明日女优

      Jane有一只叫Starlet的吉娃娃狗，是从事色情行业的人，和Melissa、她的男朋友住在一起，房租一个人承担，还经常借钱给Melissa，一起吸毒。
      一次偶然，Jane 发现了买的热水瓶里有1万块钱，经过一阵挥霍后，她打算把钱换回去，但遭到Sadie的拒绝。经过一系列努力，她终于和Sadie成为了朋友。
      Jane是一个善良的人，她从救助站收养了小狗，帮室友交房租，替Melissa向老板求情。她对于意外之财，一开始的心态和绝大多数人的一样---占为己有。但是挥霍之后，她受到良心的谴责，只好帮助孤寡老人Sadie。就在她觉得就要弥补错误后，她的狗急跳墙的朋友向老人告密了。老人经过挣扎后，决定含蓄地告诉Jane她已经知道钱丢的事。想必他们会有一个愉快的假期。
      Sadie在丈夫去世后，独自生活了40年。他丈夫在世是是职业赌徒，而且是一个good one,赢了很多钱，但是Sadie从来没去过巴黎。她的花园有很多花，但是有一种荒草丛生的感觉，就像年老的Sadie一样，活一天过一天，她已经没有太多精力去整理花园了。
     吉娃娃走失后，Sadie满大街步履蹒跚地哭着找它，是因为她害怕再次失去亲人。她披头散发抱着小狗坐在门口，冲着 Jane重复喊道：“I just can not handle this anymore！”
       Jane 终于熬不住，买了去巴黎的机票，想圆了老人的梦想，一切顺利进行，可是她的坑爹的室友因为没把钱花在她身上，告密了。
      结尾意味深长：1.独居40年；2.18岁的女儿先与丈夫去世；3、我把你当作我的女儿，你犯的错我可以原谅；4、谢谢你.
       最后说一下那个二逼室友Melissa,不服从老板安排，私自接活，吸毒过量，男朋友把她当作赚钱的工具，在发现Jane的钱后，暗示她要把钱花在她身上。在发现Jane买机票要陪老人去巴黎后，她的好吃懒做的德性暴露无遗。她毫无顾忌以前Jane的帮助，向老人揭穿了她。
人生在世，谁没遇到过几个人渣室友！！！

很喜欢这部片子和Dree 转载访谈，帮助理解片子台前幕后，没看错av场面果然是替身然后剪得真不错。好有趣的制作过程耶，原来去参加色情业展会是真的，使用隐藏拍摄，很多人以为女主就是pornstar然后各种~~ 哈哈，不过no judgement也是棒棒哒。dree也聊到很多关于自己家族的事情，喜欢她的低调单纯，而且做出了一部好片子，这是我看她的第一部，很偶然找到的。翻译就不做了，我觉得最直接的理解是看原文，给几个关键词，有兴趣的自己理解。

The young actress talks to THR about her burgeoning acting career as well as how she copes with bearing the last name of one of the world's most famed writers.

正文
As much as she'd probably like to avoid it, the first line in Dree Hemingway's biography probably would note that she is the great-granddaughter of famed writer Ernest Hemingway and the daughter of actress Mariel Hemingway. But with a few more movies like Starlet, her first leading feature role, that just might change.

Hemingway, 25, plays Jane, a flighty, listless woman in her early 20s living in Los Angeles with her friend and the friend's boyfriend. She flits about through her days, smoking weed and shopping and taking her Chihuahua wherever she goes. She might seem like a low-rent Paris Hilton, but she has more depth than it appears at first glance.

Film Review: Starlet

When she buys a thermos for a dollar at a yard sale from an old woman, she finds $10,000 rolled up inside. After trying to return the thermos to the cantankerous octogenarian, who refuses, she decides to at least befriend the lonely widow, Sadie. This is easier said than done, though the two eventually form an odd relationship. It is one built partially on lies; Jane doesn't tell Sadie about the money, or the fact that she works as a porn actress -- something kept from the audience through much of the movie, as well.

THR recently spoke to Hemingway about the film and her famous bloodlines.

The Hollywood Reporter: What happened in your interview with director Sean Baker?

