再补一段关于拳击运动的吧,说实话我对拳击一窍不通,要不是老吉根本也不会关注这项“残忍”的运动。
记者问:拳击手的成功在于把对手击败。你如何看待通过暴力来实现主角的救赎?
Jake:首先拳击的确是一项残忍的运动,但我认为它也是一项科学,关于角度、直觉等的科学。芭蕾一样也是残忍的。它们都需要极高的自律、投入、精确以及自我牺牲。拳击有许多美丽的招式和技巧,如果你了解拳击的历史,它是一项异常美丽而有启发性的运动。
====================
Boxing movies tend to adhere to certain tropes, and the one thing I struggle with in their redemption arcs is cheering on the hero as he pulverizes another human being. Thinking about that resistance you're talking about, what's your take on violence being the source of the character's salvation?
====================
Well, I would say it’s true that I think boxing can be a very brutal sport. But I also think it is really a science. They don’t just call it that just for shits and giggles. It is really a science of angles and instincts that is sort of beyond explanation. I mean, look, ballet is brutal. So I think it’s easy when you see somebody punch somebody, but my God, the discipline, the self-discipline, the intensity and precision and sacrifice that it takes to be a ballet dancer, they never really talk about that, but shit, is that hard -- and the things that people do to their bodies in that art. I do think that in a sports film, in particular, you have one or two choices because it’s what you have in sports pretty much always: win or lose. So there are inevitably tropes that you fall into, but I learned what I thought was amazing about the story, and just boxing in general, is how many beautiful styles and how many techniques there are. I think when you look at the history of boxing, it’s very inspiring. It is a beautiful, beautiful sport.
