舞女大盗

老大原来是JLO，怪不得连头发尖都散发着性感。相比之下，来自初来乍到妈妈扮演的亚洲舞女根本像个邻家女孩……走路姿势眼角眉梢都是性感的反义词……也许这样更显得选择这个行业着实无奈吧。

JLO气场很强，像妈又像姐罩着舞女小妹。

那些混迹脱衣俱乐部的金融狼，尽管被几个舞女又下药又骗钱，但压根让人同情不起来。

JLO对着他们也是一副“乖乖吐钱给姐花”的霸气和不屑。但你看她对舞女小妹就不一样了，谁说女子之间只会勾心斗角！JLO真是宠溺这个半路捡来的小妹！讲真，亲老公都没有这么好的。

大冬天的天台上，小妹穿着三点式找大姐取经如何做个厉害的脱衣舞娘。大姐二话不说先把小妹揽入暖烘烘的毛毛外套，开始了相互依赖扶持的一场冒险。

大姐眼中的华尔街狼分三等，其实普通人又何尝不是？老老实实勤勤恳恳的，自始至终都清贫。偷鸡摸狗的混个中等。真正吃人不吐骨头的高居食物链顶端，也见不得人。

小的时候看的寓言故事，总是讲做人要诚实，比如你丢了一把铁斧头，碰到神仙来询问，只要讲真话，他会送你一把金斧头。

长大了才渐渐明白，整个世界都在黑吃黑。

我当然选择做个老实人，但不觉得这是高尚，不过胆小而已。

正直高尚的人根本无法在这个世道存活。

大部分人都是浑浑噩噩，只要没越过道德底线，没人觉得自己有错。

舞女也许更加敢爱敢恨！

哪怕到最后，小妹为了养娃出卖了大姐和其他两个伙伴，做大姐的始终把小妹儿时照片随身携带在包包里。小小一只包，装着她一生中最重要的宝贝。一生这么长，遇到那么多的人，宝贝的只有两三个。

Constance 面临的问题是：友谊更重要还是亲情更重要。她选择了亲情，提倡母亲对儿女的爱胜过于私人友谊。

由于她是该电影的主要人物，这也是一个价值观导向，她的选择被安插在最后，也是高潮，表现本片对于脱衣舞女郎对人下药的惩罚。

可是脱衣舞这个职业的存在是有道德争议的，用马克思的术语来说就是被异化的职业。在这里我可能以己度人了，我很介意肢体上与人接触，尤其是陌生人。脱衣舞女郎做的是用身体勾起客人的欲望，并和客人接触。放弃自己的空间为工资取悦别人太悲哀了。这使我认为：客人必定不是清流，他们在放纵自己。

所以从这点来说，我觉得被药的男人没有立场以道德立场责怪脱衣舞女郎。他们应该为自己没有操守负责，即使被骗。孔子有句话叫别人骗你去陷阱是别人的错，但是你自己跳下去就是你的错了。这群被药被盗刷卡的男人就是例子。

重要剧透：最终纽约警察破获信用卡连环盗刷案，为那些遭到劫掠的华尔街精英们伸张了正义，维护了美国法律的尊严。

本片跟姜文导演的《一步之遥》存在着一个很大的相似点，两部影片都给观众以“戏不够，舞来凑”的感觉。本片中文片名翻译得不错，“舞女”和“大盗”确实是影片的最大看点，不过前提是这两个要素得结合起来，才能形成看点。实际情况是本片前半段只有舞女而不见大盗。看完全片之后，其实可以理解主创想要反映的是美国[哔]情行业与华尔街的共生关系，为此在前半段经济危机未来临的部分做了大量铺垫。就一个故事而言，自然是“舞女”和“大盗”这两重矛盾身份结合起来，更能构成戏剧张力。如果导演只是单纯对舞女这个职业感兴趣，也可以走《魔力麦克》的路子，专注于这个特殊行业从业者之间的互动，那就别扯大盗的事。既然扯了，而且还在宣传时有意放大了犯罪元素，那就请用好这个噱头，不该在前半段遮遮掩掩，舍不得透露给观众看。

我最大的不满足其实来源于本片的选角。我当然不具有批评两位女主角不漂亮的立场，不过她们确实不是那种能在外形上给我带来足够强烈生理刺激的类型，或者说得再直白一点，就是缺乏撸点。可能有些人会觉得不服：詹妮弗洛佩兹那么火辣的身材，怎么会没有撸点？我也不知道什么原因，看到本片里的她，总会不由自主地联想到巨石强森。或许换个角度想，也正是她比较成功地演出了角色所需的大姐头气场，才会给我这种女版巨石强森的印象吧。

影片最后落脚点转向了两位主角的姬情，其实有点跑题了。不过在整体比较垮的叙事节奏的反衬之下，这种跑题倒显得像是影片的优点。小心翼翼叠好放进皮夹里的两张照片，多多少少会让人联想到李安导演的《断[哔]山》。

故事主要内容看似以吴恬敏扮演的Destiny的视角展开，但其实观众从头到尾跟随的都是女记者的视角。前面观众跟她一起做Destiny的聆听者。随着采访意外中断，好像视角发生了一次切换，其实只是原本作为主要信息提供者的Destiny离开了我们的信息接收范围。话说这位女记者在爆料方面也算是经验丰富了，不过现在她不去碰“绊脚石计划”“铁手计划”之类的政府机密，改去采访脱衣舞娘了。想比起CIA，总归还是脱衣舞娘要体面和干净得多。

Destiny那个临阵脱逃的老公很容易让人想起《喜剧之王》里出现在柳飘飘回忆片段里的人渣前男友。不过Destiny强在善于自学成才，即便没有遇到一个像尹天仇那样专业的表演指导，在送服药过量陷入休克状态的客户去医院时，仍然展现出了一个演员的自身修养。

在这个场景中，通过电影摄影来构建情绪是最大的特点，有助于描绘两个主角在情感上结合的高光时刻。这一刻的关键潜台词是展示命运之神在他们的第一次互动中是如何被雷蒙娜所陶醉的。

主导色彩是轻微的紫粉色和暖黄色/橙色。根据色彩心理学，"粉色 "暗示着浪漫和女性化，这给画面增加了一丝幻想，并将这两个女人描绘成近乎超现实的超级英雄；同时，黄色和橙色包裹着她们，特别是在Ramona身上，这将她转变成一个理想化的精力充沛又温暖的人，被Destiny所崇拜。

就色调而言，这一幕的饱和度很高，给人以感性和光芒。在这一幕中，Destiny刚刚在楼下看到了Ramona，这是她的第一次表演。在这一幕中，当Destiny要求开灯时，Ramona用她巨大的海岸将Destiny包裹起来。命运号爱上了雷蒙娜的光环，基本上被她迷醉了。凭借其饱和的色调，色彩选择很好地发挥了它们的作用，并帮助被摄者从屏幕上迸发出来，携带了大量的活力、能量和温暖，这些都在他们之间产生。

灯光帮助摄影师Todd Banhazl创造了这个超静态的场景。主灯是一个巨大的背光--一个带有橙色凝胶的24K钨丝灯，放置在三个街区外的一个带有大型建筑起重机的兀鹰上。由于Destiny被Ramona迷得神魂颠倒，钨丝灯给Ramona带来了巨大的华丽的温暖光环。补光灯放在相机的右侧，一个弹跳器正对着他们的脸，把他们皮肤上看到的金色背光反弹回来。在相机的左侧是一个粉红色的LED灯（一个数字Sputnik），它在他们的皮肤、高光和珠宝中描绘出粉红色；它也突出了背景中的空调机。由于更大的光源会产生更多的反射，它帮助场景变得不那么干净，而且接地气，与电影般的锐利形成对比。

立体感的深度也能得到灯光的帮助。在空调机后面的左侧隐藏着一个雾化器，它推送的雾气捕捉到了温暖的背光，给背景带来了重量级的蒸汽和雾气，实现了千里眼和大气层透视的组合效果。此外，一个叫做Solaframe的移动灯被用来描绘背景。这种戏剧性的灯光帮助那些变得过于沉闷和平淡的背景建筑获得了色彩对比的蓝色，从而使温暖的粉橙色人物脱颖而出；它模仿月光，打在女人身上，提供进一步的浪漫。

对比和平衡得以实现，元素和主题的视觉权重通过一个人造屋顶窗台得到调整。最初，演员们没有什么可坐的，所以一个建有LED灯的窗台进入场景，模仿来自建筑内部的光源。这个场景需要一个白点，让观众的眼睛可以停留在上面，作为一个基点，因为场景的其他部分需要显得超级有色彩和黑暗。这是一种让它变得黑暗而不感到阴暗的方法。此外，托德-班哈兹尔用潘那维申DLX 2拍摄了这个场景；通过使用解调潘那速度镜头，他可以打开镜头，改变一些特性，让捕捉到的图像和镜头更容易闪光，软化黑色和高光的光芒。

就我个人而言，我从Banhazl的电影技术中学到了如何使用各种光源和反弹器，可以帮助我创造一个超静态的场景，也可以创造一个具有所需维度重量的平衡场景。小的和大的光源来提供场景所需的色调，并利用色彩对比来平衡视觉元素，甚至创造主导地位。

In this scene, the construction of mood through cinematography is the greatest attribute that aided in depicting the highlight moment where the two main protagonists are emotionally bonding. The key subtext of this moment is to show how Destiny is becoming intoxicated by Ramona during their first interaction.

The dominant colours are slight purplish-pink and warm yellow/orange. According to the colour psychology, 'pink' suggests romantic and feminine, which adds an ounce of fantasy to the screen, and portrays the two women as nearly hyper-realistic superheroines; Meanwhile, yellow and orange colours wraps around them, especially on Ramona, which transfers her into an idealized energetic yet warm person, being adored by Destiny.

In terms of tonality, this scene is well saturated, which lends a sense of sentimentality, and radiance. In the scene, Destiny has just seen Ramona for the first time after downstairs giving her killer performance. In this scene, Ramona wrapped Destiny up with her giant coast when Destiny asked for a light. Destiny falls in love with Ramona’s halo, basically intoxicated by her. With its saturated tonality, colour choices played their roles well and helped the subjects to burst off the screen, carrying an amount of vibrancy, energy, and warmth which are generating between them.

Lightings helped cinematographer Todd Banhazl to create this hyper-stylized scene. The main light is a giant backlight - a 24K tungsten light with an orange gel, placed three blocks away on a condor with a large construction crane. Since Destiny is so intoxicated by Ramona, the tungsten light gives a big gorgeous warm halo on Ramona. Fill light is placed on the right side of the camera, and a bouncer facing their face, to bounce back the gold backlight that’s seen in their skin. On the left side of the camera is a pink LED light (a digital Sputnik ) which paints the pink in their skin, in the highlights, and in their jewelry; it also highlighted the AC unit in the background. Since bigger light sources can create more reflections, it helped the scene to get a little less clean, and grounded, to contrast with its cinematic sharpness.

Dimensionality depth is well aided by lighting as well. Off to the left behind the air conditioning unit hid a fogger back, it pushes fog which catches the warm backlight, giving the background weighted steam and haze to achieve a Chiaroscuro and Atmospheric perspective combined effect. Moreover, one mover light called a Solaframe is used to paint the background. This theatrical light helped the background buildings that were getting too dull and flat to gain a colour contrasted blue so that the warmer pink-orange characters stand out; it mimics moonlight, hitting on the women, to provide further romance.

Contrast and balance are achieved, the visual weights of elements and subjects are adjusted with an artificial rooftop ledge. Initially, the actors had nothing to sit on, so a built ledge with an LED light that imitates light source coming from inside the building comes into the scene. The scene needs a white point that audience can rest their eyes in and hold on to, as a base, because the rest of the scene needs to appear super colourful and dark. It’s a way to make it dark without it feeling murky. Additionally, Todd Banhazl shot the scene with Panavision DLX 2; by using detune Panna speed lenses he could open up the lenses and change some of the characteristics, allowing captured images and lenses to flare easier, softens the blacks and highlights glow.

Personally, I learned from Banhazl’s cinematography techniques that how to use various light sources and bouncers could help me to create a hyper-stylized scene, and also a balanced scene with needed dimensional weights. I will definitely practices utilizing small and big light sources to deliver the tonality a scene needed and use colour contrast to balance the visual elements or even create dominance.

一个人看了这部电影，偷偷看着美女们跳跳钢管舞，很是养眼，感觉一天的疲劳顿时烟消云散。可是，看到他们专坑硅谷大佬们，心里突然不是滋味。

为什么呢，虽然咱不是大佬，但咱也是个程序员，感同身受吧，好为程序员们抱屈。

程序员们容易么，一天到晚的忙的像个狗，碰见经济危机照样下岗没饭吃。

貌似虽然挣了不少钱，但是基本没有娱乐生活，生活单调苦逼的很。

所以，免不了要偷偷的去趟夜总会消遣一下，结果还被玩了仙人跳。

结果只能自认倒霉。

为什么舞女专挑程序员？

因为程序员有钱又木讷，受了骗只会偷偷承受，他们不像小混混受了蒙蔽拍案而起，不像商界精英身边不乏美女如云，他们既想寻求点刺激，但还有点知识分子的羞耻心，出了问题不敢声张。

哎，苦逼的程序员。

First thing first, garnering hefty Oscar buzz aiming for BEST ACTRESS IN A SUPPORTING ROLE trophy, Jennifer Lopez cunningly capitalizes on the Academy’s time-tested proclivity of category fraud, as it is in evidence, her Ramona Vega, a veteran stripper-turned-felony is the co-lead in the third feature film of woman writer/director Lorene Scafaria.

Hot on the heels of Hollywood major studios’ corrective measures in the wake of the ongoing MeToo Movement, which foregrounds the box office appeal of sororal solidarity (OCEAN’S EIGHT, WIDOWS, etc.), HUSTLERS blatantly flaunts its male-gaze factor by telling the story of a posse of female strippers and kick-starts its narrative with the erotic pageantry of their strutting and sashaying voluptuousness and money-procuring flirtation. Edging towards the age of 50, Lopez is the veritable stunner in her pole-dancing entry bravado, but that’s almost all she wrote relative to the toxic male gaze.

Engineering as an interview of former stripper Destiny (Wu) by journalist Elizabeth (Stiles, ever so stuffy), HUSTLERS chronically examines Destiny’s complicated relationship with her mentor Ramona initiated in 2007 when they both work in the NYC stripper club Moves, but less is transparent why Ramona takes Destiny under her wings in the first place, any sapphic transgression is meticulously erased from both parties, they are at best partners-in-crime, “doesn’t money make you horny?” is the only sexy talk we can get.

After the subsequent financial crisis thinning out the clientele, Destiny tentatively drops her line of business and starts a family, when that turns out to be a disaster, she reunites with Ramona and her other two protégés, Mercedes (Palmer, crackling with alacrity) and a barfing-prone Annabelle (Reinhart), together the quartet concocts a scheme to max out the credit card of their Wall Street clients by drugging them insensate, so that, they can hardly recollect what happens the night before and dare not go to the police to admit their sordid goings-on.

Sooner or later, their lucrative business runs out of gas due to unreliable new addition, mounting internecine strife and Ramona’s ill-advised decision to hive off their deal from the stripper club, consequences finally catch up with them, and Destiny, ignobly turns out to be a fair-weather friend (yes, blame it on the kid, motherhood is a mental illness), which compounds our ambivalence of our protagonist and tips the scale towards Ramona’s motherly affection that rounds out this sober but workmanlike dissertation of capitalism’s underbelly.

Cramming zeitgeist ear-worms into its chronically arranged plot development (Usher has a cameo to re-enact the glory in his heyday), HUSTLERS triumphantly milks audience’s nostalgia to great extent, and proffers another leading role for Asian-American rising star Constance Wu, who ripens into a more world-savvy role that attests her chops (her seething angst of juggling both motherhood and career hustler after frantically fielding an unexpected accident is the highlight), but one can easily see why Lopez, embodying both preternaturally age-defying lissomness and emotional candidness, is raved for her career-best outing, finally, not just a famous-for-being-famous celebrity in the Oscar ceremony, she can actually vie for the highest reword as an actress, that is the life-affirming story the Academy members find pretty hard to resist.
