One Day One Song│血淋淋地映襯一些極為醜陋的行為
從「陰陽師」到最近的「我的寵物是小妖」,對於日本的奇幻電影或小說真是愛不釋手,他們滿足我很多奇幻的想法,甚至在我的工作創意裡,常有著妙不可言的幫助。在中國的聊齋裡鬼怪其實有他很可愛的地方,他們從不主動害人,而是因為因果關係的輪迴,才迫使鬼怪找上門。我覺得這放在現代的報應學或社會倫理裡,都血淋淋地映襯一些極為醜陋的行為。
「陰陽師」的背景是在一個人鬼共處的平安時代,擺脫我們對於鬼怪的害怕,其實說的是一個共生的概念,就像現在輪到地球排斥我們一樣,一切都是因果循環,所以我很喜歡這種因果邏輯,雖然可以不用這麼警世地嚴肅看待,但終究是要我們理解一種珍惜與和平相處的心態。
最早接觸到這類奇幻作品的電影,不是林小樓的桃太郎,反而是當時很年輕的真田廣之主演的「里見八犬傳」,「Satomi Hakken Den」聽起來實在是很西式情歌,我還是比較不懂,怎會是日本奇幻電影的主題曲,但很懷念且好聽。
John O'Banion/Satomi Hakken Den
You and I didn't see the evening fly
There was magic in the air
With times enough to spare
Now it's hours I have to say goodbye
Well you know I have to go
But still it hurts me so
*I don't want this night to end
Don't say goodbye
Just hold me close, my darling
I don't want this night to end
Pretend awhile and let's forget tomorrow (*)
Feeling blue I can see it in your eyes
But I've got a job to do
Got to see things through
But I will be near even when I am out of sight
Counting seconds till the day I'm coming home to stay (*)
Oh my darling, love me tonight
And chase the morning shadow with your heavenly light
I find my strenth inside your arms
So love me tonight and keep my heart beside you
When you go, oh.......
