沒(méi)看過(guò)電影的胡亂猜測(cè)。
這一季諾瑪也死了，但第五季還是會(huì)在諾曼的幻覺(jué)里活著吧。。。
第四季諾瑪?shù)母绺?、迪倫、艾瑪以及若干路人也得死?br>但警長(zhǎng)被DEA抓了，而DEA那幾個(gè)一心想治他罪，他估計(jì)得在獄中蹲一段日子，對(duì)諾曼的調(diào)查也暫停了。等他出來(lái)調(diào)查后，就是解密這一切的時(shí)候了。
迪倫和艾瑪應(yīng)該是接近真相的時(shí)候被殺。
ps.也許算諾曼這演員演的好吧，真是一看他特寫(xiě)、說(shuō)話以及其他表情都反胃。曾經(jīng)《八月迷情》里的小正太變成了這樣……
pps.拍到第五季就夠了。。。

這是一部小眾的美劇，很少有論壇或是公眾賬號(hào)提及它的名字。在如今“《權(quán)游》一出，誰(shuí)與爭(zhēng)鋒”的年代，它似乎顯得有些默默無(wú)聞。但其實(shí)查一下imdb上的評(píng)分，截至目前的四季評(píng)分均在8分之上，足以說(shuō)明此劇的品質(zhì)。
其實(shí)此劇并非沒(méi)有來(lái)頭，作為希區(qū)柯克大神的經(jīng)典之作《驚魂記》的前傳，本劇對(duì)Norman Bates——這個(gè)美國(guó)電影史上最著名的精神病患者形象——的少年時(shí)代展開(kāi)了一番想象。
Norman 是一個(gè)帶有藝術(shù)氣息的纖弱少年，家庭的不幸使得Norman的性格越發(fā)的敏感而脆弱，對(duì)相依為命的母親Norma產(chǎn)生了深深的愛(ài)戀。盡管這世界上對(duì)于戀母這件事有成千上萬(wàn)種解釋，對(duì)于我而言，Norma和Norman之間則是徹頭徹尾的愛(ài)情。夜色下的湖面上一葉扁舟中，Norman對(duì)Norma吟誦的是《簡(jiǎn)愛(ài)》里面的詩(shī)句；Norma與Norman會(huì)依偎在床上一起看電影，空虛寂寞冷的時(shí)候會(huì)相擁而睡，也會(huì)把冷漠作為對(duì)對(duì)方最好的報(bào)復(fù)；面對(duì)對(duì)方與異性交往，都會(huì)醋性大發(fā)，不攪黃對(duì)方戀情不會(huì)善罷甘休。種種小性子、小心機(jī)、欲說(shuō)還休、欲罷不能，“你是我的唯一，你是我的整個(gè)世界”，“你和我是一體的，我們之間存在著某種聯(lián)系，你死了，我也會(huì)死”， “你是我睡前想起的最后一個(gè)人，你是我醒來(lái)時(shí)想起的第一個(gè)人?！边@絕對(duì)是赤裸裸的情侶模式。
在電影中并未“實(shí)質(zhì)出現(xiàn)”的母親一角到了劇版中則濃墨重彩。母親Norma是一位兩個(gè)兒子加起來(lái)都快40了但仍風(fēng)姿綽約的女性，劇中對(duì)Norma個(gè)人魅力的展現(xiàn)可不止一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)。第一季中很輕松地就撩到了副警長(zhǎng)，其哥哥也對(duì)她一往情深，那個(gè)神經(jīng)兮兮的chick，一開(kāi)始打算敲詐她，最后也不戰(zhàn)而降，敗在石榴裙下。即便堅(jiān)硬如眼線警長(zhǎng)也為其赴湯蹈火，更不用說(shuō)那個(gè)炮灰心理學(xué)教師。然而這還只是撩漢技能，事實(shí)證明，在同性面前，Norma依舊魅力滿格，在劇院的試鏡成功地打動(dòng)了女評(píng)委，后者馬上為Norma與弟弟牽線，當(dāng)然其弟也立即淪陷。借著對(duì)方家庭的政治資源，Norma謀取到了議員的職位，若不是后來(lái)兒子那邊后院著火，仕途可謂一片坦蕩。
