Hi my name is Tony and this is Every Frame a Painting.
大家好，我是托尼，这里是电影艺术评价。
Let's take a drive.
我们去兜风吧。
Today's subject is Martin Scorsese and the art of silence.
今天的主题是马丁·斯科塞斯和沉默的艺术。
Even though Scorsese is famous for his use of music, one of his best traits is actually his deliberate and powerful use of silence.
斯科塞斯以他在电影中对音乐的运用而闻名，但他最大的一个特点实际上是他的电影中刻意设计的，有力的沉默。
In interviews he's credited Frank Warner for helping him do this on Raging Bull.
他在采访中称赞弗兰克·华纳在《愤怒的公牛》这部电影中帮助他做到了这一点。
-After a while, we had so many sound effects, we always talked about pulling them out of the track and letting things go silent.
-每过一段时间，我们就能得到很多音响效果，我们总是讨论说要把这些音响效果拿出去，让画面安静下来。
-Again, like a numbing effect as if you were hit in the ear too many times.
-再一次，就像你的耳朵被击中太多次之后麻木了一样。
Here's a famous moment where Jake LaMotta sets himself up almost a religious slaughter.
这是电影中一个经典时刻，杰克·拉莫塔几乎是在进行一场宗教屠杀。
If you go through Scorsese's filmography there are lots of interesting variations on this concept.
如果你认真看一看斯科塞斯拍过的影片，就会发现他用很多种不同的有趣手法对这个概念进行过实践。
And you can actually compare him directly to others.
你可以直接把他的电影与其他人的电影做个比较。
For instance, in the original Infernal Affairs, this crucial story moment plays with music.
例如，在原版《无间道》中，这个关键时刻一直有背景音乐。
But for the remake...
但在斯科塞斯翻拍的版本中……
Regardless of which film you prefer, there's a full course of study material if you watch and compare these two films.
无论你喜欢哪个版本，观看并比较这两个版本，都能有很多收获。
Sometimes, Scorsese builds the entire film to a climax of sound...
有时候，斯科塞斯会用声音将整部电影推至高潮……
and then silence.
然后紧接着就是沉默
This example is actually kinda extreme because the loudest moment in the entire movie is immediately followed by the quietest.
这个例子实际上有点极端，因为整部电影声音最大的片段之后紧接着就是声音最小的片段。
Other times the silence is the central dramatic beat of the scene.
其它的电影中，沉默是戏剧发展最关键的节奏。
Quite famously:
例如这个名场面：
-How the fuck am I funny?
-我他妈有什么好笑的？
-What the fuck is so funny about me?
-我他妈的到底有什么好笑的？
-Tell me.
-说给我听听。
-Tell me what's funny.
-告诉我有什么好笑的。
-Get the fuck outta here, Tommy.
-你他妈给我滚，汤米。
If you go back through fifty years of his career, you'll actually find a lot of fascinating ways of using silence to heighten the subjectivity of a moment, to make a creepy scene even creepier, to show us love at first sight, and to bring our happiness to a screeching halt.
回顾他50年的职业生涯，你会发现他用各种各样迷人的沉默来展现不同的场景：让画面的主观感情更加浓烈，使令人毛骨悚然的场景更加令人毛骨悚然，展示一见钟情的时刻，并让我们的幸福瞬间消逝。
Well, maybe not a total halt.
好吧，也许没有完全消逝。
-I'm not leaving.
-我不会离开的。
-I'm not fucking leaving.
-我他妈不会离开的。
I think best of all, all these sound design choices derive from character.
我认为最重要的是，这些音效设计的选择都与角色有着紧密的联系。
The characters here are all making important choices that will have consequences:
所有角色都做出了会产生重大影响的重要选择：
choosing to take the money, choosing not to fight back, choosing to hide their emotions, choosing not to trust someone, choosing to wait out the discomfort, choosing to get back in the game, choosing to ignore that they aren't wanted.
选择拿走钱，选择不反击，选择隐藏自己的情绪，选择不相信某人，选择等待不适结束，选择重返游戏，选择忽视他们不被需要的事实。
