Gone Baby Gone (2007)　of course there will be a lot of Summer Altice and This is Our Youth－女神殿

March 23, 2002 - Independent Spirit Awards

幹夏日鳳凰實在太正了！優秀如凱西也要被我打入畜牲地獄才行。

I always believed it was the things you don't choose that makes you who you are.

Your city, your neighborhood, your family. People here take pride in these things, like it was something they'd accomplished. The bodies around their souls, the cities wrapped around those. I lived on this block my whole life; most of these people have. When your job is to find people who are missing, it helps to know where they started. I find the people who started in the cracks and then fell through. This city can be hard. When I was young, I asked my priest how you could get to heaven and still protect yourself from all the evil in the world. He told me what God said to His children. "You are sheep among wolves.

"Be wise as serpents, yet innocent as doves."

是這樣的，如果我把電影劇情平鋪直述給你聽，回應不外乎「又是一老套的人性糾結錯綜複雜」之類的冷水，但馬臉班，現在得改叫才子班，之處女導足以讓艾氏兄弟唱秋十年。

Is that Mirabelle?
Annabelle.

電影上半場相當於機歪凱西大會，或是把凱西放到麥特戴蒙放在瞞天過海十二的位置，我相信那些機歪話語靈感大多來自艾氏兄弟真實童年回憶。隨著凱西日漸成熟，下半場有別於神祕河流青春期拖太長，老實說結局都猜得到，但你就是會感到沉重，有別於神祕河流想要塑造的青春期拖太長沉重。

關於凱西，自從檢閱十一羅漢發現他乃才子班之弟就開始密切觀察，去年事業年正式以本片和刺殺傑西奠定其沙啞／弱智／陰娘三位一體的獨特魅力。回過頭看葛斯范桑愛的機密，凱西當年真不是普通的拙。

凱西綠色外套相當帥氣！

敝人絕對有能耐將壞人繩之以法，拜託！韋式企業的奇門遁甲都是老子設計的哩！

蜜雪兒的外套也相當好看，儼然是波士頓首席外套好看夥計 (associate)。

他馬的這傢伙到底是從哪裡冒出來的？
滾回你的哈利波特魔幻世界吧！

凱西：……　蜜雪兒：那我要當妙麗。

蜜雪兒曾被我指控 (indict) 為親親砰砰唯一缺點，因為以黑色電影最重要元素 femme fatale 標準來看，蜜雪兒過於路人一點也不符合 (not any of that)，拜託 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang 以及中文片名吻兩下打兩槍絕對是這幾年最優秀的片名。

但你可以發現，其實蜜雪兒在本片很耐看，看久會變成黛安蓮恩加羅美雪妮黛，和凱西的化學也是不用有化學就很有化學的優秀化學。恭喜當初不可能的任務三兩大路人女主角：老婆蜜雪兒 & 學生凱莉各自找到自己的觀眾和筆者的肯定。

本片最美畫面，台北市大概很難找到這麼清澈的水面，水面下還有雲這種東西！

Amy Adams 的表演証明今年女配角競爭有多激烈，就算凱特輸給她我也不會該半句。

至於 Ed Harris 請來領走走寶貝走最帥獎，以及最佳妙語如珠獎。

He lied to me.
Now I can't think of one reason big enough for him to lie
that's small enough not to matter.

這位仁兄就是鼎鼎大名的火線歐馬啦！
