初戀的故事 (Jeremy) (1973)
2025-05-07接下來介紹兩部由Robby Benson主演的青年愛情電影。
這又是一部因為歌曲讓我記得的電影。《Blue Balloon 藍色氣球(The Hourglass Song 沙漏之歌)》,由Robby Benson演唱,Joseph Brooks作詞。
情竇初開型愛情片經典作,曾讓1970年代的年輕觀眾傳誦一時。全片以紐約市的一所藝術高中為背景,羅比·本森飾演樸拙純真的猶太男孩,整天只會拉大提琴,有一天在他舞蹈練習室中遇到了優雅而孤獨的女生葛琳妮.奧.康納,兩人逐漸克服彼此的緊張害羞而開始交朋友最後卻因為女孩父親的工作轉換搬家而分手。導演亞瑟.巴朗用真實自然的手法呈現少男少女之間純真的愛,在悠揚悅耳的大提琴旋律伴奏下,恍似一股溫泉流淌在觀眾的心田,帶來無比的感動。

《Jeremy》是一部1973年的美國浪漫劇情片,由Arthur Barron執導,並在1973年戛納電影節上獲得了最佳作品獎。羅比·本森還因其作為主角的表演而獲得金球獎提名。

《藍色氣球(沙漏之歌)》- 由Robby Benson演唱。
Blue balloon (The hourglass song)
I have a blue balloon, a happy tune
Long enough to last me all thru the afternoon
I have the New York Times, fourteen dimes
And explanation of the most profound nursery rhyme
*Before the rivers run dry
Before the last sad good-bye
Let's be kind to one another, we can try
So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out of the hourglass
The carnival is here, the clowns appear
Plastic painted people hold each other near
Hope are always high the echo off the sky
When it's over
There's just the lonely sound of good-bye (*)
Too late to hide it now
It's all around us now
Oh, how I want you girl to lie beside me now
While there is time and all my poems still rhyme
Let me love you now
We can drink the good good wine (*)
