2014年十大影片之選——時(shí)報(bào)金牌影評(píng)人推薦

9. The raw material of Justin Simien’s “Dear White People” is raw indeed. The state of race relations looks pretty bad right now, and things don’t look so great on our college campuses either. Rather than soothe us with false hope or dreams of consensus, Mr. Simien offers the homeopathic remedy of elegant, intelligent comedy. His fictional Ivy League university is a hotbed of political posturing and social rivalry, but it is also a laboratory of shifting identities where the possibility of enlightenment is never entirely foreclosed. Kind of like America.

9. 賈斯汀·西米恩(Justin Simien)的《親愛(ài)的白人們》(Dear White People)采用的素材的確新鮮直接。目前的種族關(guān)系狀況很糟，在校園里也不見(jiàn)得有多好。西米恩沒(méi)有用虛假的希望或天下大同的夢(mèng)想安撫我們，而是以一部?jī)?yōu)美、聰明的喜劇以毒攻毒。他虛構(gòu)的常青藤聯(lián)盟大學(xué)是政治姿態(tài)與社會(huì)對(duì)抗的溫床，但也是提升身份認(rèn)同的實(shí)驗(yàn)室，啟蒙的可能性從未消失，就像美國(guó)一樣。
