♦ 劇情簡介 Plot


In 1962, Tony "Tony Lip" Vallelonga, a tough bouncer, is looking for work when his nightclub is closed for renovations. The most promising offer turns out to be the driver for the African-American classical pianist Don Shirley for a concert tour into the Deep South states. Although hardly enthused at working for a black man, Tony accepts the job and they begin their trek armed with The Negro Motorist Green Book, a travel guide for safe travel through America's racial segregation. Together, the snobbishly erudite pianist and the crudely practical bouncer can barely get along with their clashing attitudes to life and ideals. However, as the disparate pair witness and endure America's appalling injustices on the road, they find a newfound respect for each other's talents and start to face them together. In doing so, they would nurture a friendship and understanding that would change both their lives.

感想 Review

電影名稱”Green Book”源自於在1963~1966年之間出版的《The Negro Motorist Green Book》,它是一本幫助非裔美國黑人找尋「黑人友善」的飯店、餐廳、加油站等的書籍。電影的時間背景是設定在1962年,是美國種族歧視還十分嚴重的年代。

片中的唐納·雪利是一名富有教養、體面的黑人,儘管他和普羅大眾對黑人的刻板印象有著天壤之別,他仍然因為膚色而遭受無理的對待。在電影中,政商名流花錢聘請他來做演出,看似是當時對於不同種族所釋出的善意,卻能從眾多細節中看出人們對黑人的偏見和種族歧視。唐納·雪利身為宴會的演奏嘉賓,理應受到隆重的接待,卻因為他的膚色而得住進破舊的旅館、遭人嘲笑,連上廁所也需要半鐘頭的車程才有簡陋的「有色人種廁所」能使用。

《幸福綠皮書》運用了詼諧幽默的方式來闡述嚴肅的種族議題、重現當時的歷史傷痛,這部電影讓兩種截然不同的文化、種族和階級激盪出令人驚豔的火花,在豐富感官之餘,也能讓觀眾省思。
