各位朋友們平安:
今天的週末問安的主題是: Russia House.
John le Carré 中文譯音勒卡雷, 英國有名的冷戰間諜小說的作家, 上個月去世, 八十九歲; 報紙上紛紛討論他的小說拍成的電影, 例如 The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, Russia House, Smiley’s People, The Tailor of Panama, 等等, 他的小說總共拍了十三部電影, 這兩天我又看了一次 Russia House (中譯莫斯科情人).
Russia House 以前看的時候沒什麼特別印象, 這次再看感受特別深, 差別在於以前看的時候還沒去過俄羅斯和葡萄牙, 2014 年我和安參加 Viking 的俄羅斯川遊, 光莫斯科就呆了五天, 聖彼得堡 (列寧格勒)也呆了三天, 而 2019 年我去了一趟葡萄牙里斯本, 在里斯本市內的陡坡上搭電車繞, Russia House 的故事都發生在這兩個城市, 片中景色彷彿又帶著我重新遊覽, 而安已離去四年多, Russia house 惹起我今夕何夕的淡淡的愁緖.
片裏的高音薩克斯風的音樂, 動聽, 但卻遞送一種無奈感, 愁緒翻滾, 任它折騰.
因為有不明人士塗鴨, 所有回應將先審讀後刊登, 謝謝諒解!

Russia, What a pleasant surprise, I am now in the mid of reading “The Tsarina’s Lost Treasure”, which led me to watch the film “Russian Ark” on last Saturday morning before access to your weekly shalom.
Did not remember there was a movie on Le Carre’s famous novel. Even though failed on line search for the whole film, still be able to explore some video & music clips, also watched the behind the scenes of “the Russia House”. While watching, it came to my mind that I did read the book decades ago, searched bookshelves, not yet locate, I knew what exactly will be on my next reading list. Thank you for sharing with us.
