一开始还没意识到，frank家窗外的空地就是911的废墟。
他说：再撞一次我也不搬家。


2道冲天的蓝色光柱，那样巨大的幽灵。
到底想纪念什么呢？


有一天--也许人生彻底失控了--会油然而生荒诞的感觉。
一瞬间灵魂出窍，看自己的身体孤独机械的在世界上走走停停，就像看一部闷死人的电影。
没剧情也就罢了，连背景音乐都没有。


想起当年同桌的女生，如今居然去了华尔街，彻底两个世界。她当年数学还不如我吧。
第一个陪我看电影的女生呢--虽然只是出于好心，帮我实现个夙愿...

我的镜子上很干净，没有白色的单词。
自己也歇了吧。

结尾，爱德华·诺顿看到公共汽车里的黑人孩子，孩子在车窗上写下他的名字“TOM”，从诺顿的角度看是“MOT”，然后诺顿写下了自己的名字“MONTY”，用“MONTY”减去“MOT”，看看你得到了哪两个字母？

导演是斯派克·李，所以这不太可能是巧合

一种宁静的绝望。

影片的台词，背景音乐，镜头都很赞。这里只谈对影名的理解。

毋庸置疑，印象最深的两段，就是开始时Monty(爱德华诺顿饰)在他父亲的餐厅面对镜子诅咒整个美国社会以及自己的生活的长达5分钟的fuck.
和结尾Monty的父亲开车送他去监狱的路上他父亲的独白。
我始终觉得，只有最后这一段独白，才是本片的重中之重。所谓的第25小时，就是Monty梦境中父亲描绘的那幅田园诗歌般的画面。
前面的一切都是铺垫。之前24小时的告别仪式，每一分每一秒都弥漫着现实的残酷。却又不得不面对。而这24小时过后的下一个小时，7年的监狱生活的开始，人生必将陷入更深重的黑暗之中。

人们当面临未知总不由自主的恐惧。弱者选择把这种恐惧表现出来，以期待得到鼓励与帮助。强者选择压制甚至忽略这种恐惧，从容面对。有时候，没有谁能真的帮谁。
在看过《越狱》这种以“密切跟踪Mike的行踪拍成的大型监狱生活指南性的纪录片”之后，正常人都知道，在美国，或许没什么比锒铛入狱更恐怖的了。但是我们的Monty是坚强的，他选择了“硬着头皮直面惨淡的人生”！
巨大的恐惧被强压下去了，主人公从头到尾都没有歇斯底里，他只是有条不紊的处理完所有的留恋，以最理智的态度为那未知的第25小时做着准备。
太宁静了，他怎么可以这么理智！以至于电影中Monty的女朋友Naturelle替我们喊出了这份疑问---我觉得他今天晚上很不平常，我想要看到他恐惧的样子（I want him to act like he's scared.）
但是恐惧有什么用呢
It won't do any good to us.
绝望，常常是不能分享的。人必将独自品尝属于他自己的那一份孤独。

他其实多么想逃避这一切。他其实多想要重过此生。
我知道。因为最后一段是这么演的么~
从他父亲描绘的新的生活，其实正是Monty美丽而渺远的梦境，梦不会说谎，它在我们的主人公终于放松的那一刻跳出来告诉我们，Monty一直这么理性与坚强，其实心里有多害怕。害怕到想要不顾一切的逃离。
他宁愿放弃曾拥有的一切，隐姓埋名，重过一生。过一种生活，仿佛之前的种种，30年的光阴从来没发生过---It all came so close to never happening...
在那段梦里，他的父亲反复又反复的强调，you can't come back ,and you never look back.
一个人究竟要聚集多大的勇气才能对自己朝夕相处了半生的生活彻底决裂？将过去的人生彻底否定去过另一场人生？！
其实一直我们是不知道那些画面是Monty的梦境的，导演把现实与梦里的画面衔接的非常了无痕迹，他故意迎合了观众的期望，让我们以为善良俊朗的主人公逃脱了入狱的噩梦。虽然即使面对这或许已算是最好的逃脱现实的情景，我仍然感到难过的要死。而导演竟然在最后我们终于开始认同那样的一生或许还不错的时候，把画面切回了现实--开往监狱方向的车仍然在行驶，Monty依然鼻青脸肿惨不忍睹的睡着。。。
我忍不住唏嘘--原来仅仅是场梦啊---同时更加抓心挠肝的难过
他爹平静富有磁性的旁白仍在继续---This life came so close to never happening...

