◎影片简介:
宾虚改编自内战时期 Lew Wallace 将军的长篇小说《Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ》,影片场面壮观,气势恢弘。
公元 26 年的犹太省,耶稣开始在民间传道,Messiah 出现的呼声直接威胁罗马皇朝的统治权威,罗马皇帝派遣指挥官梅撒拉 Messala 前往耶路撒冷镇压叛乱。梅撒拉企图利用他和犹太王子宾虚童年至交的情谊,打动宾虚为他说服犹太族人不要反抗罗马。然而宾虚认为反抗者是爱国志士而非叛徒,拒绝了梅撒拉的要求并与他决裂。
宾虚因屋瓦掉到街上砸到总督的意外事件被捕,知道真相的梅撒拉不但不为宾虚开脱,反而拿他处以重刑,想借此建立统治威信,宾虚的母亲和妹妹也因此被关黑牢。复仇成了宾虚生存下来的目的。
宾虚在海战中救了罗马指挥官阿留斯,得以从一个囚犯奴隶变成阿留斯的义子,成为罗马城中的新贵族。念念不忘复仇的宾虚,在阿拉伯酋长的帮助下,在竞技场与梅撒拉进行了一场惊天动地的赛马决斗,梅撒拉用计害宾虚反而自己丧命。
宾虚找到母亲和妹妹的下落,却因她们得了麻风病不能见面,耶稣基督受难拯救了世界,藉着基督的宝血也医治了他们。宾虚历经种种波折与磨难,最终找寻到自己的归宿和信仰。
影片的真正主题是耶稣基督,剧情采用明暗双层结构同时发展,以宾虚和梅撒拉的恩怨情仇为主线,隐藏着耶稣基督拯救世界的主题。整个故事从个人恩怨发展为统治者与被压迫者的民族斗争,最后提升为超越一切的基督救赎精神,刷新了圣经故事给人带来的模式化说教的印象。耶稣基督的形象始终没有正面特写出现在银幕上,而是通过不言自威的侧面和远景描写,鲜明有力地表现出他的特殊身份和力量,这种超越一切的力量和壮丽宏伟的海战场面,紧张刺激、盛大非凡的马车生死大赛,一起构成了这部经典史诗。
威廉·怀勒导演的《宾虚》以古罗马时代犹太人宾虚和罗马军官梅瑟拉之间的恩怨情仇作为主线,点到即止地穿插着耶酥基督降生及其受难的故事,以此一实一虚的剧情线,描述了宾虚这一戒凡夫俗子历经种种波折与磨难而成为英雄,并最终找寻到自己的归宿和信仰的故事。整部电影情节曲折跌荡,场面壮丽宏伟、气势恢弘,经典海战场面和紧张刺激、盛大非凡的马车生死大赛更令人叹为观止、津津乐道,《宾虚》无愧为电影史上史诗古装战争巨片的王者。这部艺术性与商业性兼备的电影巨构更史无前例地获得了奥斯卡金像奖11项大奖,成为奥斯卡史上获奖最多的电影。
《宾虚》保持此骄人纪录长达38年之久,才被《铁达尼号》追平。迄今为止奥斯卡史上获奖最多的总共只有三部电影——《宾虚》(1959)、《铁达尼号》(1997)和《魔戒三部曲:王者再临》(2003),它们都分别获得了包括最佳电影、最佳导演在内的11项大奖。

幕后制作
为了打造真实的海战场景,米高梅决定制造出以假乱真的古罗马时期战船,于是制片方找到了一位终生致力于研究古罗马造船技术的专家。然而当米高梅的工程师Mauro Zambuto看到设计图纸时,直呼:“太重了!肯定会沉的!”不过,制片方还是按照图纸建造了大船,起初下水是成功的,但经过的船只激起了海浪,大船居然被海浪推倒。最后,制片方只好将大船放进池塘中拍摄,为了让船身平稳,还从池底用绳索固定了船体。
虽然大船总算可以堂而皇之的在天空颜色的背景下在“海面”上航行,可水池中水的颜色又成为棘手的难题,因为深棕色的池水与海水大相径庭。制片方找来了一位化学家负责将池水染蓝。不过,化学家投放了一大袋染料之后,池水非但没有变蓝,反而在水面形成了坚固的硬壳,剧组又花费了高昂的代价凿去硬壳。最终,剧组终于找到了正确的染料,池水被全部染成蓝色。在拍摄战斗场面时,一位临时演员坠入水中,全身也被染成了蓝色。
在拍摄船内的场景时,剧组发现巨大的65mm摄影机无处容身,不得不将大船弄出池塘,纵向剖成两半,放在意大利的摄影棚中拍摄。然而摄影棚空间有限,剧组又不得不截断露在船外的船桨。不过一组镜头拍摄下来,剧组发现船桨骤然变轻,演员们的划桨动作很不自然,遂派人去购买弹力活塞装置,这种装置一般都安装在门上,可以让门轻缓的自动关闭。这种装置后来被安装在船桨和船体之间,其提供的阻力让演员们找到了划桨的感觉。