然而上天給了她這樣的風(fēng)情，卻沒(méi)有給她這樣的命運(yùn)。Norma從小生長(zhǎng)在一個(gè)不幸的家庭，哥哥借機(jī)侵犯她，這一切構(gòu)成了Norma的童年陰影，長(zhǎng)大之后更是所托非人，時(shí)常遭受丈夫的家暴。其實(shí)Norma是一位非凡的女性，劇中很多緊要關(guān)頭，Norma都展現(xiàn)出了不遜于男性的過(guò)人的膽識(shí)與智慧，與幾位權(quán)貴過(guò)招也毫不遜色。Norma本可以成就一番事業(yè)，但終究心比天高，命比紙薄。除去命運(yùn)機(jī)遇的因素，性格上的缺陷或許也是原因。稍微“正?！秉c(diǎn)的人都懂得人在屋檐下，不得不低頭，但Norma卻幾次三番不合時(shí)宜地向強(qiáng)權(quán)發(fā)起挑戰(zhàn)。即使深知自己背負(fù)血債也能堅(jiān)稱無(wú)罪，并要與警方斗爭(zhēng)到底，一個(gè)無(wú)門(mén)無(wú)派的女性也能膽大到手握機(jī)密u盤(pán)跟大毒梟講價(jià)錢(qián)。難怪不喜歡她的觀眾會(huì)大吼一句no zuo no die。Norma曾對(duì)Norman說(shuō)過(guò)，“我對(duì)你的教育并不是希望你僅僅做一個(gè)普通人”。Norma的強(qiáng)人主義以及超強(qiáng)的控制欲在正常的環(huán)境中或許能成就非凡的事業(yè)，然而當(dāng)時(shí)運(yùn)不濟(jì)時(shí)，這些無(wú)疑種下了悲劇的種子。
母親的強(qiáng)勢(shì)卻讓Norman倍感壓力，用他自己的話說(shuō)，Norma不讓他找女朋友，不讓他參加娛樂(lè)活動(dòng)，他為母親犧牲了自己的一切。母親的強(qiáng)勢(shì)與神經(jīng)質(zhì)使Norman根本無(wú)法擁有正常的情感生活。在Norman愛(ài)上校花Bradly的時(shí)候，母親便“語(yǔ)重心長(zhǎng)”地告誡“漂亮而放蕩的女孩都是惹禍精，根本不值得愛(ài)”。在Bradly第一次來(lái)訪的時(shí)候，Norma一口回絕了Bradly對(duì)Norman的邀請(qǐng)，根本沒(méi)有給兒子說(shuō)話的機(jī)會(huì)，并一眼看出其“放蕩”的本質(zhì)。在Emma第一次來(lái)訪的時(shí)候，Norma同樣沒(méi)有給予好臉色，不僅警惕其找兒子的目的，更對(duì)別人的生理缺陷問(wèn)了一些并不算友善的問(wèn)題。之后Norma對(duì)Emma的態(tài)度倒是好了很多，并“貌似”很高興Norman和Emma交往，其實(shí)這并不代表Norma真正放手讓兒子擁抱自己的生活，很大程度上是因?yàn)轶w弱多病的Emma比起B(yǎng)radly對(duì)自己并不會(huì)構(gòu)成實(shí)質(zhì)威脅，更主要的是Norma心里清楚Norman根本不愛(ài)Emma。在得知Norman與Emma要出去郊游的時(shí)候，Norma直接了當(dāng)?shù)貙?duì)Norman交代不可以與Emma發(fā)生關(guān)系，當(dāng)然Norma的理由冠冕堂皇，是怕Emma虛弱的身體無(wú)法接受，事實(shí)上Emma早就與那位大麻小哥云雨過(guò)了?？梢哉f(shuō)Norma的粗暴干涉直接使得這次約會(huì)不歡而散。