原来Monty睡着了的这25th Hour，it never existed.
过去。梦境。一切。就像从未发生过一样。

附最后一段父亲的旁白-----
（F:Father M:Monty）
F:Give me the word,and i'll take a left turn.
M:Left turn to where?
F:Take the GW Bridge and go west.(去乔治华盛顿桥，然后往西开)
Get you stitched up somewhere and keep going.
Find a nice little town.
On the way,stop in Chicago for a Cubs game.
You always told me you wanted to see Wrigley Field.
M:Dad...
F:I'm saying that if you want it...if that's what you want,I'll do it.
M:No,they'd take your bar.
F:My bar.Jesus.My bar.They can take my bar to hell and back.You think my bar is more important to me than you,my only child?
Give me the word,and we'll go.
M:(think)They'll find me.
They'll find me sooner of later.
F:You know how they find people?They find them when they come home.
People run away,but they usually come back.That's when they get caught.So you go...and you never come back.
(Monty suddenly looked at his father...And I guess that's when he fell asleep.)
You never come home.

We'll drive.
We'll keep driving.
Head out to the middle of nowhere.(开到中部的无人区)
Take that road as far as it takes us.
You've never been west of Philly(费城),have you?
This is a beautiful country ,Monty.
It's beautiful out there.
Looks like a different world--mountains,hills,cows,farms,and white churches.
I drove out west with your mother one time.before you was born.
Brooklyn to the Pacific in three days.(用了三天从布鲁克林开到西海岸)
Just enough money for gas,sandwiches,and coffee,but we made it.
Every man,woman,and child alive,should see the desert one time before they die.
Nothing at all for miles around,nothing but sand and rocks and cactus and blue sky.
Not a soul in sight.(连个鬼影都见不到)
No sirens, no car alarms,nobody honking at you,(没有汽笛声，没有汽车喇叭声，没有人会冲你按喇叭)
no madman cursing or pissing on the streets.
You find the silence out there.
You find the peace.
You can find God.
(singing..keep driving...)
So,we drive west.
Keep driving till we find a nice little town.
These towns out in the desert--you know why they got there?
People wanted to get away from somewhere else.
The desert's for starting over.
(Getting into a bar.)Find a bar,and I'll buy us drinks.
I haven't had a drink in two years,but I'll have one with you,one last whiskey with my boy.
Take our time with it--taste the barley,let it linger.(享受它的每一分每一秒，品尝大卖的味道，让它在口中萦绕)
（They drunk.Father laughing）
And then I'll go.
(Monty took off his necklace and pass it to his father)
M:I want you to keep that.
F:(nodding,.)I'll hold it for you.
(they get out of the bar and say goodbay.)
I'll tell you,"Don't ever write me.Don't ever come visit."
I'll tell you,"I believe in God's Kingdom,and I believe I'll be with you again and your mother,but not in this lifetime."(they hugged.)
(Slow music plays)
(Engine turns over)

You get a job somewhere...a job that pays cash,a boss who doesn't ask question.
And you make a new life and you never come back.
Monty,people like you.It's a gift.
You make friends wherever you go.
You're gonna work hard.
You're gonna keep your head down and your mouth shut.
You're gonna make yourself a new home out there.
You're a New Yorker.That will never change.You got New York in your bones.
Spend the rest of your life out west,but you're still a New Yorker.
You'll miss your friends,you'll miss your dog,but you're strong.
You got your mother's backbone in you.(你有你妈妈的志气)
You're strong like she was.
You find the right people,and you get yourself papers.(找个正确的人，给你自己弄张出生证明)
A driver's license.
(taking pictures.)
You forget your old life.
You can't come back.
You can't call.You can't write.You never look back.
You make a new life for yourself,and you live it.You hear me?
You live your life the way it should have been.
And maybe...
This is dangerous,but maybe after a couple of years,you send word to Naturelle.
(He met Naturelle.and they celebrated New Year's eve together.Naturelle's with baby.)
You get yourself a new family,and you raise them right,you hear me?
Give them a good life,Monty.Give them what they need.
You have a son.
Maybe you name him James.It's a good,strong name.
And maybe one day,years from now,long after I'm dead and gone,reunited with your dear mother,
you gather your whole family together,and tell them the truth,who you are and where you come from.
You tell them the whole story.
And then you ask them,if they know how lucky they are to be there.
It all came so close to never happening.
(back to the reality...)
This life came so close to never happening.
(Man vocalizing)

《25小时》不是典型的斯派克.李，黑人导演闯进了伍迪艾伦的领地，开始拍摄纽约故事，看似一个人的内心自我挣扎，其实是斯派克李的一贯手法，凸显人与环境的关系。作为环境的纽约不幸成了诺顿在卫生间对着镜子咒骂的对象，FUCK纽约的一切，包括它的复杂与对立。从小跟随父母从亚特兰大搬到纽约布鲁克林区的斯派克李对于纽约这样一个城市有着特殊的感情，我不能说比伍迪艾伦还深，但至少是斯派克李风格的。

作为一个毒贩的爱德华诺顿24个小时后将在第25个小时开始他七年的监狱生活，有谁能改变这一切？父亲、朋友或者情人，到最后才发现父亲这个角色的确让人敬仰。父亲说，永远不要回家，永远不要回纽约，不要给我写信，不要来看我，才能永远逃亡。离开了纽约这样一个城市环境，人的身份会变吗？答案是会。没有了毒贩、夜店、中央公园、狗、朋友，没有了所有的一切，生活就不是原来的样子了。毒贩就不再成为毒贩，但25小时后，纽约还是纽约！

