一个从事电影事业40多年的人,出于对电影的热爱而爱屋及乌,痴迷于电影藏品的收藏,日积月累,至今藏品甚丰,且屡次获奖。这个电影类藏品收藏者,就是昔日供职于浙江省电影公司的张理竺。他的收藏涉及电影邮品、电影节、电影颁奖活动、电影剧组活动、电影奖章、纪念章、导演、演员照片、签名等几个大类。
一些收藏家都用“弥足珍贵”来形容张理竺的电影邮集。他的电影邮集展示了“电影发明”、“电影样式”、“电影名人”、“电影交流”、“电影诞生纪念”等大量邮票(品),记录了世界电影及中国电影的发展成就,聚集了众多名彪青史的电影泰斗和光彩照人的电影明星,描绘了100多年来电影发展的宏伟壮丽的历史画卷。
张理竺的电影邮集中,收入了电影发明人法国路易·卢米埃尔兄弟形象的邮票以及兄弟俩拍摄和放映世界首批电影《火车到站》的邮票,收入了电影诞生50周年时美国于1944年发行的第一枚电影邮票《士兵看电影》等,这些穿越时间长河而保存至今的邮票,是电影发展的见证,是十分珍贵的藏品。这枚邮票珍品是张理竺于10多年前在集邮市场发现的,他以很高代价买回家珍藏,如同得了宝贝似的。他的电影邮票收藏,称得上是部被浓缩了的电影发展史:从无声电影到有声电影、从中国电影的诞生到各种电影纪念活动,从美、法、英、俄、西班牙到日本的电影发展状况,都凝结在那部电影邮集中。他在邮集中收藏的一些影坛明星的邮票,如现代电影创始者法国人乔治·梅里爱、著名表演艺术家查理·卓别林、影星玛丽莲·梦露、秀兰·邓波儿、奥黛丽·赫本等,一个个都在邮集中灼灼生光。
张理竺收集这些珍贵邮票十分不易,用尽了苦心:他写信给中国电影家协会,请求朋友们千方百计帮忙搜集,结果朋友回信,将美国发行的《乱世佳人》四张电影邮票无偿赠送给他;一次他去省集邮协会参加活动,主动向集邮家林衡夫说了自己的集邮情况,林衡夫被他的痴迷和执著所感动,将自己珍藏的美国电影学会成立75周年的纪念邮票赠送给他,说:“这是美国朋友寄给我的,你搞电影邮票收藏,那就送给你珍藏吧。”
不惜重金四处收集邮品,并订了多份邮报邮刊,以多方获得集邮信息,使张理竺完整地收集了第一届电影金鸡百花奖及其他电影节的纪念封;当2005年中国电影百年诞生纪念活动来临时,张理竺又给北京及各省的电影家协会写信,请求帮助购买纪念封。不久,北京及不少省份的电影百年纪念封都被张理竺收集到了,大大地丰富了他的邮集。
苦心耕坛终于有了好收成,张理竺的《银幕邮缘》在省集邮协会获了奖,他个人也被评为集邮先进个人。
与电影艺术家、明星相处的照片和签名,那种浓浓的友情、举手投足间的一颦一笑,充满了温馨。不经意间的签名,或工工整整,或龙飞凤舞,或飘逸潇洒,或夸张怪诞,都是各自个性的张扬,充满盎然情趣。张理竺刻意收集的电影名人签名,或签在电影活动纪念封上,或签在纪念明信片上,也有签在笔记本上的,签字时的生动细节往往增添异样的艺术魅力,留给人们无穷的玩味。这一切都是历史的痕迹,瞬间的记忆,令人津津回味。这些细节也许在电影史著作中找不到,在大型画册里也难以寻觅,但都是名人的手笔,生活的本真。张理竺请电影名家签名始于1985年1月25日,他在深圳参加深圳影业公司成立大会,连影坛耆宿夏衍也来了。在宴会前,他看见夏衍在服务员的搀扶下入座,便拿出准备好的本子和签字笔走了过去,轻声说:“尊敬的夏公,我想请您给我签个名。”夏衍接过笔,随手签下自己的大名。这一镜头,张理竺请人及时地拍了下来。有了成功的第一次,就一发不可收,以后他抓住一切机会请电影艺术家和明星签名,有时还托别人帮助获得签名。1987年12月3日,有关电影工作的一个全国会议在北京召开,他作为电影发行的先进代表参加了这次会议。大会结束时,当时担任广电部副部长的陈昊苏从主席台下来,张理竺拿着笔记本请陈昊苏题词。陈昊苏略加考索,就在笔记本上写道:“利用电影宣传国家进步的大好形势,使全体人民得到高尚的精神文化享受。”1991年10月14日,“谢晋电影回顾展”在杭州举行,在开幕式后,他在休息室里对谢晋说:“谢导,我是看您的电影走过来的,请您给我题个词吧。”谢晋抬起头想了一会,欣然命笔:“感谢家乡人民对我的关怀和鼓励,题赠张理竺同志留念。”为张理竺签名留念的名家多不胜数,有白杨、孙道临、张瑞芳、秦怡、巩俐、姜文、张艺谋、葛优、章子怡、周迅、潘虹、夏梦、陈思思、张国荣、刘德华等。有些明星张理竺无法接触,就请人代劳。例如日本著名电影表演艺术家高仓健,在我国发行放映过的日本故事片《追捕》,他在影片中扮演一个叫杜丘的检察官,凛然正气的形象给人印象极深。高仓健是应邀前来参加谢晋从影50年活动的,正当他推着宋之光的轮椅走出来时,当时浙江省电影家协会秘书长受张理竺之托请高仓健签名,高仓健停下轮椅,用汉字签下了自己的名字,笔迹苍劲有力,显示出浓厚的书法功底,也使人从签名联想字如其人的硬汉形象。张理竺保存的海外影星的签名还有法国的雅克·贝汉,印度的塔里克努尔·艾勒·谢里夫等。
张理竺的电影藏品除自己收集、购买、友人馈赠之外,还有一些是自己亲身经历获得的。其中一张最珍贵的照片,是1957年4月在北京召开的全国电影发行放映先进工作者代表大会,当时他作为代表参加了这一盛会,受到毛泽东、周恩来、朱德、邓小平等党和国家领导人接见,并合影留念。这张照片令他刻骨铭心。他经常瞅着这张合影感叹:“当时我刚在部队从事电影发行工作,还是个青年小伙子啊!”
收藏是一种高尚的文化娱乐活动,张理竺不仅从电影收藏获得快乐,而且常常把电影藏品拿出去展览,到收藏品市场展示,让影迷分享,让更多人认知电影历史,了解电影成就。
The Silver World in Stamp Collections
By Zhao Zheng, our staff reporter
Many people take Zhang Lizhu and his movie-related stamp collections for granted, since he has been working as a professional in the field of movies for more than four decades. However, his stamps demonstrate more than his dedication to his work. It testifies to his passion for and dedication to the cinematic art, technology and people who have combined to create legends on the silver screen.
