UKUHLELA

Ku-polemic yakamuva yomhleli ngefilimu umgxeki uKenneth Turan ku Los Angeles Times, uyicacisa bha imizwa yakhe ngokwethusa kwanamuhla nokuthi kungani “kungezona ezokuzijabulisa.”

Uthi ukushona kukaGeorge Romero noTobe Hooper kwamenza wacabanga ukuthi kungani ezizwa ngale ndlela. Lokho kuhambisana nokwesekwa kwebhokisi lamabhokisi kwakamuva kumenza angabaze izinkolelo zakhe nokuthi kungani abagxeki beshayela ihlombe "ama-movie asabisayo" ngabasindayo abanjengo-Oscar. "

I-Holy Siskel ne-Ebert konke futhi!

Okokuqala, ake ngibhekane nokugxekwa kuka-Oscar "heavyweights" nokuthi zingena kanjani kabi kulesi simemezelo sakhe. Ifilimu enemali enkulu kunayo yonke futhi owine ama-Oscar amaningi nayo iba yi-movie esabisayo.

Ngaphandle kokuthi uyi-Google, ngeke ngisinikeze isihloko kuze kube sekupheleni, kepha nansi amazwibela:

Yiba nami lapha, owesifazane osemusha kufanele akhuthazelele, yedwa, isixuku esinenzondo esingagcini ngokubulala izinkulungwane kodwa sihlasele ikhaya laso sihlukumeza umndeni waso, sishise nomuzi waso wonke. Awume, kuningi; ngaphansi, i-heroine yethu nayo inecala lokuxhashazwa kwabantu ngokuya ngelungelo labo.

Nakhu omunye “ongesabisi 'owine i-Oscar: umkhumbi ongashabalali othwele izinkulungwane zokuphahlazeka ngenxa yephutha lomuntu, ushiya abagibeli ukuthi bakhethe ukuthi ngubani ozosindiswa futhi ongeke. Ekugcineni, abantu abayi-1,517 bangafa ngendlela ebabazekayo ngezindlela ezahlukahlukene kufaka phakathi ukuminza, i-hypothermia noma ukuwela ezinhlangothini ezinkulu ezijikelezayo.

Uma ungakakutholi okwamanje, i-movie yokuqala Gone With the Wind, kanti eyesibili ngekaJames Cameron Titanic. Konje, Titanic ungumnqobi wesibili omkhulu kunabo bonke osizini luka-Oscar.

Ungangisola ngokukhohlisa izingqikithi zamafilimu angenhla ukuze zivumelane nezidingo zami. Kepha uma ngikhuluma iqiniso, lezi zindaba, izimo, nezingxabano ziyinsakavukela kumafilimu anamuhla “asabekayo”: abantu bafakwa ezimweni ezimbi kakhulu, kumele basinde futhi ekugcineni, kufe wonke umuntu. Kepha maka ithegi ecwebezelayo ekuqaleni maphakathi nasekugcineni futhi unompetha we-Academy Award.

Angazi ukuthi yiziphi izincazelo zikaTuran zalawa ma-movie, kepha ukumangalela ukuthi i-ilk yakhe yamukela amafilimu asabisayo muva nje kubaphikisi baka-Oscar kufiphaza umugqa omuhle phakathi kokuthusayo ngombono womuntu nalokho okungekho komunye umuntu.

Ucaphuna uNick Pinkerton, “'Ifilimu lohlobo alincintisani nefilimu yokuhlonishwa manje, kepha empeleni iba yifilimu yodumo.'”

“Manje” ekubeni kuyigama eliyisihluthulelo kuleso sitatimende ngicabanga ukuthi, nganoma yisiphi isizathu, izikhathi zanamuhla zibonwa njengendawo yokuguqula uhlobo kanti “ezakudala” azinjalo.

Kodwa uma sikhuluma iqiniso uTuran uthi wayekuthanda ukukhombisa ukuthula kukaLon Chaney “Phantom,” nomdidiyeli uDavid F. Friedman (Idili Legazi, Izinkulungwane ezimbili zamaManiac!). Futhi waze wanikeza nokubuyekezwa okuhle Ubusuku babaPhilayo abaFileyo lapho eyibona, ethi “'isesandleni sayo ngokuphelele,' 'wabhala,“ ukuthi kuyashaqisa ukuphuma enkundleni yemidlalo bese uthola abantu behamba sengathi akwenziwanga lutho olukhethekile.' ”

"'Uthola lokho okukhokhelayo Ubusuku Babafileyo Abaphilayo, ifilimu ethusayo elinamandla okusabisa ngokoqobo. Imnandi kanjani. '”

Akazi ukuthi umgxeki, yilokho kanye abalandeli be-horror abafuna ukuphuma nakho uma bebuka ifilimu namuhla.

