   內 容 簡 介
Maverick young filmmaker Jonathan Glazer affirms the promise of his brilliant debut, "Sexy Beast," with his new film "Birth," teaming with Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman for a metaphysical love story that explores the space between what we know and what we feel. Kidman stars as Anna, a delicate young widow who is on the verge of a new life when a solemn little boy appears, claiming to be the reincarnation of her dead husband. As Anna, Kidman achieves a breathtaking emotional transparency to portray an intelligent woman who discovers another side of herself in the face of a bizarre, yet tantalizing possibility. The actress is beautifully paired with Canadian child actor Cameron Bright, who portrays the boy interloper with a haunting stillness and conviction. Bringing an assured sense of style and form to a decidedly unconventional narrative, Glazer creates a world that is at once strange and familiar, like a fairy tale. Like many fairy tales, "Birth" is part romance, part mystery, and part family drama - woven into a magical whole about love, mortality and the unknown.
   評 論
POSITIVE
Because it is about adults who act like adults, who are skeptical and wary, [Birth is] all the creepier … (Chicago Sun-Times)
If nothing else, Birth again confirms Kidman's extraordinary acting abilities. (The Onion's A.V. Club)
Huston gives a starmaking performance and Kidman is better than ever. Brilliant. (The Christian Science Monitor)
On the face of it, Birth plays like a romantic farce stripped of its humor. It's corny, plodding, implausible and — on occasion — seriously creepy. (New York Daily News)
… succeeds more as a source of visual and aural enthrallment than as supernatural narrative … (The Village Voice)
NEGATIVE
… the script is … cloddish in its ambiguity (Entertainment Weekly)
… plodding and pretentious … (FilmCritic.com)
has no suspense because it has no belief in itself. (The Hollywood Reporter)
   摘 抄 本
妮可基嫚因為本片獲得2005金球獎最佳女主角提名,她飾演一名年輕寡婦,她去世的丈夫投胎轉世成為10歲的小男孩與她再度相識、相戀。片中,妮可與男孩有一段在浴缸中的裸戲,還有與小男孩長達10秒鐘的熱吻鏡頭。安娜是一位感情脆弱的年輕寡婦,在眼看就要展開新生活的時候,出現了一個陰沉的小男孩,自稱是她亡夫轉世投胎之後的化身。基嫚在飾演安娜的時候,發揮了令人驚歎的感情演技,詮釋這個聰明的女人,在面對怪異又撩人的可能性時,發現了她自己的另外一面。與她搭檔演出的是加拿大籍的童星卡麥隆布萊特,他飾演的是沉靜得令人發毛又信念堅定的小男孩。葛雷瑟的敘事風格和手法,完全擺脫了傳統的窠臼,創造出一個怪異又給人熟悉感的世界,就像是童話故事一般。和許多童話故事一樣,【靈異緣未了】也是兼具浪漫和神秘兩種特質,同時也是一部家庭溫馨電影,交織成愛情、死亡與未知的神奇故事。
