2001年,我刚上大学,某一期的《疯狂英语》杂志有一期有过希区柯克版本的《蝴蝶梦》的摘录,开篇的台词真是美爆,读起来唇齿留香,梦幻诡异,那个年代的影视资源真的是匮乏,所以我只能反复听磁带根据声音来推测出神经质的女主和狂暴症的男主,以此构成我对这部剧的全部想象力。

电影在营造“前女友,心头的朱砂痣”这个概念展开,温顺白玫瑰PK桀骜不驯的红玫瑰,得到的和失去的,年轻旺盛和病态消逝。故事的元素应有尽有,有《50度灰》霸道总裁爱上灰姑娘的玛丽苏元素,有《简爱》哥特式的纵火场景,《呼啸山庄》的ghost魂牵梦绕,还有童话故事里好奇心害死猫,非要打开那扇隐秘之门发现血脉膨胀秘密(《焚舟记》里也有一篇)

人的大脑有两个系统,快与慢,每天的信息呈几何倍数铺天盖地,为了能够以最低消耗去运营,人的大脑往往选择快系统去对接外部信息,这也就是为什么女主以傻白甜加弱鸡的形象出现,不假思索接受外部信息,然后得出一个完全错误的结论:自己的先生还深爱着前妻,自己活在对假想敌的无效抵抗和阴影下白白浪费了幸福时光。日日被认知偏差导致的焦虑,妒嫉和恐怖产生大量有害的肾上腺激素,加深了幻觉的作用,直到被丹佛太太逼到墙角,她才开始思考和反抗:我才是德芙夫人,而不是Rebeca

3B:Breeding,brain,Beauty,Really?

他们说一个好的妻子需要具备3个条件,教养,大脑和美貌,again,这是一个偏见,很明显,3B属于素质冰山模型的上半部分,而一个真正的high performer(高绩效贡献者),最重要的素质来自于下半部分,例如善良,利他,爱和包容等,而这部分被Rebecca的3B掩盖,拥有3B的Rebecca很显然是个强大的个人贡献者,她可以办最炫party,无论男女为之倾倒在其石榴裙下,然而谈到妻子的角色,这个角色显然不胜任。

所以,曼德拉庄园的每个人不是被鬼魂环绕,而是被认知偏差困扰。

Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again. It seemed to me I stood by the iron gate leading to the drive, and for a while I could not enter, for the way was barred to me. Then, like all dreamers, I was possessed of a sudden with supernatural powers and passed like a spirit through the barrier before me. The drive wound away in front of me, twisting and turning as I advanced I was aware that a change had come upon it. Nature had come into her own again, and, little by little, had encroached upon the drive with long, tenacious fingers. On and on wound the poor thread that had once been our drive, and finally there was Manderley-Manderley , secretive and silent. Time could not mar the perfect symmetry of those walls. Moonlight can play odd tricks upon the fancy-and suddenly it seemed to me that light came from the windows. And then a cloud came upon the moon and hovered an instant like a dark hand before a face. The illusion went with it. I looked upon a desolate shell--with no whisper of the past about its staring walls. We can never go back to Manderley again. That much is certain. But sometimes in my dreams I do go back-to the strange days of my life-which began for me in the South of France…
