这首歌MTV的导演David Fincher也是个大人物,他导演的Alien3,Flight Clube,Panic Room,Zodiac and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button大家都应该听说过或者看过吧。
这个MTV和电影Zodiac一样很难看懂,但是如果有人和我一样喜欢电影Blade Runner的话,你就会喜欢这个MTV。
不知道是什么原因,这个片子在美国从来没有在MTV和VH-1被播出过,相反大量的你能找到的这首歌的MTV(包括在youtube上都是Michael Jackson各种Music video或者演唱会的剪辑合成。
你知道原因吗?
WIKI上有一段对这MTV故事情节的描述,是英文的,我贴在这里大家看看吧。
The video is set in a neo-chrome Blade Runner-like landscape, where surfaces reflect light and denote luxury in all its splendor. We see Michael Jackson as a suffering recluse who has come to the conclusion that his girlfriend is cheating. He finds a platinum business card with the name 'Alex' seemingly confirming that she is cheating with the person whose name is on the card. As the video progresses, we learn that the girlfriend is working for a secret exclusive billionaire-boys-club escort agency. Her identity and visual appearance is changed regularly, usually between clients, and is confirmed by the platinum business cards she presents to each client as the night goes on. This reveals that the name 'Alex' on the card found by Jackson is one of her aliases and is not a secret lover. When she senses that something is wrong and defies her watchers to run back to Jackson's home to find him. She finds Jackson's assistant at the door, who refuses to let her in and reveals that Jackson has left and probably for good. The assistant then hands her a collection of her alias business cards revealing that her secret is out and that she has been exposed. Devastated, she is forced to return submissively back to her ruthless employees and continue on as a high class prostitute. The video ends with the ex-girlfriend being prepared for another client while Jackson attempts to sleep on a jet. Throughout the video, a strange ghostly face appears in Jackson's surroundings -- the appearances seem to coincide with Jackson's despair. |
