剧情介绍
Spencer Tracy and Frederic March go head-to-head as opposing attorneys in this blistering courtroom drama about the famed "Scopes Monkey Trial" where a Tennessee teacher must defend himself for teaching Darwinism.
This is another re-enactment of the play about the trial in 1925 of a school teacher who dared to teach Darwinian theory in his classroom. He did this as a consequence of one of his student's request to know... The student was a lad named 'Stebbins', and the trial (dubbed the 'Monkey Trial') pitted the great attorney of the day, Clarence Darrow, against the often running presidential candidate, and famous orator, William Jennings Bryan.
7/10 陪审员8号和3号又干上了。George C Scott有始有终最后一部电影吼到走。🍋的确是老了。相比之下,前一年的12怒汉翻拍各方面都强很多。
很糙的一版改编。画面摄影上看似“逐帧翻拍”,但其实去掉了60版很多颇具感染力的镜头细节;双男主庭审飙戏也跟60版差一大截子,可能莱蒙和斯科特年纪都太大了真彪不动了;牧师设定尤其不喜,疯过头了,间接削弱了故事对普通民众的关怀;此外MGM的服饰布景极像BBC迷你剧,导致我频繁出戏……
冲着两位影帝给五星吧,比老版差不少
听力不好,浪费了资源(ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻
和97版《12怒汉》一样,几乎是逐帧重拍老版,所以自动降一星。剧本仍旧是典范,但必须承认,尽管莱蒙+斯科特飚戏剑拔弩张,可依然没能超越马区与屈赛。况且原版能在当时抨击麦卡锡主义,新版则显得有些陈旧了。
黑白老电影果然比彩色的更为经典,不论镜头停在何处,都是一副极好的静默画。
未知永远是可怕的,宗教的根基在于它看似驱逐了人们的未知恐惧,但是却用一种愚民的方式。
