《孩童杰克》
Films about the difficulties of parenting are nothing new, but A Kid Like Jake explores a topic that’s been sorely underrepresented to date: what it means to be the parent of a non-binary child. Based on screenwriter Daniel Pearle’s 2013 play of the same name, A Kid Like Jake looks at a mother and a father (played by Claire Danes and Jim Parsons) whose four-year-old son is about to enter pre-school. But Jake prefers Disney princesses to action figures and doesn’t identify with what is considered traditionally male. Marital strain ensues as Danes and Parsons struggle with how best to respond to their child’s needs. A Kid Like Jake premiered to raves at the Sundance Film Festival in January with New York Magazine’s Emily Yoshida saying, “Claire Danes and Jim Parsons are stunningly good” and Indiewire’s David Ehrlich saying that it is “a sensitive and nuanced portrait of modern parenting.” Released 1 June in the US (Credit: IFC Films)
关于为人父母之艰难的电影并不罕见,但《孩童杰克》探索了一个迄今为止很少被触及的话题:做非二元性别孩子的父母意味着什么。这部电影基于编剧丹尼尔·珀尔2013年的同名剧本,讲述了一位母亲(克莱尔·丹妮丝饰演)和一位父亲(吉姆·帕森斯饰演)还有他们即将上学前班的四岁儿子的故事。儿子杰克更喜欢迪士尼公主而不是动作片人物,也不认同传统男性应有的举动。在如何更好地应对孩子的需要上,戴恩斯和帕森斯夫妻二人产生了争执并导致婚姻关系紧张。《孩童杰克》在一月的圣丹斯电影节上首映后大获好评,《纽约杂志》的艾米莉·吉田说:“克莱尔·戴恩斯和吉姆·帕森斯演得太好了,令人震撼。”Indiewire网站的戴维·欧利希评论道这是“对现代育儿的敏感而又微妙的写照”。影片于6月1日在美国上映。(资料 Ocean's 8
