Is this concept different in Eastern versus Western culture? What artful essentials in a f ilm are necessary for the audience to accept laughing at something objecti vely sad\, and even wrong? Are you familiar with The King Of Comedy (Marti n Scorsese\, 1982) and its Chinese counterpart 喜剧之王 (Stephen Chow\ , 1999)? In this club\, we'll watch scenes from both of these critically a cclaimed groundbreakers and discuss this fascinating and very human relati onship of concepts! They say that comedy = tragedy over time. Would you ag ree? Is it a certain type of person who can see the humour in the tragic? Or is it more about the filmmaker? Or the culture? In the old schools of f ilm\, comedy and tragedy are the only two types of stories\, all others ar e derivatives of those two. But what about the human condition? Is it unna tural to marry comedy and tragedy or is it the evolution of art imitating life? Let's sit back with good friends in comfy chairs and watch scenes fr om two thought-provoking and funny yet dark films from both the East and t he West. And\, let's have a fascinating discussion about our mutual journe y guided by Leon\, a psychologist\, cinephile and lover of good conversati ons! 喜剧和悲剧之间有什么内在关联？东西方文化对这两 种表达的理解是否存在差异？一部电影需要具备哪些艺 术巧思，才能让观众愿意笑着看待本身悲伤、甚至带有 缺憾的情节？你有没有看过马丁・斯科塞斯 1982 年的《Th e King Of Comedy》，以及周星驰 1999 年的《喜剧之王》？本 次活动会选取这两部口碑极高、极具开创性的影片片段 进行观看，一起探讨喜剧与悲剧之间，这种极具人性共 鸣的微妙关联。 人们常说，喜剧是沉淀过后的悲剧。你 认同这种说法吗？是不是只有特定性格的人，才能从悲 剧里读出笑点？还是更多取决于导演的创作手法，或是 所处的文化氛围？在传统影视创作体系里，故事只分喜 剧、悲剧两大类，其余题材都是由二者衍生而来。那放 到现实人生中又是怎样？悲喜交织是违和刻意，还是艺 术描摹生活的自然进阶？ 不妨和朋友们一起放松观影， 欣赏这两部兼具趣味与深沉内核的东西方经典影片片段 。在心理学爱好者、资深影迷 Leon 的带领下，一起畅聊 交流，展开一场有深度又有意思的思想碰撞。 DTSTAMP:20260709T101214Z LOCATION:China\,\, Shanghai SUMMARY:Watch & Talk: Comedy vs Tragedy In Film END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
