The Women〈女人至上〉改編自1936年由Clare Booth Luce所編導的賣座舞台劇。劇中完全沒有一名男性演員,就連狗都是母的,唯一雄性大概就是最後出現的男嬰一枚吧。看任何書籍、電影、舞台劇都要對時,拖了半年才閃念打開來看,時間軌還沒三分之一我就知道會有很多看見。
女人是造物者最精心的藝術品。女人,是妻子、是母親、是姊妹、是女兒、是朋友、是愛人、是敵人。女人,敏感、勇敢、多情、專注、忠心、自私、容忍、固執、堅強、支持、脆弱、多慮、誠實、柔軟、堅毅...太多太多的面相,彷彿萬花筒永遠看不完整。「辛苦了,女人。」而智慧,是女人隨著年紀必然長出的美麗果實,當然有人只結一顆,有人滿樹開花;劇中年過半百的女人都說出令人驚豔的話語,深入淺出;整齣戲有太多太多令人莞爾卻也發人省思的智語,差一點quote到天荒地老。女人,總是最為難女人的那一個;說穿了,其實就是為難自己。
Classic quotes:
" You said that betrayal is inevitable
in any relationship. I thought you were just talking about marriage. This is so
much worse."
" It feels like someone kicked you in
the stomach. It feels like your heart stopped beating. It feels like that dream.
You know, the one you were falling and you want so desperately to wake up...
before you hit the ground, but its out all of your control. You cant trust
anything anymore. No one is who they say they are. Your life is changed
forever. And the only thing to come out the whole ugly experience... is no one
will ever be able to break your heart like that again."
從各式各樣的挫折當中,我們總是期望著自己可以從beta版升級到1.0或2.0。但當我們不停地忙著填補那些缺陷的時候,卻也往往因此而看不見那些缺陷。盡力的做好每一件事,同時fail掉一些事。然後就像狗兒追逐著自己的尾巴打轉,永無止境的自我成立又推翻。可是女人呀,卻也因此而可愛,因為這麼認真。
所以送上最後最後的一句quote:
" Being a woman is a gift."
