《奧德賽》是一部由克里斯多福·諾蘭擔任導演及編劇的歷史奇幻冒險電影,改編自同名荷馬史詩《奧德賽》。影片已於8月14日在內地上映。

近日,知名遊戲製作人小島秀夫分享了自己觀看諾蘭新片《奧德賽》的觀後感。
At the David Keighley Theater, I watched Christopher Nolan’s 「The Odyssey」 (shot entirely with IMAX® film cameras) presented in 70mm IMAX® film. Rather than simply watching the screen, I felt as though I was there the entire time. It was more than watching it, I witnessed it. The impact was close to what I felt when I was in elementary school student and when I first experienced the 「Cinerama」 at the 「Osaka OS Theater.」 Back then, I was used to watching everything on a CRT television, and the sense of immersion was unlike anything I had ever experienced. It brought back those memories. In hindsight, not having Japanese subtitles may have made the experience even better. I already knew the story well, having grown up watching the 1954 Kirk Douglas version and several black-and-white adaptations, but this was an entirely different experience. For me, it was an Odyssey unlike anything I had ever experienced. Despite the enormous 1.43:1 screen, Christopher Nolan and Hoyte van Hoytema’s cinematography brings us remarkably close to the actors’ faces. Through an exceptionally shallow depth of field and elegant pull-focus shots that shifts our attention to the finest details, they relentlessly follow the characters’ anguish and fate. The cast delivers performances powerful enough to withstand every bit of that extraordinary resolution. Nolan’s signature storytelling, with its meticulously interwoven timelines, is very much present here as well. Together, these elements elevate one of the world’s best-known classical epics into an intimate, deep human drama. It was magnificent. When it opens in Japan this September, it will be shown in digital IMAX®, but I have no doubt I’ll be making the 「journey back」 several more times.
小島秀夫評價如下:
我在David Keighley劇院觀看了克里斯多福・諾蘭的《奧德賽》,本片全部採用IMAX膠片攝影機拍攝,本次放映為70毫米IMAX膠片版本。我不只是單純看著銀幕,全程仿佛置身故事現場。這不只是看電影,更像是親歷見證。
這份震撼,和我小學時期在大阪OS劇院第一次體驗寬銀幕全景電影(Cinerama)時的感受十分相近。那時候我一直都是在CRT老式顯像管電視上看影像,那種沉浸感是前所未有的,這次觀影勾起了我的舊日回憶。事後回想,沒有日語字幕反倒讓整體體驗更上一層樓。

我自幼就看過柯克・道格拉斯1954年版以及數部黑白改編作品,對故事早已爛熟於心,但這部新作依舊帶來了完全不一樣的感受。對我而言,這是一場獨一無二的「奧德賽」。
即便面對 1.43:1 的巨型畫幅,克里斯多福・諾蘭與霍伊特・范・霍伊特瑪的攝影依舊可以給到演員極具衝擊力的面部近景。藉助極淺的景深與精妙的焦點推拉鏡頭,將視線引向畫面細微之處,緊緊跟隨著角色的痛苦與命運。演員們的表演張力十足,完全扛住了這套超高解析力的放映規格。諾蘭標誌性的敘事手法、精心交織纏繞的多條時間線,在本片中也悉數呈現。

諸多要素相結合,把這部舉世聞名的古典史詩,升華為一場細膩、深刻的人性大戲。影片堪稱宏偉絕倫。
本片將於今年9月在日本上映,屆時僅提供數字IMAX版本,但我毫無疑問,還會多次重返影院重溫這份體驗。