如果一天里真的有第25个小时，那么这多出来的一个小时所为何用？是深入内心的反思，还是痛定思痛的赎罪，是抛开现实的幻想，还是充满希望的期待？

影片开始时，Edward Norton饰演的主人公开着豪华轿车游曳在纽约的夜色中，一时兴起地救了一只在街边奄奄一息却依然能朝着靠近的陌生人嚎叫的狗，因为他感觉出了它求生的欲望。而影片结束时，坐在父亲老式吉普里的伤痕累累的他却只能无力的斜靠在座位上。他又何尝不想被拯救，从而赎回一份本应是平淡的生活。

如果你人生中的一个选择，让你必须面对7年的牢狱生涯，且一切都已无可挽回。那么，在你失去自由的最后一个24小时里，你会做些什么？在那亦真亦幻的第25个小时里，你又会做些什么？

Edward Norton饰演一个生活在纽约的毒贩，因为东窗事发而要入狱7年。本片要讲的就是他失去自由前的最后一天里发生的故事。清晨，哈德逊河边，镜头由远及近缓缓地切入河边长椅上我们的主人公和那只黑白斑点狗。一天的故事就从这里开始。一人一狗走过破旧衰败的街道，回到他曾经就读的中学，却得知自己在校队的篮球助攻记录已经作古，而那可能是他生命中唯一引以为豪的一点辉煌。还是一人一狗穿过华丽整洁的街道，回到家。门前的石阶上坐着苦苦等待的女友，那个多年以前坐在公园里的秋千上，让他一见钟情的女孩。事发前的甜蜜温情因为对女友告密的怀疑而化成今日的疏远冷漠，即便在搭档面前依然固执地为自己曾经的最爱辩解。他去和经营小餐馆的父亲吃最后一顿晚餐。二人的对话中透露了他的家庭背景和当初干起毒品生意的被迫无奈。本应被安慰的他故作坚强地安慰着不断自责的父亲，而洗手间里，崩溃的他却是那样的不堪重负。晚上和儿时的两个朋友在夜总会狂欢，享受这让他得到富贵同时让他失去自由的那份特权，却终于发现告密的人竟然是自己一直的搭档。再次回到家中，把狗托付给朋友，将心中的愧疚倾诉给女友，然后去了却最后一桩心事。又是清晨，又是河边，三人一狗的背影在镜头中由近而远。因为担心着未来铁栏内暗无天日的生活，他恳求继而激怒自己儿时的挚友在入狱前把自己揍得鼻青脸肿以破相。拱桥下一场打斗后，他在朋友撕心裂肺的哀号中踉跄的离去。

生活经常和人们开着这样那样的玩笑。很多时候，我们迫于现实，不得不作出一些不情愿的选择。也许当初你也曾挣扎，也许慢慢地你学会适应。但若干年后的一天，现实会不会猛然间让你坠到谷底，感觉就像跟你开了一个荒谬绝伦的玩笑。你突然发现，你并没有勇气承受昔日的选择带来的结果。于是你绝望，无助，你丧失了所有对你无比熟悉一切的耐心和希望，就像Edward Norton在洗手间里对着镜子那段经典的内心独白。绝望的他fuck了他生活中的每一个人，fuck了整个城市的一切。可是到最后，他发现其实是自己抛弃了自己。这让我不由得想起了那句话，“生活是铺天盖地的欲望，而我们是赤手空拳的孩子”。太多的诱惑无时无刻不在勾引着我们走向那虚幻的峰顶，走向那坠落的一刻。我们需要多少克制，多少责任，才能在钢筋水泥的丛林里，在社会编制的法则里全身而退。可能更多时候，是像jacob在夜总会的洗手间里吻完自己的学生后那样落荒而逃。

影片接近结尾时，Edward Norton坐在父亲的车上向监狱驶去，最后一次打量这个熟悉无比的街道，突然觉得自己曾诅咒过的每个人都是那么的亲切和蔼。看着他和旁边公车上的小孩互相在车窗上划出自己的名字，一丝温暖霎时流过我的心田。而结尾处父亲娓娓道来的生活，那个属于第25个小时的生活，都是浸在暖暖的色调里，和贯穿全片的冷色调形成鲜明的对比。那是一种多么平凡却又美好的生活，一种曾经唾手可得却和自己擦肩而过的生活。有那么一刻，我真的愿意相信这就是结局，但镜头一转，那张伤痕累累的脸将我们拉回残酷的现实。这种一天一地的巨大反差凸现了那份悔恨，一切就差那么一点就成为可能。也许，我们要记得的只是：在那第25个小时里，面对生命中的那许多个路口，选择自己能够承受的转弯，然后勇敢地向前。
