The Father (2020)
《困在時間里的父親》
Take dementia - a truly horrific mental condition which affects millions of people worldwide. An important topic, for sure, but not necessarily the kind of thing you'd choose to watch a movie about after a hard day at work.
老年癡呆癥——這一影響著全球百萬人群，令人聞之色變的可怕精神疾病，無疑是一重要的課題，當(dāng)然，它也不是你會在辛勤工作了一天想要回家打開的電影題材。
It's confusing. You wonder if you've missed something. You can't keep track of who's who, or what's what. Names and faces get mixed up. The timeline is unclear.
你亂了，你在想是不是自己又錯過了什么關(guān)鍵信息，你甚至分不清誰是誰，這個和那個。姓名和臉開始對不上號，時間線也像一團亂麻。
But, of course, this is precisely the point of The Father. Anthony's worsening dementia means that he can't get a grasp on what's going on around him.
這其實就是《困在時間里的父親》拍攝的初衷。你跟隨的是安東尼的視線，患有癡呆癥的安東尼開始搞不清周圍都發(fā)生了什么。
"What I wanted to do was not tell the story from the outside, but the inside, and put the audience in an active position, as if they were in the main character's head,"
我不是想從旁觀者的角度講述故事，而是進入到患者的腦子里，讓觀眾體驗患者的世界，就好像他們在患者的腦子里一樣。
"I wanted The Father to be a bit more than a story, but like an experience, as if you [the viewer] were the one losing your bearings."
我希望《困在時間里的父親》不是一個故事這么簡單，它更像是一種體驗，觀眾身臨其中，體會（患者）那種不知所措的感覺。
"It was so powerful, and so simple, so direct, so concise, so compact," he says. "I've been fortunate, in the last few years I've been involved with some wonderful films, but this was really unique."
它是那么的充滿力量，簡單，直接，簡明，緊湊，近幾年來我參與了許多很出色的電影的拍攝，很幸運能有這次機會，因為這一次（的角色）是那么的獨一無二。
Owen Gleiberman of Variety： "Hopkins is flat-out stunning. He acts, for a while, with grizzled charm and roaring certainty, but the quality that holds his performance together, is a cosmic confusion laced with terror. Anthony is losing more than his memory - he's losing himself."
《綜藝》雜志的Owen Gleiberman評價：霍普金斯直接的表演直擊人心。片中有一段，他表現(xiàn)出灰白頭發(fā)的年長魅力以及氣定神閑的自信。然而，真正將他的表演融合為一體的是那個恐懼與混亂交織的世界。安東尼失去的不僅是他的記憶，他在失去他自己。
