傻瓜大闹科学城

Joseph Stalin. He was a communist. I was not too crazy about him.

He had a bad moustache, a lot of bad habits.

This is Bela Lugosi. He was the mayor of New York for a while.

You can see what it did to him there.

This is Charles de Gaulle. He was a very famous French chef.

Had his own television show. Showed you how to make souffles and omelets.

This is Scott Fitzgerald over here. A very romantic writer. Big with English majors, college girls, nymphomaniacs. Very well.

This is Chiang Kai-shek, who I was not too carzy about either.

This is Billy Graham. Very big in the religion business. He knew God personally.

Got him his complete wardrobe. Used to go out on double dates together. It was a big thing. They were romantically linked.

This is some girls burning a brassiere. You notice it’s a very small fire.

That’s a photograph of Norman Mailer, who was a great writer. He donated his ego to the Harvard Medical School for study.

This I can tell you already, this is a centerfold from a magazine we used to call Playboy. These girls didn’t exist in actual life. They were rubberized. You had to blow ‘em up. And you could spread ointment on them, or anything that you…

I’ll just take this and study it later and give you a full report on it.

这部片子从头至尾洋溢着一股欢乐甜蜜的气氛，这两个人的眼神中都藏不住自己对于对方的爱慕，这一定是他们最开心的一段时光。特别是伍迪艾伦，他对于黛安基顿的喜爱溢于言表，那样子就好像巴不得每隔一分钟就要去吻她。在伍迪艾伦看来，死亡无人幸免，人生没有目的，灵魂永远孤独，因此，通过性将自己与所爱之人连接，一起共鸣，也许是他为数不多觉得自己真正活着的时刻。

《傻瓜大闹科学城》

1973年的《傻瓜大闹科学城》是伍迪艾伦自导自演的第4部电影，也是伍迪艾伦第一次拍的科幻喜剧片。这部电影同前3部有很大的不同，这次伍迪想拍一部类似低俗喜剧的电影，一部追求视觉效果的电影。伍迪之前的电影喜剧段子很大程度都是源于生活的，是伍迪艾伦擅长在舞台上表演的那种笑料段子。但在《性爱宝典》里，伍迪艾伦对抗15英尺高”杀人奶”的那场戏则是一个视觉效果的搞笑段子。也许是《性爱宝典》的试水成功，让伍迪决定彻底玩一部追求视觉效果的低俗喜剧电影。如果你仔细对比，就会发现《傻瓜大闹科学城》的结局相对于《傻瓜入狱记》、《香蕉》、《性爱宝典》来说显得非常仓促，男女主人公逃出科学城，彼此告白一下电影就戛然而止了。《傻瓜大闹科学城》不求有多深的内涵，看起来简单、漂亮、好笑就完事了。

以低成本去拍追求视觉效果的科幻电影确实很难，联美公司希望这部电影能够赶在圣诞节之前公映，如果最终拍摄成本超过预算或未能按时完成拍摄，伍迪要付出巨额赔偿。伍迪艾伦从4月30日开始拍摄，到8月底为止，他总共损失了35万美元的个人收入，拍摄时间逾期41天。电影中的道具、科幻场景、特技耗资巨大。电影中伍迪驾驶飞行器和身穿太空服的戏都需要吊钢索，钢索不断地进入摄影机画面，伍迪无奈的说道：“这是一部有关绳索的电影。”但我们今天看电影的最终画面效果，完全看不出钢索的存在，可以说处理地非常好了。而电影成本最终控制在低成本的300万美元以内， 并如期上映，伍迪又一次获得了喜剧电影类型探索的成功。

《傻瓜大闹科学城》是一部画面感很美的喜剧电影。在伍迪艾伦之前，把喜剧拍得美轮美奂是好莱坞主流所不能接受的。艾伦自己也承认：“大多数情况下，好看的东西都不好笑”。似乎简单到傻瓜一样的摄影才能让观众放弃审美思考，把精力集中于画面上的笑料之中。但艾伦始终怀有梦想，他始终坚持要拍画面很美的喜剧片，这一点是他和之前喜剧大师最大的区别。这样的坚持一直到了《安妮·霍尔》，伍迪变得更有抱负，他学着运用电影的手段从没完没了的笑话里得到喘息。他开始尝试把电影做得更有深度，开始探索其他的价值，转变就是那样开始的。
