中年危机

　　这电影估计不会有多少人留意，因为单单看年代，1948年，就会直接忽略过去了。
　　别嫌这个电影译名老套，要是喜欢爵士乐的朋友，这可是非常经典的电影，不信的话，你可以看看演员列表就知道了。
　　一位编纂音乐百科全书的教授，决定走访民间收集现实生活音乐材料，遇上了想摆脱帮派男友的迷人爵士歌手，从此巧遇了一段美妙开怀的音乐与爱情体验。
　　A Song is Born，1948重摄改编于Ball of Fire，承接了类似的故事架构，却更纯粹多彩。
　　全片集结了许多一时之选的爵士歌曲，例如女主角Honey Swanson以独特嗓音演唱的DADDY-O，以及STEALIN' APPLES，FLYING HOME，I'M GETTIN' SENTIMENTAL OVER YOU还有MUSKRAT RAMBLE，随兴悦耳的旋律，都珍贵地随着电影保存下来。 此片的多彩更表现在强大的卡司阵容。
　　Tommy Dorsey, Benny Goodman, Louis Armstrong, Lionel Hampton and Charlie Barnet.活跃于Big Band(大乐队爵士)时代的著名人物，在这部电影里齐聚一堂。1948年，是继Big Band而起的摇摆爵士乐逐渐没落的年代，这样的齐聚一堂相当具有历史意义!
　　而爵士樂的指标性人物Louis Armstrong，也在此片中飾演自己。
　　他沙哑富感情的嗓音也原汁原味的保留了下来。 从任何方面来看，此片都是绝对不能错过的爵士经典!

　　Stuart Gordon, considered a master of the horror genre thanks to classics like Re-Animator and Dagon, decides to do a different move in this strange trip to human morals.
　　
　　"King of the Ants" is about a regular guy, Sean Crawley(newcomer Chris McKenna), a man without any aspiration who just live in his apartment doing the necessary job to live to the next day. In one of his jobs he meets Duke(Gearge Wendt), who introduces Sean to his boss, Ray Matthews(played by Daniel Baldwin). Ray hires Sean as a spy, and orders him to follow Eric Gatlin(Roy Livingstone), an accountant who has been investigating Ray's company. Problems start when Ray, while drunk, orders Sean to kill Eric. And he does it. Things go wrong when Ray decides to make Sean disappear destroying his mind with violent punishment and humiliation.
　　
　　From the point where Sean kills Eric, we go in the same boat with him, as he goes through a downward spiral of human degradation, traveling from guilt, to confusion and finally to his rebirth, in a state where humanity, morals and values are not important anymore. Chris McKenna acting is very important because he manages to be likable even when he is part of gruesome acts, both as victim and/or criminal. He has that look of innocence that hides a dark side and he manages to carry the film.
　　
　　The support cast also includes Kari Wuhrer, as Eric's widow who also becomes a central part of Sean's trip to hell. She gives a fine performance, although it's obvious that Sean is the main character. He is the most developed of all and McKenna's performance is up to the challenge.
　　
　　The film has very disturbing images of violence, and while it may not be as graphic as "Kill Bill" for example, the strength of the violence is in the lack of humanity that the character manifest. He is more than an ant in this world. He is the king.
　　
　　Stuart Gordon has managed to create a film that, while maybe it's not one of his best efforts; it's very well done, has a VERY interesting story to tell, and manages to capture the attention every second of it.
