舞孃俱樂部 (BURLESQUE)

為了尋夢,來自愛荷華州的鄉下姑娘阿莉〈克莉斯汀 飾〉來到洛城打拼,並在泰絲〈雪兒 飾〉經營不善的舞孃俱樂部打工。初期雖然只是當個女侍,但阿莉始終憧憬著有天能站上舞台演出。阿莉出色的嗓音讓她得到泰絲的注意,而她的精彩演出不但讓差點歇業的舞孃俱樂部大爆滿,甚至連英俊多金的企業小開都提出優渥合約,要讓她麻雀變鳳凰!

雖然這部片在IMDb只拿到6.2, 不過我覺得跟拿到7.2分的Chicago來相比毫不遜色, 甚至在歌舞上也可以比美7.7分的Moulin rouge, 會得到相對低分我想是演員在演技上跟劇本上的差距吧.

不過回歸到歌舞片的本質, 至少我會看這部戲就是要去享受舒服的歌跟華麗的舞, 這一點BURLESQUE倒是非常棒. 兩位女主角 Cher 跟 Christina Aguilera 在歌喉上完全是兩種調性, Cher 是沈厚磁性的, 而 Christina Aguilera 則是清亮高昂的, 這正好是一老一少的對比.

服裝上就是傳統美式, 甚至Vegas式的舞孃華服, 對我來說其實並沒有太多的意外或驚豔, 反倒是一種理所當然的自然.

而導演的運鏡方式由於大多數場景都在室內, 在舞台週邊, 因此說實話也沒有太多可以著墨的地方, 並沒有什麼大膽的用色或是取景技巧, 有的只是刻意利用角度營造出熱鬧與歡樂. 唯一讓我有印象的是Christina Aguilera在清晨的小酒吧裡頭在椅子上沐浴晨光盡情唱歌的場景, 運用低角度讓光影更具體的手法值得我在攝影時當作借鏡.

兩位主要的男性角色部份, Stanley Tucci 大概被定型在Gay造型師了, 如同在The Devil Wears Prada之中一樣, 只是一個是時尚的, 一個是俗麗的. 至於Cam Gigandet, 帥歸帥啦, 其實沒看到他有怎樣的表現, 其實也很合理, 畢竟他不是這部戲的重點.

這部戲更值得一提的是劇中有不少原創的歌曲, 也由兩位女主角演繹的非常合適. 其中Cher 的那首 「You Haven’t seen the Last of Me」是真的有很強烈的打動我.

所以我對這部戲的評價是:「就算不看, 也可以買原聲帶」

You Haven’t seen the Last of Me
Feeling broken
Barely holding on
But there’s just something so strong
Somewhere inside me
And I am down but I’ll get up again
Don’t count me out just yet

I’ve been brought down to my knees
And I’ve been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I’ll be back
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven’t seen the last of me
You haven’t seen the last of me

They can say that
I won’t stay around
But I’m gonna stand my ground
You’re not gonna stop me
You don’t know me
You don’t know who I am
Don’t count me out so fast

I’ve been brought down to my knees
And I’ve been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I’ll be back
Back on my feet
This is far from over
You haven’t seen the last of me

There will be no fade out
This is not the end
I’m down now
But i’ll be standing tall again
Times are hard but
I was built tough
I’m gonna show you all what I’m made of

I’ve been brought down to my knees
And I’ve been pushed way past the point of breaking
But I can take it
I’ll be back
Back on my feet
This is far from over
I am far from over
You haven’t seen the last of me

No no
I’m not going nowhere
I’m staying right here
Oh no
You won’t see me begging
I’m not taking my bow
Can’t stop me
It’s not the end
You haven’t seen the last of me
Oh no
You haven’t seen the last of me
You haven’t seen the last of me
