片中最带有救赎意味的两支曲子—巴赫的Toccata in E minor,BWV 914和勃拉姆斯的Rhapsodies No.2 in G minor, Op.79,很好地反应了主人公内心的变化。这两只曲子都有Gould的录音版本,情感上相比于原声少了多愁善感,却更加深邃。 电影最打动人的地方不仅仅是Tom通过音乐发生改变,还在于情感的铺垫。Tom与父亲的对峙,虽夹杂着愤怒无奈,可到头来还是难以割舍的亲情。片头就是Tom生活的预示,每个家庭都要经历这些,每个人都要清醒着面对死亡的恐惧并活在内疚里。Tom的救赎在于他要转移生活的重心,不能让自己沉重而空荡荡的生活失去意义,艺术的感化使他相信艺术的美是永恒的,可以为他提供一个永久的避风港。 虽然这并不是每个人都可以选择的逃避方式,但面对生活,我们也只能努力学习安然处之。” Both the movie and the soundtrack are near perfection. Both got me straight out of a major depression and into a spell of friskiness instead. The Bloc Party song is the best of all, followed second by ELECTROCUTE (you can hear it in the trailer) which is sexy, upbeat, trendy and original. There are also some classical masterpieces on this soundtrack which function somewhat to break up the general feeling of pleading and urgency. It's a wide range of genres, but flows surprisingly well, though too broad a range to play at once at a party. If you are considering buying this but have reservations, don't. Relax back and crack out your wallet with confidence. If my praise doesn't convince you, remember that it's a movie about a music addict. Of course the soundtrack has to be great! -Pink Mimosa
