太空旅行

Anousheh Ansari has dreamt of going into outer space since she was a child. A number of years and $20 million later, with the help of the Russian space program, her dream is realized—Ansari becomes the first female space tourist. In recent years, a number of private citizens like Ansari have been willing to endure rigorous training in Star City, Kazakhstan, and part with significant funds to spend time aboard the International Space Station.


　　Director Christian Frei (The Giant Buddhas, Sundance Film Festival 2006) explores the impact of space tourism in the heavens and on Earth by adeptly weaving together multiple strands: Ansari’s joyous experience in orbit; the efforts of local villagers to claim black-market rocket debris; the observations of photographer Jonas Bendiksen; and the training of the next space tourist in line. Space Tourists examines the intersections of human enterprise and commerce in the final frontier.

其实这种题材的电影我不太喜欢，当时去看也是被初恋拉去看的。今天不知道为什么，反复回忆起来电影的情节。人性好复杂，爱情也好复杂。可是就是从复杂里开出一朵朵小花，让人心生欢喜。

双线叙事在这个题材下是很讨巧，把对grand-narrative的消解织进了big-picture focus里。对拍摄对象的选择也很有意思，那个自制环保飞行器的小伙子是对太空旅行和人类“梦想”的善意的调侃。Frei大概是很喜欢用摄影师的视角来切入背景介绍，看到我之前最喜欢的马格南摄影师出现在屏幕上的时候我还愣了一下，真没想到十年前他这么帅啊

挺好看的，想法不错，最后那个飞船里全是植物的场景让我挺惊讶。

还不错啊，若果一切可以回到起点，你愿意回去休眠吗？

设定不合理啊。不能为了歌颂爱情，强行不合理设定。五千人的超大型飞船，只有一个救生舱？男女主人公没有办法了，就出现个频死的工作人员出来救场？