Kepha uthi bekuyiyo The I-Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) lokho kwashintsha umqondo wakhe. Ifilimu elidala lesabelomali sikaTobe Hooper "belilokhu lifuna izinto eziyimfucuza," futhi kusukela lapho abenzi bamafilimu kulolu hlobo bathatha "indlela enosizi emsebenzini wabo."

Ubuye acaphune iBritish Board of Film Classification obit kaHopper ifilimu yakhe eyayiyisiqalo “sezithombe zobulili ezingcolile zobudlova,” manje athi uyaziqonda.

Angiqiniseki ukuthi ngabe "izithombe zocansi" zisetshenziswa encazelweni eyenziwe isitayela noma cha ngoba kusho ukuvusa umuntu ocansini ngokubonisa izitho zocansi ngendlela evusa inkanuko. Ngikholwa ukuthi i- "Titanic" yayinobunqunu obuningi lobo "Texas Chainsaw," kepha ngithola ingqikithi yalokho akushoyo.

Ukuguqula lowo munwe ubonise ukubulawa kwabantu nge-visceral kuyiphuzu elivumelekile. Kepha futhi, kufanele futhi ngikhumbuze uMnu Turan ukuthi ukunconywa kwakhe Ubusuku babaPhilayo abaFileyo ube ne-gore ngaphezulu kune- I-Texas Chainsaw (1974) kanye noMbazi Halloween kuhlangene.

Kwakungu-1980 NgoLwesihlanu 13th lokho kushintshe konke lokho ngenxa yokusebenza ngokucophelela kukaTom Savini, ngaleyo ndlela kukhuthaze imiphumela yokwakheka evaliwe yabafana namantombazane ukuthi baqhubeke nokudlala ngegazi elingamanga noSilly Putty wokucija amaphupho abo

UTuran uthi lezi zithombe zifika kuye njengomgxeki ngokomuntu siqu, uyazwelana nosizi lwabalingiswa “… Ngithinteka kakhulu, futhi ngisengozini enkulu, ezithombeni ezisesibukweni; zingena ekujuleni nami. ”

Akaneme neze ngezithombe zalawa mafilimu, “zingethusa kakhulu phakathi kwamabili, futhi angikujabuleli ukuzwa.”

Mnu Turan, siyakuthola. Yebo, siyakwenza. Thina njengabalandeli asikhululekile ngokuphelele ngaleyo mizwa ngokwethu, kepha yilokho kuzizwa esikufisayo. Siyazi ukuthi akuyona into yangempela. Ake ngigcizelele iphuzu futhi, siyazi ukuthi ALIYONA iqiniso! Eqinisweni, angicabangi ukuthi noma yimuphi umuntu omdala oya kumabhayisikobho ucabanga ukuthi lokhu abakubonayo kuyiqiniso, kepha okuhle kungakwenza ukhohlwe imizuzu engama-90 ukuthi akunjalo.

Abalandeli bamaHorror abasuki enkundleni yemidlalo bexoxa ngesimo samanje sodlame emhlabeni wangempela nokuthi kanjani Jigsaw ibonise ngokunembile imiphumela ye-Iron Maiden. Siphe isikweletu esincane.

Ingxoxo ngemiphumela ekhethekile iyingxenye yalokho esikhuluma ngakho njengoba siphuma, kodwa okubaluleke kakhulu, sizama ukuthola ukuhlangana phakathi kwegazi nomlayezo. Isibonelo i- “Jigsaw” ihlola ukuthi abantu bazokuhamba ibanga elingakanani ukuzisindisa ekufeni, ikakhulukazi uma wenze ubugebengu ngokwakho futhi ungajeziswa. Izicupho ziwuphawu lokuphindisela, ukwaneliseka kokubona umuntu ethweswe icala ngamacala abo. Kuyindlela eyeqisayo yokwenza izinto, kepha kuhle ukubheka. Njengomkhumbi omkhulu kaCameron ocwila ngaphansi kwamagagasi ancela abagibeli abaphilayo ngokuvuka kwawo.

Yonke i-movie ethusayo eyake yenziwa ukuhlola lokho esikwesabayo nokuthi sisabela kanjani. Ama-protagonists ethu abhekene nezimo ezifanayo ahlangabezana nazo kakhulu amaqhawe angewona uhlobo. Kepha siya kwelinye ibanga futhi senza amaNazi futhi UStreep ukhokhela isinqumo sakhe ku- "Sophie's Choice," kunokuba abavumele ukuthi bathathe indlela elula yokuphuma. Nathi siyazwelana nalokho akwenze ezandleni zezinto ezingaphezu kwamandla akhe, kepha ngandlela thile, ukuphela kwakhe kuzizwa kuyigwala kakhulu. “I-Jigsaw” ithatha lezo zingxabano ezifanayo futhi ithi, “yenza ukhetho lwakho,” futhi icishe ibe yimbi njengomdlalo wamaNazi, kepha nokho idala ingxoxo, ngendlela efanayo ne-Oscar-winner.

