James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
这就20年,用音乐剧的方式去呈现,有一种悲中带喜的力量。
终于看完了这版。几度流泪。我将永远相信残酷现世中存在的人性文明之光。
非常好看的精彩的舞台调度,演员们一人分尸多节,在角色中间的转换也特别棒,就是一切都很棒。
去年初在现场看的时候就又哭又笑的,正值9·11二十周年,官摄上线,重温一遍我又是暴风哭泣。 这是一部相当优秀的群像剧,演员没有什么短板,剧情张弛有度,配乐和配器也很有意思。这群陌生人的相遇,虽说是因为一场改变了世界的悲剧,但却开出了善良温情的花。🥺
个别价值观或体验和我们确有不同,但仅就这部音乐剧作品本身来说,是一部优秀的作品。

关于911的并不鲜为人知的另一面,足够温馨
片长一小时46分钟。视觉+1,剧情没漏洞但不是特别吸引人+0.5,表演真实感+1,听觉+1,创新程度+0.5,给四星。
真人真事改编的歌剧,主题很棒,但是单就故事性来讲有些平淡了,令人并不内心激动,歌曲也就还好,分三次看完了,看得有点困
(官摄填补了我2020年初买好票但因疫情取消的遗憾,没想到眨眼又是两年过)
二十周年,因疫情关停的十四个月,第一批重回百老汇的观众,和夭折的国内巡演...这一切都让人百感交集而在音乐响起那一刻落泪。即使在这样一个分裂的时代,也可以去相信人与生俱来的善意与爱的力量。Me and the sky依旧是最最最鼓舞人心的女性独唱
看完直想拍手叫好,几近完美,很可能是我今年看过最好的电影/舞台剧/音乐剧了,百老汇果然名不虚传!
特别,特别,特别感动。愿所有善行都被铭记,并得到应有的回报。音乐本身不算出彩,绝大多数对白和歌曲节奏都偏快,虽然是为了营造紧张气氛,但如果有更多抒情旋律的适当调剂,整体感觉会更张驰有度。唯一印象深刻的歌是女机长的独唱,旋律优美,而且歌词特别励志。根据真人真事改编的故事线太有感染力了,数次泪目,如果改编成话剧或电影,可能也会出好作品。
音乐歌舞都非常精彩。很有力量。有时热血沸腾。有时温暖感人。很抓人情感。
人性的光辉时刻。特别在今年奥斯卡这么烂的情况下,期待一下托尼。不过911和双伊、伊拉克战争其实是有因果的。
一群高矮胖瘦、黑、白、有色,看上去就是日常中极其普通的中老年人,在舞台上又唱又跳整出一台戏,突然想起在自家小区楼下,看跳广场舞的大爷大妈们。感觉哪里怪怪的……
音乐也很棒!
But we also commemorate what we found.
从头哭到尾,对于这种题材实在没有抵抗力。2021一个汉密尔顿一个来自远方,我会投给来自远方。一些善意是普通人就可以达成的,一点点善意累计起来那就是人性在闪光。
