希区柯克有一个著名的例子:两个人走进一个屋子,坐下来谈话,突然桌子底下的炸弹爆炸了。——观众大惊失色,但这种紧张只能持续15秒,这个过程是“惊骇”。相反,如果在他们走进屋子前,观众首先看到一个凶手进屋将炸弹藏在桌子下,并且肯定这个炸弹会在1点钟爆炸,而两个人走进屋子却没有发现炸弹,仍然坐下来谈话,对面临的危险浑然不觉,墙上挂着的钟,显示现在是差10分1点,观众却在接下来的10分钟内一直处于紧张焦虑之中——那么这个过程叫做“悬念”。 Hitchcock has a famous example: two people walked into a room, sat down to talk, and suddenly the bomb exploded under the table. - Audience was shocked, but the tension lasts only 15 seconds. The process is “horrified.” On the contrary, if, before they entered the room, the audience first saw a murderer entering the room to hide the bomb beneath the table, and affirmed that the bomb would explode at 1 o’clock while the two entered the room without finding a bomb and would still sit down Conversation, imperceptible to the danger of being faced, the clock hanging on the wall, showed that it was 10 pm and the audience was nervous and anxious for the next 10 minutes - then the process was called “suspense ”.
