難得 Terrence Malick 與 Bale 再次組合的 "Lawless" 有了一點內容介紹了。嗯... 看到標題我還有點吃驚，因為 Malick 伯伯算是第一次有這樣的風格。

因為太重要了，我該來翻譯了。今天一連翻譯三篇，我的旅遊計畫啊～～～

看來 Terrence Malick 神祕的電影 "Lawless" 終於有些層次被揭露了出來。連接拍兩部電影的導演 Malick 今年會開拍 "Lawless" 到目前為止都在水面下神祕進行，但去年秋天於 Austin City Limits 音樂嘉年華時，一些前置作業已經開始。另一個與電影有關的消息，可以讓我們看出這部電影的一些端倪。

製片公司 FlimNation 將電影簡述如下：「兩段交集在一起的愛情三角習題。一個有關於性沉迷的故事，背叛與德州 Austin 的音樂有著對比」嗯，這就是我們現在所知的了，這也是這部遊一群明星：Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara 以及 Haley Bennett 所集結而成的作品。某些 Malick 影迷可能也在去年的 Austin City Limits 與電影擦身而過，我們推測，導演應該會再次回到那個地方。

在去年年底前，Mara 說這部電影在九月前不會開拍（Malick 的另一部電影"Knight of Cups"  會在今年夏天開始拍攝），我們知道這部電影會以 Austin 的音樂節為背景，到十月音樂節再次展開使，他們出現在那個地方也不會奇怪了。

沒差了，這項消息透露了 Malick 再次導出作品的新方向。而 "Knight of Cups" 與 "Lawless" 是兩個不同的故事，但會讓角色穿越兩邊（Bale, Blanchett 還有 Portman 都會在兩部電影出現，這至少會是一組三角戀情） 應該吧...


It looks like a layer from Terrence Malick's otherwise mysterious "Lawless" has been peeled back. The film, one of two the director will shoot this year, has been working under a veil of secrecy thus far, but it looks like that pre-production work last fall at the Austin City Limits music festival was a good practice round for the upcoming film. And a new logline for the film reveals another interesting thematic turn for the helmer.

Production company FilmNation has a logline for the film that describes the plot as following "two intersecting love triangles. It is a story of sexual obsession and betrayal set against the music scene in Austin, Texas." And well, that's all we have for now, but it's the biggest detail yet about the film that is set to star a great cast including Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, Ryan Gosling, Rooney Mara and Haley Bennett. And Malick fans might want to snap up some passes for this year's Austin City Limits fest, as we're guessing the director will be back.

Before the end of last year, Mara revealed that the film wouldn't be shooting until September ("Knight Of Cups" is slated to shoot first this summer). Given that we now know the film will be playing out against the backdrop of the music scene in Austin, we wouldn't be surprised if the production schedules add some additional time to hit the festival again when it runs from October 12-14.

Either way, it's an interesting revelation about the film which finds Malick moving yet again in another bold new direction. The official word on "Knight Of Cups" is that it will be a "separate narrative" from "Lawless" but given the casting crossover between both films (Bale, Blancett and Portman feature in both films, which seems like at least one love triangle), we wonder...
