摘要

对Moussa Sène Absa来说，音乐不仅仅是对电影叙事的补充；仔细分析他的长篇电影《菲莱表》（1997年）和《布鲁埃夫人》（2002年），可以发现他独特地用音乐来表达对后殖民时代塞内加尔城市社会日常社会生活困难的评论。尽管这两部电影都涉及棘手的社会问题，谴责腐败和不公正，但它们都是美丽而悠扬的，围绕着明亮的色彩和积极、充满活力和欢快的音乐构建。在这篇文章中，我详细地考察了歌曲的歌词与电影的叙事和社会信息之间的联系。特别是，我展示了电影的信息是如何通过两位女主人公的解放希望而出现的。

Musical, textual and visual interplays in Moussa Sène Absa’s Tableau Ferraille and Madame Brouette

For Moussa Sène Absa, music does not merely complement a film’s narration; it is an integral part of it. A careful analysis of his feature length films Tableau Ferraille (1997) and Madame Brouette (2002) reveals his unique use of music to convey commentaries on the difficulties of constricted daily social life in postcolonial Senegalese urban society. Though both films tackle gritty social issues and denounce corruption and injustices, they are beautiful and melodious, built around bright colours and positive, vibrant and cheerful music. In this article, I examine in detail the links between the songs’ lyrics and the films’ narration and social messages. In particular, I demonstrate how the messages of the films appear through the emancipatory hopes of the two female protagonists.

期刊介绍： The Journal of African Cinemas will explore the interactions of visual and verbal narratives in African film. It recognizes the shifting paradigms that have defined and continue to define African cinemas. Identity and perception are interrogated in relation to their positions within diverse African film languages. The editors are seeking papers that expound on the identity or identities of Africa and its peoples represented in film. The aim is to create a forum for debate that will promote inter-disciplinarity between cinema and other visual and rhetorical forms of representation.
