“费穆的一生很短,但是他活得更长久。”
第十届平遥国际电影展日前在山西晋中平遥古城举行。中国导演费穆于1948年执导的电影《小城之春》(4K修复版)在平遥电影宫“小城之春”厅举行亚洲首映。费穆之子费明煦登台,谈及父亲,语短情长。
早在2017年的“平遥元年”,第一届平遥国际电影展组委会便将费穆视为影展的人文坐标,并在费穆家人授权下设立“费穆荣誉”,以奖掖华语电影新人。
近十年之后,这部78年前的作品经中国电影资料馆4K修复,首次完整还原配乐、重制5.1声道声轨,“回到”了以它命名的影厅。这场跨越时空的“重逢”,是纪念费穆诞辰120周年的生动注脚。
1906年,费穆生于上海,原籍江苏吴县(今江苏苏州一带),少年随家迁居北平(今北京),就读法文高等学堂,自学多门外语。1932年进入联华影业公司,次年以导演处女作《城市之夜》一举成名。
1936年,费穆执导的电影《天伦》被美国片商购得,在洛杉矶等地公映,成为第一部由美国片商主动购买,并在美国公开放映的中国电影。在世界电影尚以欧美为中心的年代,中国电影完成了一次难得的“出海”。
家国飘摇之际,费穆的摄影机始终与时代同频。
1936年,他以寓言手法拍就《狼山喋血记》,被视为“国防电影”的重要作品。“孤岛”时期,他借《孔夫子》明志。太平洋战争爆发、日伪控制上海电影业后,他拒绝合作,退出影坛转向话剧舞台。
抗战胜利后,1948年为其创作高峰。这一年,他与京剧表演艺术家梅兰芳合作,拍出中国第一部彩色影片《生死恨》;又用101天,拍出一部日后被奉为中国文人电影开山之作的《小城之春》。
《小城之春》全片仅五位演员,费穆以女主角周玉纹的旁白,讲述一段“发乎情,止乎礼”的旧情重逢。影片上映后反响冷淡,更有评论指其“忘了时代”。此后数十年,它近乎被尘封。
好在,时间给出了答案。
20世纪八九十年代,《小城之春》的价值被重新发现,引发影坛震荡。九十年代,该片入选上海电影评论学会评选的“中国电影九十年十大名片”。2005年,香港电影金像奖协会与香港电影评论学会评选“中国电影诞生百年——最佳华语片一百部”,《小城之春》以最高票位列榜首。英国《视与听》杂志评选的影史电影榜单中,该片亦入选。
在彼时的中国影坛,费穆的意义何在?
20世纪三四十年代,中国电影以社会写实和救亡图存为主轴。费穆则证明了:电影还可以是“诗”。长镜头、空镜头、旁白与留白——他把中国古典诗词的含蓄、中国绘画留白的意境,传统戏曲的写意,熔铸为现代电影语言。
北京师范大学教授周星称《小城之春》为“中国电影艺术民族化的典范”;北京大学教授戴锦华等学者,将其视作中国电影“现代性”的起点。费穆早年所写《略谈“空气”》一文,迄今仍是中国导演论中极具原创性的篇章。
有论者指出,几乎同一时期,日本导演小津安二郎也在以静观镜头书写家庭伦理。无论东方西方,电影美学都能在各自的传统里完成某种暗合。这正是文明互鉴的另一种形态:不必模仿,各自深植传统,而终能在高处相逢。
1951年1月,费穆病逝于香港,年仅45岁。香港影人举行追悼会,作家司马文森致悼词,称他为“爱国的电影人”。
站在费穆诞辰120周年的节点回望,费穆留给今天的宝藏,仍值得中国电影人收藏。
其一,是美学的定力。五个人、一座园、低成本,拍出百年影史佳作,靠的是对人的理解与表达的确信,如今年口碑不俗的《给阿嬷的情书》,不失为另一种东方情义的质朴化表达。
其二,是传统的现代转化。费穆证明,现代性不必从别处搬运,它可以从自家文脉里生长出来。中国电影要以东方美学参与世界对话,《小城之春》便是最好的范本之一。
其三,是传承的自觉。从中国电影资料馆的逐帧修复,到影展以“费穆荣誉”奖掖新人,经典从来不是博物馆里的标本,而需要一代代人重新“唤醒”。
正如影展大师班以“小城春未远”为名,既是纪念,也是中国电影对自身来路的回望。亦如费明煦所言:一生很短,艺术很长。
