摘要:周星驰自1988年在影坛崭露头角之后,至今已主演了50多部电影,开创了别具一格以“搞笑”为能事的无厘头影片,而这股“无厘头”风在几年内就迅速席卷了全中国,并且势头强劲,成为平民文化的典型代表,发展为一种当今不可忽视的文化现象,引起了人们广大的关注和讨论。在本篇论文中,我将从当代文化心态上入手,运用后现代主义、解构主义和前苏联巴赫金的狂欢化诗学的理论,并结合周星驰电影中的人物形象、艺术思维等方面来分析,力求得出周星驰电影反映出了当代“反英雄心态”、“无厘头——狂欢心态”和“草根心态”三个方面的文化心态。

周星驰通过其电影中表现出来的反英雄心态,无厘头——狂欢心态以及草根心态,将矛头直指处于转型期的当代中国政治、思想、伦理和道德等方面的困惑与矛盾。在他的电影中周星驰本着嘲弄权威、讽刺经典和解构传统的追求,以大无畏精神,用反叛的视角和颠覆的手段,让一切高雅、严肃和统一性在酣畅放浪的笑闹中轰然消泯。解构的思维,像一把锋利的刀子,割破严肃高雅的面具,让司空见惯的人和事呈现出全新的意蕴。在样式风格上,无厘头、狂欢影片打破传统喜剧的创作规范,大胆借鉴其它艺术样式,兼收杂取,拼贴戏仿,花样翻新,不求完整统一,但求在强烈的反差与不和谐中挖掘出反逻辑的喜剧韵味。在人物形象上,“小人物”的草根心态又让它贴近观众的生活,反映社会底层人民的欲望和生活态度,更容易被大众接受。可以说周星驰电影迎合了后现代文化背景中芸芸众生的审美趣味。反映了当代人,特别是大都市里年轻一代的所见所闻、所思、所感,和他们面对压力做出的表现。
