金馬影展對台灣藝術電影影迷而言，就像是場神聖的盛宴，在這場儀式中，透過群體的力量，讓信念的力量益發強大。本研究嘗試依循「朝聖」（pilgrimage）的角度，將金馬影展的觀影者，視為一種信仰著藝術電影教派（cult）的信徒，他們的身份不只是閱聽人或消費者，而是一種參與者（participants）。 本研究分為三階段進行。第一階段針對金馬影展三十年來（1980～2009）的影片清單進行歷史性檔案研究，歸納出金馬影展播映影片的脈絡。第二階段對影展觀眾進行問卷調查與參與觀察，以期歸納出金馬影迷的外在觀影行為，並透過田野調查實際了解金馬影迷的參與過程。第三階段則是對影迷進行深度訪談與生命史訪談。在影展現場找尋了78位金馬影迷進行訪談，另針對3位具代表性的影迷，分別透過他們參與金馬影展的經歷，來進一步認識歷年金馬影迷參與的過程。 本研究發現金馬影展的儀式概念（The Cult of Film Festival）主要來自於三者：在時間性而言，因一年一度有如逢年過節的「週期性」而營造了儀式感；在空間性而言，因影片與影迷的「齊聚性」而營造了儀式感；除了這兩者之外，要達到類宗教的景仰標準，勢必還要有「神聖性」的概念，其神聖感則是來自於電影大師的作品，所帶來的崇拜心態。 至於影迷的朝聖歷程，本研究以三位影迷的生命史作為引述，介紹20、30、40歲各個世代的影迷，究竟是什麼樣的樣貌。而後根據大量深度訪談、田野觀察與問卷調查的結果，搭配儀式結構的模式，描繪出金馬影迷單次旅程與生涯歷程。在單次旅程的部份，可以分作「前影展時期」、「影展時期」與「後影展時期」，三者中尤以前影展時期的套票搶購與排隊劃位最具儀式性特質。在生涯歷程的部份，亦可分作「前影迷階段」、「影迷階段」與「後影迷階段」，此三者之間主要差異，是以對電影的重視、迷戀與可犧牲程度作為劃分標準。 / For art cinema fans of Taiwan, Golden Horse Film Festival just like a sacred Feast, fans gathered together every year, that increasingly the forces of faith in the ritual.
