寶通看電影（16）

「Stalker」 And Science Fiction Novel 「Roadside Picnic

《潛行者》與科幻小說《路邊野餐》

 

 In the history of science fiction literary world,

 在世界科幻文壇上，

 Boris and Arkady Strugatsky, the famous Soviet Russian authors, had a great reputation

 前蘇聯的著名作家斯特魯伽茨基兄弟可以說享有極高的聲譽，

 

 and  was popular with wide range of readers.

 並且受到廣泛的讀者喜愛。

 Their works influenced many people and their science fiction novels inspired many latecomers.

 他們的作品也影響了很多人，他們的科幻小說啟發了很多後來者。

 Andrei Tarkovsky, Soviet Russian film director, directed 「Stalker」based on the novel 「Roadside Picnic」 written by Strugatsky brothers.

 前蘇聯的電影大師安德烈·塔可夫斯基執導的《潛行者》就改編自斯特魯伽茨基兄弟的最著名的作品之一《路邊野餐》 

 Besides 「Stalker」, released in 1980, was influenced by this novel,

 除了這部在1980年上映的《潛行者》受到科幻小說《路邊野餐》的影響之外，

 James Cameron who directed the 3D masterpiece 「Avatar」就連好萊塢的3D巨作《阿凡達》的導演詹姆斯·卡梅隆，

 Was accused of plagiarism from 「Noon: 22nd Century」, the brothers books

 也被俄羅斯人指控從斯特魯伽茨基兄弟的作品《正午，22世紀》裡面剽竊抄襲。

 And said by some Russian organization that Cameron, directed 「Avatar」 and 「Titanic」, took the ideas of the Soviet Russian science fiction.

 俄羅斯人認為，這位曾經執導過《鐵達尼號》和《阿凡達》的導演是「蘇聯科幻小說的掠奪者」。

 

 「Stalker」tells that few people go to a forbbiden area, the Zone which closely monitored by the authority.

 《潛行者》這部影片講述的，是幾個人冒著重重的危險潛入到一處被官方嚴密監控的禁區，

 Why risking lot of danger? Step inside a mystic place called the Room  

 為什麼？因為據說一旦進入到這片禁區之中的某一個神秘的房間，

 Said it is able to fulfill one person’s innermost desires… 

 你就可以實現自己內心中最大的人生願望……

 

 Interesting, Strugatsky brothers published the science fiction book titled as 「Roadside Picnic」 in 1973 

 有趣的是，斯特魯伽茨基這兄弟倆在1973年出版的這部《路邊野餐》科幻小說，

 And Tarkovsky’s 「Stalker」 based on the book released in 1980  

 和這部1980年在前蘇聯上映的塔科夫斯基根據這部小說改編的電影《潛行者》，

 Today, decades later, The book and the film 一本小說和一部電影在數十年後的今天，

 Still affecting some of the film makers,

 竟然這兩部作品還在影響著一些拍電影的人，

 Who are imitating and use for reference from the wisdom of older authors and movie artists.

 他們在今天依然在模仿並且借鑑前輩作家和電影藝術家的智慧，

 They learn carefully from the works.

 這些作品在今天還在被拍電影的人一絲不苟的學習著。

 I think it is a good thing. At least, the 「art movies」 are still valued by some people today. 不過我認為呢這是件好事，至少說明「藝術電影」在今天仍然受到一些人的重視。

 The other is interesting.  based on the 「Roadside Picnic」 of  Strugatsky brothers

 有意思的是，根據斯特魯伽茨基兄弟《路邊野餐》這部科幻小說改編的《潛行者》，

 Tarkovsky who directed 「Stalker」

 也就是拍攝《潛行者》這部電影的導演安德烈·塔可夫斯基，

 Quite like Chinese book 「Tao Te Ching」 (one of Chinese classics)

 他本人非常的推崇中國的《道德經》，

 Which translated into many languages, regarded as Chinese Bible.

 這部被翻譯成多種語言的《道德經》，相當於中國人的聖經，

 In 20 and 21 centuries the book deeply influenced the artists in their creation.

這部著作在20世紀和21世紀依然深深地影響著各國藝術家的創作，

 Particularly  the rare director in film history that we are talking about

 尤其是我們本集談到的這位電影史上不可多得的大導演，

 Tarkovsky, Soviet Russian,

 前蘇聯的安德烈·塔可夫斯基，

 His work was affected by Chinese Taoism, especially, by Tao Te Ching.

 在他的作品當中就深受中國道家思想的影響，尤其是深受《道德經》的影響。 

 

 If there is such Room in the world has ability to make one』s innermost desire come true，

 如果世上真有這樣的一處可以令人實現自己心中最大願望的房間,

 What is your wish?

 你的願望是什麼？

 I think it is not a problem in mainland of China.

 我想，這個問題在我們中國大陸人這裡根本就不成問題，

 Perhaps, they would buy the Room without hesitation.

 因為他們會毫不猶豫的將這個「房間」買下來，

 In short, their greatest desire and pursuit is to keep buying   houses…

 總之，他們（中國大陸人）最大的人生願望和追求，就是不停地買房……
