深锁春光一院愁

很美的爱情片，虽然剧情老套，但是场景设计却给人以十分讲究的美感，例如在废弃的小屋和Ron朋友家，场景里会时常出现大面积的透明玻璃-使空间变得十分开阔。而在Cary及Cary所参加的派对上更常见的则是镜子-反射室内的空间。这两者间的对比同时映衬了不同阶层人们的处事态度。前者：人与人之间透明，清澈，友好，真诚。后者：自顾自。如此看似invisible&unnoticeable的场景设计实则在无形中已让观众深入到剧情与阶级矛盾中去。

影片立意明确，表现人生观、价值观与爱情的矛盾冲突。首先是阶层矛盾。上流人士与下等平民共存于世，看似和谐发展，却各自形成生活圈，他们之间的关系存在着不可调和的差别。这个观念从奴隶社会就已形成，随着社会发展，它也随之发展得更加坚固。当然，个别人士对它是藐视的，他们无法改变，只好通过文学、戏剧、电影等艺术形式表达自己的观点。影片中众人反对卡蕾与罗恩的婚姻主要原因便来源于此。其二是伦理矛盾。年长女士爱上年轻男士在世人看来是有悖伦理的。这条定律无论中国还是其他国家，或多或少都存在着。当然，它并没有上一种矛盾更加尖锐、强烈，人们能给予更多的包容，但仍会不自觉的产生异样眼光。

创作者是如何安排两个不同阶层的人物产生如此强烈的爱情？这也是我感兴趣的地方。

首先，导演设置了两人的关系。既要两人不同阶层，又要让两人能面对面的谈话，主仆关系就再好不过了。罗恩是卡蕾已故园丁的儿子，子承父业天经地义（这也为以后一个流言的产生——说卡蕾在丈夫还没过世时就与罗恩关系暧昧——打下基础）。然后，创作者通过四个设置作为两人相爱的缘由。按出场顺序，第一是树叶。此时，两人刚刚认识，卡蕾将罗恩剪下的树叶插在花瓶里，聪明的观众应该已然觉察出后面的故事。第二是罗恩破旧的老屋。第三是一个破损的陶瓷。卡蕾对它们表现出满心的喜欢，事后罗恩将老屋打扫得干干净净，并修复了陶瓷，借此表达了对卡蕾的爱意。第四是罗恩的人生观。卡蕾对罗恩“活出自我”的人生观表现出认同和欣赏，借此作为卡蕾能爱上罗恩的理由之一。

如今看来，这几个设置是如此平凡、简单，然而却理所当然。如果交由你来创作，又该如何设置呢？是否要构思一场英雄救美或寂寞难耐被色诱的场景？

关于道格拉斯.瑟克，法斯宾德曾这样评价“他是一个对人类有爱，不象我们那样轻蔑人类的电影人”“我在瑟克的作品中，首次具体看到：哪怕是一个惟钱是问的体制下工作，个人独一无二的东西，仍然有见天日的生机”...
也许这就是导演心中天堂里所允许的一切。即使是体制、工作所限，保存个人的天性、个性，最后总有拨开见云日的那天。影片结局体现的便是上帝的意愿。大多乞求愿望倚靠着梦境达到允诺，可究竟允许了些什么不得而知。
天堂里允许的一切，这是个令人迷惑不清的片名。暂且可以这样理解：我们每日的生活即是天堂里允许的。
活着即是天堂里允许的。

Anauteur mauditof his time, German émigré Douglas Sirk's renown has been considerably reappraised with much admiration for his trademark disposition of light and color, the swelling watchability sublimated from its saccharine source material, aka. the often derogated melodrama, and affecting emotional flux elicited from his sharply tricked-out players (Rock Hudson is among the staple).

Sirk's second Wyman-Hudson vehicle, ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS, is a lean, Technicolor-fueled, frippery-free, love-overcoming-moral-prejudice romantic drama, a middle-class suburban widow Cary Scott (Wyman) gallantly accepts the marriage proposal from her much younger boyfriend Ron Kirby (Hudson), who is hailed from a different class bracket and has no ambition in pursuing affluence. What transpires in the wake of her decision trenchantly discloses the selfishness, snobbery, myopia and hypocrisy inherently pertaining to the objectionable mindset of small-town bourgeoisie. On paper, the story sounds platitudinous, but Sirk’s wow factor is, as always, his divine composition of the palette and setting, everything is undergone through a minutely preparatory process, from the impeccable cosmetic furnishing and elegant garbs of itsdramatis personae, to its almost storybook environs, however, to counterpoise the richness on one’s eyes, Sirk is quite self-aware of not overreaching himself,ergo, the plot pans out in a reductive but expressively accurate manner,sansdevious routes, to sustain a vigorous lifeline that magically keeps a spectator rapt.

It goes without saying this approach often lives and dies with the performers, and in this case, it totally hits the bull-eye. Jane Wyman is a screen paragon who can yoke unperturbed grace with understated determination in a pinch, and step by step, Cary’s liberation from those fetters chained to a lonesome widow is limned through her pitch-perfect, layered felicity that it hits every right spot to accompany a viewer’s mirrored, visceral journey. Rock Hudson, a quintessential specimen of American masculinity and good looks, aptly elicits Ron’s larger-than-life symbol of perfection but at the same time, conveys his vulnerability and misery with pinpricks of impatience and disappointment, which injects a more personal note to the character.

As regards the peripheral roles,Gloria Talbott andWilliam Reynolds, who play Cary’s college-age children, both stoutly take it to themselves as the cardinal negative force impeding their mother’s new romance, with the former’s talk-the-talk, walk-the-walk turnabout and the latter’s sheer self-seeking callousness, god bless our offspring. But one’s heart easily goes with a solicitous Agnes Moorehead, who is always a pleasant sight as Cary’s matter-of-fact confidant and an effulgent Virginia Grey, radiating warmth even if she is not necessarily needed to do so.

