……我自己不對!留白不夠。
二OO五年編舞時頭腦想著張旭、懷素,一路往「狂」走。空間的留白照顧了。時間的留白琢磨得不夠。首演以來一直在大戲院演,舞台精力經過空間過濾,到了觀眾席有張力,無過分的壓力。像沙德勒之井的狀況沒發生過。
但是,好的編舞設計本身應該站得住腳,不能過度依賴舞者的詮釋,舞者累了,甚至用稍差一點的舞者來跳,在每個戲院仍然要發光。
「狂草」要拉皮!到巴塞隆納就動手!」
林懷民 {自己的一把尺(2007. 06. 21 倫敦‧英國)
【拉皮】:去除臉部皺紋的手術。在耳朵前﹑髮鬚後將皮割開,把臉部的皮膚拉緊,切除掉多餘的皮膚再行縫合,刀痕可以用頭髮來掩飾。施行拉皮手術,最多可使人看起來年輕十歲左右,但時間一久照樣會老化。(教育部國語辭典)
我突然想到,這「拉皮」應該是 1922年開始用的” face-lifting,經過十來年(1934)定形為” face-lift/facelift ”
可是一般字典不收這「拉皮」的俗稱。而這樣解釋:
vt. (及物動詞 transitive verb)1(建築物,汽車等)作外觀上的改善 2...整容
n. (名詞 noun):整容;翻新;改裝
日文:美容整形(自動車などの)モデルチェンジ改装.
facelift
noun
1 [C] a medical treatment which tightens loose skin to make the face look younger 拉臉皮

2 [S] treatment to improve something, for example a building, to make it look more attractive:
The bank is planning to give its 1930s building a complete facelift.

facelift 

Pronunciation: /ˈfeɪslɪft/ 




NOUN

1cosmetic surgical operation to remove unwanted wrinkles by tightening the skin of the face.
1.1procedure carried out to improve the appearance of something:the station has undergone a multimillion pound facelift



facelift, technically known as a rhytidectomy (from Ancient Greek ῥυτίς (rhytis) "wrinkle" + ἐκτομή (ektome) "excision", surgical removal of wrinkles), is a type of cosmetic surgery or facial toning procedure used to give a more youthful facial appearance. There are multiple surgical techniques and exercise routines. Surgery usually involves the removal of excess facial skin, with or without the tightening of underlying tissues, and the redraping of the skin on the patient's face and neck. Exercise routines tone underlying facial muscles without surgery. Surgical facelifts are effectively combined with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) and other facial procedures and are typically performed under general anesthesia or deep twilight sleep.
