VIP2014-10-17生命之书片中，男主角马诺洛（墨西哥演员迭戈·鲁纳配音），要击败情敌华金（查宁·塔图姆配音），赢得爱人玛利亚（佐伊·索尔达娜）的芳心。为此，他不但必须在剑术上胜过马诺洛，以及击剑高手玛利亚本人，还得穿越“铭记之地”（The Land of the Remembered），抵挡种种诱惑，重回人间。影片瑰丽斑斓，色彩丰富，充满墨西哥文化元素。墨西哥人认为，死亡是生命的归宿，也是新生的开始。每年11月的前两天为传统节日“鬼节”（Dia de Muertos），全国都要隆重庆祝，带着面具到处游玩，面包和糖果都装饰着骷髅的形象。片中“铭记之地”的色彩、乐器乃至食物，以及马诺洛的骷髅造型，都从“鬼节”的传统习俗中汲取灵感。
VIP2014-01-01缪斯Edward Dunstan is an artist obsessed by his muse. Every photograph and every movie conveyed the same meaning: What he wanted to see. His muse waited in vain for him to see her as she was, but he could not. And so, like the mermaid in his latest movie who grew legs and left him, so does his muse. For months his days and nights are filled with watching her on the screen. His anger turns to self-pity... turns to acceptance... Only now does he understand what he put her through. When his latest letter to her is returned, he binds himself in chains and climbs into the very tank of water his muse spent many unhappy hours.
