為了補看去年金馬最佳影片《大濛》,第一次去了台北僅存的二輪戲院。結果因為一時找不到售票亭,發生了看電影我最害怕發生的事:錯過了開頭。

錯過了第一個畫面,就像看小說,卻去略過第一行字。沒聽主歌,直接聽了副歌。就像強迫症犯了,椅背凸起,後面怎麼看下去都坐得不舒服,覺得不對勁。因為遲早有一天我還是得重看,去補完那第一個畫面。畢竟看電影常常看第一顆鏡頭就能判斷這部電影值不值得看了。有時候第一個鏡頭首尾呼應,還凝聚了導演最多的心思與心血呢。總之,沒看到開頭,怎麼能算是看了這部電影呢?我之後怎麼有資格評判這部電影呢? 表定開演時間是11:30am,我踏進影廳時是11:32am。其實我只遲到了兩分鐘,但好在二輪戲院不放廣告,我因此錯過了前兩分鐘。當我在已經播映著正片的銀幕前選好座位坐下,企圖讓自己沉靜下來的時候,結果發現——咦?怎麼電影沒聲音? 一時之間我還以為是自己心不靜才耳不靈,然後好一陣子影廳的燈亮了,檢票口的阿姨慌張地從後面的入口跑進來:「啊呀,不好意思,沒有聲音,我現在請師傅修一下。」然後過了三秒,她補了一句:「我們可能要重放。不好意思。」 果然Chatgpt和Gemini都算過我今年有運。 過了十分鐘,影廳的燈關了,銀幕上重新開始播映。殊不知重放出來的卻是我昨天才剛花兩百多塊錢補看的另一部電影《雙囍》。然後阿姨的跑步聲又從後面的入口向我們傳來了:「不好意思,不好意思。師傅放錯了!」 最後,他們給我們補放了我當初錯過的《大濛》前兩分鐘的開頭三次,因為前兩次還是沒聲音。果然Chatgpt和Gemini是會算命的。

🎥 YouTube影片連結在Bio! 據傳韓國當代電影大師李滄東與Netflix首部合作的新作《可能的愛情》將會在今年上映,那麼我們就趁上映前來聊聊他的前作《燃燒烈愛》(Burning)好了。而這也是我身邊好多朋友都喜愛的電影。 這期影片,我將用73分鐘,來逐場拆解全片。從改編思路、隱喻、結局的解析,到配樂設計與幕後細節,並且結合兩部劇本聖經《作家之路》、《故事寫作大師班》的概念來拆解這部文藝兼懸疑電影的劇本架構。 Rumor has it that acclaimed South Korean auteur Lee Chang-dong’s first collaboration with Netflix, Possible Love, is set to be released later this year. So before it arrives, this feels like the perfect moment to revisit his latest work, Burning (2018), a film that many of my friends love. In this episode, I’ll spend 73 minutes breaking the film down scene by scene. From its adaptation approach, symbolism, and interpretations of the ending, to its score design and behind-the-scenes details, I’ll also draw on ideas from ”The Writer’s Journey“ and ”The Anatomy of Story“ to analyze the screenplay structure of this arthouse mystery. 這期內容包括: 📽️ 序幕:三角戀 × 懸疑片的危險組合|Intro: A Love Triangle Turned into an Ambiguous Mystery 🎞️ 李滄東為何拍《燃燒烈愛》?|Motivation: Why Lee Chang-dong Made Burning 📽️ 從福克納到村上春樹:改編的起點|Adaptation: Faulkner × Murakami 🎞️ 一切從哪裡開始不對勁?|Analysis Part 1: When Reality Starts to Slip 📽️ 那場「海美的夕陽舞」如何誕生?|Behind the Scenes: Creating the Iconic Sunset Dance 🎞️ 聲音如何製造不安?|Sound: How Unease Is Built 📽️ 塑膠棚真的被燒了嗎?|Analysis Part 2: The Mystery of the Greenhouses 🎞️ 那些你可能忽略的隱喻|Symbolism: What You Might Have Missed 📽️ 哪個結局是真的?|Ending Part 1: Truth or Illusion? 🎞️ 如何打造一部讓人著迷的文藝片|Script: The Genre Engine Beneath the Art Film 📽️ 這是悲劇還是喜劇?|Ending Part 2: A Tragedy… or Something Else? 🎞️ 結語:看不懂,就對了|Finale: The Point Is Not to Understand #burning #燃燒烈愛 #leechangdong #韓國電影 #koreanfilm

