摘要 Abstract:

都說張愛玲的小說最難映象化,林奕華卻六度把她的原著,轉化成劇場裏的《心經》(香港首部改編張愛玲舞台劇)、《兩女性》(《金鎖記/怨女》)、《華麗緣》、《張愛玲、請留言》、《半生緣》又是關錦鵬電影《紅玫瑰白玫瑰》的編劇。由文字到聲光與影畫,原來是林奕華在張愛玲身上找到靈感,又讓靈感回歸張愛玲的密碼所在:什麼是時間?

The eminent playwright and multimedia artist Edward Lam has adapted Eileen Chang's fiction for both stage and screen six times, more than anyone in the Chinese-speaking world. From written words to light, shadows, and sounds, Lam's adaption opens a path that leads to a uniquely profound way to decode Chang's original texts.
