Post-It Love



"Post-It Love" is a cute story of office romance story directed by the UK duo Si & Ad. Similar to my earlier post "Signs", this is also a love story conveyed entirely without any dialog. Rather, the couple communicate to each others in a rather unconventional manner: making post-it murals for each others. Sometimes I feel like a romantic story can be conveyed much more effectively without any talking, since at that point audiences really focus on the emotions and feelings brought out from the actors. (Remember why Wall-E's first half was so memorable?)

"Post-It Love" (愛的便利貼) 是由英國的 Si & Ad 所導的一個相當可愛的辦公室愛情故事. 跟我之前介紹的 "Signs" 相當類似, 雖然男女主角的互動是重點, 這個故事也是完全沒有任何對話. 與其, 他們使用了一些比較特別的溝通方式: 用便利貼來為對方"貼"出一幅幅的壁畫. 有時我真的覺得, 某些愛情故事去掉對話反而比較能有效傳達情感. 因為觀眾會變得比較注重角色們的互動, 表情, 和他們內心的感覺. (當然, 演員的演技也要夠好才行) 還記得為什麼"瓦力"的前半段那麼的難忘嗎?
