大洪水 (2012)

　　The Mississippi River Flood of 1927 was the most destructive river flood in American history. In the spring of 1927, the river broke out of its banks in 145 places and inundated 27,000 square miles to a depth of up to 30 feet. Part of it enduring legacy was the mass exodus of displaced sharecroppers. Musically, the Great Migration of rural southern blacks to Northern cities saw the Delta Blues electrified and reinterpreted as the Chicago Blues, Rhythm and Blues, and Rock and Roll. Using minimal text and no spoken dialog, filmmaker Bill Morrison and composer - guitarist Bill Frisell have created a powerful portrait of a seminal moment in American history through a collection of silent images matched to a searing original soundtrack. 　　译文(2): 1927年的密西西比河洪水是美国历史上最具破坏性的河流洪水。1927年春天，这条河在145个地方决堤，淹没了27000平方英里，深达30英尺。其持久遗产的一部分是大批流离失所的佃农。在音乐上，南方农村黑人向北方城市的大迁移使得三角洲蓝调变得激动人心，并被重新诠释为芝加哥蓝调、节奏布鲁斯和摇滚乐。电影制作人比尔 · 莫里森(Bill Morrison)和作曲家兼吉他手比尔 · 弗里塞尔(Bill Frisell)使用最少的文本，没有口头对话，通过一系列与灼热的原声音乐相匹配的无声影像，创造了一个强有力的美国历史上开创性时刻的肖像。
