Mirror Flower, Water MoonMirror Flower Water Moon: 鏡花水月懷舊事

About this book書籍介紹

Mirror Flower, Water Moon is a lyrical, romantic collection of film notes. Sonia Hu shares her responses to the films she has seen and the stories behind those responses. If cinema is history in motion, these notes form a small part of that moving history—a window through which we can glimpse the winding course of its larger river.《鏡花水月懷舊事》是一本唯美浪漫的電影筆記，從作者紐約桃花的視角講述了她觀影的各種感想，以及這些感想背後的故事。如果說電影就是一部流動的歷史，那麼這本電影筆記就是這些流動歷史的一個微小的部分，猶如一個窗口，從裡面可以窺見整部歷史長河的蜿蜒。

Hu’s father was editor-in-chief of Foreign Films, an internal publication of the China Film Association, while her mother was editor-in-chief of Foreign Theatre, a magazine of the China Theatre Association. Their extensive introductions to and criticism of international cinema and theatre profoundly influenced her. A television producer who worked at CBS and MTV in the United States, Hu approaches film through its human stories and historical and cultural context, bringing a richly informed perspective to her criticism.紐約桃花的父親曾是中國電影家協會內部專刊《外國電影》的主編，母親曾是中國戲劇家協會的雜誌《外國戲劇》主編，兩人撰寫過大量外國電影與戲劇的介紹和評論，對紐約桃花的影響至深。紐約桃花是電視製作人，曾在美國CBS和MTV電視臺工作。因此，她的影評更側重於電影的人文角度和背景資料，內容更引人入勝。
