马里奥·普佐的长篇小说《教父》,1970年在美国出版后,几乎连续十年畅销。1972年美国派拉蒙影片公司把它改编成电影,卖座又创空前纪录,并获得1972年美国奥斯卡金像奖中最佳影片、最佳编剧、最佳男主角三项奖。《教父》虽被西方评论界誉为现代通俗小说中的杰作,实际上就其内容来说,未必比其他一些好的通俗小说写得深刻,不少地方有着明显的追求惊险和猎奇的痕迹。改编后的电影脚本,摒除了原书中某些庸俗的描写,把纽约五大帮会组织之间争权夺利的斗争,暴露得更加集中、紧凑,这对于了解美国黑手党的内幕,提供了更形象的材料,某些技巧也可资借鉴。尽管如此,这个脚本对“教父”父子的描写,仍然带有美化、崇拜的倾向,对帮会之间的仇杀也作了过多的渲染,这些显然是不足取的。关于《教父》小说的介绍,可参阅本刊1980年第1期。本脚本是派拉蒙影片公司交“美中艺术交流中心”美国文艺界知名人士代表团1981年4月访问我国时所赠。
Mario Puzuo’s novel The Godfather, sold in the United States in 1970, sold for almost a decade. In 1972 the United States Paramount Pictures converted it into a movie, hit an unprecedented record hit, and won the 1972 Academy Award in the United States best film, best screenplay, best actor three awards. Although the “Godfather” has been hailed as a masterpiece in modern popular novels by the western critics, it may not be more profound than the other popular novels in terms of its content. In many places, there are obvious signs of pursuing thrills and adventures. Adapted movie script, get rid of some of the vulgar description of the original book, the struggle between New York five gang organization struggle for power, more exposed, compact, which is to understand the inside story of the United States Mafia, provides a more vivid material Some skills are also available for reference. Nevertheless, the script’s portrayal of the Godfather and his father still carries a tendency of beautification and worship, and excessive rendering of revenge on gangs is obviously not enough. About the introduction of The Godfather novels, can see the first issue of 1980 issue. This script is a Paramount Pictures company to pay “Art Exchange Center in the United States,” the American literary and art circles celebrities delegation in April 1981 when they visited our country.
