這幾天板上的氣氛很沉重... 我想每個人有每個人自己療傷沉潛轉化的方法別人無法建議你該怎麼做也無從置喙我自己還是在努力搜尋他的資料希望能更了解他... (音樂舞蹈以外的部分) 下面這封信是 Julien's Auctions 的拍賣品 2009/11/21 會在 New York 被拍賣當然有人會想拿到MJ的真跡還這麼不珍惜竟拿出來拍賣可是不拍賣的話我們也看不到這封信了圖片在此: http://tinyurl.com/lfbdlm 收信人是 Moonwalker 的 camera operator: William Pecchi Jr. (MJ稱他 Pecky) 他的 IMDB info: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0669517/ 拍賣網頁上的圖很清楚 MJ寫的一字一句可以清晰辨認 (可能有少數幾個字我不確定, 如果有誤歡迎指正) 雖然是超過20年的信了但MJ一路走來始終如一的信念: 工作認真對藝術要求完美反對種族歧視愛小孩愛世人... 在信中一覽無遺分享給跟我一起懷念他的大家~~ --------------------------------------------------------------- Pecky, I very very seldom write letters. 我很少，很少寫信。 But in this moving occasion I couldn't help myself. 但在這個感動的時刻，我無法壓抑我自己。 I want to thank you for putting the effort forward to capture the magic and excitement of the people of the world. What you do is a very personal and powerful medium to me. 我想謝謝你，為捕捉這世界上人們的魔力和激動時刻所付出的努力。對我來說，你所做的是一種非常個人化且有力量的媒介。 It is the art of stopping time, to preserve a moment that the naked eye can not hold, to capture truth, spontaneous truth, the depth of excitement in human spirit. 這是一種讓時間停滯的藝術，去保留住肉眼所無法抓住的那一刻，去抓住真實，自然的真實，那種人類精神裡，深刻的興奮之情。 All else will be forgotten but not the films. Generations from now will experience the excitement you're captured, it truly is a time capsule. 除了底片上留存的東西之外，其他的都會被忘卻。從今以後的世世代代都能從你所捕捉的影像上體驗到相同的興奮之情，真的像時空膠囊一樣。 I will not be totally satisfied until I know you’re at the right angle, at the right time, to capture a crescendo of emotion that happens so quickly, so spontaneously. 除非我知道你已在最好的角度、最好的時間捕捉到那發生如此快速、又如此自然的漸強之情緒，我是不會完全滿意的。 What you have done was good. But I want the best, the whole picture, cause and effect. I want crowd reaction, wide lens shots, depths of emotions, timing. 你做得已經很好了，但我要的是最好的，包括全部的影像、因果關係。我要群眾的反應、廣角鏡頭的拍攝、情緒的深度、時機。 I know we can do it. It is my dream and goal to capture the truth we should dedicate ourselves to this. 我知道我們可以做得到。捕捉真實是我的夢想與目標，我們應該要為此努力付出。 The person who makes a success of living, is the one who sees his goal steadily and aims for it universally. That is dedication. There is no other way to perfection than dedication, perseverance. 能夠在事業上成功的人，一定是那些知道自己的目標為何，且持續不斷努力的人。這需要付出。沒有持續的付出和堅持是沒辦法做到完美的。 Just tell us what you need to make it happen. Take the leadership to direct the other camera men. 告訴我們你需要什麼來達成目標。你要當其他攝影師的領導者。 I enjoyed working with you that is why I asked you to come. You have a gentle spirit that’s very likable. 我很喜歡和你一起工作，這也是我請你來的原因。你有一種很可愛的紳士風度。 Maybe I look at the world through rose colored glasses but I love people all over the world. That is why stories of racism really disturb me. 也許我總是戴著玫瑰色的眼鏡（註：比喻把事情看得比較美好）來看這個世界，但我愛這世上所有的人。這也是為什麼種族歧視的故事總會讓我很生氣。 You hurt my heart and soul when you told me of your boyhood in Texas. Because in truth I believe all men are created equal, I was taught that and will always believe it. 當你談到你在德州的童年時，我為你感到心痛。因為我相信所有人都生而平等，我從前就這樣被教導，而我也會一直這樣相信。 I just can’t conceive of how a person could hate another because of skin color. I love every race on the planet earth. 我真的不能理解為何一個人會恨另一個人就只因為皮膚的顏色。我愛地球這個星球上的每一個種族。 Prejudice is the child of ignorance. Naked we came into the world and naked we shall go out, and a very good thing too. For it reminds me that I am naked under my shirt, whatever its color. 偏見源自於無知。我們赤裸裸的來到這世上，也赤裸裸的離開，這樣也好。這提醒了我不管我穿什麼顏色的衣服，衣服底下的我仍然是赤裸的肉身。 I’m sorry to bring up such past news. But in the car I was hurt by what you said. I’m so happy though that you have managed to overcome your childhood past. 我很抱歉提起你的傷心往事。在車上你所說的事真的讓我很難過。但我很高興你已經能擺脫你的童年往事。 Thank God that you’ve graduated from such beliefs of ignorance. I’m glad I’ m never experienced such things. Teach your kids to love all people equally. I know you will. 感謝上帝你已從這種偏見的想法中脫離。我很高興我未曾經歷過這些事。教導你的孩子要平等的去愛所有的人。我知道你會的。 I speak from my heart saying I love you and all people especially the children. I’m glad God chose me and you. 我要從心底說我愛你以及所有的人，特別是小孩。我很高興上帝選中了我和你。 Love, M.
