《黑暗中的舞者》一部震撼心靈的電影,具有深淵一般的穿透力,歌舞片中少有的經(jīng)典。現(xiàn)實與理想,執(zhí)著與信念,主題深刻得讓人窒息。
影片展現(xiàn)了20世紀(jì)60年代美國華盛頓底層社會的一面。塞爾瑪有一個令她心痛的秘密:由于遺傳因素,她的視力正慢慢地衰退,只能靠著高度近視鏡才能維持微弱的視力,她發(fā)現(xiàn)兒子吉恩也有同樣的疾病,如果她不能掙到足夠的錢支付動手術(shù)的費用,吉恩也難以逃脫變瞎的命運。為了給兒子湊錢動手術(shù),塞爾瑪開始日夜不停地加班,將辛苦賺來的每分每毫都裝在一個小鐵皮盒里。
盡管現(xiàn)實是如此殘酷,塞爾瑪還是有自己的消遣方式——她的精神支柱是對音樂的激情,特別是對充滿著歌唱、舞蹈的好萊塢音樂劇感興趣。在工廠的歌舞團里,塞爾瑪經(jīng)常和工友們排練《音樂之聲》,她把自己想像成劇中的主角,以此給予自己疲憊的心靈以撫慰,并自我沉醉。同時,她還有兩個很好的朋友——車間里的女工頭凱茜和暗戀她的司機杰夫,有這些好心人關(guān)愛她,即使生活困苦,塞爾瑪也覺得其樂融融。