即便是身體健康的Bradly，Norman與其共度春宵后，Norma也同樣大發(fā)雷霆，在Norma的心中根本無(wú)法接受兒子與另外一個(gè)女人親密。對(duì)于這一點(diǎn)，貌似局外人的Emma卻看得最為透徹，Emma曾經(jīng)對(duì)Norman說(shuō)“你的母親無(wú)法接受你長(zhǎng)大?！苯酉聛?lái)的話更加意味深長(zhǎng)，Emma問(wèn)Norman“你愿意做Peter Pan嗎？”Norman的回答是：“如果你愿意做我的Wendy”，而Emma的回應(yīng)是“Perter與Wendy之間沒(méi)有性”。這段對(duì)話也折射出了Norman的內(nèi)心，他似乎對(duì)純潔、忠貞有著一種執(zhí)念。這種執(zhí)念或許是天生或許是母親潛移默化的影響。從這方面來(lái)說(shuō)，母與子之間存在著高度的精神契合。但是母與子同樣面臨表里不一的內(nèi)心困境。雙方都在要求對(duì)方守貞，卻又無(wú)法戰(zhàn)勝自己內(nèi)心的欲望。Norman在血?dú)夥絼偟哪挲g會(huì)對(duì)Bradyly有幻想，會(huì)在Emma換上短裙時(shí)多看幾眼，也會(huì)偷窺性感女房客換衣服。雖然兒子才是一生的情人，但是Norma既無(wú)法逾越道德倫理的界限，也無(wú)意做圣母，Norma作為一個(gè)單身女人的情欲往往要在其他男人身上得到實(shí)現(xiàn)，但是各種牽絆、各種天意或巧合使得Norma始終無(wú)法與這些男人保持長(zhǎng)久穩(wěn)定的情感關(guān)系。這無(wú)疑給Norman帶來(lái)了困惑。在和與Norma有露水姻緣的心理學(xué)教師對(duì)話時(shí)，可以看出，即便“開(kāi)放如美國(guó)”，Norma的這種一夜情行為仍被Norman定義為“淫蕩”。大兒子Dylan在未與Norma和解時(shí)也認(rèn)為她是“whore”。
像Norma自己所說(shuō)，自己喜歡去控制所有事是因?yàn)樵诖饲暗娜松袕奈纯刂七^(guò)什么。可以說(shuō)母親人生中種種時(shí)運(yùn)不濟(jì)、天災(zāi)人禍的委屈與不幸讓其將兒子當(dāng)作自己生命的唯一依靠，由此帶來(lái)的過(guò)度保護(hù)與控制轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)閮鹤友豪锏牟B(tài)基因，終至累積成疾，在精神恍惚之下殺了父親、老師、同學(xué)、同學(xué)媽媽。在發(fā)現(xiàn)Norma愛(ài)上警長(zhǎng)之后，Norman覺(jué)得這是徹底的背叛，不惜玉石俱焚，親手殺死自己最?lèi)?ài)的人。如果是金童玉女，這愛(ài)情后世定當(dāng)寫(xiě)詩(shī)歌頌，奈何他們是母子，這中間的鴻溝比羅密歐與朱麗葉還要深。
Norma走了，留下Norman一個(gè)人帶著母親的幽靈，徘徊在罪惡的深淵。其實(shí)兩人都曾想過(guò)掙脫對(duì)方，悲劇并非不可避免，兩人在不涉及對(duì)方的事情上表現(xiàn)得都很正常。但各種機(jī)緣巧合又像潮水一樣將彼此向?qū)Ψ酵迫?，不得不相互取暖。如果Bradly當(dāng)初答應(yīng)了Norman的求愛(ài)，王子和公主幸福地生活在一起了，或許Norman就不會(huì)領(lǐng)悟母親的“諄諄教導(dǎo)”是多么正確，一頭轉(zhuǎn)向母親的懷抱，也不會(huì)有后來(lái)病情發(fā)作殺害老師，然而現(xiàn)實(shí)沒(méi)有如果。