Dree Hemingway: I’m so passionate about this character, but a lot of it was how I perceived her and who I thought she was and to clarify if I’d do the porn scene. And really wanting to assure me that they’d use a body double and just wanting to make sure I’d be comfortable with the whole situation. And everything he was saying about the character was something I had thought of, and there were things that I wanted to bring, and it was really nice. And what really hooked it was the communication between us.

THR: So you weren’t uncomfortable with the porn thing?

Hemingway: I mean, it freaked me out, I’m not going to lie. I think I was so passionate about the whole story that it’s kind of something that it needed. It freaked me out, but also knowing that it wasn’t me was kind of OK for me -- although I’m not in denial that people are going to think it’s me because a lot of people don’t watch the end credits, and it’s really well cut. But as much as it scares me, and is such a scary thing to do, it’s such a neat film that I think that one ending scene is kind of the most perfect ending for any movie, and I just love it. … I’m not a huge fan of porn, but I really wanted to embrace the world from a different perspective, where it’s not a tragedy, it’s not coming from a tragic place.

THR: How much of the film was improv?

Hemingway: Most of it was improvisational, to be honest. It was like, we were given some lines, and you always had to know where you were going to end up in the scene, but a lot of it was improvisational. A lot of it was scary in a way that you can’t really craft. But it’s actually one of the most fun things I’ve ever done. You really have to be present in the situation that you’re in because a lot of time you were working with real people, who didn’t know until they were done working with us that they were on film and working with actors.

THR: Which points were that?

Hemingway: The whole entire porn convention. We had a hidden camera. I had a hidden mic. People thought I was a real porn star at a real booth. All those people talking to me.

THR: So they were just big porn enthusiasts.

Hemingway: They all kept coming up to me and saying: “I really love your movies. I want to work with you.” And I was like, 'Let’s go!' It’s so weird and crazy. And all those people playing bingo, we just stood in the bingo hall.

THR: Was anyone upset about being caught on camera?

Hemingway: A lot of people at the porn convention were really upset that they were on camera. Some of them were like parents, and some of these guys were like, “I’m a schoolteacher.” And you’re like, OK. … But the thing is, there is no judgment on them because they are just the ones that have the balls to get their asses off the computer and go to an actual porn convention. Which I have to say is kind of hilarious and really fun.

THR: Really?

Hemingway: Yeah. It’s an adult amusement park.

THR: It’s like a Comic-Con but for porn.

Hemingway: Exactly! It’s just like Comic-Con. You get some whacked, crazy people, but it’s so much fun. I think if you come to it from a point of not taking it seriously -- a lot of these people go, and they’re there to see one porn star whom they’re obsessed with -- but if that’s not your basis, it is a fun time. It’s hilarious.

THR: What would you do if you found that money, in that situation?

Hemingway: Oh, I’m such a guilty person, I’d totally give it back.

THR: No hesitation?

Hemingway: I mean obviously, I think that part of me would want to keep it in a way because it’d be like, oh I found it, and it’s -- what is that saying? Finder's keepers? But no, even if I’d try to do that, I’m too guilty. I remember when I was 14, I stole a little bracelet from a vendor, like an outside cart vendor, it was me being rebellious, and I had a lot of friends who loved to steal ChapSticks and little things, and so it was me trying to include myself in the situation. So I stole this bracelet. And I had it for a full day, but I couldn’t wear it because I felt so guilty. So when I wasn’t with my friends, I went and brought it back.

THR: So you are Ernest Hemingway’s great-granddaughter? Did you ever feel pressure to be a writer?

Hemingway: I would never write, ever. I might as well exile myself.

THR: Why?

Hemingway: Because it’s like, if I were related to Monet, I don’t know if I would be comfortable becoming an artist because it’s too much, the comparison. If I wrote a book and put it out, the comparison to my great-grandfather, the comparison would be hilarious. Every critic, it would be their dream, they’d tear me apart. I’m just not a confident writer, either. I feel like I can’t make sense of things in a way. I’m so scatterbrained when I write.

THR: Do people ask you to?

Hemingway: People ask me all the time. And my mother is an actress, and my aunt Margaux was a model. And it’s funny, as much as I’m all about I’m my own person, and I’m making my own name for myself, I have grown up in a world where most of these people who are like me are children of famous parents. So it’s easy to become the socialite and be famous for that. But my whole thing was, as much as I was inspired by what my parents do, and growing up on film sets, watching that made me really want to do that. I am my own person, and I think that the only thing with the Hemingway name is that it has gotten me in the door. But once you’re in there, I know I’m under a huge microscope, and everything you do, people are going through it with a fine-toothed comb and picking at you.

