日升日落,一年的時光匆匆而去。又到了歲末盤點的時刻,LT為您精選十部電影,在欣賞視覺盛筵的同時學好英語。
From the earth to the moon《從地球到月球》
2007年中國最舉世矚目的壯舉之一就是成功發射了首顆繞月探測衛星——嫦娥一號。在慶祝這一盛事的同時,讓我們來回顧一下人類登月的歷程、走近那些已屬于歷史的人物和傳奇。
經典對白:
That's one small step for (a) man, one giant leap for mankind.
The queen 《女王》
一個過氣王妃的死在過去十年的歷史中都可視作頭等大事。國際政要在她的葬禮致悼詞,幾乎整個世界都因為她的香消玉殞而慟哭,她的成長經歷和私生活一時成為社交話題并且至今仍不斷涌現新的細節,還有一首本來不屬于她的歌居然因為紀念她而整整一年高踞亞歐美各大音樂榜榜首……《女王》這部電影為您詳述英國皇室關于戴妃之死的前前后后。
經典對白:
Though her own life was often sadly touched by tragedy, she touched the lives of so many others in Britain and throughout the world with joy and with comfort. The people everywhere, not just here in Britain, everywhere, they kept faith with Princess Diana. They liked her. They loved her. They regarded her as one of the people. She was the people's princess and that's how she will... stay, how she will remain... in our hearts and in our memories... forever.
That's the way we do things in this country - quietly, with dignity. It's what the rest of the world has always admired us for.
The devil wears Prada 《時尚女魔頭》
浮華背后充滿無奈。很多職場新人都期望著老板能像學校里的老師或者爸爸媽媽那樣,能夠給與獎勵,寬容錯誤。可惜這里不是可以隨便撒嬌的家,只有理解你的工作,認同你的工作,努力工作,才能做好工作、得到承認。當然也不要為了工作而忽略一切:它畢竟只是一部分,親情、友情、愛情……加在一起才能組成一個豐富的人生。
經典對白:
You are not trying. You are whining.
And what they did, what they created was greater than art because you live your life in it. Well, not you, obviously, but some people. You think this is just a magazine, hmm? This is not just a magazine. This is a shining beacon of hope...
That's what happens when you start doing well at work, darling. Let me know when your whole life goes up in smoke. That means it's time for a promotion.
That's your answer for everything lately, "I didn't have a choice." Like this job was forced on you. Like you don't make these decisions yourself.
Prison break《越獄》
冤案、監獄、地圖文身、形形色色的重刑犯、挖地道逃獄,緊湊的劇情,強烈渲染的氣氛,層出不窮的矛盾和懸念……組成了這部風靡美國、也風靡中國的電視劇。哦對了,還有最重要的一點,主角可是帥得不能再帥的型男鐵漢。
經典對白:
There are three things for certain in life---death, taxes and count.
The sooner you face facts, the better off we will all be. You're yesterday's news, John.
Sex and the city 《欲望城市》
四個單身女人,事業成功,時髦漂亮,雖已年輕不再卻依然自信魅力十足。在紐約這個茫茫大都市里她們工作、生活、尋愛,現身說法探討著男女關系這個困擾人類的永恒主題。
經典對白:
Why are there so many great unmarried women and no great unmarried men?
Most men are threatened by successful women. If you want to get these guys, you have to keep your mouth shut and play by the rules.
Maybe all men are a drug. Sometimes they bring you down and sometimes, like now, they get you so high.
In a city of great expectations, is it time to settle for what you can get?
There's a moment in every relationship where romance gives way to reality.
Practically all the relationships I know are based on a foundation of lies and mutually except delusion.
Little miss sunshine 《陽光小美女》
這部電影和其他勵志片最大的區別就是,它沒有給堅信追尋的過程賦予一個美好的ending。苦難成就人生,也唯有苦難,才會留給我們最有回味的回憶。人生中充滿著機會,不過也許挫折會更多。有時候,只要自己用力推自己一把,便又繼續上路了。而在路上總勝于原地踏步。
經典對白:
Luck is the name losers give to their own failings. It's about wanting to win, willing yourself to win.
Sarcasm is losers trying to bring winners down to their level and that's step four in the program.
A real loser is somebody that's so afraid of not winning, they don't even try.
Million dollar baby 《百萬美元寶貝》
也許這世界上沒有一件事情是簡單透明的,理想也如此。麥琪和弗蘭基的理想比現實要沉重的多。因為過于沉迷理想和信仰,他們被壓垮了。那些執迷信仰的人請記住羅素這句話:我絕不會為了信仰而獻身,因為信仰可能是錯的。
經典對白:
Boxing is about respect - getting it for yourself and taking it away from the other guy.
Frankie liked to say that boxing is an unnatural act, that everything in boxing is backwards. Sometimes best way to deliver a punch is step back.
It’s the rule - always protect yourself.
The princess diaries《公主日記》
很多女孩子都做過變成公主的夢。只是家家都有一本難念的經,公主也不是那么好當的。看看這位新晉公主的日記你就會明白:只有不斷努力進步才是硬道理。
經典對白:
Courage is not the absence of fear but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all.
Fast food nation 《快餐帝國》
忙碌的生活節奏使得快餐成為我們經常的飲食選擇。然而快餐對健康的負面影響卻是非常嚴重。這部電影為您揭露快餐工業的種種黑幕,相信您看過后會對健康的生活方式做出更明智的選擇。
經典對白:
Don't just hope. You can't sit back and hope. You have to do something. In a town like this, hope will kill you.
A walk in the clouds《云中漫步》
任何一個處在困境中的女孩聽到"There's me."這句話,都會感動得一塌糊涂。一部浪漫、唯美、純情的電影,讓我們一起來在云中散個步。
經典對白:
Miss Aragon.Victoria. There's me.
