这电影估计不会有多少人留意,因为单单看年代,1948年,就会直接忽略过去了。
别嫌这个电影译名老套,要是喜欢爵士乐的朋友,这可是非常经典的电影,不信的话,你可以看看演员列表就知道了。
一位编纂音乐百科全书的教授,决定走访民间收集现实生活音乐材料,遇上了想摆脱帮派男友的迷人爵士歌手,从此巧遇了一段美妙开怀的音乐与爱情体验。
A Song is Born,1948重摄改编于Ball of Fire,承接了类似的故事架构,却更纯粹多彩。
全片集结了许多一时之选的爵士歌曲,例如女主角Honey Swanson以独特嗓音演唱的DADDY-O,以及STEALIN' APPLES,FLYING HOME,I'M GETTIN' SENTIMENTAL OVER YOU还有MUSKRAT RAMBLE,随兴悦耳的旋律,都珍贵地随着电影保存下来。 此片的多彩更表现在强大的卡司阵容。
Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Louis Armstrong, Lionel Hampton and Charlie Barnet.活跃于Big Band(大乐队爵士)时代的著名人物,在这部电影里齐聚一堂。1948年,是继Big Band而起的摇摆爵士乐逐渐没落的年代,这样的齐聚一堂相当具有历史意义!
而爵士樂的指标性人物Louis Armstrong,也在此片中飾演自己。
他沙哑富感情的嗓音也原汁原味的保留了下来。 从任何方面来看,此片都是绝对不能错过的爵士经典!
