有時，我會隨意查看電影時刻表，好知道有哪些電影可觀賞。令我驚訝的是，一部美國邪典電影進入了台灣的電影院。《阿比阿弟尋歌大冒險》是《阿比阿弟大冒險》系列的第三部，其中第一部於 1989 年製作，第二部電影是 1991 年。電影製片人過了將近 30 年的時間製作了第三部電影《阿比阿弟尋歌大冒險》。《阿比阿弟》絕對不是什麼嚴肅電影，但在文化上還算是有其重要性的，美國偉大的導演之一亞歷山大·潘恩也可算是這部電影的影迷，因為在佩恩的電影《選舉》（Election) 中，也能找到非常類似基努·李維（阿弟）的角色。原版的《阿比阿弟》電影也被滾石(Rolling Stone）和爛番茄（Rotten Tomatoes）列為史上前十大經典「ㄍㄧㄤ片」（Stoner Film 譯注：此種片意指適合抽大麻之後看的電影）之一。有趣的是，就一部經典的ㄍㄧㄤ片電影系列來說，因為阿比阿弟角色本身並沒有抽大麻，電影也沒有顯示出任何毒品使用。但是，阿比和阿弟的角色卻是基於抽過大麻後的設定。在前兩部電影中，傻笨但善良的二人穿越時空拯救世界。而時間指導人魯弗斯（Rufus），則是最出色但已逝的美國喜劇演員喬治·卡林（George Carlin）。 Read More
