“一张照片,也许可以改变世界”----它根据故事中的两位主角Greg Marinovich和Joao Silva的回忆录改编,讲述一位图片编辑Silva(玛琳·阿克曼饰)与她的四位战地摄影师,其中包括主角Greg Marinovich(瑞恩·菲利普饰演),他们组成枪声俱乐部,深入南非用自己的相机和镜头记录和揭示了这里的秘密和罪恶。 影片的背景设置在90年代初南非种族隔离后的第一次自由选举时期,他们来到这片充满了血腥和暴力的所在,在枪声和威胁中拍摄了极端优秀的作品,这些作品后来也获得了当年的普利策奖,与此同时,他们也付出了沉重的代价。。。 ◎幕后制作影片充满诚挚与刺激,在揭露道德与真相的同时,也有裸露和性感镜头造势。而摄影爱好者大概不能错过电影中各式相机的出场,有老式胶片机也有现代数码相机。。Disarmingly realistic in its depiction of the realities of frontier life, Heartland is a strong antidote to the cliches of traditional Westerns. This semi-documentary slice of life is based on the diaries of Elmore Randall Stewart about her days on the Wyoming frontier in the early 20th century. It's a strongly feminist statement about a woman raising her small daughter alone and scrapping for a living by working for a shy Scottish rancher. Director Richard Pearce brings an endearing touch to a film that is helped greatly by the dazzling cinematography of Fred Murphy. Conchata Ferrell and Rip Torn star in this small film that substitutes veracity for a high-powered plot. Pearce worked as a cinematographer on Woodstock and other documentaries before making his directorial debut.
Winner of the 1980 Berlin Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival。
