空气之魂,云之精灵
非常棒的超现实科幻片,与很像,导演Alex Proyas后来还拍了那部著名的,这是他的处女作.以下地址有详细介绍和剧照:  Like a dream, some things can only be experienced to understand  This film has some of the most beautiful imagery and haunting music ever. (Not to overstate it or anything) A three hander set in a post apocalyptic Oz outback (but one which is wildly more fantastical than Mad Max), Spirits of the Air tells the story of Smith, a stranger on the run who happens upon Felix and Betty, far into the desert.  All around them are amazing images of cars buried into the ground like totems, huge flags blowing madly in the desert wind and their house itself is of the old oz pioneer style but decorated everywhere with crucifixes. Felix is an inventor obsessed with flight and making a glider, an obsession which has already left him in a wheel chair. Betty is one of the truly great film characters, just an absolute tripper - I can't describe her but the performance is a delight.  This is not a fast film, it is not action packed but is intense - the imagery and art direction are beautiful, the writing is distinct and very Australian but still universal, the soundtrack is haunting (a lot of windsound montages with a simple tune used to great effect) and the performances are both real and surreal.  Until you see this film (and for those who have enjoyed the increasingly brilliant work of Alex Proyas, you really should) you won't know what you are missing.
危险人物:千真万确
主角波特是黑道人物,成为黑吃黑的受害者,当然他有自己的原则,属于邪中带正的人物。他的同伙欲置他于死地,并且独吞了他的钱,拐走了他的女人。为了重拾尊严,讨回他应得的七万块美金,波特大开杀戒。  幕后:  影片开拍于1997年9月17日。之所以选择在芝加哥拍摄,是因为主创人员不想影片背景中的建筑具有闪烁着金属光泽的时尚风格,只要阴冷的灰色就好。并且,影片中的时代、人物和小巷都有一种荒芜衰退的外表。用导演布赖恩·海尔格兰德的话说,就是具有粗糙的质感,具有黑白影片的特殊风格。影片中的年代很模糊,地点也不确定。你不会发现40年代后的建筑,汽车的款式也没有89年之后的。为了让影像传达故事,摄影指导埃里克森·科尔(Ericson Core)刻意将色彩饱和度降低至最低值。同时,影片还潜隐着黑色幽默,梅尔·吉布森所扮演的角色是个直性子,不苟言笑,而一切错综纠葛、无事生非恰恰围绕着他而发生。  为了尽量除去城市中的颜色,剧组使用了大量棕色颜料,在每早开拍前,都有一名油漆匠随时准备涂掉街边的红色标记。  花絮:  ·在导演布赖恩·海尔格兰德退出本片拍摄后,影片的30%被要求重拍。重拍整整延误了一年,因为梅尔·吉布森当时正在拍摄《致命武器4》。  ·影片在澳洲上映时,宣传口号由Get ready to root for the bad guy改为Get ready to cheer for the bad guy,因为在澳洲俚语中,to root意味着。  ·片中的所有电话都是旋转拨号的。  ·接替布赖恩·海尔格兰德重拍影片的人一直鲜为人知,梅尔·吉布森在后来接受采访时曾透露,接替海尔格兰德的是美工设计师约翰·迈尔(John Myhre)。  ·波特用的手枪是Smith Wesson Model 27 357 Magnum。