So it’s great, it gets you in there, but once you do, you’ve got to f---ing prove yourself. The modeling, I think it’s different because they don’t give a f---, it’s harder to get in there with a name already, and I think I had to prove myself, and it didn’t matter who I was. But I don’t feel like I’m competing against anything in my family; I’m so honored to be a part of it, but I also know I am my own self, and I’m not riding anyone’s coattails because I know I really worked for something.

看这部电影的原因只是因为当时它在人人影视的首页，而且个人喜欢西方电影以人名（这部剧里面是女主狗狗的名字）或者普通名词来命名影片，虽然翻译成中文经常变成四字短语什么的，还以偏正短语居多== 往往更形象但是始终失去了原本简单到包含一切的感觉【当然只是个人看法，而且貌似扯得有点远。。

下面回到影片本身，之所以温情是因为描述的是独居老人Sadie和年轻女孩Jane的友情，虽然这段友谊刚开始的动机不纯：Jane买下了老人的旧水瓶，却惊讶地发现里面藏着的一万块钱，但她确实试着想还回去，而且试图在生活中做到补偿老人。刚开始，老人对她非常抵触，当然这也是人之常情，年纪轻轻的女孩整天跟在独居老太的背后还想办法搭讪这不是骗子是什么。个人认为两人真正的友情展现始于那次超市之行，Jane没能及时出现在约定地点，Sadie自己默默地往回走。后来找到Sadie的Jane在车上默默牵起了老人的手，想必那时候观众也都明白正如她所说的，Jane无论如何是不会丢下老人的，阳光洒下，这是我觉得影片里最温情的一瞬。

本以为两人的友谊就这么平淡地发展下去，但是朋友间照看宠物的行为却让Sadie产生了对失去的恐惧，可以说是再一次产生这种深深地恐惧。小狗意外的丢失，老人几近崩溃的寻找，这段看的我直流泪TTATT 联系到影片结尾，失去十八岁的女儿，又失去了丈夫，只剩自己孤身一人。如今这段友情她要不起，也承受不了Jane的托付，只是因为怕失去，而这，是她再也承受不了的。

影片的结尾我很喜欢，虽然愤怒的Melisa告知了老人所谓“真相”，而且在老人重新整理旅行箱的时候我确实有了“天哪！不会不去巴黎了吧！”的担忧，但是老人还是最终彻底敞开心扉，让Jane自己看了老人丈夫及女儿的墓碑【这段镜头先是让观众与Jane同样陷入迷惑。结尾导演并没有给出关于两个人的答案，但是当我看到这里时，心里留下的只有乐观。毕竟，友谊是同时滋润两个人的，一起经历的种种，真真假假，大概也只有当事人才能体会。

回头一想，无论是对于高龄独身的老人，还是拮据的年轻女孩，一万块真的不如一段真正的友谊来的珍贵。



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~·~

个人很喜欢影片中的人物塑造，真实，丰满。Jane确实是个女优，而且影片也完完全全不带掩饰地展示出来了，这是她的工作，也是整个人物的一部分。但这丝毫没有影响她内心的善良，她真实、立体、不容忽视。即使是有些自私、不可理喻的Melisa也有她脆弱，让人产生共鸣的一面。当她发现Jane藏起来的钱之后，我本以为“完了！她肯定要把这些统统花光了！”但是实际上，她还是把大部分的钱又放了回去，并且在心里默默期待其实Jane是拿她当真正的朋友，Jane内心也是希望把钱能花在她身上的，这种想法，也不免让人生出几分怜惜。。

整部片子就是一个那又怎样的调调。

我拍porn video又怎样，我不也是热爱生活装饰房间，关爱弱小，收获意外之财会惴惴不安,认真工作，真诚待友。

她拍porn拿我钱又怎样，我一个孑然一身的老太婆有花不完的钱，她能载我去逛超市，陪我玩bingo，还想着带我去巴黎圆梦。

某些人道貌岸然，自以为是，就算面子再好看那又怎样。

ps:衣服真好看。
