Abstract: | J.G.巴拉德的作品常被歸類為科幻小說,但是不同於以往科幻小說場景通常設為外太空,巴拉德的作品著重在心靈的探索,包括幻想、衝動、精神病理學。《摩天樓》是J.G.巴拉德小說四部曲的最後一本。四十年之後《摩天樓》由導演Ben Wheatley改編為電影《摩天樓》。電影改編版在許多方面都非常忠實於原創小說。在小說中,《摩天樓》中建築原始設計概念是將空間分為上層階級住在上層樓,而下層階級都住在低層樓層,但在現實中,這樣的概念被推翻。而在電影之中,導演賦予這些在小說中沈默的女性角色一個重建自己身份的機會。第二章將從小說裡三個不同的敘述者中回顧反烏托邦世界,並探討小說與電影中的靜音電視與環爾德對紀錄片,與電影裡強調《摩天樓》崛起的新一代。第三章進一步討論導演如何在電影中呈現J.G.巴拉德強調的心理建築圖像,並重新分析三個主 要人物的心理。第四章將重點關注在小說中的沈默女性,以及電影如何扭轉女性角色,將其從這父權制建築中解放。 Often categorized as science fiction, J.G. Ballard’s novels often work on mind exploration, including fantasy, impulsiveness, psychopathology. High-Rise is the final part of a quartet of novels that Ballard wrote. Having been nursing the project for almost forty years, in 2015, High-Rise is adapted to the film High-Rise by the director Ben Wheatley. The film adaptation is quite faithful to its original novel in many aspects. But the film also brings out one hidden element in the novel, the subversive power of female characters. In the novel, the original design of High-Rise construction project is to hierarchize space – the upper class on top, the lower class at the bottom, but the reality overturns the plan. Moreover, in the film, the director empowers these silent female characters to rebuild their identities. Chapter two is going to review the dystopian world in the novel with the shifting narrators from the three different voices, the next generation emphasized in the film and the important theme, the muted television and Wilder’s documentary film. Chapter three further discusses how the director presents the images of the mental building on the screen and reanalyzes the psychologies of the three main characters. Chapter four will focus on the silent women in the novel and how the film reverse and emancipate these women from this patriarchal building. |
