7 So Long at the Fair

Прощание на Выставке

   1950 – Великобритания (86 мин)

     Произв. Gainsborough, Sydney Box Production (Бетти Э. Бокс)

     Реж. ТЕРЕНС ФИШЕР

     Сцен. Хью Миллз, Энтони Торн

     Опер. Реджиналд Уайер

     Муз. Бенджамин Фрэнкел

     В ролях Джин Симмонз (Вики Бартон), Дёрк Богард (Джордж Хэтауэй), Дэйвид Томлинсон (Джонни Бартон), Марсель Понсен (Нарсисс), Кэтлин Несбитт (мадам Эрве), Онор Блэкмен (Рода О'Донован), Бетти Уоррен (мадам О'Донован), Феликс Эйлмер (британский консул), Андре Морелл (доктор Харт).

   Молодая англичанка Вики Бартон и ее брат Джордж приезжают в Париж на Всемирную выставку 1889 г. На следующий день после приезда в гостиницу брат исчезает. Хозяин и персонал гостиницы делают вид, будто девушка приехала одна, и добавляют, что комнаты 19, якобы занятой ее братом, вовсе не существует. В растерянности девушка отправляется к британскому консулу. Тот внимательно ее выслушивает, но затем говорит, что она должна предоставить доказательства. Он отводит ее на Выставку: там она надеется встретить горничную, которая видела ее брата. Жених горничной устраивает катание на воздушных шарах. Вики замечает девушку, когда воздушный шар уже взмывает в воздух. Через несколько мгновений на шаре вспыхивает пожар, и он падает на землю.

   Вики кажется, что над ней тяготеет проклятие; и все-таки она обращается в полицию, и в гостиницу приходят следователи. Хозяйка утверждает, что юная англичанка лишь выдумывает отговорки, чтобы не платить за проживание. Действительно, все деньги были у ее брата. По счастью, Вики находит под своей дверью записку от молодого художника, взявшего у Джона Бартона взаймы несколько франков на фиакр. Разыграв свой отъезд в Лондон, Вики находит художника и рассказывает ему свою историю. Художник снимает номер в гостинице и находит в сейфе драгоценность, принадлежавшую Джону. Продолжив поиски, он убеждается в существовании пресловутой комнаты 19, которая теперь замурована. Консул допрашивает хозяйку гостиницы, и та наконец признается: в ночь исчезновения Джон Бартон заболел, и его тайно вывезли из гостиницы в больницу некоего религиозного ордена. Вики и художник немедленно едут туда и узнают страшную правду: Джон болен чумой; он, безусловно, подхватил ее в Неаполе или Марселе. Чтобы избежать всеобщей паники и финансового краха Выставки, власти предпочли скрыть факт болезни Бартона, а для этого – стереть с лица земли все следы его существования. Вики с облегчением узнает, что у ее брата есть небольшой шанс на выздоровление.

   ► Было бы совершенно естественно, если бы этот необычный сюжет лег в основу триллера или сочного фантастического повествования в духе Вэла Льютона. Теренс Фишер предпочел выдвинуть на 1-й план аспект «исторической реконструкции». Он придал фильму старомодный темп и тщательность ретро еще до появления этого жанра. Довольно оригинальное решение, ничуть не ослабляющее – и даже наоборот, усиливающее – тревогу и беспокойство сюжета; обаяние совсем юной Джин Симмонз в роли терзаемой жертвы вносит в фильм дополнительную хрупкую ноту чувственности и садизма. Таким образом, для Фишера Прощание на Выставке представляет собой первый набросок фантастического повествования. Хотя фильм относится к малоизвестному периоду творчества режиссера, им никак нельзя пренебречь. Можно даже предположить, что Прощание на Выставке превосходит поздние картины Фишера, поскольку в нем содержится более сильная доза «тревожной необычности».

   N.В. Тема угрозы эпидемии как ключа к детективной загадке (корни этой темы, похоже, кроются в событиях, произошедших на Всемирной выставке в Чикаго в 1893 г.) была использована в одной новелле фильма Необыкновенные истории Рихарда Освальда, Umheimliche Geschichten, 1919, а также в картинах Полночное предупреждение, The Midnight Warning, Спенсер Гордон Беннетт, 1932, и Спрятанные следы, Verwehte Spuren, Файт Харлан, 1938. В несколько ином контексте тема также заявлена в фильме Бульдог Драммонд наносит ответный удар, Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back, Рой Дел Рут, 1934. 5-й эпизод телесериала «Алфред Хичкок представляет» И след простыл, Into Thin Air (другой вариант названия – Исчезающая дама, The Vanishing Lady, Дон Медфорд, 1955) является достаточно точным 26-мин ремейком фильма Теренса Фишера, хотя Хичкок, представляя эту серию, говорит (совершенно несправедливо), что этот сюжет был использован им самим в Дама исчезает, The Lady Vanishes. Роль, исполненную в оригинале Джин Симмонз, сыграла дочь режиссера Пэт Хичкок.
