孤独 (1928)
Lonesome
Paul Fejos于1928年拍摄的默片巨作。展现了提高而不是破坏简单感人的电影故事的精湛技巧，创造性地呈现了普通的工人阶级形象，不傲慢，不羞怯，没有任何的虚伪。导演Fejos对于简单不世故的人与社会环境进行的抗争充满兴趣，这种抗争表现为或漠不关心或充满敌意，这一兴趣持续成为了他此后电影的亮点所在。 影片主要讲述了主人公Mary和Jim长期痛苦的被困于一种城市生活极度的孤独中，最后通过爱情逃离了束缚。影片通过具有强烈的启发性的电影艺术表达了城市生活的困惑与压力，同时讲述了处于工业化环境下的城市里生活的人的故事。

趣闻
Lonesome is a 1928 American sound part-talkie comedy drama film directed by Paul Fejös, and starring Barbara Kent and Glenn Tryon. Although containing a few sequences with audible dialog, the majority of the film had a synchronized musical score with sound effects with English intertitles. The film was released in both sound-on-disc and sound-on-film formats. Its plot follows two working-class residents of New York City over a 24-hour-period, during which they have a chance meeting at Coney Island during the Independence Day weekend and swiftly fall in love with one another. It was produced and distributed by Universal Pictures.
Production
Lonesome, with a three-page outline, was originally intended, by the studio, to be a short, Fejös adapted the outline to feature length.
The studio forced, and Fejos did not direct, three dialogue sequences, with primitive dialogue, and stationary camera, into the film for commercial attraction. Sound design features the repeated use of Irving Berlin's Always.
Lonesome was widely released in the sound version. The silent version was mainly seen in theatres that had not yet converted to sound (e.g., theatres in rural areas that could not afford the expense of converting to sound). Some scenes in existing original prints of the film are colored with stencils (purple).
Cinematography includes: superimposition effects, experimental editing, roller-coasting camera, roving camera, fast motion, split screens, model work, matte paintings, hand-held shots and dolly shots.
