BIRDMAN OF ALCATRAZ - 2/2 : 港譯《 天牢長恨 》Movie, Music & Song





1962 - BIRDMAN OF ALCATRAZ 
港譯 :《 天 牢 長 恨 》
Burt Lancaster 畢 蘭加士打 : Robert Stroud
Karl Malden 卡路 馬登 : Harvey Shoemaker
Telly Savalas 泰利 沙華拉 : Feto Gomez
Betty Field 比提 菲露 : Stella Johnson
Edward O'Brien 愛德華 奥伯倫 : Thomas E. Gaddis

"BIRDMAN OF ALCATRAZ" - Movie
Thomas E. Gaddis (1908-1984), 一位專於囚犯傳記故事的小說家。1955年的作品, 講述一名他所認識的囚犯 Robert Stroud 的故事, 由 United Artist 聯藝影片公司拍製, 1962年七月三日面世, 一齣長達兩個多小時的人物傳記電影。

電影與真實故事有很大的差距之外, "Birdman 鳥人" 這别號是來自 Kansas 肯薩斯州 Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary 聯邦感化監獄, 並非 San Francisco Bay 三藩市海灣的 Alcatraz Island 監獄。

他在獄期間, 著作分别於1933年和1943年出版, 亦成為監獄圖書館的藏書之一, 亦曾有機會重閱自己的箸作。而電影在他離世前十八個月已面世, 雖然在 Alcatraz Island 監獄亦有囚犯的電影室, 不過, 這類電影是不准許播放的。有曾在監獄工作的退休人士稱, 這電影過份美化了 Robert Stroud, 更戲謔: "當年的 Robert Stroud 没有機會看到這電影, 否則他會從輪椅中彈起來!"

THE BIRD MAN - The Highwaymen with Burt Lancaster
BIRDMAN OF ALCATRAZ 日本:《 終 身 犯 》

THE BIRD MAN - Rare Version
Music: Elmer Bernstein
Lyric: Mack David
Vocal: The Highwaymen
Spoken Lyric: Burt Lancaster

Burt Lancaster:
I sit in my cell and I stare at the floor
The walls, the ceiling, the bars on the door


Highwaymen:
And at times he can hear far away, far away
The song of a bird from an old yesterday
A bird that he found unable to fly
Alone in the cold almost ready to die

Burt Lancaster:
I'm a man who once killed
A man who must dwell for the rest of my life
All alone in this cell


Highwaymen:
A poor little bird he took back to his cell
And held it and nourished it until it was well

Burt Lancaster:
For the rest of my life there'll be six iron bars
Six iron bars between me and the stars


Highwaymen:
But the poor little bird didn't know it could fly
And much too afraid, too fearful to try
Then the bird grew strength from a man who was strong
And soon spread it's wings and it burst into song

Burt Lancaster:
I sit in my cell & I stare at the floor
The walls, the celing and the bars on the door


Highwaymen:
And at times he can hear far away far away
The song of a bird from an old yesterday
And at times he can hear far away far away
The song of a bird from an old yesterday
