahimè, morir, morir!...
     
    Il Principe:
    Dilegua, o notte! tramontate, stelle!
    Tramontate, stelle! All'alba vincerò!
    Vincerò! Vincerò!
     
    The Prince:
    No one sleeps!... No one sleeps!... *)
    Nor do you, o princess
    in your cold room
    Look the stars that tremble
    with love and hope!
    But my mystery
    it is locked in me,
    my name no one will know!
    No, no, only on your mouth I’ll reveal it,
    when dawn's light will shine!
    My kiss will break the silence
    and make you mine!
     
    Female choir:
    His name no one will know...
    And we shall have, alas, to die, to die...!
     
    The Prince:
    Disperse, o night! Set, you stars!
    Set, you stars! With the dawn I will win!
    I'll win! I'll win!
    Il Principe:
    Nessun dorma!... Nessun dorma!...
    Tu pure, o Principessa,
    nella tua fredda stanza
    guardi le stelle che tremano
    d'amore e di speranza!
    Ma il mio mistero
    è chiuso in me,
    il nome mio nessun saprà!
    No, no, sulla tua bocca lo dirò,
    quando la luce splenderà!
    Ed il mio bacio scoglierà
    il silenzio che ti fa mia!
     
    Coro donne:
    Il nome suo nessun saprà...
    E noi dovrem ahimè, morir, morir!...
     
    Il Principe:
    Dilegua, o notte! tramontate, stelle!
    Tramontate, stelle! All'alba vincerò!
    Vincerò! Vincerò!
     
    公主:
    今夜无人入眠,无人入眠 *)
    公主呀,你也不能
    在你冰凉的房间里
    看着夜空的星星闪烁
    闪烁着爱和希望
    我的秘密
    却深锁在心里
    没有人会知道我是谁!
    不,不,我将在你的嘴里说出
    迎着第一缕曙光
    我的吻将打破静寂
    将你的心俘获!
     
     
    女声合唱:
    他的名字谁都不会知道
    我们应该,唉,死去!
     
    公主:
    消逝吧黑夜!隐去吧,星辰!
    隐去!伴随着晨曦我要胜利!
    我要胜利!要胜利!
