Yesterday 《昨天》
Imagine there were no Lennon and McCartney songs. It’s easy if you try. It was easy for Richard ‘Love Actually’ Curtis, anyway, who scripted this high-concept romantic comedy directed by Danny ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ Boyle. Himesh Patel stars as Jack Malik, an aspiring singer-songwriter who has no fans except his loyal best friend Ellie (Lily James). That all changes when a cosmic storm dents the space-time continuum, leaving Jack in a world where The Beatles never existed, but where he can still remember all of their songs. All he has to do is claim those songs as his own and megastardom beckons. HeyUGuys hails Yesterday as “utterly joyous and smile-inducing throughout. It’s a glorious celebration of the intoxicating beauty of music, human connection and the beautiful British summertime.”
想象一下,这个世界上没有列侬和麦卡特尼的歌,这样你在歌坛上崭露头角会不会更容易?至少对于《真爱至上》的导演理查德·柯蒂斯来说是如此。这部高概念浪漫喜剧由柯蒂斯担任编剧,丹尼·博伊尔担任导演,博伊尔曾执导过《贫民窟的百万富翁》。希米什·帕特尔饰演胸怀抱负的创作型歌手杰克·马利克,他的粉丝只有他忠诚的好友艾丽(莉莉·詹姆斯饰演)一个人。一场宇宙风暴让时空连续体产生了凹痕,于是一切都改变了。杰克置身于一个甲壳虫乐队从未存在过的世界,而杰克却能记得甲壳虫所有的歌曲。他只需将这些歌曲都占为己有,就可以成为超级巨星。HeyUGuys网站称赞这部电影“从头到尾都非常欢乐。这是一首颂扬令人陶醉的音乐之美、人情纽带和英国夏日美景的赞歌。”
high-concept: 高概念的,高概念电影指具有视觉形象的吸引力、充分的市场商机、简单扼要的情节主轴与剧情铺陈以求大多数观众的理解与接受的电影。高概念电影必须由著名导演执导或明星主演,甚至两者兼备。
