In Her Shoes 《偷穿高跟鞋》
http://www.inhershoesmovie.com/

IN HER SHOES is the alternately hilarious and heart-rending story of two sisters with nothing in common but size 8 ½ feet. Maggie and Rose Feller are both best friends and polar opposites when it comes to values, goals and personal style.

 Maggie (Cameron Diaz) is a party girl who barely graduated from high school, recycles jobs as quickly as yesterday's newspapers and believes her biggest asset is her attractiveness to the opposite sex. Her recurring state of unemployment leaves her virtually homeless as she bounces between the sofas of her friends and relatives. With no confidence in her intellectual ability, she prizes makeup over books and has an innate talent for choosing the perfect accessories and clothes for any occasion.

 Rose (Toni Collette) is a Princeton educated attorney at a top law firm in Philadelphia. Her beautifully decorated prewar apartment is her haven from the outside world. With her nose perpetually to the grindstone, she struggles constantly with her weight and never feels comfortable in the clothes she wears. Her low self esteem regarding her physical appearance has left her dating life non-existent. Rose's one joy in life is shoes (because they always fit), but unfortunately she has few social opportunities to remove them from her closet.

 After a calamitous falling out, the two sisters travel a bumpy road toward true appreciation for one another - aided along the way by the discovery of the maternal grandmother (Shirley MacLaine) they thought was dead. Through their re-connection with their grandmother, Ella, Maggie and Rose learn how to make peace with themselves and with each other.

瑪姬是放蕩不羈的派對女王,而蘿絲是個正經八百的女律師,兩個不對盤的女人,居然是同一個媽生的,像是兩個星球來的兩姐妹,除了鞋子同樣穿八號半以外,全身上下全無共通點。直到瑪姬闖下滔天大禍,讓蘿絲終於無法忍受,這對姐妹花正式宣告決裂…在這段單獨面對世界的日子裡,她們漸漸懂得去接納並欣賞彼此,再加上她們因為找到了原以為早已過世的外婆,將姐妹的心結打開…她們不再是為著高跟鞋計較的姐妹,她們真心祝福彼此,能走到更遠的地方…

        之前看到預告覺得滿有趣,不過去電影院看是米先生的主意,我想他是要逃避《斷背山》吧 Whatever,《偷穿高跟鞋》還滿不錯的,中英片名都算是點到意思了,而且真的見識到女人對高跟鞋癡迷的模樣,片中的鞋子也真的美到爆,加上甜姐兒CAMERON DIAZ 天使臉孔魔鬼身材,穿什麼都好看!

一開始覺得電影有點小悶,因為不是期待中會一直讓人大笑的手法,但是劇情的鋪陳算是很完整,Rose和Maggie如膠似漆的姐妹情深,誰也離不開誰,但是情人眼裡容不下一粒沙子,而且手帕交搭上情人的戲碼,不論是在現實中還是電影裡,都是很殘酷的考驗。



CAMERON DIAZ 在這部片的表現搶眼,雖然「渾身是勁」、看似對男人一把罩,其實內心很需要安全感,而他的安全感是來自於姐姐Rose。我喜歡她到養老社區探望Ella之後的改變,這部片算是好酒沉甕底吧...


TONI COLLETTE飾演Rose,電影裡要突顯她和Maggie的差異,所以一開始她真的很不美,不過遇到真命天子Simon之後,一切都不一樣了。看完電影的人都說Simon是個好男人,懂女人又懂美食...哈哈



看完電影的人,一定都會對片中Maggie突破閱讀障礙的詩很有印象,
一個是 Elizabeth Bishop

One Art

The art of losing isn't hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
                                                                               
Lose something every day.  Accept the fluster
The art of losing isn't hard to master.
                                                                               
Then practice losing farther, losing faster:
places, and names, and where it was you meant
to travel.  None of these will bring disaster.
                                                                               
I lost my mother's watch.  And look! my last, or
next-to-last, of three loved houses went.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.
                                                                               
I lost two cities, lovely ones.  And, vaster,
some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.
                                                                               
---Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture
I love) I shan't have lied.  It's evident
I love) I shan't have lied.  It's evident
the art of losing's not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.                                                                     

還有讓人感動落淚的...

i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
                                                                                
                                                                                
i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
                                                                               
i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
