专辑简介: 《变相怪杰》是美国的一部魔幻喜剧电影。由查克·拉塞尔执导,金·凯瑞、卡梅隆·迪亚茨、彼得·格林纳和艾米·雅丝贝克等联袂出演。影片于1994年7月29日在美国上映。 电影讲述生活呆板单调的银行办事员史丹利偶然在河边捡到一个古代面具,戴上之后产生奇幻的蜕变,从懦弱的凡人一跃成为超级英雄,但因此遭到黑道追杀,意图夺取面具用以为非作歹。史丹利则发挥其超感应能力夺回面具,并赢得美人芳心。 金·凯瑞拍完此片片酬从35万美元飙升到700万美元。导演查克·拉塞尔是这部电影起初是一部根据Dark Horse出版的漫画书改编的黑色恐怖片,直到金·凯瑞把它变成了独具个人风格的“金·凯瑞式”喜剧片。因为主角斯坦利是个漫画迷,所以面具的表情来自于诸多漫画形象。卡梅隆·迪亚茨在片中唱的歌是由苏珊·博伊德配音的。金·凯瑞在片中经常去以试图吸引卡梅隆·迪亚茨的那个俱乐部叫Coco Bongo。金·凯瑞在电影《The Majestic》中扮演的皮特丢了工作后去的酒吧也有同样的名字。 金·凯瑞被歹徒追赶时,把手伸进口袋,拿出的一个湿的避孕套并说“Sorry wrong pocket”(不好意思伸错口袋了)。这句台词是金·凯瑞的即兴发挥。片中主角带着大牙的场面本来是没有台词的,但是金·凯瑞经过练习后成功地带着它们说话,使得场面更搞笑了。 影片《变相怪杰》投资仅2300万美元,于1994年7月29日在北美的2360家影院开画,上映的首周末票房为2300万,顺利登上周冠军宝座,最终该片的北美票房为1.19亿美元,海外为2.31亿美元,全球共斩获3.51亿美元,位列1994年十大卖座片第四名,仅次于《狮子王》、《阿甘正传》和《真实的谎言》。 by Adam Greenberg The original score for the movie The Mask was completely composed by Randy Edelman and performed in entirety by the Irish Film Orchestra . It should be noted that this is not the original soundtrack; if you're looking for a Jim Carrey rendition of "Cuban Pete," you're at the wrong album. This is fully instrumental movie background music, which explains the incessant brevity of the tracks. In truth, half of the tracks on the album hold a slow, dreamy quality to them, something like a Cirque du Soleil musical number, with the full carnival effect. This works unusually well for this album, as The Mask is something of a living carnival to begin with, and the music should fit as such. At its best, Edelman was able to make the album sound uncannily similar to John Williams ' Jurassic Park works, especially in tracks such as "Opening - The Origin of the Mask." At its worst, it can be merely dream-induced carnival music, complete with unnecessary drama.