The collectors who have seen Zhang’s stamps describe the collection as precious and valuable. His encyclopedic stamps are neatly categorized under meaningful titles about the cinematic history: inventions, genres, celebrities, exchanges and celebrations.
Zhang’s collection serves virtually as a text book for motion picture history: stamps showing the French brothers Lumiere who produced and screened the world’s first film, stamps that indicate how motion pictures evolved from silence to sound, stamps that tell stories about China’s first motion pictures, stamps that celebrate motion pictures in various countries, stamps that relate histories of motion pictures in various countries, and stamps of stars such as Charlie Chaplin, Marilyn Monroe, Shirley Temple and Audrey Hepburn.
Many stamps in Zhang’s collection came into his hands through chances, search, and his network of old-boy relations. His collection features a stamp issued in USA in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the invention of motion picture. Zhang spotted it in a stamps market more than 10 years ago. It cost him quite a fortune, but he believes it is a worthwhile purchase. In order to find stamps for his theme collection, he once wrote to China Film Association for help, asking them to send him information or stamps. His friends there acted. A friend sent him a set of four American stamps issued in memory of Gone with the Wind. It was a generous gift. Encouraged by the positive responses, Zhang now writes frequently to the association and its branches across the country for stamps on important occasions and events. Before events were to be held in 2006 in celebration of the 100th anniversary of motion picture invention, he sent letters across the country to his network and received many stamps issued in Beijing and many provinces on the occasion.
Zhang subscribes to philately newsletters for information. And he pays good money to buy stamps that belong to his theme collection. And he takes active part in philately activities to know other collectors. One day, Zhang chatted with a collector at a gathering of collectors. Touched by Zhang’s passion, the collector gave Zhang a stamp from his own collection. The special stamp was issued in celebration of the 75th anniversary of the American Film Institute.
In Zhang’s motion picture collection, there are a lot of signatures of celebrities in the motion picture industry and history. Probably the most precious of all the items in the collection is a photograph taken in Beijing in April 1957 when Zhang, as a model worker of the Zhejiang film industry, was attending a national representative assembly in Beijing. In the picture were state and party leaders such as Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Zhu De, and Deng Xiaoping.
Zhang Lizhu has been awarded as an excellent collector of Zhejiang Province. His stamps often appear in exhibitions.
