Iron Sharpens Iron (2022) 豆瓣
导演: John Richie
“Iron Sharpens Iron”, premiering June 8 at The Broad Theater in New Orleans, captures the community of Ironton’s struggles against racism, industrial encroachment, and extreme weather. Located in Plaquemines Parish, Ironton traces its history back to emancipation, with many of the community’s founders having once been enslaved at nearby St. Rosalie Plantation. Their descendants have remained in the area, maintaining a community despite decades of racial segregation and economic injustice.
Directed by filmmaker John Richie and produced by the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, Iron Sharpens Iron chronicles Ironton’s fight against the development of the Plaquemines Liquids Terminal (PLT) atop land that includes their ancestral burial grounds, as well as the destruction wrought by Hurricane Ida.

Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital Goodreads
Five Days at Memorial
作者: Sheri Fink Random House Audio 2013 - 9
17 hours, 34 minutes
In the tradition of the best writing on medicine, physician and reporter Sheri Fink reconstructs five days at Memorial Medical Center and draws the reader into the lives of those who struggled mightily to survive and to maintain life amidst chaos.
After Katrina struck and the floodwaters rose, the power failed, and the heat climbed, exhausted caregivers chose to designate certain patients last for rescue. Months later, several health professionals faced criminal allegations that they deliberately injected numerous patients with drugs to hasten their deaths.
, the culmination of six years of reporting, unspools the mystery of what happened in those days, bringing the reader into a hospital fighting for its life and into a conversation about the most terrifying form of health care rationing.
In a voice at once involving and fair, masterful and intimate, Fink exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals just how ill-prepared we are in America for the impact of large-scale disasters—and how we can do better. A remarkable book, engrossing from start to finish, Five Days at Memorial radically transforms your understanding of human nature in crisis.

[Made in NOLA] [有聲書] 聽了兩遍。電視劇傳達的信息還是少太多太多了。書聽過之後的感受要複雜好多,提出的問題也遠多於醫護們做了什麼、對不對這個具體和最末端的問題。更多多向的比較也在幫助理解困境、提出各個層面、環節上的問題和可能的辦法。

[Made in NOLA] [Made by USA] 覺得像迫降失敗版的Sully機長。大義凌然的檢察官就這麼從水電氣三通的某地鬥志滿滿地來調查了,以事後諸葛的“冷靜”“客觀”“負責”在一地泥濘裡任意挑揀滿足法律定罪標準的“事實”,但是他們此次的任務卻並不包括調查這一地泥濘是哪來的,也不像Sully有模擬器供調查者反复推演事情的進程來判斷怎樣的操作是必須的,甚至什麼是“必須”也是模糊的。所發生的一切對當時在醫院的人都是不公平的,對醫護是這樣,對因此失去生命的人更是。影片和書構成了很好的互補。有大量的歷史、醫學、倫理、法律以及個人背景是影片沒有辦法介紹的,而以可視的方式還原事件場景是影像不可替代的長處。…醫院後來被本地醫療系統收購,改回原名Baptiste,再再再後來,在那裡迎來了我們的小孩。

New Orleans Music in Exile (2006) 豆瓣

[Made in NOLA] 即便損失掉一切,包括畢生的心血作品,也要回來,只有這裡才有這樣的土壤。哪怕一無所有,一支小號還能喚起tuba的回應,樂隊就會再聚起來,就能重新把紐奧良帶回來。其中一個音樂家基金會經理穿著印著 "There are a lot of places I like, but I like New Orleans better. - Bob Dylan" 的T恤。原來是他自傳《Chronicles: Volume One》裡關於紐奧良的一段。“Everything in New Orleans is a good idea.” 是的呀。[攤手]

[Made in NOLA] 戳心預警。舊日遊樂園裡遊人們燦爛笑臉的影像,從初期的挫敗中重整旗鼓,上下一心要做把這份“快樂事業”做得更好的雄心壯志,這些滿溢著希望和快樂的片段就穿插在公園一片死寂的現狀的介紹中,眼睜睜看到一切在一秒間戛然而止的感覺。這一每次往東去的路上看到那些巨大的遊樂設施,只知道這是個廢棄的遊樂園,沒想到這裡的故事會有這麼大衝擊。最近開發方已確定,是片中介紹的擁有東邊群眾基礎的兩個團體之一。希望重建樂園的Tonya Pope的團隊沒有中標,有Wendell Pierce背書的Troy Henry的團隊會在這裡修建STEM園區、體育綜合體、旅遊交通樞紐、室內水上樂園、物流港。雖然這些可能的確是東區更需要的,但遊樂園不會再回來,感覺還是很失落。或許可以希望這些發展的成果會在以後再帶來一個遊樂園吧。

花脸巴儿
导演: Ai Weiwei 演员: Ai Weiwei
艾未未 | 92分钟 | 2018年
《花脸巴儿》片名源自四川歌谣。歌谣是这麽唱的:花脸巴儿,偷油渣儿,婆婆逮到打嘴巴儿,爷爷抓到扯毛根儿;花脸巴儿,豆腐渣儿,娃娃砸到溅泪花儿,爹娘不见撕心肝儿……
歌谣出处暂无可考;不知是歌谣预演现实,还是时事催生歌谣?《花脸巴儿》来到2008年四川大地震的现场,聚焦于震灾中罹难的中小学生与倒塌校舍所爆发的豆腐渣工程问题。

[2019-12-20] 豆瓣上沒有寫評論,這裡補一句:就想說,美國其實並沒有太多資格來拍這件事。整個片子最讓我出戲的是那種想當然的對社會主義國家運作的俯視。相比而言,《斯大林之死》要鮮活、自然、合邏輯很多。
