Ballade vir ‘n Enkeling- Die Film

Plakkaat (poster)




Die plakkaat (poster) verklap (reveals) reeds (already) heelwat (a
lot of) belangrike (important) inligting (information) aan die kyker
(viewer):
Die geboue (buildings) op die agtergrond (background) wys
(shows) dat die rolprent (movie) in Johannesburg verfilm
(filmed) is.

Die tikmasjien (typewriter) is in die middel van die lessenaar
(desk), in die middel van die plakkaat (poster), reg bo
(above) die titel, wat vir die kyker wys (shows) dat dit ‘n
belangrike (important) rol (role) in die film gaan speel.
Dit is dan hierdie einste (this very) tikmasjien (typewriter)
waarmee (with which) Jacques Rynhard, die hoofkarakter, sy
kortverhale geskryf het en wat hom later gehelp het om
bekendheid (becoming well known) sowel as (as well as)

, roem (fame) te verwerf (gain), wat hom op die “voorgrond
(foreground)” in die litêrere wêreld plaas.
Die tikmasjien (typewriter) neem (takes) die kyker terug
(back) na die verlede (past), voordat (before)
skootrekenaars (laptops) gebruik is en Jacques gebruik die
tikmasjien selfs (even) in die moderne era waar nuwe
tegnologie tot sy beskikking (available to him) is omdat dit
soveel (so much) sentimentele waarde (value) vir hom het
met dié dat dit ‘n geskenk (present) van Lena en Jan-Paul
was.

Treine speel (plays) ‘n belangrike (important) rol in die film.
Jacques en sy familie het in ‘n ou spoorweghuis (old railway
house) gewoon (lived).
Jacques se pa, Klaus Rynhard, was ‘n treindrywer (train
driver).
Die trein aan die linkerkant (lefthand side) is die trein
waarmee (with which) Jacques na (to) die verbeteringskool
(reform school) gereis (traveled) het nadat (after) hy skuldig
(guilty) bevind is aan moord (murder) op sy pa.
Die jong Lena en Jacques probeer (tries) mekaar (each
other) dan ook vir ‘n laaste keer (time) omhels
(embrace/hug) voordat (before) Jacques na die
verbeteringskool moet gaan: die trein is in hierdie geval (in
this case) besig om te vertrek (leave).
Aan die regterkant (righthand side) van die plakkaat sien
mens die voorkant (front) van ‘n trein: dit mag (may) dalk
(possibly) Jacques se terugkoms (return) simboliseer.
Aan die regterkant (righthand side) van die plakkaat sien
mens ook die jong Jacques en Jan-Paul wat uitgelate
(happily) met hul fietse (bicycles) op die treinspoor (train
tracks) ry: dit was simbolies van beter en gelukkiger tye in
albei (both) seuns se lewens.
 Interessant, egter (however), om te merk (to notice) dat
hierdie beeld (image) van die seuns met die ouer Lena se

, skouer (shoulder) verbind (linked) is; dus (therefore) is Lena
steeds (still) “teenwoordig (present)” selfs (even) wanneer die
seuns alleen pret (fun) het – al drie die karakters was die
heeltyd (whole time) op een of ander (other) manier (way)
aan mekaar verbind en hul leuse (motto), “Vriende vir altyd”,
word gereeld (often) gehoor in die film.
 Die feit (fact) dat Jacques en Lena in ‘n omhelsing
(embrace) staan, is ook ‘n indirekte aanduiding (reference)
van die genre van die film, naamlik (namely) ‘n
liefdes/romantiese- (romantic) en speurfilm
(detective/mystery film.

Let ook op (also notice) na die gebruik (use) van die kleur
groen op die treinspoor (train tracks): dit dui (refers) moontlik
(possibly) op die karakters se jeugdigheid (youth) en ‘n meer
sorgvrye (care free) tyd in hul lewens.
Daar is dan ook (also) ‘n modeltrein te sien op die lessenaar
(desk) wat weereens die belangrikheid (importance) van
treine ondersteun (support). Treine as simbool word ook later
in diepte (in depth) bespreek (discussed).
Die stoom (steam) van die treine skep (create) ‘n atmosfeer
van misterie (mystery) en kan ook aansluit (links to) by die
idee dat daar baie geheime (secrets) is wat die karakters
met hul saamdra (carry).

Ironie en verraad (betrayal) word ook subtiel (subtly) op die
plakkaat uitgebeeld (portrayed).
Jacques en Lena staan in ‘n omhelsing (embrace).
Jan-Paul staan agter (behind) hulle en dit mag (may)
voorkom (appear) asof (as if) hy ‘n minder belangrike rol
speel, maar dit is nie die hele (whole) waarheid (truth) nie,
want Lena en Jan-Paul het ook ‘n verhouding (relationship).
Jan-Paul wat dus in die “agtergrond” skuil (hide), mag die
geheime (secret) gevoelens (feelings) wat hy en Lena vir
mekaar (each other) koester (harbor), voorstel (represent),
sowel as (as well as) die feit (fact) dat hy gewoonlik (usually)
PROPERTY OF M SOUNES NO COPYING, SHARING OR DISTRIBUTION OF ANY KIND

, beskou (seen) was as die “derde (third) wiel (wheel) aan die
wa (wagon).”
Jan-Paul “skuil (hides)” in die skaduwees (shadows), soos die
aand voor Jacques gevonnis (sentenced) sou word (would
be sentenced), waar hy wegkruip (hides) in die donker
(dark) langs (next to) Jacques se kamervenster omdat hy te
lafhartig (cowardly) was om die waarheid (truth) te vertel
van wat werklik (really) die dag met die skietongeluk
(shooting accident) gebeur (happened) het.

Carina Human, die joernalis/verslaggewer (journalist), is
die een wat regtig aan Jacques se kant (side) is en die
waarheid (truth) oor hom wil (wants to) vertel.
Carina is dan ook die enigste (only) karakter wat reguit
(straight) na die kamera kyk: dit suggereer (suggests) dat
sy niks (nothing) het om weg te steek (hide) nie en sluit
aan (relates to) by die feit (fact) dat sy op soek is (in
search is of) na die waarheid (truth).

 Die skrif (writing) van die titel vang (catches) dadelik
(immediately) die kyker (viewer) se oog.
 Ballade is geskryf met wat as sierskrif (ornamental writing)
beskryf (described) kan word. Dit mag dalk wees as
gevolg van (due to) die feit (fact) dat hierdie ‘n liefdes-
en speurverhaal (love and mystery) is.

Die woorde vir ‘n Enkeling lyk (seems/looks) asof dit
getik (typed) is met ‘n tikmasjien, wat dan weer
verband hou (linked to) met die feit dat die tikmasjien
(typewriter) so belangrike (important) simbool vir
Jacques is.