🎥 YouTube影片連結在Bio! 提到奉俊昊,多數人腦中浮現的是《寄生上流》或《殺人回憶》,但真正讓我重看無數次、且每次都起雞皮疙瘩的,始終是那部鮮少人知,卻極其震撼的《非常母親》。 這期影片,我將透過導演視角來拆解這部被低估的傑作。從視覺語言、伏筆重重的劇本、角色形塑、電影色彩等電影美學,來討論這部電影為何會如此撼動人心。 When Bong Joon-ho comes to mind, most immediately think of Parasite or Memories of Murder. Yet, the film I revisit the most, the one that gives me chills every single time, is his often-overlooked masterpiece: Mother (2009). In this video, I break down this underrated gem through a director’s perspective. From its cinematic language and intricately layered script to the color palette and character development, we’ll explore why this film cuts so deep into the human psyche. 這期內容包括: 📽️序幕:奉俊昊最被低估的傑作|Intro: Bong’s Most Underrated Masterpiece 🎞️看懂導演的鏡頭藝術|Cinematic Language: Decoding the Visuals 📽️為什麼非金惠子不可?|Casting: Why Kim Hye-ja? 🎞️處處是伏筆,奉俊昊的「契訶夫之槍」|Script: Seeds & Payoffs 📽️為什麼是這個顏色?|Color: The Meaning of Palette 🎞️走位調度:不靠對白說故事的藝術|Blocking: Visual Storytelling Without Words 📽️捉摸不透的人性|Character: The Untraceable Soul 🎞️如何讓國民影后「入魔」?|Directing: Inviting the Performance 📽️落幕|Finale

每次執導一個新作品前,我都會給自己設定一個想要突破的目標,希望這次能做出不同的嘗試,開拓新的表達空間。 感謝這幾年遇到願意相信我、與我並肩完成不同影像作品的夥伴。期待接下來的一年能夠更加充實,有機會繼續和舊友新知共同激盪、一起做出我們都能感到驕傲的作品。 Before each new project, I set a goal to challenge myself and try something new. I’m grateful to everyone who has believed in me and collaborated with me over the past few years. Looking ahead, I’m excited to keep learning, creating, and making work we can all be proud of. #shortfilm #filmdirector #director #film #videography

在台灣的三個禮拜,本以為時間足夠長,結果還是帶著意猶未盡的心情離開了。 當我下飛機,踏進桃園機場第二航廈的那一刻,離開台灣的那五年,彷彿都被黑洞吸走了。一切的場景都是那麼熟悉,不熟悉的,反而是自己在台灣的歸屬與自在。 過馬路時,看著人手一杯手搖飲,當飲料單上寫著「高山茶」、「金萱」、「四季春」時,我終於覺得自己不再是邊緣人。不再是那個在星巴克與咖啡館遍地的世界裡,瞪大眼苦苦尋找「茶」字,最後只好點花果茶或抹茶拿鐵的人。 上組時要為大家準備咖啡,自己卻默默帶著在家事先裝好熱茶的保溫瓶。 如今終於來到一個大家口味都跟我一樣的地方,冰淇淋店特價促銷,烏龍茶口味竟是第一個賣光的;餐館櫥窗裡總有幾碟豆干;深夜貓空的茶莊裡,一群年輕人邊打牌邊泡茶。或許這些只是生活的枝微末節,這樣特別說起來,甚至有點小題大作,顯得好笑。不過我卻是如此才深刻意識到,這裡的人,跟我一樣。因為我們都是在這裡長大的。 謝謝所有願意抽空與我見面、聊天的師長、學長姐和朋友。畢業之後,見面似乎總免不了與工作有關,於是這些單純出於關心與敘舊的對談,前輩們無私的經驗分享,都讓我覺得格外珍貴。和認識二十多年的朋友重逢,感動地發現,他們依然記得我曾說過的話、那些生活裡的小習慣。彷彿就算現在把我們丟回從前的教室裡,再重新來一遍,也不會覺得有太大的區別,我們還會是最好的朋友。 由於距離上次回台已有多年,下次回來的時間仍未可知,於是這次便抱著「不留遺憾」的心情,能約的都盡量約。然而,結果還是有許多沒來得及見的老師與朋友,只能下次再補上。 我從陽光普照、幾乎不下雨的洛杉磯出發,為了這趟旅程特地買了雙防雨皮鞋和一把傘。結果三個禮拜竟罕見地沒下一滴雨。那把傘的灰都還來不及灑落,就被我塞回行李。連想聞一聞台北下雨的氣味的機會都沒留給我。結果從氣象預報一看,等我週六一搭上飛機,台北就要連下一週的雨。 這三個禮拜很熱,倒是讓我揮汗如雨。但以我對台北多雨的氣候的了解,能遇上這樣罕見的「特殊待遇」,又有什麼好抱怨的呢?回到洛杉磯了,不過這次離開時,確實有點捨不得走了。

睽違五年,這次回台灣趕上了今年由台北電影學院舉辦、為期四天的國際製片工作坊。很慶幸能有這次機會,不僅巧遇了久未謀面的學長們,還見到了坎城影展電影部總監 Christian Jeune 和影評人週藝術總監 Ava Cahen,更認識了許多台灣優秀的製片、導演與編劇。 兩位總監也分享了他們對選片的看法:電影創作者不應刻意討好評審,而最終被選中的作品,有時並非他們「最喜歡」的,而是他們覺得「應該被看見」的。另一方面,對坎城這樣兼具藝術與市場導向的影展而言,作品是否具備在法國發行的潛力,往往也是評估的重要因素。 After five years away, I was fortunate to return to Taiwan just in time for this year’s four-day International Producing Workshop organized by the Taipei Film Academy. I was also fortunate to meet Christian Jeune, Director of the Film Department at the Cannes Film Festival, and Ava Cahen, Artistic Director of Critics’ Week, as well as many talented Taiwanese producers, directors, and screenwriters. Both directors shared their perspectives on film selection: filmmakers shouldn’t try to please the jury, and the works that eventually get selected are not always their “favorites,” but rather those they believe deserve to be seen. At the same time, for a festival like Cannes, which balances artistic vision with market considerations, a film’s potential for distribution in France often plays an important role in the evaluation process. #taipeifilmacademy #cannesfilmfestival #director #producer #taipei #filmfestival

Thanks to director Abby’s trust, I had the chance to edit her graduation short film Popcorn last year. Today, I was fortunate to see it showcased at the Annual Awards alongside so many other experimental films. On top of that, I’m also grateful to have received a Best Editing Award from Ithaca Short Film festival. 謝謝導演Abby的信任,去年找我剪輯她的畢業短片Popcorn,今天因此有幸能在Annual Awards 展映中看到成果,以及這麼多實驗電影。另外,還收穫了從另一個電影節獲得的最佳剪輯獎。

Returned to @lashortsfest with @thelastsonata_film for the second year last weekend, this time with even more audience members, actors, and team members. It was great to have so many of our crew and friends there to watch the film together. Also feeling grateful to those who took the time to come up after the screening and share your thoughts and encouragement. Truly appreciate it! 第二年帶著新作品來洛杉磯國際電影節,團隊和觀眾都變多了。也謝謝映後專門來找我,與我分享觀影感想,給予我鼓勵的觀眾和朋友。 Group Photo Credit to @jiawen_han_

Thank you to @worldfesthouston for the warm hospitality and a wonderful past weekend. I’m also honored that @thelastsonata_film received the Special Jury Remi Award. It was my first time visiting Houston, and through the festival’s events, I had the chance to sail on a boat and visit the NASA Space Center. Perhaps I enjoyed it a bit too much that I ended up missing my flight for the first time ever. But every setback is a chance for something unexpected. Since my new flight had a layover in Las Vegas, I decided to skip sleep, head out of the airport in the middle of the night, and visit the filming locations of “Anora”. But that’s a story for another time. 謝謝 WorldFest-Houston 的熱情招待,讓我度過了一個美好的週末,也很榮幸《The Last Sonata》獲得了 Special Jury Remi Award 的肯定。 這是我第一次造訪休士頓,隨著電影節的行程,我有幸體驗了帆船航行,還參觀了 NASA 太空中心。可能是玩得太開心了,我竟然人生第一次錯過了班機。但也因此多了一段插曲——當我需要改搭在拉斯維加斯轉機的新航班時,我索性放棄睡覺,在轉機期間離開機場,半夜興奮地探訪了《Anora》的拍攝場景。但那又是另一個故事了!
