很好的一部了解西方现代抽象表现主义画家心路历程的电影。波洛克因为简陋的工作室而无奈趴着作画，却创造了滴彩画，从早期的挣扎到巨大的成功，但毕加索比家庭还重要吗？他其实始终期望得到妈妈和家族认可，渴望拥有一个正常的家庭，她成全了他偶然而巨大的成功，但她给不了他内心最渴望的安全感，他只能在对失去成功的惶恐中自我毁灭。波洛克谈艺摘录：谁说不能为了抽象而抽象谁说抽象必须有现实和自然的根据，我就是自然；我不用形象支持画面，如果无意中出现形象，我就尽量消除它们；如果忘掉一切看画就像看着洒满床的鲜花，你不用为作品的意义绞尽脑汁；今天的画家不用追求对自身之外的主题的表达；我在地板上作画，画笔不接触画布，我拒绝偶然性；我是不是个骗子？只有一死，能让他的自我怀疑变成了艺术的传奇，如果这个传奇也是一场商业的骗局呢？佐临曾以“鸯蝴太轻”为由拒绝执导（《舞会契约》原名为《舞会契约》），轻，便是轻在对社会问题的关注及批判稍欠力度。40年代，进步文艺评论对喜剧依然抱持着相对暧昧、保守的态度，担心民众们在笑声中忘记了痛苦，疏泄了对现实的怨恨与不满。但从这个意义上来说，《舞会契约》当然是一个相当具有社会问题意识的代表性文本，它一点儿也不轻。虽然缺乏对复杂纷乱的现实情境的描摹，但彼时上海物价上涨、民不聊生等大量事实在细节的铺排中也可见一斑，且小人物们的思想和行动，都有当时社会现实的脉络可寻。石挥的戏剧式表演将五官及肢体开发到极限，李丽华也将媚俗而又矛盾的状态也演绎得细致入微，以至于在故事最后，当李丽华选择了“坐在自行车后座笑”而非“坐在宝马车上哭”时，竟是如此地合理且毋庸置疑。这是疾苦民众们在爱情上辉煌的胜利与凯旋。Prom Pact is set at the height of prom season. High school senior Mandy Coleman and her best friend and fellow outsider Ben are surrounded by over-the-top '80s-themed Promposals. However, Mandy keeps her eyes focused on a different goal: her lifelong dream of attending Harvard. When she finds out her acceptance has been deferred, she is determined to do whatever she can do to get herself off the waitlist, even if that means asking for help from the one person she abhors - popular all-star jock Graham Lansing, whose father is a powerful senator and Harvard alum. Once Mandy becomes Graham's tutor, she begins to realize there's more to him than she thought and perhaps something more to life than Harvard.
