去年的这个时候,STUDIO4℃工作室的“天才嘉年华”系列的第一部《Genius Party》上映,包含了福岛敦子、河森正治、木村真二、福山庸治、二村秀树、汤浅政明、渡边信一郎这7位监督的7部短片,这7位导演用自己的或天才或鬼才烹制了一桌华丽的动画盛宴,虽然在表现形式和内容上都更接近艺术动画和实验动画,但对于喜爱“内涵性动画”的动画fans来说,本作是不可不看的精品。
今年,包括前田真宏(GALA)、中泽一登(MOONDRIVE)、大平晋也(WANWA)、田中达之(陶人基德)、森本晃司(次元炸弹)等5名新锐影像作家的第二作《Genius Party Beyond》即将于10月11日上映,如果说第一系列是河森正治、汤浅政明、渡边信一郎等名监督的舞台,这第二次的舞台则交给了新人们,我们也期待他们的精彩演绎。

This new feature-length biographical film tells the extraordinary and dramatic story of the planet's most famous living scientist, told for the first time in his own words and by those closest to him. Made with unique access to his private life, this is an intimate and moving journey into Stephen Hawking's past and present. Interviewees include Stephen Hawking's sister Mary, his ex-wife Jane, carers and students, as well as colleagues such as Roger Penrose, plus Apollo astronaut Buzz Aldrin, actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Jim Carrey, and Sir Richard Branson This inspirational portrait of an iconic figure relates Hawking's incredible personal journey from boyhood underachiever to scientific genius and multi-million-selling author. And it charts how he overcame being diagnosed with motor neurone disease - and being given just two years to live - to make amazing scientific discoveries and become a symbol of triumph over adversity. Born exactly 300 years after the death of Galileo, Hawking grew up in a family some regarded as eccentric. Always asking questions, he was nicknamed 'Einstein' at school. Hawking blossomed at Oxford, although he only spent an hour a day studying. He noticed that he was becoming clumsy and fell over for no apparent reason. He was diagnosed with motor neurone disease, but nevertheless started a family and embarked on his academic career, finding himself at the heart of a searing scientific debate about the origins of the universe. And as he lost the use of his body, Hawking had to find new ways to think. He went on to write the huge bestseller A Brief History of Time, and the film reveals the high and lows of his resulting fame and fortune.
