調情魔師
Mistress of Spices
6月22日 迷魂你
故事大綱:
浪漫的愛情與無私的奉獻應該如何選擇? 應該幫人定係幫自己?
天露(艾絲維亞莉飾)年輕貌美，自幼接受專業香料培訓，以香料醫百病，兼且她天生異稟可以睇穿人的內心。有外有內，本來不乏裙下之臣，可惜的是有得必有失，可以幫人就要放棄自己幸福!正所謂世界殘酷，著數唔會周街跳，連香料都要約法三章，天露如果要用香料治百病，必須遵守三大原則﹕
一. 香料只能醫人不能自醫不過世事無奇不有，你越唔要愛情，個天越要你愛得死去活來!突然一日，白馬王子德(迪倫麥狄蒙飾)連人帶車不顧一切撞上門!天露為了照顧型男的傷口，不得不破戒，點知一摸就一發不可收拾，愛情由此起，天露心底泛起陣陣漣漪。
香料草藥苦口婆心叫佢遠離靚仔，否則，藥石無靈，你快樂時病人受苦，天露進退兩難，愛又不是，唔愛又不是，頭都大埋。德沒香料草藥的羈絆，一於少理，勇往直前展開強勢追求……
緣來沒法擋，愛情中人最糊塗，到底天露如何於病人的健康與自身幸福中作出抉擇?
不作他人之選的主角們
導演保羅梅達貝哲斯與艾絲維合作《愛鬥氣愛上你》期間，已認定艾絲維為《調情魔師》女主角的不二人選，這位前世界小姐與天露一角出奇的吻合，為了扮演此角，艾絲維特別化上淡妝，穿上印度傳統的沙麗服，以氣質及自然美帶出天露令人無法抗拒的魅力。
為挑選適合的男主角，保羅花了不少功夫，最後迪倫的出現始解決了男角的問題，於面試期間，迪倫初次與艾絲維對戲已擦出火花，艾絲維也這樣認為：「我們一踏進片場，便旋即化身成德和天露，默契一流。」
艾絲維亞莉飾演天露
「世界上最美的女人」這句讚美說話出自男士口中理所當然，但另一個漂亮女人--茱莉亞羅拔絲同樣由衷的讚歎才難得哩。事實為女主角艾絲維亞莉傾倒的，不只茱莉亞羅拔絲一個。憑著一張令人驚艷的面孔，艾絲維亞莉於1994年擊敗各國佳麗，勇奪世界小姐冠軍，此後平步青雲，除了擔任模特兒外，更成為印度電影的第一女主角，1997年接拍第一套電影 《Devdas》後一鳴驚人，從此片約不斷，更獲有Queen of Bollywood 的美譽。
她更是廣告商的寵兒，先後獲得百事可樂廣告合約，並為著名化妝品牌L'Oreal 擔任代言人。艾絲維的威水史可謂多蘿蘿，她於2003年成為歷來第一位印度演員獲邀為康城電影節擔任評審委員。於2004年，她成為首位印籍女性於倫敦的杜莎夫人蠟像館展出蠟像。
艾絲維亞莉深被國際肯定的，不只美貌還有她的才華。艾絲維的近作包括《愛鬥氣愛上你》，此電影同時成為英國及印度的開畫票房冠軍。
迪倫麥狄蒙飾演德
迪倫曾獲艾美獎提名及於1999年贏得金球獎的最佳男主角(電視)，他曾與奇連伊士活合演《火線狙?》，其後亦演出《仙境大道謀殺案》。他最為香港人熟悉的演出是電視劇《律政群英》(The Practice)，迪倫飾演的Bobby Donnell冷靜有幹勁，迷倒不少女士。迪倫於1995年被 《EMPIRE》雜誌選為一百位最性感的電影明星。於1998年，被《People》雜誌選為50位最美麗人士的其中一位。由迪倫擔演性感熱情的德適合不過。

THE MISTRESS OF SPICES
"India is an ancient land famed for its myths, magic and traditions. But when its people leave to start new lives in the faraway lands of America and Europe, what happens to the magic left behind?
This is an immigrant's tale about keeping the magic alive...."
Synopsis
In the magical spirit of Chocolat and Like Water for Chocolate comes THE MISTRESS OF SPICES, a romantic tale of tradition and desire from the team that brought you Bend it Like Beckham and Bride and Prejudice.
----------
The Mistress of Spices is an enchanting and sensual fable about the romantic and personal conflicts that face TILO, a beautiful young woman, trained in the ancient and magical art of spices. Ordained with special powers to help those that come to her, Tilo can sense people's problems with a startling ability to see into their past and future.
