(明镜陈小平博士在节目中找人评论电影"无依之地", 没有听太懂。或许我理解错了, 因为导演是华人,赞美这部电影成了海外华人政治正确的一种表现;而导演是华裔女子的事实,更让人感觉不喜欢这部电影就是一种无可饶恕的犯罪行为。晕头转向之际,回想一下没有看完的“无依之地",把破碎的记忆顺手写了下来,算是对这部电影的一个政治不正确的理解。)
After her husband has passed away before her time is due, she renovates a small van, loads on her remembrance of him, and drives it from place to place in the middle of nowhere. It may not be the fashion she desires to idle away a new kind of life ahead of her without him by her side, but rather the only way she can afford to live back into those good old days with him still around. As her mind roams deeply in the past, she becomes emotionally impotent to let anyone else into her self-blockaded heart, leading her at last to turn down the favor of a man who seems to be the perfect salvation of both. In truth, their half-baked relationship might have been doomed by suffocation from the very beginning, as still holding out in an old relationship, she is incapable of breathing any fresh air into a new one.
Feel no sorry for her though, as she always tells people. With her mind staying happily in the time ever before her husband has died, she can neither see nor feel the hardship she is now physically going through. In this sense, her life is like that of the princess in a fairytale, who "lives happily with her prince ever after", if only she in the movie has to do so backward.
Yet, with an unjustified sense of guilt, I like this movie not.
