ボウリング・フォー・コロンバイン
|
第56回カンヌ国際映画祭で、最高賞のパルム・ドールと監督賞を史上初めて同時受賞した作品としても有名だということなんだけど、自分としては、このような凄惨な事件を映画化するのは何か釈然としなかった。出来るだけ事実に近い作りになっているんだけど、やはり映像的な演出も色濃く、パルムドールの基準って何なんだ？と疑問に思った。
自分としてはドキュメンタリーで真剣にこの事件について知りたかった。そこで、このコロンバイン高校銃乱射事件やアメリカの銃社会とまっこうに向き合ったマイケル･ムーア監督のドキュメンタリー作品『ボーリング・フォー・コロンバイン』をもう一度観てみたいと思って観ることにした。
今週は、ボーリング・フォー・コロンバイン。英語で観て行こう。
Bowling for Columbine is a 2002 American documentary film written, directed and narrated by Michael Moore. The film explores what Moore suggests are the causes for the Columbine High School massacre in 1999 and other acts of violence with guns.
Moore focuses on the background and environment in which the massacre took place and some common public opinions and assumptions about related issues. The film also looks into the nature of violence in the United States. The film brought Moore international attention as a rising filmmaker and won numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, the Independent Spirit Award for Best Documentary Feature, a special 55th Anniversary Prize at the 2002 Cannes Film Festival and the César Award for Best Foreign Film.
In Moore's discussions with various people—including South Park co-creator Matt Stone, comedian Chris Rock, the National Rifle Association's then-president Charlton Heston, and heavy metal musician Marilyn Manson—he seeks to explain why the Columbine massacre occurred and why the United States' violent crime rate (especially concerning crimes committed with firearms) is substantially higher than other nations'.
