上海同时还上映Tom Hanks的Sully,看完《但丁密码》里Tom Hanks演的蓝登教授,他在电影Sully里的表现又是如何呢
Sully- Trailer
看trailer演员演得不错。
刚才看了一下Wiki,这部电影的社会效果有些争议。这类电影,我觉得其实和当年中国的那些“周扒皮”类的文学作品差不多。正面看叫“报告文学”,反面看叫流氓文学。年轻时我很喜欢看这类作品,因为用真实的人物做主角,给人以很强的“真实感”。但现在年纪大了,对社会上事物的复杂性认识得更充分了,现在我对这种作品产生了某种距离感。
就好比我的小说《孟大奶外传》吧,“孟大奶”是一个完全虚构的人物,无论怎么编派这个角色都没有问题。如果我用家园网友梦大奶做主角,然后还用孟大奶的故事,这样的做法就很不妥当了。
在下面的争议中,我觉得NTSB的说法是很对的。事后的调查是为了总结经验,以便后来的飞行员遇到类似情况时采取正确的措施。这不是谁迫害谁的问题。不能为了树立一个英雄,就把他的对立面打成反面人物。虽然调查员的名字按Sully的建议给删掉了,但主角本人还用了真名,客观上还是丑化了那些调查人员。这和国内那个小说《高玉宝》一样。作者声称是自传体小说,那自然会导致红卫兵把当年雇佣他的地主当“周扒皮”的情况。虽然下现实世界中,那个地主啥也没干。
Controversy[edit]
Depiction of NTSB investigators[edit]
The film generated controversy for its depiction of the
National Transportation Safety Board as "prosecutorial and closed-minded".
[68] In a promotional video preceding the release, Eastwood claimed that the NTSB had railroaded" Sullenberger by "trying to paint the picture that he had done the wrong thing."
[68][69] After its release, NTSB investigators objected to their portrayal.
[70] Christine Negroni wrote in
The New York Times that "the film’s version of the inquiry veers from the official record in both tone and substance" and "depicts the investigators as departing from standard protocol in airline accident inquiries."
[68] NTSB lead investigator John Balzano disputed the depiction, saying that investigators "weren't out to embarrass anybody at all", and a former NTSB investigator expressed concern that moviegoers would take it as evidence of "government incompetence".

Stephen Cass, writing in the UK paper
The Guardian, declared that "In depicting government investigators as petty and clueless, the Hudson plane crash film trumpets a
libertarian worldview at the expense of passenger safety",
[71] noting that "It’s not hard to see why this tack appealed to strident libertarian Eastwood" and explaining that
Around the world, the NTSB’s investigations are regarded as setting the gold standard for impartiality, perceptiveness and making recommendations with important safety benefits. The NTSB has saved countless lives. Yet the NTSB has no regulatory ability: to turn its recommendations into practice, the board relies solely on a moral authority founded on its reputation for diligence. The stakes are high – the board currently has a list of 10 critical safety improvements that it’s trying to get implemented, including, for example,
positive train control, something that would have spared 243 people last year from a
deadly Amtrak derailment.
Sully has
smeared this reputation for the sake of a hero who needed no defending. It will create a headwind in the minds of the public and policymakers that the NTSB will be struggling against for years to come.
[71]
Tom Hanks told the
Associated Press that Sullenberger had reviewed an early draft of the script, which identified NTSB investigators by their real names, and asked that these be removed. According to Hanks, Sullenberger felt that the real-life investigators "were not prosecutors" and it was not fair to associate them with changes in the story to depict "more of a prosecutorial process."
