摘要

2009年大热的间谍惊悚片《风声》被广泛认为是新世纪中国类型电影的里程碑。与社会主义间谍电影、同时期的间谍电视剧以及文学原著不同，这部电影的首要特点是大量的酷刑场面。对这些酷刑场面的文本批判揭示了社会主义革命经典和美国恐怖电影的一般元素。《讯息》中的类型混合产生了身体类型电影的感官快感，同时被其革命性的包装所保护。作为中国私人电影积极的商业和政治双重运动的样本，《讯息》说明了中国类型电影制作的策略，体现了中国电影工业的分裂逻辑。

Screening Torture in The Message : The Body and Soul of a Genre Film

AbstractThe 2009 hit espionage thriller The Message ( Fengsheng 风声) was widely regarded as a milestone in Chinese genre filmmaking in the new millennium. Differing from Socialist espionage films, contemporaneous espionage TV series as well as its literary original, the film is first and foremost characterized by its plenitude of torture scenes. A textual critique on these torture scenes reveals the generic elements from both Socialist revolutionary classics and American horror films. The genre mixing in The Message produces the sensorial pleasure of a body genre film while being safeguarded by its revolutionary packaging. As a specimen of the Chinese private film sector’s aggressive dual commercial and political campaign, The Message illustrates the strategies of Chinese genre filmmaking and manifests the splitting logic in the Chinese film industry.