Tilo works in a small San Francisco store called the 'SPICE BAZAAR', where, with the guidance of her spices, she finds the perfect remedy for anyone who walks through her door. For her powers to work she must obey three simple but strict rules - she must only use the spices to help others, she must not touch another human's skin and she must never leave her store.
When DOUG, a handsome, enigmatic architect crashes his Harley Davison outside her San Francisco store, she has to tend to his wounds and her life is changed forever. For the first time Tilo's own desires are stirred - is there more to life than helping others? Tilo knows the rules and her spices warn her to stay away. But Doug doesn't have any spices telling him what to do and soon returns with flowers to ask her on a date.
No matter how hard she resists him, his persistence, honesty and friendship draw them closer and closer to each other. When they accidentally touch, another rule is broken and the spices are enraged. The spices are in no mood for either leniency or romance but Tilo is captivated by the force of love and agrees to go on a date leaving her spices behind. The spices begin to punish her - the more she falls in love and defies the rules, the more her customers suffer.
All Tilo wants to do is carry on her work helping others and fall in love as well, but she is forced into a painful dilemma. If she turns her back on her way of life, all the people that she has helped will suffer, but if she doesn't, she will lose Doug forever!
Tilo must now confront her past, her friends, her desires and ultimately the spices to decide if she can fight for a new life of her choosing or must return to the old one.
About The Story
One of the key and unique elements to The Mistress of Spices, is the use of Magical Realism, a literary technique which explores how different cultures perceive reality. Magical realism is found in a variety of literature, and as literary professor Jane Anderson Jones explains,
What is absolutely 'real' to one culture, is 'magical' to the other culture. From a 'Western' viewpoint, the other culture's reality is often described as superstition, witchcraft or nonsense; from another cultures viewpoint (Native American, Eastern, African etc) western logic and science are viewed as 'magic' or disconnected from the spiritual world. The intersect of these different world views is Magical Realism.
In The Mistress of Spices the intersect occurs between the traditions of India and the modernity of America.
From the very outset of the film, it is clear that Tilo lives strictly by the rules of the spices. 1. Never think about your own desires, only use the spices to help others. 2. Do not touch anyone else and 3. Do not leave the store. To begin with Tilo keeps within the restrictions of these rules and the literal boundaries of the shop. She soon realises however, that it is not going to be easy to adhere to these traditions within the environment of modern America where free will is the more dominant force. When Doug walks into her store and awakens a passion within her, the chillies become aggravated and warn her against the dangers of abandoning her traditions. When she steps outside the store to explore the world of San Francisco and her blossoming desires for Doug, the spices are furious, they stop working as they should and all sense of order is lost. Tilo is torn between these conflicting desires and eventually submits herself to the burning chillies, asking the spices to decide her fate. By the end however, Tilo manages to find a balance, she holds to the backbone of her traditions and respect for her spices whilst also embracing her personal desires for love and human affection. She truly can have it all.
About The Production
From the team behind Bend It Like Beckham and Bride & Prejudice comes The Mistress of Spices. Three continents, a directorial debut, the Queen of Bollywood, a Hollywood star and a large sprinkling of magical spices all come together to create this mystical tale of identity, tradition and forbidden desire.
The Mistress of Spices began its life as a novel by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni back in 1997. When Director Paul Mayeda Berges and his writing partner Gurinder Chadha first read the novel they both instantly fell in love with the story and knew that it would translate beautifully to the big screen. They met with Chitra and began working on turning it into a screenplay. As Paul Mayeda Berges explains he saw within the novel a fresh twist on an age old theme: "Culturally it was all about the things we're interested in, the way people mix and how much smaller the world is these days and how you start a new life when you emigrate somewhere, but, it had this layer of magical realism which I hadn't seen done in a film like this before." Several years later, with the help of Producing partner Deepak Nayar, The Mistress of Spices was ready to go into production.
A cold February day in a small studio in the middle of the Isle of Man may not seem like the obvious choice of location for a film set in a sunny Californian spice shop. The Isle of Man Film commission, however, loved the script and put up a significant portion of the Film's budget. Aishwarya Rai and Dylan McDermott were in place as the leads, alongside a strong supporting cast including Nitin Ganatra (Bride & Prejudice, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), Adewele Akkinuoye-Agbaje (The Bourne Identity, Get Rich or Die Tryin) and Anupam Kher (Bend It Like Beckham, Bride & Prejudice and ER). And so, on the 14th February 2005, Tilo's Spice Bazaar opened for business and principal photography on The Mistress of Spices began in earnest.
