Two teenagers falling in love in Kansas 1928, Deanie and Bud (Wood and Beatty) are the ne plus ultra of high school sweethearts, he is a jockey born with a silver spoon, she is as lovely as a storybook princess, both parents are quite content with their pairing, then why, in Kazan’s SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, apart from the fallout of the imminent and fateful Crash of 1929, their lives will be permanently scarred, and both opt for a settling-for-less middle ground.
It works wonders when beautiful verses are weaved in with plots, especially as motifs. It struck you time and time again and made an ever so strong echo in your mind and heart.
William Wordsworth is probably my favorite poet in the English literature. I love his "I Wondered Lonely". The lines where the title of this movie comes from are also impressively beautiful, making the movie as poignant as possible.
Natalie Wood is so convincing as the tormented, love-sick young girl brought up to be good. And the debut of Warren Beatty is quite successful.
Natalie's portrait of madness is not over the top, thank goodness.
The movie ends on a good note, maybe still too good to be true. People sent to a mental institute do no usually turn out that normal due to the medical conditions at that time. Still, it's Hollywood and it got to end that way.
上学期做过关于这部电影的presetnation
很是suffer了一番
刚开始看可能不会太喜欢
因为电影拍的时间比较早，手法不是很成熟，很多地方甚至有点拙劣
比方一上来就是男女主人公的比较“激情”的戏，可能是主题的需要吧，个人觉得露骨了些～
不过片子了的主题还是蛮深刻的，通过一对年轻恋人的爱情悲剧，表达对维多利亚时代道德，尤其是性压抑的一种质疑与谴责....
全篇贯穿wordsworth的一首诗以揭示其主题，并营造一种感伤的氛围～
William Wordsworth's 1807 Ode, Intimations of Immortality from Reflections of Early Childhood
“Though nothing can bring back the hour
Of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower
We will grieve not, but rather find
Strength in what remains behind.”
1961年的电影《天涯何处觅知音 Splendor in the Grass》
看《Just kids》时提到的电影，便顺便趁着有时间找来看了，全片2个多小时，一下子就看完了，之前稍微看了眼豆瓣短评，提到社会性压抑问题，原谅我一开始就代入这个角度去看了，但显然它并不是光这个，性压抑只能说是社会时代背景之一。
两个相爱的人为什么不能在一起。
Bud和Deanie是坚定地爱着对方的，这是一个前提。但是他们要面对社会环境对性的过度压抑，父母对于他们秉持的不同态度等等问题。
Bud在医院问医生，我很爱她
