[思考問題]請問大家有否看過一齣關於外星人的電影<>?
下面引用由taoming在 2005/06/16 02:58am 發表的內容:
因<>在香港的宣傳不多,因此沒有緣觀看此電影,所以想從閣下的文章中了解該片的精神病與外星人的分析...
不過在網上搜尋對該片的評價:劇本中關於Prot是外星人或是瘋癲的證據並不平衡,而較... 其實此片有兩種標準。如果將角度放在〔一個精神病人無法做出主角做的事〕,在某程度上是低估精神病人的智慧,但如果反之將角度放在〔精神病人的確做出了這種奇事〕就會反而高估了精神病人的能力。此為其中第一種角度。第二種角度就是,戲中主角跟一群精神病人有良好溝通而且看起來只有主角才明白他們,而在戲中各精神病人行為大致正常,例如沒有突然拿起刀子要殺人或者整天在亂叫的可怖景象。所以從第二角度看,其實此片有可能是將精神病人的瘋狂程度降低讓人嘗試理解或者關心精神病人多一點。
另外,我也決定把小弟的essay放上來,但在文中多次使用電影的劇情作証明,所以如有不明白地方可以直接問我。若有機會可看看這電影,值得人反思之餘,就算當做一部有感情的普通電影看也絕對無壞處。
K-PAX
In K-PAX, Prot appears suddenly in New York and becomes the main character who leads the storyline in the movie. Prot declares himself a life form from the planet K-PAX, which is not discovered yet by humans. Furthermore, it is not worth a discussion if Prot really comes from K-PAX, because human is unable to neither prove it nor deny it. It is reasonable to believe the existence of life forms superior to humans, because obviously nobody can expect what Prot will do in the movie. The lifestyle in K-PAX, the amazing things Prot does and the relationship between Prot and the patients are three specific proofs that Prot really comes from K-PAX.
The first thing Prot reveals about K-PAX is the sunlight, and that is the reason of why he wears sunglasses. Needless to say, Prot uses the evidence of two suns to explain how K-PAX is different from the Earth because K-PAX has two suns, K-MON and K-RIL. The scientist Dr.Chakraborty states that Prot can see ultra-violet light, in the astounding range of 300 to 400 Angstroms. Furthermore, the pain of reproductive process in K-PAX is really painful, therefore they have to be careful of it. Prot says that they do not have family in K-PAX and they are actually raised by everyone. The most important thing Prot explains is that K-PAX has no law and lawyers. Prot tells Dr. Powell that human never pay attention to what Buddha and Christ teach people, and Prot says every being in the universe knows right from wrong. The special lifestyle on K-PAX and the differences are convincing and it is unfair to say that Prot is only a mental ill patient because most of what he says is correct.
Prot does so many amazing and weird things and the audiences are really surprised of every single thing he does. First of all, Prot appears suddenly from the light and the homeless person sees it. Prot is rational and under control most of the time and he says clearly that he is brought to the Psychiatric Institute of Manhattan. Secondly, Prot explains the theory of Einstein to Dr. Powell and correct the mistakes Dr. Powell makes. Needless to say, the most impressive scene in the movie is how Prot draws the position of K-PAX and it is really surprising to the experts of astronomy. When Dr. Powell invites Prot to his home, Prot communicates with the dog and tells the truth about what the girls do onto the dog. At the end, it is also reasonable that Prot leaves his sunglasses when he goes back to the K-PAX because he says that he does not need them on K-PAX. As a result, it is ridiculous to say that a mental ill person can act in that normal way and do such amazing and weird things. Prot is like doing miracles for the standard of human, but it is common sense for a person living on K-PAX.
The story is happening around the building of psychiatric institute and many patients are living with their own mental problems but most of them believe in Prot and want to follow Prot of getting back to K-PAX. Prot tries to communicate with all the patients he sees and he teaches them how to be cured. The first thing Prot does to help them is he gives three tasks to Howie, and actually Prot is leading Howie to walk on the right path. Prot tells everyone when he is leaving and they have a farewell party on that night before. All the patients are happy but worried because Prot promises that he will bring one person only with him when he is going back to K-PAX. Eventually, Bess disappears when Prot goes back to K-PAX and apparently he chooses Bess, and the patients see the reason on the sheet Bess writes. Bess writes that she has no home and this should be the reason why Prot brings her back.
The special lifestyle in K-PAX, the amazing things Prot expresses and the events happening between the patients and Prot are important proofs to know that Prot is a K-PAXian. Dr. Powell goes to find the history about Prot and actually the information he finds is about the body of human that Prot uses, but not the history of Prot. Unfortunately, human cannot understand how Prot comes to the Earth and leaves but audiences should learn what Prot does and how he lives on K-PAX. People should remember the last task Prot gives Howie, which is staying here and be prepared of everything.
