我在哪里

《你在哪里》

"我记得很多年前有一次到香港出席电影节时,与一位著名导演交谈,当时他问了我一个问题:“你最想演什么样的角色?”忽然我发现演了几年的戏,现在几乎已经完全占据我的生活大部分空间的这份工作,我居然没有考虑过这样一个简单的问题,我想了很久,最后跟他说:“没什么特别想演的角色,好像都可以。”我记得当时他的表情,他看着我,笑了笑,说了一句:“真的没有?”不知为何,那一刻就一直留在我的心里。

这么多年来,我会不时想起那位导演的这个问题,每次都会觉得羞愧,我觉得这个问题是那么的简单,对我自己却又那么的重要,而我的回答又是那么的悲哀。就如每天都吃饭,当有人问你:“你最喜欢吃的菜是什么?” 然后居然没有一样是特别喜欢的。

没有喜欢,没有“想要”的生活是什么概念?这个问题是一种单纯,一个梦想。我过后发现自己在追逐梦想的过程当中,只追求目标和结果,却失去了某些单纯的东西,忘记了问一下自己的感受。在生活中,没有喜恶,在热爱的工作中,没有喜恶,什么都可以,没有了“想”,一切变得理所当然,是很悲哀的事。

艺术创作都必须是两者的结合

我尝试过很多不同的角色,以前演戏,就好像有些人对“好演员”的理解,像一块橡皮泥,想把它捏成什么样子都可以,导演想怎样就怎样,剧本要我怎样就怎样,完全没有自己的角度,没有自己的理解,没有判断,没有价值观,都是按照别人的看法和方法来实现,只会变成一个道具。

我觉得任何的艺术创作都必须是两者的结合,演员如果没有自己的观点和看法,作品便没有了灵魂。如果一名政客,没有主见,人云亦云,没有信仰,没有善恶好坏,会多么恐怖?没有这些的艺人,谈何创新?自己对自己做的东西都没有感觉,如何感动别人?经常会听到人家说:“我用心做。”何谓心?

其实在各行各业,在工作的时候都需要有自己的感受和观点,社会越成熟,制度越完善,在做事的时候会有一条固定的程序了,有时就如进入了自动驾驶模式一样,更重要的是要回想一下:我觉得……"

这是我认为阿武写得比较感性的一篇。

我们想要的东西很多, 即便是很简单的都好。但往往似乎会因为把其他自认为是比较重要的事情摆在优先的考量, 所以忘了追求被自己归类为不那么重要的东西。昨天去跟司先生吃饭前, 我其实考虑了好一阵子要不要去。我是想去的, 但一方面地方远, 一方面想回家睡大头觉, 觉得目前的人生没有什么比睡觉重要。最后还是去了。也很庆幸。因为本以为不比睡觉重要的饭局, 成了我在某种程度上得到心灵寄托的途径。而且说真的, 随着进入社会工作的人慢慢被这个世界吞噬, 我想能够跟好友见见面说说话是非常难得的, 应该好好珍惜这样的机会。我也不知道现在的心是到了死掉还是麻木的阶段。我从来不太喜欢独自在夜里走在挤满人的街道上, 总是觉得那种喧嚣跟心里的沉寂所形成的对比太过强烈, 让我无法负荷。但昨晚的我, 竟然一点恐惧都没有。什么感觉都没有。最多也只是一丝淡淡的倦意。无所畏惧本应是好的, 但那是如果心还在积极跳动着的话。

感谢M一大清早分享了阿武的文章。我感觉今天比较想动了。

我闻到雨水的味道, 又见乌云遮顶, 猜想应该要来场暴风雨了, 于是就走出去。想去找东西填饱肚子, 幸运的话还可以淋点雨。谁知晚餐吃完, 乌云还在酝酿情绪, 迟迟不落泪。我想来点甜的, 但要转换巴士去买才有。又是左右为难。理智说, 搭个巴士去买东西解馋, 未免太荒谬了吧。情感说, 想一想你今早读的阿武的文章。结果情感赢了。

就算心是死了, 我想今天也算是个小小的进步。反正我一向就不是那种可以大跃进的人。。。

I'll never understand.

Some people, you try to break them before you build them. Some people, you are only remembered by them when they need your help. Some people, you spend time trying to change them only to realise you were never someone who could impact their lives. Some people, they hurt you so much but you know, they are just not worth it. So, don't bother. ASPIRE 2010 was a screwed yet another learning experience for me this time. I'd really like to thank my fellow peers for going through shit with me. And thank goodness that I believe in miracles. You never know what happens until the last minute, really. I never felt so shagged, and devastated about people.

All the small things.

So blonde Neo came with a packet of sushi and my chrysanthemum tea and Mr. Bean's pancakes. We continued to gorge ourselves with cones (actually just 2) of Cornetto which I bought to reward myself after a long time of not having eaten ice cream. We studied and also watched The Family Court. I really feel sad for AhWU that everyones hates his Leshan role but I guess he's right that actors and actresses like to see audiences' reactions towards their acting. What a breakthrough for him! Had supper with Shirl and Eh Chris! at somewhere nearby. Continued to study with Angie and we (or rather I) had a bad night because she was coughing quite badly. Blonde Neo I tell you, you better start drinking bottles of water when you get home today. NO MORE CHIPS!!! I'm watching you.... So anyway, in the morning we had Mac breakfast and Angie FINALLY invited me to her house wheeeeeeeee. Happening hor? Meeting the climates (Auntie Rainbow, Sunshine boy and Rain) later to celebrate mid-aut...
