號(hào )稱是美國七(??)十年代最非著名的一部科幻電影杰作，導(dǎo)演索爾·巴斯是設(shè)計師，還曾兩次獲過奧(??)斯卡獎，但不知(zhī )為何這部經(jīng)(?)典的心理科幻片至今都沒(méi )出DVD?！　esert ants suddenly form a collective intelligence and begin to wage war on the desert inhabitants. It is up to two scientists and a stray girl they rescue from the ants to destroy them. But the ants have other ideas.　　Phase IV is an incredible full length feature film by Saul Bass who is most acclaimed as a graphic designer who's work can be seen as the opening credits from The Seven Year Itch, Vertigo, West Side Story to Alien, Broadcast News and Casino. Phase IV is a much overlooked film that is very much in the style of The Andromeda Strain. What it perhaps lacks in story, it gains in the photography of the millions of ants.　　索(??)爾·巴(??)斯，美國動畫片繪制家、美工師、導(dǎo)演，1920年5月8日生于紐約市(shì )，少年時曾經(jīng)在布(bù )魯克林學(xué)院學(xué)習繪畫，畢業(yè)后從事過十年自由職業(yè)設(shè)計師的職業(yè)，1946年在(zài )洛杉磯創(chuàng)立索爾·巴斯合作公(gōng )司。他在(zài )為一些影片進行美術(shù)設(shè)(??)計時，猜出心裁地為片頭片尾的演(??)職(??)人員(yuán )表配上(??)生(shēng )動活潑的動畫(??)人物，這些動畫人物的形態(tài)動作巧妙地提示(shì )了影片的主題(tí )(?)，反映了影片的基調(diào)，從而使單(??)調(diào)乏(fá )味的演職人員表和諧地成為了影片不(?)可(??)或缺的一部分，這種大膽(dǎn )的創(chuàng)新豐富了電影的表現(xiàn)形(xíng )式，廣(??)受觀眾們的喜(??)愛，其后為不少國家的(??)影片所沿用。索爾·巴斯設(shè)計片頭片尾的影片以《卡門·瓊斯》(1955)、(??)《紅衣主教》(1963)等片最為著名。此外，他還監(jiān)制(zhì )和導(dǎo)演了很多電視廣(guǎng )告(gào )片、動畫片片和紀錄片，如《敏銳的眼光》(1963)、《第四相》(1974)等?！?/div>