Lastly, the purportedly compromised ending, stank with the inimical Catholic precept that one must suffer (both physically and mentally) plenty before finally gaining the reward, comes off as a fly in the ointment to wring a quasi-tearjerking effect, nonetheless, as vouched by Liszt’s timelessly enchanting Consolation No. 3 in the beginning, ALL THAT HEAVEN ALLOWS oozes a vintage vitality in its most luscious taste, isn’t that a delight?

referential films: Sirk’s MAGNIFICENT OBSESSION (1954, 7.1/10), WRITTEN ON THE WIND (1956, 8.0/10); Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s ALI: FEAR EATS THE SOUL (1974, 8.7/10); Todd Haynes FAR FROM HEAVEN (2002, 9.2/10).

剧情上除了两个问题以外其余都很棒 1.kirby到底喜欢Carrie什么？ 2.kirby到底成长没有？在Carrie说结束之前kirby一举一动就好像个神人一样，波澜不惊，自信满满。Carrie离开后他懊恼的动作或许是整部电影中他感情波动表现的最明显的镜头。当然你可以看到影片对他自然地生活方式是推崇的，但对他对待别人的方式却有所批判。比如他总是让别人对自己的生活做主，却不知有时候女人不希望仅凭自己拿主意。 但是他对此没做出任何行动，或许导演只是觉得这是kirby顺从内心带来的一点副作用罢了，并不需要特别提出来批判一下。 到了最后，kirby受伤，Carrie到他家照顾他时，遇见k的那位女性朋友，carrie却又像第一次到她家做客的时候那样说起kirby，完全是重复甚至强调那时的观点。而这与kirby，剧情发生的东西是冲突的。所以，我很是不解

A movie composed of a hackneyed story, a nice theme of love and values of life, and a series of beautifully rendered scenes.

Several memorable lines: "security comes from inside himself,” “home is where you are,” “you are running away from something important because you are afraid,” and etc.

Carefully designed costumes and props. The film starts with Sarah, wearing a bright blue dress, stepping out of her richly blue car. The color choice is, first, visually attractive and, second, speaks of her extroversive personality. Later, the rather casual clothes of Ron’s friends at the dinner contrast with the exquisite suits and dresses in the cocktail party of Cary’s friend. The costumes highlight the stark difference between the circles of Ron and Cary, indicating their different social positions and life styles. Cary's different outfits throughout the film are also carefully chosen. She starts from a widow's grey suit. After meeting Ron, she puts on a vibrantly red dress for the country club. She shift back to the widow's black velvet on Christmas Eve after breaking up with Ron. These all suggest Cary's mental activities.

Some hints are given to foreshadow later developments in the story. At first is the branch that Ron gave to Cary, which she treated like a bouquet of flowers and placed in a beautiful vase. The second is the broken Wedgwood porcelain. Other elements are used to indicate the ideology of the film. An example would be the book, Walden, that Cary picked up at the Andersons'.

The curated lighting is my favorite element of this film. It uses high-key lighting in the garden scene and the party scene to create more realistic settings. Low-key lighting, on the other hand, is used in more emotionally charged scenarios. For the conversations between Cary and Ron and Cary and her son, high contrast of light and darkness hides and reveals the facial expressions of the characters. The most memorable scene for me is when Ron and Cary stand in front of the large glass window. The cold and blue lights from the snow outdoors juxtaposed with the warm and orange lights of fireplace illuminating behind the couple generate such a peaceful yet secretly melancholy atmosphere. This also foretells the following warm proposal and cold conflict.

《深锁春光一院愁》: 完成度非常高，台词设置精巧，画面色彩鲜明。 这么忧伤动人的剧情，带来的艰难与抉择堪比初三时看《罗马假日》。看了一点后意识到启发了托德海因斯的《远离天堂》。但远离天堂似乎才是现实，没有happy ending. 中产阶级妇女都爱园丁。洛克哈德森的脸简直了，完美得跟雕塑一样。这张脸自高三起一直贴在我屋子，某期《看电影》杂志里的小海报。 和《蔚蓝深海》一样，医生都扮演知心大哥的角色:因为逃避，所以头痛。你甚至比过去更加孤独。你高尚的牺牲有什么意义呢。如果他真爱我，他会来找我的。不！你要是爱他，你该去找他！You are ready for a love affair,but not for love. 要是坐在电影院大银幕前，定会在光影之中泪流满面吧。 It won't be easy时甚至想起John and Yoko. 经典台词: 有你在的地方就是家。你回家来了。 多少人都生活在平静的绝望中。 She doesnt want to make her own mind,no girl does.She wants you to make up for her. ironic:1.女儿满嘴弗洛伊德，研究社会学心理学，分析各种案例。看起来很先锋很自由，说寡妇不该被埋葬，这又不是古埃及，要活出自我，不在乎别人的想法。但到自己身上就行不通了。是个彻底的理论派。 罗恩是彻底的行动派。这是罗恩的bible吗。不，罗恩的bible就是活出自我。他从来不会让不重要的东西变得重要。活出真正的自我。安全感源于自我，无法被带走。VIP-very independent person. 2.电视机。孤独的老女人最后的避难所。只要轻轻旋转按钮，戏剧，喜剧，生活，就在你的指缝中展开。 关于什么是自私，什么是活出自我，究竟如何判定。自私不过是忠于内心的另一种表达方式。 儿女、罗恩哪个不自私呢。上一秒他们还说你自私，下一秒你无私了，你的无私就恰恰被他们的自私所利用。 鹿 很多事情答案很简单，但你要用很久才可以想明白。那不是一夜就能figure out的。