Ukuthi ukubeka i-Oscar ngaphambi kwesihloko kukwenza kujabulise noma kubuyise kakhulu kusazobonakala ngoba ama-movie asabisayo awavamile ukuthola lelo thuba lokuncintisana ezigabeni eziyinhloko, kepha avuna ukunconywa kwabanye, okungukuthi imiphumela ekhethekile, igazi lefilimu ethusayo. Ngiyabonga, NgoLwesihlanu 13th ukuqala lokho kuhlobo lwesimanje futhi Ku-American Werewolf eLondon ngokuwina. 

Ekugcineni, uTuran uthi, “Kwabanye abantu, mhlawumbe, ukubukela ukwethuka kusebenza njengesiphazamiso sohlobo oluthile lokugudluka kulokho okuyiqiniso, inselelo yokwenza kahle futhi usinde njengokudla i-fuguity yaseJapan, inhlanzi engakubulala uma inhlanhla ayiyinhle. ”

UMnu Turan ngamazwi we-sheet elilodwa le-Craven classic Indlu Yokugcina Kwesobunxele, “Yibhayisikobho kuphela, ukunyakaza nje” qhubeka ukuphinda lokho.

Ukuvuma ukuthi iminyaka ingadlala indima ekudeleleni kwakhe lolu hlobo kuyimpendulo ethembekile engxenyeni kaTuran. Yebo, nami nginecala lokwahlulela izinto eziguqukile ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Umculo we-hip-hop kimi namuhla uvele uzwakale njengochungechunge lwe-misogyny ecacile yezocansi nobudlova, kepha nami, njengomgxeki, ngibheka ukwakheka kwayo komculo, ukushaya okwenza izinyawo zami zishaye noma iminwe yami iqhume. Ukusuka lapho ngiya ngaphandle ngibona ukuthi uma kukhona ikhwalithi engxenyeni eyodwa yengoma, kungenzeka ukuthi kukhona ubuhlakani obuthile emsebenzini. .

Ngicabanga ukuthi leyo yingxenye yokuzijabulisa. Ukwazi ukwazisa izakhi ezahlukahlukene kulowo ophakathi noma ngabe angivumelani nezinye izingxenye zawo.Ukuzijabulisa kukwakhiwa kabusha kwemodeli hhayi kuphela kepha yonke imininingwane ekunamathisela endaweni yayo.

UTuran uthi, “Ayikho imizwa enzima ngabadali, ayikho inkinga ngabalandeli; kimi, ngidinga nje ukuhlala kude. Kude kude le."

Yisitatimende esidabukisayo leso, engicabanga ukuthi kunomkhawulo. Bheka, IT ayikho mayelana nehlaya elisabisayo lokubulala izingane. Akunjalo. Imayelana neqembu lokungafaneleki okuhlangana ndawonye, ​​kungavumeli ukwesaba kwabo kubalawule futhi ekugcineni basebenzise lawo mandla ukunqoba okubi. Ukwesaba kweqa kanye nemilenze edabukile kukhona njengamafutha: Imizwa ethokozisayo esivame ukuyicindezela emhlabeni wangempela, kepha ebumnyameni, phakathi kwabanye, ekugcineni kulungile. Futhi emva kwalokho, siyahleka, hhayi ngoba umbono ungasile, kepha ngoba "sithola" ihlaya.

Siya kumabhayisikobho ngento eyodwa nento eyodwa kuphela: Okuxakayo ngokungafani nemibono kaMnu Turan mayelana nokwethuka, ukuzijabulisa.

Uma i-movie ihamba nomlayezo, ikwazi ukungena kokwesaba kwethu isebenzisa imiphumela yokwakheka ebonakalayo noma ukungezwani okuhle okwakudala; uyakwazi ukusikhipha ezintweni ezesabekayo zomhlaba futhi asenze sihleke nganoma yisiphi isizathu. Uma le mibandela ihlangatshezwa, ngicabanga ukuthi ifilimu ethusayo ifanelwe ukunconywa.

Imizwelo nokungaphatheki kahle kuyingxenye yomdlalo, ngaphandle kwalezo ebesizobheka esikrinini esingenalutho. AmaHorror nakanjani akhuluma ngazo zombili lezo zinto futhi abanye bakwenza kahle kakhulu.

Futhi ukuthi njengoba besho, is ukuzijabulisa, futhi njengoba uNkulunkulu engufakazi wethu, izinhliziyo zethu ezinegazi zizoqhubeka nokuqhubeka.
