《美利坚合众国》(The United States of America) 系詹姆斯·班宁对1975年同名旧作的跨时空重构,定位为地景结构主义史诗。影片摒弃公路动态叙事,转以A至Z字母序排列五十州影像,每州呈现两分钟极简静止长镜头。画面堆叠工业废墟、干涸河床与桥底营地,精准勾勒当代美国社会断裂带,将地理版图转化为政治档案。视听风格冷峻克制,环境噪音穿插历史演说,触发地景母题与集体记忆的互文。核心冲突聚焦于空间表意的虚假性与阶级地理的真实性,通过云朵、火车等班宁式美学符号,实现对国家神话的解构。该片适合喜欢《13湖》、慢电影、结构主义实验影像及极简主义地景纪录片的观众。
剧情简介
James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
