You, The Living (观于2008年新加坡国际电影节)

4月10日

Picture this. An overweight middle age man practicing drumming in his living room. Loud. Then, someone slammed the door of the sleeping room, to try shut out the sound.
Next, another middle age man went into his kitchen. Found a stick and a chair. Climbed up the chair and used it to knock on the ceiling, to try to stop the drumming man. Drum did not stop. Instead, the ceiling light fell off due to the knocking.

From a distance, another overweight middle age man watching these two neighnours from an opposite apartment block, from his balcony. Silently. Then, a woman's sound rose.

Women:"xx, what are u doing?"

Man: "i'm here"

W: What r u doing? M: I'm here.

W: Ya, but what r u doing? M: I'm here.

W: Are you thinking? M: Ya.

W: What are you thinking? M: Now that you ask, I forget.

W: Are you thinking of me? M: I don't think so.

W: You never think of me. M: ...

W: Are you coming to bed? Tomorrow is another day. M: what?

W: I said, are you coming to bed? M: Yes.

W: What? M: I said, yes. Tomorrow is another day.

W: What? M: I said, yes. Tomorrow is another day.

Silent.

另一幕。

画面的左半边是酒馆的吧台。
画面的右半边是坐满酒客的座位。
上一幕的M和W出现在吧台的后面,显然是酒馆的酒保。
M举手敲响吧台上空的一只钟。

M: Last order of the day. Tomorrow is another day.

众酒客从画面的右半边涌向吧台,挤满的画面的左半边。
画面的右半边仅剩空桌椅,和一名少女。
好几幕戏之前,这名怀春少女在这间酒馆邂逅了一名摇滚乐手,发生了一夜情。少女天天出现在这间酒馆,奢望能再见到乐手。

看完戏之后,我才体会M和W在房间的对话。
看完戏之后,我才想起原来怀春少女在那一场戏里,仍困守于过去,而没有走向'tomorrow is another day'。
M和W是
