Wonder Woman 1984

《神奇女俠1984》

A year on from the day it was originally scheduled to come out, Wonder Woman 1984 is finally leaping into cinemas – and onto a streaming platform – making it 2020's first and last major superhero blockbuster. Gal Gadot returns as the Amazon warrior princess, this time battling Kristen Wiig's Cheetah in the 1980s; and Chris Pine is back as Steve Trevor, even though he was killed off at the end of the previous Wonder Woman film. But don't worry if you can't remember what happened in that one. The sequel, the film's producer told Indiewire, is "a stand-alone film in the same way that Indiana Jones or Bond films are, instead of one continuous story that requires many instalments".

距離原定上映時間過了一年之後,《神奇女俠1984》終於要在影院和流媒體平臺與觀衆見面了。這使其成爲2020年第一部也是最後一部超級英雄大片。蓋爾·加朵以亞馬遜戰士和公主的身份迴歸本片,這一次她對戰的是20世紀80年代的獵豹女(克里斯汀·韋格飾演)。克里斯·派恩再次出演史蒂夫·特雷弗,儘管他在前一部《神奇女俠》結尾時已經被殺死。不過你不用擔心自己忘記了第一部的情節。製作人告訴Indiewire網站說,續集是“一部故事獨立的電影,就像《奪寶奇兵》和007系列一樣,而不是一個需要許多部才能講完的連續的故事。”

Released in cinemas on 25 Dec in the US, Canada and Scandinavia, and from 16 Dec in the UK and around the world.

該片將於12月25日在美國、加拿大和斯堪的納維亞半島上映,12月16日起在英國和世界各地陸續上映。

The Midnight Sky

《午夜天空》

George Clooney's snowy science-fiction adventure is set in a post-apocalyptic future that might even be worse than the real world in 2020. As well as directing and producing, Clooney stars as Augustine, a scientist stationed in an Arctic observatory. He needs to contact a spaceship so that he can warn its astronauts (Felicity Jones and David Oyelowo, among others) not to return to the ruined Earth. But the only antenna with a signal strong enough to reach them is miles away across the icy wastes. The Midnight Sky is adapted from Lily Brooks-Dalton's novel by Mark L Smith, the co-screenwriter of The Revenant.

喬治·克魯尼的這部科幻冒險電影故事背景設定在世界末日之後的未來,也許比2020年的現實世界更糟。除了擔任導演和製片人,克魯尼還在這部白雪皚皚的電影中飾演駐守在北極天文臺的科學家奧古斯汀。他需要聯繫一艘宇宙飛船,警告飛船上的宇航員(菲麗希緹·瓊斯和大衛·奧伊羅飾演其中的兩名宇航員)不要返回已經毀滅的地球。但是唯一一根能夠聯繫上他們的信號足夠強的天線距離這片冰雪荒原還有好幾英里。《午夜天空》改編自莉莉·布魯克斯-道爾頓的小說,編劇馬克·L·史密斯曾參與編寫《荒野獵人》的劇本。

Soul

《心靈奇旅》

In the first Pixar cartoon to have an African-American lead character, Jamie Foxx provides the voice of a music teacher who dreams of making it as a jazz pianist in New York.

Nomadland

《無依之地》

When Fern (Frances McDormand) is widowed, she can't afford to live in a house of her own, so she packs her few belongings into a camper van, and drives off into the Nevada desert. She soon discovers that she isn't alone: there is a large community of senior citizens who have been forced to live on the road, supporting themselves with short-term jobs along the way. What makes Nomadland unique is that while Fern is played by an Oscar-winning actress, nearly all of the people she meets are real nomads who recount their own experiences. Written and directed by Chloe Zhao (The Rider), the film is a "hybrid of documentary and fiction".

當費恩(弗蘭西斯·麥克多蒙德飾演)失去丈夫後,她住不起自己的房子,於是就收拾了僅有的一點個人物品放在露營車上,開車去了內華達沙漠。她很快便發現,自己不是一個人:這裏居住着一大羣老年人,他們被迫住在公路上,靠着沿途做點短期工作來餬口。這部電影的獨特之處在於,儘管費恩的扮演者是獲得奧斯卡獎的女演員,但費恩在路上所遇到的幾乎所有人都是真正的流浪者,他們只是在講述自己的親身經歷。這部電影由趙婷(曾執導過《騎士》)擔任編劇和導演,是一部“紀實和虛構相混合的影片”。

Released on 4 Dec in the US and Canada, and 30 Dec in France

該片將於12月4日在美國和加拿大上映,12月30日在法國上映。

Wolfwalkers

《狼行者》

The year's finest animated film doesn't come from Dreamworks or Pixar, but from Cartoon Saloon, an Irish studio specialising in Celtic folklore and stylised hand-drawn 2D art. Their latest rousing fairy tale is set in the mid 17th-Century, when English soldiers are trying to tame the wild woods near Kilkenny. One hunter's daughter learns that there aren't just wolves in the forest, but "wolfwalkers" who can change into wolves at night. Richard Whittaker in the Austin Chronicle praises "a heartwarming story of family and friendship, a family-friendly examination of the horror of repression, a bracing adventure about two girls finding themselves, and a stealth art history lesson ... Wolfwalkers stands proud as a new classic."

今年最傑出的動畫電影不是出自夢工廠,也不是出自皮克斯,而是出自卡通沙龍動畫工作室。這家愛爾蘭電影工作室專注於凱爾特民間傳說和風格化的手繪平面藝術。他們的這部新片講述了發生在17世紀中葉的一個激動人心的神話故事,故事裏英格蘭士兵正試圖攻佔基爾肯尼附近的一片原始森林。一位獵人的女兒知道森林裏不僅有狼,還有夜裏會變成狼的“狼行者”。《奧斯汀編年史》的理查德·惠特克稱讚該片是“一個關於家庭和友情的暖心故事,從家庭角度對恐怖壓迫的審視,關於兩個小女孩尋找自我的令人振奮的冒險,以及一堂潤物細無聲的藝術史課……《狼行者》是當之無愧的新經典。”

On Apple TV+ from 11 Dec

該片將於12月11日在Apple TV+平臺上線。
