爱妻不在家

 以《返家十万里》扬名的导演卡罗尔·巴拉德一鸣惊人之作。以戏剧化的抒情风格描述一名男孩在船难中跟黑神驹同时漂流到荒岛上，人与马建立了两位一体的非凡感情。后来他们获救重回人类社会，巧遇老牌马术教练，乃被训练成出色的赛马和小小年纪的骑师，在一次比赛中获得冠军。全片的摄影极为优美动人，尤其当时的童星凯利·里诺在沙滩上跟黑神驹玩耍的场面，在视听效果上呈现出大自然之美的极至。米基·鲁尼饰演的驯马师在片中也占有重要地位，一老一少和马之间的三角互动关系爆发出感人的火花，堪称同类影片中的一流代表作。

　　As its title suggests THE FABULOUS WORLD OF JULES VERNE is an awe -inspiring, meticulous cinematic rendering of the aesthetic and conceptual inventions of proto-science fiction genius Jules Verne, based on one of the famed author's lesser known short stories. However, the real star of the film is the intricate art direction, successfully rendering the visual style of nineteenth century woodcuts and engravings into motion pictures, creating a stylized and surreal graphic world within which Verne’s fanciful tale unfolds. A brilliant scientist, Dr. Roche, perches high above a stormy sea, inventing a powerful explosive, when he and his assistant are kidnapped by an evil businessman, Artigas. Taken by submarine to Artigas' volcano headquarters, Roche is tricked into developing his experiment for evil intentions. The scientist’s assistant, Simon, struggles all the while to free himself and warn Roche. A magical world of baroque submarines and sailing ships, killer octopus, undersea bicycles dazzles audiences as human actors, puppetry, animation and fanciful scenic design interact to create a cinematic experience that is unique by any standards. Mixing slapstick comedy, action adventure pacing and Mélies style film magic, this little known Czechoslovakian gem transcends the juvenile literature at its source to create cinematic art of the highest order....
