先猜猜為何我放這張照片,答案在文章最後會揭曉!
最近吵的沸沸揚揚的話題是 American Film Institution 選出的『百年百大電影歌曲』。這一百大的歌曲,是從一份四百名的入圍名單中再精選出來的。當中許多是來自四、五、六○年代的歌舞電影。當時因為百老匯的漸漸衰弱,許多的歌舞明星紛紛到好萊塢發展,理所當然許多的電影也直接改編已經經膾炙人口的歌舞劇碼,讓當中朗朗上口的歌曲,帶領著觀眾進入電影院。
其實這份名單還是很多爭議。幾個選擇的標準,如片長必須長於一小時,是美國電影,是歌曲,都沒有問題,但是到了 Culture Impact 文化衝擊,以及 Legacy 傳奇性 兩項,每個人的認知不同。若要說對於整體社會的衝擊,第一部有聲電影『The Jazz Singer』『爵士歌手』裡頭,由 Al Jolson 艾爾強森 演唱的〈My Mammy〉、〈Toot、Toot、Tootsie〉就沒有進榜(但是有入圍前四百大)。說到 Legacy 傳奇性,Marilyn Monroe 瑪麗蓮夢露 的〈River of No Return〉〈大江東去〉居然連前四百名也沒有入圍!!要說傳唱度,一九六○年由 Frank Sinatra 法蘭克辛納屈 主演的電影『Can Can』當中的名曲〈I Love Paris〉,恐怕早就被唱爛了吧?卻連前四百大都沒有入圍。而電影『畢業生』當中的〈Mrs. Robinson〉固然很有名,但當中的另外兩首歌,〈Scarborough Fair〉以及〈Sound of Silence〉相信更是廣為傳唱的名曲!!(有誰不會唱這兩首歌的呢?)還有,那美到不行的〈Somewhere In Time〉〈似曾相識〉呢?
一面看著名單,巴黎 忽然發現自己已經不自覺的哼起每一首我會唱的歌曲來了!在歌曲名稱之前加上一顆星的,就是 巴黎 會唱的歌曲。套句我的好朋友,電影與歌舞劇史家 Edwin Chen 的口頭禪:『歌舞吧!』,既然許多歌曲都來自歌舞片,那就讓我們一同『歌舞吧』!!

你會唱幾首呢?另外,關於 AFI 的『史上五十大傳奇明星』,我將寫在『巴黎戲館』。還有,猜出來為什麼我會放這張圖片了嗎?這是 Olivia Newton-John 奧莉維亞紐頓強 在電影『Grease』『油脂小子』當中的模樣,因為 巴黎 覺得她在電影中,於階梯前唱的〈Hopelessly Devoted to You〉〈無可救藥愛上你〉真是好聽到不行,居然沒有入圍,是天大的遺珠之憾!!(好啦,這有點 personal,但不好聽嗎?)
