最后五个人

故事是这样的：一场核战争后，地球上只剩下最后五个人——他们偶然聚集在山间一栋孤立的房子里。导演几乎没用什么特效，全靠角色微妙的沉默和突然绷紧的肩膀撑起焦虑——当那个收音机炸出一段陌生噪音时，我差点从椅子上弹起来，那种从死寂里抓到的希望，又瞬间被掐灭的滋味，比任何怪物都吓人。詹姆斯·安德森（James Anderson）把一个表面温和、实则神经质的角色演得极其可信——你甚至能看见他手指在桌沿轻微颤抖。如果你看腻了《地球停转之日》那种说教式科幻，或者觉得《海滨》的群像太工整，这部极简主义的小品会让你体会到：最冷的恐惧不是来自外太空，而是对面那个人递来的半块面包。然而，外界的辐射与匮乏还不是最大的威胁——五人之间逐渐浮现的猜忌、欲望和旧日恩怨，让这个小团体内部的张力一次次升级，每一个关于食物、住所甚至情感的决策，都可能决定人类的最终命运。William Phipps饰演的主角从犹疑到冷酷的转变，Susan Douglas Rubes脆弱与坚韧并存的表演，都精准配合了这种舞台剧式的心理解剖。

Post-nuclear-war dramas centering on a small group of survivors now constitute an entire genre in science-fiction films. All of them, in some way or another, can be traced back to this seminal film from 1951 in which five people deal with the possibility they are the only human beings left alive on the planet.　　While most of the later movies exploited this possibility for B-movie thrills, Five adopts a quiet, contemplative tone which some may find dull but which thoughtful viewers are more likely to find, for want of a better word, haunting. There is something about this movie which gets under the skin and which lurks in the corners of the mind long after it's over.
