巴西三部曲之三 Brazilian trilogy, 3ème partie sur 3

2 Perdidos numa Noite Suja
(Two Lost in a Dirty Night)


Un flim qui pourrait bien faire réflechir des enjeux de santé mentale, d'identité sexuelle et de orientation sexuelle. Mais 2 Perdidos numa Noite Suja. La violence, le manque de sécurité d'être sans abri, sans revenue et sans papiers mélagent un cocktail de disastre pour nos protagonistes. À survive dans la Big Apple ne serait pas facile.

這部可以是同志議題的電影,也可以是跨性別議題的作品。沒有身份的移民生活基本上不會好到哪里,如果再加上身份認同的問題那就更加困難了。兩個主角在城市森林生存的小故事、他們之間迷糊和時好時壞的關係,對看厭了荷里活電影的朋友,是不錯的選擇。

Sometimes films don't have to carry labels to excel in categories that they would not have been pigeon boxed into. 2 Perdidos numa Noite Suja is one good example. Two Brazilians who crossed paths in New York City, at some points using, relying on, threatening, loving, hating, abandonning one another, weaved the story of a middle age man whose expatriate and immigrant "dream" came and escaped, and a sometimes schizophenic if not bipolar youngster's life on the streets of New York selling "its" body. "Its" attributing to the fact that the character flips gender roles as if we are changing clothes on a daily basis. It does provide a lot of food for thought in this multi-layered chronicle of life in the NYC. The two extremes love-hate, on-and-off and symbiotic versus betrayal interactions of the two protagonists will sure make you appreciate the skillfulness of the storyteller.
