亡命天涯1993

整部片子看下来有一种强烈的故事推动人物行动而不是人物推动故事发展的感觉，不知是不是导演有意为之，但单靠剧本写不出这种效果，但影片本身确实做到了，这种极致叙事性在一般的电影上实属罕见。

就剧本本身来说主线简单明了：被陷害的大夫意外逃脱关押，面临追捕单枪匹马逆袭真相。逃脱和查证并行，查案中嵌套查案，险象环生令人窒息，查理的智商和运气在现实版中堪称“你还想怎样”，但即使说主线极其单薄却为何观影又全程无尿点呢？

1.全程叙事无描写

准确来说应该是没有人物内心描写，虽然是遭受丧妻之痛、凶杀栽赃，但影片中除去在警局被审问的情感崩溃和几次梦中宣泄，查理全程都是压抑恐慌的平静。当情节进入平稳，又立刻查出线索或是重新进入危机，毫无喘息。

2.极少的人物刻画

除了查理和吉拉两个一逃一捕主要人物外，其他出场人物基本都是不需要交代名字的串场NPC，全片没有所谓的女主角，就连两个大反派的戏份都是追与逃推动出来的简短对话：查理找借钱尼克斯借钱、查理电话告知尼克斯真相、塞克斯被警察盘问、塞可斯追杀查理。

仅有的几个人性刻画都是戛然而止的叙事：查理救警员跳狱车、吉拉射杀挟持警员的逃犯、查理修改小男孩病历、查理查看被射杀警员脉搏、吉拉警车中打开查理手铐。所有人物性格都只是平铺在荧幕上让观众自己感受，导演做到最少渲染，纯讲故事引导观众思考，所以你不是在思考就是在紧张没时间无聊。

两个吐槽点：

1. 反派由于受到叙事体风格影响，出现和终结得都太突兀，基本上没有震撼力的表演，杀手不凶残反是残疾，幕后黑手选择查理好友尼克斯不够劲爆，芝加哥警局高层的行为和指示表现得过于像官商勾结谋财害命，中段所交代的迈格瑞格医药公司后半段剧情又没做任何深挖，总以为会在片尾挖出更大的内幕，但结局却在查理和尼克斯过于写实的斗殴场面下收场，总体感觉缺点什么。

2. 汤米·琼斯因为本片获得奥斯卡最佳男配出乎意料，但回头一想若非得给个小金人，也确实不能给福特，原因是查理这个角色完全是个机智过人、超强自控、运气爆表、仁心仁术的虚幻人物，再强叙事弱描写也无法掩盖主角光环的事实，所以演技再牛与人物设定一相比就黯淡了许多；相反作为一个职业警司，角色对于琼斯需求的敏锐嗅觉、冷酷无情、公事公办、果敢偏执，他都演绎出了一个真实人物应有的反应，不浮夸不做作，片尾两人在警车上的调侃更把吉拉这个角色给演活了，犯错、尴尬、致歉、恳求保密，一连串更真实的表现让吉拉这个角色更像是现实中存在的人物。所以福特虽然戏份更多，但输在了剧本和导演上，是本篇最成功的叙事化表现手法让他演不出更多的东西，实际上也根本没有多余的东西让他发挥，框早就定好了。

金波医生纵身跳下大坝，倾泻而下的白色湍急水流映衬着他飞身而下的毅然身影，这一幕在我看来是那个时期好莱坞商业片众多大胆又耐人寻味的经典镜头语言之一。那一刻，观众对人物的绝望处境达到共情高点，金波身上的悲剧色彩和英雄气质瞬间爆发，影片歌颂真爱和真相的主旨被烘托到极致。作为当时改革开放后最早被大陆引进的影片，可以想象它给当时坐在影院的大陆观众带来的久违的视觉冲击和情感冲击。

The movie started with a murder--- Dr.Kimble’s wife was killed at home,with murderer fleeing away, Dr.Kimble was convicted of murder on unfavorable evidence. To find the truth of the incident,he started his fugitive through escaping hunts from Sam (a Federal Judge)with his wisdom and faith,and finally found out the murderer whose murder motive is to make an insecure new drug approved.

After covering the movie,it sets me thinking a lot.First of all,it’s worth to learn from the spirit of Dr.Kimble,which is called “Never give up”. No matter what kinds of obstacle Dr.Kimble came across,he never surrendered to them. There is a scene that impressed me a lot, Dr.Kimble was desperately faced with not only a continuous hunt from Sam but also a waterfall tumbling down in front of him,however,he chose to jump over the waterfall regardless of his safety,which amazed all of us,leaving Sam stunned and still with a word “He never gave up”.

What’s more, Dr.Kimble always played his role so well as a doctor.Above of all,he didn’t start a collusion with pharmaceutical companies for economic benefits,but proved that the new drug did harm to liver tissue and showed opposition to bring the new drug to market for people’s health,which exactly resulted into the murder .Moreover ,he never tried to kill anyone through the fugitive even he had the chance and reason.On the contrary,he told the attending there is a puncture in the upper gastric area in the survivor .Also,he made the correct diagnosis of the little boy with fractured sternum ,changed orders and sent him to surgery in time and thus saved his life.

So there is no denying the fact that Dr.Kimble is a responsible and qualified doctor who worths our respect and learning from.As a medical student,I am prone to complain about our stressful studying and not good at dealing with the hardship and passive emotions.It’s Dr.Kimble who explicates the saying “Nothing is unachievable”.In addition, it is more significant to learn to behave than master medical knowledge before becoming a doctor. Try to bear it in mind that the doctor's motive is to bring an end to his patient's suffering rather than obtain illegitimate interests from them.

In a word,the movie is so inspiring and I got inspired. “ To cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always.” is what I exactly pursue.
