內容簡介


 是故事,是劇本,也是尋寶記錄,更是史上最奇怪的一部(未拍成的)電影!

 選好你的位置,戲要揭幕啦!



  作者Josh Frank向來對歷史中的奇聞軼事非常有興趣,而當他發現了一部名為《Giraffes on Horseback Salad》的劇本殘片,從此大大的為之著迷──因為劇本的創作者,居然是聞名世界的超現實主義大藝術家:達利Salvador Dali!



  原來在1937年,達利因為結識美國著名喜劇表演家族Marx Brothers,創作了這齣劇本《Giraffes on Horseback Salad》,又稱之為《The Surrealist Woman》。設定由Marx Brothers中的Harpo Marx扮演西班牙皇室成員吉米Jimmy,與一位超現實的女主角之間的愛情故事,充滿達利標誌性的想像奇幻情節。然而這部作品從來沒能夠真的被拍成電影,劇本更在之後失散而幾近被人遺忘。



  Josh Frank從此展開了拼湊的尋寶之旅,尋訪各大收藏達利作品的美術館、藝術中心,把劇本的模樣一點一滴地恢復原狀。聯手演員、創作人Tim Heidecker與插畫家Manuela Pertega,把還原劇本的歷程,以及劇本的完整故事,演繹為這本打破框架的圖像作品!畫風貼近達利的超現實風格,飽和的全彩印刷,充滿戲劇性與張力的畫面安排,把這部未能成為電影問世的作品呈現在世界眼前,絕對讓讀者驚嘆!(文/博客來編譯)

This lushly illustrated graphic novel re-creates a lost Marx Brothers script written by modern art icon Salvador Dali.

Grab some popcorn and take a seat...The curtain is about to rise on a film like no other But first, the real-life backstory: Giraffes on Horseback Salad was a Marx Brothers film written by modern art icon Salvador Dali, who'd befriended Harpo. Rejected by MGM, the script was thought lost forever. Author and lost-film buff Josh Frank unearthed the original script, and Dali's notes and sketches for the project, tucked away in museum archives. With comedian Tim Heidecker and Spanish comics creator Manuela Pertega, he's re-created the film as a graphic novel in all its gorgeous full-color, cinematic, surreal glory. In the story, a businessman named Jimmy (played by Harpo) is drawn to the mysterious Surrealist Woman, whose very presence changes humdrum reality into Dali-esque fantasy. With the help of Groucho and Chico, Jimmy seeks to join her fantastical world--but forces of normalcy threaten to end their romance. Includes new Marx Brothers songs and antics, plus the real-world story behind the historic collaboration.
