2024年5月24日,讲述国际知名眼科医生王明旭博士奋斗故事的传记电影《明》 (Sight)将在全美公映。该片以中国科技大学77级校友王明旭医生的自传《从黑暗到光明》(From Darkness to Sight)为原型,是好莱坞第一部关于中国留学生的励志电影,荣获国际基督徒(ICVM)电影节头奖-Gold Award-Best Picture.

公映当日,一场由电视剧《缅街》团队发起的友情观影会将在时代广场AMC EMPIRE 25 举办,来自不同文化背景的百名纽约网红(西班牙、墨西哥、非洲、地中海、加拿大、爱尔兰等), 将在裔锦声博士包场的四场电影放映厅,参与现场直播,用他们自己的个人流量,向他们的族裔讲述这部带有中国元素的好莱坞电影——这个移民故事也是他们的故事。

以下是来自投资人、学者子非鱼参与电影Sight全美讲演的观后感,供大家分享——

电影《Sight》以其真挚而深刻的叙事,不仅赢得了观众的心,也在国际舞台上获得了极高的认可,标志着华人在全球电影舞台上的重要突破。本片以王明旭医生的真实经历为原型,展现了一个中国留学生如何在异国他乡坚持自我、追逐梦想并最终取得非凡成就的励志故事。这部电影不仅是一部讲述个人奋斗的影片,更是一面镜子,映照出无数华人在海外的共同体验与心路历程。

 

 

首先,由于裔锦声博士的慧眼识珠,我们有幸在纽约及后续的全美巡映中,见证了这部作品的力量。裔博士不仅作为桥梁将《Sight》带进了华人世界,更有效地推广了这部作品,使其能够触及到更广泛的观众群体。这种前瞻性的视野对于华人影片的国际化进程具有不可估量的价值。

《Sight》的全美巡映是一次前所未有的尝试,它不仅是一场电影的展映,更是一次文化的传播和交流。巡映期间,约有30,000名观众亲身体验了这部电影的魅力。从借用场地到志愿者的热情帮助,再到观众们驱车数小时追逐一场放映,每一步都凸显了社区的团结与支持。特别是那些通过电影而与家人建立更深连接的观众,以及那些在王医生的帮助下实现学术梦想的年轻人,他们的故事为这部电影赋予了更多层次的意义。

此外,此次巡映不仅在美国进行,还扩展到了加拿大的重要城市,如温哥华和多伦多,进一步扩大了影片的影响力。王医生的初衷——呼吁华人讲述自己的故事,在这一系列活动中得到了充分的体现和响应。

 

 

在此,我要特别感谢裔博士对《Sight》电影的不懈支持和推广,以及王医生的勇气和坚持。他们不仅推动了一部电影的成功,更推动了一个社群的自我表达和文化认同。《Sight》所获得的国际基督教电影节最高奖项——最佳故事片奖,不仅是对电影艺术性的肯定,更是对其深远社会文化影响力的认可。

作为一个见证者,我见证了《Sight》不仅在艺术上的成就,也见证了它如何成为连接不同文化、激发人们反思和对话的桥梁。这是一部值得每个人观看并深思的电影,它提醒我们,每个人的故事都值得被听见,每段奋斗都值得被纪念。

"Sight" — A Monumental Narrative of the Chinese Experience

"Sight," with its earnest and poignant storytelling, has not only won the hearts of its audience but also garnered significant acclaim on the global stage, marking a notable breakthrough for Chinese representation in world cinema. Inspired by the real-life journey of Dr. Wang Mingxu, the film poignantly depicts the odyssey of a Chinese student persevering to maintain his identity, pursue his dreams, and achieve remarkable success in a foreign land. More than just a narrative of personal endeavor, this film acts as a reflective mirror, capturing the shared experiences and emotional odysseys of many Chinese living abroad.

Firstly, credit must be given to Dr. Yi Jinsheng, whose discerning recognition brought "Sight" to the forefront in New York and spearheaded its subsequent national tour across the United States. Dr. Yi has not only served as a conduit for introducing "Sight" to mainstream American audiences but has also been instrumental in its widespread promotion, ensuring that the film reached a diverse and extensive viewership. His foresight and commitment have been invaluable in advancing the international presence of Chinese cinema.

The national tour of "Sight" represents an unprecedented initiative—not merely as a film screening, but as an act of cultural dissemination and exchange. Throughout the tour, approximately 30,000 individuals were drawn to experience the film's allure firsthand. From arranging venues to the enthusiastic support of volunteers and audiences who traveled hours to attend a screening, every facet of the tour underscored the community's unity and support. Notably, the film fostered deeper connections among families and enabled young individuals to achieve their academic dreams with Dr. Wang’s guidance, thereby enriching the film's narrative with profound community impact.

Furthermore, the tour expanded beyond the United States to major Canadian cities such as Vancouver and Toronto, further amplifying the film.