就像王菲歌里唱的：“有生之年，狹路相逢，終不能幸免?！比伺c人之間的影響從來(lái)都是雙向的，Norma控制不了與自己同樣強(qiáng)勢(shì)的Dylan而Dylan就算家庭不幸也不會(huì)甘于做mammy's boy。而身心都纖細(xì)軟弱的Norman在遭受外界打擊下卻很容易將不離不棄的母親視作自己的第一女神，而對(duì)于Norma來(lái)說(shuō)Norman天真無(wú)邪的面孔可謂我見(jiàn)猶憐。可以說(shuō)雙方身上都有某種“特質(zhì)”讓對(duì)方著迷。
如果要說(shuō)此劇小眾的原因，個(gè)人認(rèn)為此劇的題材對(duì)于美國(guó)的觀眾尤其是年輕的觀眾來(lái)說(shuō)太老了，想象一下中國(guó)觀眾面對(duì)西游記各種翻拍時(shí)是怎樣萎靡不振的心情。小眾的另一部分原因有可能是它并沒(méi)有滿足一部分重口味觀眾的需求。提到貝茨旅館這個(gè)題材，觀眾首先想到的是驚悚、兇殺、戀母、精神分裂。本劇主演Freddie highmore在肥倫秀上也被肥倫問(wèn)到此劇是不是很creepy，可見(jiàn)奔著以上看點(diǎn)的觀眾并不是一個(gè)人。但事實(shí)上此劇的實(shí)際表達(dá)并未跟上廣大觀眾雄渾的想象，驚悚止于懸疑，戀母止于精神曖昧，血腥與香艷指數(shù)止步不前，滿心期待的B級(jí)片其實(shí)只是一出復(fù)古小清新。此劇的另一個(gè)小眾性在于此劇流露出的那種東方主義氣質(zhì)。Norma與Norman的感情是隱忍的，纏綿悱惻的，這種曲徑通幽的感覺(jué)讓人覺(jué)得不那么“美國(guó)”。
除了展示“驚天動(dòng)地母子情”，此劇也沒(méi)忘貢獻(xiàn)槽點(diǎn)。也許為了追求時(shí)尚，劇情被安置到了現(xiàn)代，然而問(wèn)題來(lái)了，無(wú)論是電影原作還是故事原型都發(fā)生在上個(gè)世紀(jì)那個(gè)古典的年代，放在現(xiàn)代如果細(xì)節(jié)處理不好就會(huì)違和感叢生。已經(jīng)被各種高精尖科技洗腦的觀眾大概怎么也想不明白劇中沒(méi)有任何技術(shù)含量的殺人警方怎么就是破不了案。
比起電視劇電影的容量太過(guò)單薄，所以為了擴(kuò)容，編導(dǎo)安排了黑幫仇殺以及警長(zhǎng)、Dylan與Emma這樣的主角朋友圈支線。個(gè)人覺(jué)得此劇的失敗之處在于眾多支線削弱了主線，架空了主角。原本Norman Bates是令人聞風(fēng)喪膽的變態(tài)殺人狂，但諷刺的是，觀眾會(huì)在此劇中看到，比起Norman，警長(zhǎng)與Dylan才是真正訓(xùn)練有素、技術(shù)嫻熟的戰(zhàn)士。劇中Dylan相繼解決了對(duì)Norma和Norman構(gòu)成威脅的副警長(zhǎng)和黑幫老大，而警長(zhǎng)游走于黑白兩道之間，左右逢源，關(guān)鍵時(shí)刻干凈利落地把大毒梟做掉。相比之下，Norman的殺人是精神疾病發(fā)作時(shí)的行為，無(wú)論在法律上還是道德上都會(huì)得到寬容。Norman在家被母親壓迫，在外因?yàn)椴簧崎L(zhǎng)社交被人嘲笑，男性荷爾蒙分分鐘被其兄碾壓，Norman簡(jiǎn)直是悲情寶寶。觀眾困惑的是誰(shuí)才是真正的可怖之人?；蛟S編導(dǎo)有更高的追求，在這個(gè)小鎮(zhèn)上，黑幫橫行，毒品泛濫，官僚腐敗，吃人的也許是這個(gè)社會(huì)。