The majority of the Film is set within the warm and secure environment of the shop where Tilo happily administers her spices in order to help her customers with their varying ailments and dilemmas. Production Designer Amanda McArthur had the daunting task of designing and constructing the spice shop from scratch. She didn't want the shop to have a uniform and sterile feel to it and instead crammed it full of a variety of spices, objects and fabrics that gave off a rich, sensual mix of colours and textures. Amanda McArthur explains her vision: " I wanted the Spice shop to have a timeless quality…we used dark woods for the shelves and table tops so as to create the feeling almost like a Caravaggio painting where all the backgrounds are black and then all the spices are the rich colours in the foreground."
After two weeks out on the Isle of man, the production moved to London to shoot in various locations around the capitol and thankfully the snow held off long enough to make London look believable as Oakland, California. The multicultural elements of the story were in fact reflected in the crew itself. Japanese/American first time director, Paul Berges, chose Indian cinematographer (and director in his own right), Santosh Sivan and his Indian camera crew, to "add a richness to the film's visual style and look". Mexican born editor, Alex Rodriguez, Antipodean production designer Amanda McArthur and American composer Craig Pruess, all worked to bring to life the ideas of identity and race that are so prevalent in the story. Indian born producer Deepak Nayar explains, "The crew, just like the Spices, complemented one another to create this magical film."
Although this was Paul Berges', directorial debut, he was more than familiar with life on set as he had worked closely with his writing partner and wife, Gurinder Chadha on films such as What's Cooking, Bend It Like Beckham and Bride & Prejudice. This time however, it was Gurinder who was taking more of a back seat in proceedings by filling the role of Consulting Director. Where Gurinder's films have blended traditional comedy drama with her unique ethnic influence, Paul has a developed a quieter sense of romantic, sensual storytelling. It was in fact on Gurinder's film Bride & Prejudice, that Paul first spotted the talents of Aishwarya Rai and knew that she would slip perfectly into the role of Tilo, the Mistress. This former Miss World, and Queen of Bollywood transformed her naturally glamorous look for the part. She simplified her hair and make-up, dressed in traditional Indian saris and brought a quiet, demure tone to the role. Choosing the part of Doug wasn't quite so simple, they met with countless actors from both sides of the Atlantic, but eventually settled on the all American Hollywood actor, Dylan McDermott. The chemistry on set between Dylan and Aishwarya was instant. They both had a calm, maturity to their acting skills and developed the love story of Doug and Tilo in a very controlled and sensitive manner. Aishwarya Rai describes how smooth their working relationship was: "From the very first scene we did together he was instantly Doug and I was instantly Tilo." Dylan McDermott goes on to say, "We work well together together, we have a good relationship and it's a little bit dangerous, which is always a good thing!"
By the middle of March, filming had moved to yet another location, this time Oakland California itself. A historic section of downtown Oakland was transformed and the Legogo Bargain store became Tilo's Spice Bazaar. Chinatown in San Francisco, the Japanese Tea Gardens and the Golden Gate Bridge all became settings for the blossoming love story. And as former head of the San Francisco International Asian American film festival, Director Paul Berges felt right at home in the beautiful Bay area. Not content with filming in two continents however, Paul Berges then lead his crew to their final destination, India. A small second unit travelled to Kerala in the south of India where 93-year-old veteran Indian actress Zohra Segal joined them for the role as First Mother. And so it was here in India that the last few days of filming took place. Surrounded by beautiful beaches, a tropical climate and lush vegetation Paul Berges and his crew filmed their final scenes. Moreover, it was rather fitting that the filming journey should end there in Kerala because hiding amongst that lush vegetation were the magical spices themselves happily growing in their natural habitat just waiting to be picked by their mistress.

Aishwarya Rai - Tilo
Aishwarya Rai is one of India's most famous and well-loved actresses. She first stepped into the limelight back in 1994 when she was crowned with the prestigious Miss World title. A successful modelling career quickly followed and it wasn't long until Bollywood's top directors were knocking at her door. Her film debut in Mani Ratnam's Iruvar (1997) received critical acclaim and her performance in Rahul Rawail's Aur Paar Ho Gaya earned her the Best Female Debutante Award.
It was 2002 when the rest of the cinematic world really started to take notice of Aishwarya. She stole the screen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas, Bollywood's most ambitious and successful film to date and she has been proclaimed 'the world's most beautiful woman'.
In 2003 Aishwarya became the first Indian actor to be a member of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival and was named the Brand Ambassador for L'Oreal Paris.
