电影美的呈现是颇令人惊诧的,《美女与野兽》作为一部享誉世界的经典童话,时隔近七十年的返璞归真,再次被法兰西这个曾创作它的国度搬上银幕,法式电影的浪漫格调与宛若油画般的镜头质感,营造了这奇幻曼妙的光影之梦,这是一场献予大人的法式童话。
谈起《美女与野兽》最为人家喻户晓的当是迪士尼于1991年制作的动画电影,但这并不是这个童话故事第一次被搬上银幕,早在1946年法国便早已然拍摄了同名真人电影,而这次的在度翻拍,技术层面上已然不可同日而语,追求电影镜头的精致,使这个法国著作能完美无瑕的得以还原于银幕,俨然成为了其首要因素,这也是选用曾在《寂静岭》《狼族盟约》中担任导演,见长于场景画面渲染法国导演克里斯多夫·甘斯的原因,就电影成片来看,画面的美感确实达到了令许多好莱坞大片都望其项背的高度,这种独具匠心美的呈现不仅是源于特效的营造,电影中华丽的礼服、夺目的背景、还是那深谙欧式风情精雕细琢的古堡城镇,这独到的美感更在于那法国文化呼之欲出深厚的人文底蕴。
画面的致美却未能在剧情上得见经典是新版的《美女与野兽》颇为人遗憾之处,作为一部翻拍著名童话的电影,剧情创新或能让观众眼前一亮,但因有其度的把控,顾此失彼以削弱电影人物情感主线为代价,来打造一支新的前世今生的故事辅线,使得电影“美女与野兽”这个核心命题却在新版中显得异常薄弱,爱与被爱的情感渲染因前篇缺乏积淀,本因是最为真挚感人的这人兽情缘在最后的结合却给人以莫名的牵强突兀,谱写了新的故事,却未能抓住原著经典真正的精髓,这不仅是《美女与野兽》,亦是许多翻拍经名著却未能获得称赞的症结。
对新版《美女与野兽》法式童话的评价并非单纯的褒义,电影虽有其独到的`法式浪漫,但剧情的欠缺使这部电影终只是部中肯的童话,却未能成为一部胜于蓝的佳作。
The Role of Mobile Phone in People's Communication
The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.
There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with people's real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.
In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.
1。 头绪分明,脉络清楚
写好记叙文,首先要头绪分明,脉络清楚,明确文章要求写什么。要对所写的事件或人物进行分析,弄清事件发生、发展一直到结束的整个过程,然后再收集选取素材。这些素材都应该跟上述五个“ W ”和一个“ H ”有关。尽管不是每篇记叙文里都必须包括这些“ W ”和“ H ”,但动笔之前,围绕五个“ W ”和“ H ”进行构思是必不可少的。
2。 突出中心,详略得当
在文章的框架确定后,对支持故事的素材的选取是很关键的。选材要注意取舍,应该从表现文章主题的需要出发,分清主次,定好详略。要突出重点,详写细述那些能表现文章主题的重要情节,略写粗述那么非关键的次要情节。面面俱到反而使情节罗列化,使人不得要领。这一点是写好记叙文要解决的一个基本问题,也需要一定的技巧。如:
One night a man came to our house and told me, "There is a family with eight children。 They have not eaten for days。" I took some food with me and went。
When I finally came to that family, I saw the faces of those little children disfigured (破坏外貌) by hunger。 There was no sorrow or sadness in their faces, just the deep pain of hunger。
I gave the rice to the mother。 She divided the rice in two, and went out, carrying half the rice。 When she came back, I asked her, "Where did you go?" she gave me this simple answer, "To my neighbors — they are hungry also!"
3。 用活语言,准确生动
记叙文要用具体的事件和生动的语言对人、事、物加以叙述。一篇好的记叙文的语言既要准确、生动,又要表现力强,这样才能把人、事描写得具体生动,其可读性才强。试比较下面一篇例文修改的前后效果。
原文:
One day Xiaoqiang was wandering away。 He was soon lost among people and traffic。 He could not find the way back home and started crying。 Just then, two young students who were passing by found him standing alone in front of a shop and crying。 They went up to Xiaoqiang and asked him what had happened。 Xiaoqiang told them how he got lost and where he lived。 The two students decided to take him home。 Mother was pleased to see Xiaoqiang come back safe and sound。 She invited the two students into the house and gave them some money, but they didn't take it。 She served them with tea but they left。
修改后:
The other day, five-year-old Xiaoqiang left home alone and wandered happily in the street。 After some time, he felt hungry so he wanted to go back home。 But he found he was lost among the crowded people and heavy traffic。 When he could not find the way home, he started and crying。 Just then, two young students who were passing by from school found him sanding crying in front of a shop。 They immediately went up to him。
"Little boy, why are you standing here crying?" they asked。
"I want Mom, I go home。" said the boy, still crying。
"Don't worry, we'll send you home。"
And they spent the next two hours looking for the boy's house。 With the help of a policeman, they finally found it。
When the worried mother saw her son come back safe and sound, she was so thankful and she invited the students into her house。 Gratefully, she offered them some money, saying it was a way to express her thanks, but the young students firmly refused it and left without even a cup of tea。
1。 叙述的人称
英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻的经历。它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过“我”来传达给读者,使人到真实可信,如身临其境。如:
The other day, I was driving along the street。 Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast。 I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side。 But it was too late。 The car hit my bike and I fell off it。
用第三人称叙述,优点在于叙述者不受“我”活动范围以内的人和事物的限制,而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者,直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前,文章的客观性很强。如:
Little Tom was going to school with an umbrella, for it was raining hard。 On the way, he saw an old woman walking in the rain with nothing to cover。 Tom went up to the old woman and wanted to share the umbrella with her, but he was too short。 What could he do? Then he had a good idea。
2。 动词的时态
在记叙文中,记和叙都离不开动词。所以动词出现率最高,且富于变化。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的',这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化,正是这一点才使得所记、所叙有鲜活的动态感、鲜明的层次感和立体感。
3。 叙述的顺序
记叙一件事要有一定的顺序。无论是顺叙、倒叙、插叙还是补叙,都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。顺叙最容易操作,较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙,读起来平淡乏味。倒叙、插叙、补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果,让所叙之事跌宕起伏,使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃,从而为文章所吸引,深入其中。但这些方法如果使用不当,则容易弄巧成拙,使文章结构散乱,头绪不清,让读者不知所云。
4。 叙述的过渡
过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用。过渡往往用在地点转移或时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如:
In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things。 Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao。 It is really a beautiful city。 There are many places of interest to see。 But what impressed me most was the sunrise。
The next morning I got up early。 I was very happy because it was a fine day。 By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red。 In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing。 The sun was very red, not shining。 It rose slowly。 At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball。 At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright。
What a moving and unforgettable scene!
5。 叙述与对话
引用故事情节中主要人物的对话是记叙文提高表现力的一种好方法。适当地用直接引语代替间接的主观叙述,可以客观生动地反映人物的性格、品质和心理状态,使记叙生动、有趣,使文章内容更加充实、具体。试比较下面两段的叙述效果:
I was in the kitchen, and I was cooking something。 Suddenly I heard a loud noise from the front。 I thought maybe someone was knocking the door。 I asked who it was but I heard no reply。 After a while I saw my cat running across the parlor。 I realized it was the cat。 I felt released。
这本来应是一段故事性很强的文字,但经作者这么一写,就不那么吸引人了。原因是文中用的都是叙述模式,没有人物语言,把“悬念”给冲淡了。可作如下调整:
I was in the kitchen cooking something。 "Crash!" a loud noise came from the front。 Thinking someone was knocking at the door, I asked, "Who?" No reply。 After a while, I saw my cat running across the parlor。 "It's you。" I said, quite released。
今晚再看一遍《美女也野兽》,忽然从其中看出与基耶斯洛夫斯基的《白》有几分类似的主题——平等:如果粗鲁的王子不曾因没有爱心而被惩罚,变成野兽,那么,他可能爱上贝尔么?他们可能在一起吗?
粗鲁的王子,即使他从来不懂得善待他人,也不懂爱为何物,他仍旧有骄傲的理由——他是一个华贵显赫的王子。
可是温柔的野兽,即使他再绅士,心中充满爱,他仍然有自卑的理由——他是一只外表丑陋的野兽。
而与此相对,贝尔的身份是不变的——一个美丽善良怀抱梦想的贫家女。
然而我们可以大胆假设一点,如果王子不曾被施魔法,那么,即使贝尔再美丽再善良,王子未必会爱上她——因为我们的前提是粗鲁的王子根本不懂得什么是爱。
但是在他身份垂直下降,直到变为一只面目狰狞的怪兽的时候,他却能够以一种低姿态,甚至自卑的姿势,来欣赏一个过去可能连见他的面也不配的贫家女——而此时她正是他的救世主。
基氏电影《白》也是如此。在电影的开头,由于生理障碍,世俗的天枰和双方心理的天枰都明显偏向于女主角。
但是随着情节发展,男主角像胡汉三一样又回来了,而且还带回了显赫的资产,过去的生理障碍也一并消失,重振雄风。
此时的天枰转换了方向,慢慢向男主角倾斜。就连曾经绝情离开他的女主角,也重新爱上了他。
虽然在电影《白》中,这是一次人为的精巧的报复,但是和《美女与野兽》一样,它告诉了我们一个古老的真理:爱情并不是基于无有凭空产生的,爱情中,掺杂着太多复杂的现实因素,有关身份的悬殊,有关财富的多少,有关身体健康与否,有关相貌美丑。
换句话说,门当户对是古老智慧的结晶,它仍然能够用于指导现代生活,并且在人类本性发生扭转之前绝不过时。门当户对的婚姻和爱情实在是一种理想状态,是一种双赢的结合。
所以,与其说,是美丽的贝尔使得王子懂得了爱,变得温柔仁慈和绅士了,不如说是天枰的倾斜使得粗鲁的王子变得温柔谦卑——当然,美女的力量也不容否定,只是,这影响实在不足以使一个人转变本性。
同样讨论此主题的电影,还有金基德的《坏小子》,那是另一个貌似诡异离奇但又完全符合实际逻辑的世界。
对此主题浅显的理解到此为止,以后若有再加补充。
关于题目给出的问题,我的回答是:我要一个温柔的野兽,因为我是小弱弱,(*^__^* 嘻嘻……

迪斯尼于1991年全面收复失地的第一作,虽然剧情还是王子与公主的老套,其中穿***太多的音乐和歌曲,这都是老迪斯尼的特征,不过我们也看到了迪斯尼开创动画长片大片的模式,在一年之后的《阿拉丁》,我们就看到了新时代的全新的迪斯尼作品。
《美女与野兽》是经典的故事,本片人物形象生动可爱,不足之处在于剧情方面还没有完全放开想象的翅膀。《阿拉丁》就颠覆了传说中的灯怪的的形象,开创了1992年的票房最高纪录。
然而本片由Peabo Bryson和Celine Dion对唱的主题曲已然成为永恒的经典。
