Blue Gate Crossing 《藍色大門》

DRAMA ▎85 MINS ▎Yee Chih-Yen ▎2002

《藍色大門》是由易智言編導，桂綸鎂、陳柏霖、梁又琳主演的劇情片。曾於2002年第55屆坎城影展「導演雙週」單元展映，也參加過多場國際級影展。電影描繪了了高中生孟克柔、林月珍和張士豪之間懵懂的青春愛情以及成長的故事，也是不少當代台灣人共同的青春記憶。

《藍色大門》深刻的描繪了情竇初開的高中生對愛情/ 初戀的探索。初戀是如此的美麗燦爛，充滿不確定性，亦是多數人們印象深刻的生命階段 (Faces of Life)。《藍色大門》不用性別的刻板框架定義愛情，而是透過三個主角單純的互動，細膩的呈現在喜歡和愛中迷茫的臉譜、單戀卻不得心上人注目的臉譜、焦慮著未來成為大人會變怎樣的臉譜、一心想要在喜歡的人面前展現自己最好的一面，卻拙於言辭的臉譜......

Once screened at the Cannes Film Festival, “Blue Gate Crossing” is a drama film that depicts teenage relationships and growth. It also represents nostalgia for the current generation of Taiwanese people.

“Blue Gate Crossing” tells the story of the first love, its blurriness, uncertainty and charm. The movie is deliberately focusing on the interactions and feelings between three main characters and not to be confined by the contemporary definition of sexuality. The different faces of life as one explores love, fears rejection, stresses about adulthood and learns how to express oneself.
