电影《花样年华》

In the Mood for Love ，2000

       王家卫是世界影坛最臭名昭著的完美主义者，不过他耗在剪辑室里的每一个无法决断的瞬间，在《花样年华》中都值了。这是一部罕见的用留白来积蓄忧郁力量的电影。

       我们从未见到那两个出轨的配偶，正是他们的婚外情把两个孤独的邻居卷入一场意乱情迷的浪漫旋涡。我们也从未看到王家卫拍了又剪掉的床戏，这让每一次腰肢的摇曳和撩人的镜头都充满情色张力。

      我们也从没听到过高潮部分那些无从知晓的喃喃细语，就算听到了，也是多余，因为从来没有哪部电影能将失落和欲望的普遍主题讲述得如此流畅。

Wong Kar-wai is one of world cinema’s most notorious perfectionists, but he earned every moment of editing-room indecision with In the Mood for Love, the rare movie that draws much of its melancholy power from what it leaves off-screen.

We never see the faces of the spouses whose affair pulls two lonely neighbours into their delirious romantic spiral. We never see the sex scene that Wong shot but omitted, all the better to heighten the erotic charge of every swaying hip and every voluptuous swirl of the camera.

And we never hear the lost, whispered words at the climax, which would be superfluous in any case: never before has a film spoken so fluently in the universal language of loss and desire.
