5. 'Silence'
《沉默》

Martin Scorsese's passion project (in development since 1990) follows two Portuguese Jesuits (Andrew Garfield and Adam Driver) to 17th-century Japan, where they search for their mentor priest (Liam Neeson) and risk torture and death for preaching Christianity. Matters of faith and its meaning in a material world have long obsessed Scorsese. Silence is alternately brutal and cerebral. Some may balk at grappling with moral ambiguity for two and a half hours. Who needs them. Scorsese has crafted a film of potent provocation and fervent heart.
馬丁?斯科塞斯這部充滿激情的作品（1990年開始籌備）講述的故事發(fā)生在17世紀(jì)的日本。兩個葡萄牙耶穌會會士（安德魯?加菲爾德、亞當(dāng)?德賴弗飾）在尋找恩師（連姆?尼森）的途中經(jīng)歷折磨和死亡的威脅，但仍不放棄追求基督教義的信仰。信念及其在世俗中的意義長期困擾著斯科塞斯。《沉默》是一部殘忍與現(xiàn)實交織的電影，也許有人在觀影的兩個半小時里會不認(rèn)同片中的道德模糊感。誰管得了他們呢？斯科塞斯造就了一部充滿挑釁意味，讓人血脈賁張的電影。

徐習(xí)之：關(guān)于信仰的故事，不在沉默中爆發(fā)，就在沉默中滅亡。

Todd：這是場苦行，要你全身心投入不克分身，卻麻痹情感和知覺……苦行是境遇驅(qū)使的求生本能，苦行的價值在于塵埃落定后的推想與重構(gòu)。
