Kubrick told me that he admired David Mamet's House of Games. Was he hinting that I should adopt Mamet's anorexic allsiveness? That Kind of mannered dialogue and elaborate plotting determine and limit perfomance.
库布里克乐意从中获取他想要的东西,(我猜)比如地下赌场的冷峻气氛,还有弥漫全片的紧张感,把它们移植到《大开眼界》中。如果这样,库布里克是成功的,House of Games却仍然是一部我不敢恭维的电影。
