第一篇:《畢業(yè)生》英語影評
Ben has recently graduated college, with his parents now expecting great things from him.At his “Homecoming” party, Mrs.Robinson, the wife of his father's business partner, has Ben drive her home, which leads to an affair between the two.The affair eventually ends, but comes back to haunt him when he finds himself falling for Elaine, Mrs.Robinson's daughter.It makes us understand why Ben just has to do what he does, also telling us that Ben is not the strongest person in the world.Ross is quite nice too,although her character is pretty forgettable.If Ben would have chosen for Mrs.Robinson instead of the daughter it would probably have been more believable.Captain of the Crosscountry Team

………...Overall I think this is a great film, with only the ending as really implausible, although I must admit I liked it this way.Even if it has flaws, even if it is a little dated at times, it feels fresh and is more entertaining than most films today.The Graduate was a movie that everyone could relate to.The feeling of being thrown out into the world and life just passing you by is overwhelming which is how we find out main character Benjamin feeling.When we first meet him he stares straight ahead with a look that could mean so many things and in fact I felt that through out the movie I could never really tell how he felt except by the change if music and its tempo.I found Hoffman's character hard to grasp
except that he is just going through the motions in his monkey suit to make his parents happy.The action is mainly seen through the eyes of Benjamin Braddock, a confused twenty-one year old, who is worried about his future but who does not simply want to follow the commercial path of his affluent family and their friends.When Benjamin is on the plane there is a head shot of him staring straight ahead and his head seems to be enveloped by the brilliantly white head rest.I found that shot to be amusing because it showed the innocence that he possessed even after completing four years of college.Benjamin was the prodigal son who did everything to make his parents happy, even when he voiced complaints to his father about the party or the diving suit;he was never heard, throughout the movie his character is ignored until he meets Elaine.One of the many great scenes that drive the point across that he is lost in his own world where he can only hear himself is when he comes out for his 21st birthday party and his father will not listen to his objections.The audience is taken into the back yard through Benjamin's perspective(his own world)
looking through the goggles.All we can hear is his breath and all he can hear is himself which is what he is used to.His breath blocks every body out and he is pushed repeatedly back into the pool by his father.Benjamin decides to stay submerged and avoid reality.This theme of submersion is present in the beginning of the movie when he is looking through the fish tank and watches the fish swim around, they seem so free yet they can only swim so far before they are back where they started.Benjamin feels alone in the beginning until Mrs.Robinson begins to show an interest in him and pretty soon that white 'halo' from the plane turns to black.As far as the viewer can tell there is no emotional connection between Ben and Mrs.Robinson, he still walks around aimlessly and his manner turns from that of a paranoid youth, like many of us, to an almost cocky young man.An interesting aspect between the relationship of Ben and Mrs.Robinson is the way the gender roles are switched.Ben is interested in involving conversation to their meetings and feels like he is being used while Mrs.Robison just wants to be purely physical.Ben has a more feminine personality then Mrs.Robison because she has so many secrets kept inside.The romance between Ben and Elaine is somewhat rushed because one second they are in a adult club where Elaine feels insulted and wants nothing to do with Ben, and then the next thing we know they are laughing and getting along and going on another date.The next instance Elaine is being married off yet she does not object.When Ben shows up to the wedding it is hard to say whether she is happy because she loves him or if she is happy because he offers and escape for her.All she can hear is Ben screaming her name, everyone else is blocked out.
第二篇:《畢業(yè)生影評》
60年代,美國社會處于一系列嚴(yán)酷的社會現(xiàn)實:謀殺叢起、越南戰(zhàn)爭、民權(quán)運動、經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退、政治危機(jī)等等。
所謂“新好萊塢”指的是:從1967年一1976年,這樣一段時間。好萊塢電影在經(jīng)歷了意大利新現(xiàn)實主義電影和民族電影興起的影響之后;在經(jīng)歷了法國新浪潮的沖擊之后,在經(jīng)歷了自身從50年代到60年代的商業(yè)影片制作的衰退與電視對電影制作的沖擊之后,于60年代后半期和70年代,開始對類型電影從形式到主題進(jìn)行反思。而在另一方面,美國社會的動蕩與政治的危機(jī);電影舊體制與舊觀念的危機(jī),都成為這時期電影革命與演變的主要背景及因素。
新好萊塢電影
(1)新好萊塢運動
新好萊塢運動興起于20世紀(jì)60年代。一方面,這一時期是美國社會的多事之秋,黑人爭取平等自由的民權(quán)斗爭風(fēng)起云涌,曠日持久的越南戰(zhàn)爭使國內(nèi)反戰(zhàn)情緒不斷高漲,建立在非理性基礎(chǔ)上的反主流文化盛行。另一方面,這一時期的美國電影遭遇了前所未有的嚴(yán)冬,大的制片公司紛紛倒閉或轉(zhuǎn)產(chǎn),有的制片廠因財政困難放棄了使用知名導(dǎo)演和演員,而是大膽起用新人,還有的藝術(shù)家以較少的資金獨立制片或合資經(jīng)營電影公司,按照自己的意愿拍攝電影,這些電影人由于擁有更大的創(chuàng)作自由度和較少的傳統(tǒng)桎梏而使好萊塢電影開始呈現(xiàn)出新的面
貌。興起于60年代的新好萊塢運動為美國影壇奉獻(xiàn)了一大批杰出的導(dǎo)演,他們有卡薩斯特,阿瑟·佩恩,科波拉,丹尼爾·霍佩爾,馬丁·斯科塞斯,喬治·盧卡斯,斯皮爾伯格等。他們?yōu)?0年代以后的好萊塢電影再輝煌作出了積極貢獻(xiàn)。(2)新好萊塢電影的美學(xué)特征(對照于舊好萊塢)1.在影片主題與題材上:舊好萊塢電影由于受制片廠制度和政治的影響(美國當(dāng)時有個《海斯法典》禁止拍攝接觸社會的影片)因而在主題和題材上多為遠(yuǎn)離現(xiàn)實和政治的消遣娛樂內(nèi)容,在創(chuàng)作上體現(xiàn)中產(chǎn)階級的共性,中庸和保守的價值觀,現(xiàn)實主義傾向的影片在這一時期所占的比重很極少。而新好萊塢電影卻表現(xiàn)出對舊好萊塢電影的反叛,其電影對社會問題的尖銳暴露、批評和抗議,對現(xiàn)實生活直面的廣度和力度都給人以極深的震撼。如阿瑟·佩恩于1967年拍攝的被稱為新好萊塢誕生的標(biāo)志性影片《邦尼和克萊德》,故事發(fā)生在30年代的美國鄉(xiāng)村,是某種意義上的“警匪片”,但卻體現(xiàn)出當(dāng)代青年反抗的主題:直接反抗社會不公平和禁錮個性的暴力的正當(dāng)性。
新好萊塢電影比較有代表性的還的斯坦利?庫布里克的《2001遨游太空》(1968年)、《發(fā)條桔子》(1971年);馬丁?斯科西斯的《出租汽車司機(jī)》(1976年);米洛斯·福爾曼拍攝 《飛越瘋?cè)嗽骸罚?971年);弗朗西斯·科波拉《現(xiàn)代啟示錄》(1979年)。
受越南戰(zhàn)爭的影響,新好萊塢產(chǎn)生了一批反思越戰(zhàn)的優(yōu)秀影片,這些影片通過戰(zhàn)爭的生死際遇拷問人性的本真,揭露越戰(zhàn)帶給美國人民的肉體和心靈的創(chuàng)傷,這些影片被稱為“越戰(zhàn)片”。如《全金屬外殼》(1987年)、《獵鹿人》(1978年)、《現(xiàn)代啟示錄》(1979年)《野戰(zhàn)排》(1987年)等。
20世紀(jì)70年代,由于受“水門事件”等政治丑聞的影響,美國好萊塢還出現(xiàn)了政治電影,這些影片揭露司法制度,審判制度的黑暗,指責(zé)政府腐敗,反映社會不公。而更多的影片則以青年人為對象,表現(xiàn)他們在物質(zhì)生活高度富足的狀態(tài)下心靈的空虛,價值的失落,以及對傳統(tǒng)的徹底反叛。
2.在表現(xiàn)手法上:跳出經(jīng)典好萊塢戲劇電影模式,大量借鑒了歐洲藝術(shù)電影的創(chuàng)作經(jīng)驗,在表現(xiàn)手法上突出電影的影像功能。與舊好萊塢比較起來,新好萊塢電影在美學(xué)特征上可以從以下幾個方面來看待:
① 在情節(jié)結(jié)構(gòu)上,新好萊塢電影打破追求戲劇性的單向敘事模式,時空轉(zhuǎn)換更加靈活,不再追求故事情節(jié)的完整性而尋求開放的結(jié)尾。
② 人物不再定型化,而是根據(jù)其性格自身的發(fā)展展現(xiàn)其自然本性。善與惡不再是劃分人物好壞的徑渭分明的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。除此之外,新好萊塢電影在人物和情節(jié)的關(guān)系上,使人物不再隸屬于情節(jié)而是從情節(jié)突出人物。如科波拉的《現(xiàn)代啟示錄》,情節(jié)的發(fā)展實際上是主人公一步步走向瘋狂的歷程。影片給人的震撼不是情節(jié)是否具有懸念性,而是殘酷戰(zhàn)爭環(huán)境下人的異化和異化的人:奉命殺死一個戰(zhàn)爭狂人的中尉卻在經(jīng)歷了種種事件之后變成了另一個狂人。③ 新好萊塢電影更加重視包括鏡頭語言在內(nèi)的電影技巧的開拓。新好萊塢電影不追求銀幕上的真實而是運用各種電影技巧使其產(chǎn)生一定的間離效果,也因此,在新好萊塢電影中,各種角度和不同速度的鏡頭、定格、跳接等十分豐富。新的影像語言強(qiáng)化了視覺上的沖擊力,使畫面更具藝術(shù)效果,而隱喻和象征手法的運用則從另一個方面為電影增加了哲理內(nèi)涵,從而也使影片更具導(dǎo)演個人風(fēng)格特征。如科波拉的《教父》,它實際上是把一個美國電影中頗為傳統(tǒng)的“家庭故事”放大為一個家庭的神話,使傳統(tǒng)強(qiáng)盜片中的個人英雄融化在一個無所不在的家族勢力之中,而這個家族則成為當(dāng)代美國乃至整個資本主義的縮影。
值得提出的是新好萊塢發(fā)展到20世紀(jì)80年代以后,旨在追求影片視覺
效果的商業(yè)電影開始出現(xiàn),其代表為盧卡斯的《星球大戰(zhàn)》系列和斯皮爾伯格的《侏羅紀(jì)》系列。這些影片充分利用了電影高科技的成果,特技攝影和數(shù)字制作幾乎成為了取代情節(jié)的法寶。這些影片所帶來的前所未有的視覺奇觀已經(jīng)遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超出了人們的視覺經(jīng)驗?zāi)酥翂艋?,從而給觀者以極大的感官刺激和震撼。
(3)好萊塢類型片的復(fù)興
70年代中期以后以斯皮爾伯格的《大白鯊》和盧卡斯的《星球大戰(zhàn)》為代表,一批帶有驚險、恐怖、科幻色彩的電影將觀眾重新吸引到影院里來,這些片子的賣座是好萊塢人重新認(rèn)識到類型片所蘊涵的巨大的商業(yè)價值。于是,各種類型電影在好萊塢再次受到青睞。復(fù)興時期的類型片在原有模式上又具有三大特色:一是注重迎合年輕人的欣賞心理,影片大都描繪青年心理特征,吸納現(xiàn)代派思想,創(chuàng)造前衛(wèi)的銀幕形象和時尚內(nèi)容;二是大量加入現(xiàn)代科技成分,特技攝影和數(shù)字技術(shù)是銀幕更具視覺效果;三是在原有類型片基礎(chǔ)上發(fā)展出新的類型片,如倫理片、災(zāi)難片等。總之,新好萊塢電影無論在技術(shù)上還是在藝術(shù)上所取得的成功再度顯示了美國電影強(qiáng)大的生命力,傳統(tǒng)與現(xiàn)代交織的好萊塢依然是不倒的“電影王國”。
電影《畢業(yè)生》反映了當(dāng)時美國社會的情況。電影主人公是一個前途輝煌的年輕人,Ben。他出身顯赫,年輕氣盛,但卻在畢業(yè)后迷失了人生方向,并由此產(chǎn)生了一段畸形愛情故事。這部電影揭示了當(dāng)時美國社會所帶給人民的彷徨和迷茫,尤其是給年輕一代的困惑。一個剛步出大學(xué)校門的社會新鮮人,面對眾人口中所謂的美好前程,他只感到一片茫然,之后他陷入了一個已婚婦人的溫柔網(wǎng),既之又愛上她的妙齡女兒。這是那個時代的悲哀。
達(dá)斯汀·霍夫曼飾演的這部電影,一新好萊塢陳腔,成為《新好萊塢電影》的先鋒之作,但因為男主角先后與片中母女發(fā)生關(guān)系的劇情而在臺灣被禁演長達(dá)二十年。其貌不揚的達(dá)斯汀·霍夫曼因為深刻演繹這號反英雄人物,而開啟他日后璀璨的表演事業(yè),這也是麥克尼可斯導(dǎo)演的代表作。
影片開始時,男主人公表情嚴(yán)肅地走著,表現(xiàn)了他對未來的迷茫與擔(dān)憂。接著皮箱的鏡頭則暗示了他那已被安排好的未來,沒有選擇,沒有自主,皮箱的拐彎說明了一定的模式,Ben必須按照既定模式走。它對自己的人生沒有掌控權(quán)。這大膽揭露了六十年代年輕人迷失方向,戳破美式中產(chǎn)階級虛偽面具。它告訴父親“I want to be different”,然而這是不可能的。宴會上重重玻璃的一幕是一個動機(jī),表現(xiàn)了人與人之間缺乏交流,有隔閡。Ben在魚缸后喘氣,是把他比做了一條魚。Mrs Robinson把鑰匙扔進(jìn)了魚缸,Ben伸手去拿鑰匙的這一幕,絕妙地隱喻了Ben的上鉤,鑰匙是女人放的餌。發(fā)生關(guān)系之后,導(dǎo)演通過Ben躺在床上,Mrs Robinson身著不同衣服來回走動,表現(xiàn)了歲月流逝,也說明兩人不止一次發(fā)生了關(guān)系。其間兩人從沒有交流,表現(xiàn)了兩人只有肉體交易,沒有精神溝通的空虛失愛狀態(tài)。
這是影片中運用蒙太奇的絕妙之處。接著,把Ben跳到Mrs Robinson身上的鏡頭切換到游泳時跳到浮板上的鏡頭,這是比喻蒙太奇,把浮板比作Mrs Robinson。這表明兩人只有肉 體接觸,毫無精神交流,互相只是一種工具罷了。Ben穿著厚重的服裝那一幕,是一個主觀鏡頭,是通過他的視角來看世界,這運用了攝影技術(shù)。到水中后,萬籟俱寂,只有粗大的喘氣聲,這是聲音蒙太奇,形象地讓觀眾體驗到了Ben的處境,周圍寂靜,呼吸困難,仿佛身臨其境。
影片中也有許多幽默之處,包括語言幽默、動作幽默等等。服務(wù)生詢問Ben:”Are you here for the affair,sir?”這是一語雙關(guān),“affair”在英語中既指婚禮,又指幽會,而Ben 正是 在婚禮宴會上與Mrs Robinson幽會的。這是語言幽默。幽會開房時,Ben把原來寫著真名 的紙放入口袋,重新寫上了假名。他把手放在鈴上,服務(wù)生敲在他手上,他被敲得很疼。接 吻前Ben不自然得清了清喉嚨,接吻時,由于Ben鼻大而歪著臉,之后Mrs Ronbinson吸著口煙屏著氣接吻,結(jié)束后才一吐為快。脫衣服時,Ben伸出手來,Mrs Robinson卻在搓 衣服。Ben痛苦地撞腦袋。這些是夸張的動作幽默,讓人忍俊不禁,也生動表現(xiàn)了Ben的年輕懵懂。
《畢業(yè)生》是一部經(jīng)典的影片,對于世界電影的發(fā)展有著重要的貢獻(xiàn),它的許多電影手法仍在指導(dǎo)著許多后人,它被視為經(jīng)典,被視為模范,現(xiàn)在的不少電影中能見到與其異曲同工的妙處所在,它依然有著借鑒作用,它在電影界的影響至今仍然很大。我們沒有忘記這部精彩的電影,這是一部有著非凡意義的電影。尤其是它的主題曲,”The Sounf of Silence”仍然耳熟能詳。淡淡的憂傷,淡淡的灰色,正符合影片的主題,反映著主人公的迷茫心境??偠灾?,《畢業(yè)生》的光輝將照耀后世,將永遠(yuǎn)熠熠生輝!
“新好萊塢電影 ”的先鋒之作
二戰(zhàn)后從50年代中期到60年中期,美國社會經(jīng)濟(jì)迅猛發(fā)展,年輕一輩開始對維系資本主義社會運轉(zhuǎn)的舊秩序、舊傳統(tǒng)的合理性產(chǎn)生置疑,形形色色的反文化社會思潮風(fēng)起云涌:民權(quán)運動、婦女解放運動、反越戰(zhàn)運動以及性解放、嬉皮士,都體現(xiàn)了新一代的思想觀念的顛覆性與破壞性。反文化正是60年代、尤其是60年代中后期文藝作品的主旋律?!懂厴I(yè)生》就是這股反文化浪潮的代表作。一部成功的影片必然是藝術(shù)家對于現(xiàn)時社會的人文關(guān)懷和心靈體察,是對社會深層問題的發(fā)掘與表現(xiàn),是藝術(shù)家主觀思維的靈魂升華?!懂厴I(yè)生》透視了當(dāng)時美國年輕人對社會現(xiàn)實的迷茫、不滿以及無奈,并且不同程度上反映了當(dāng)時的社會問題,是一部諷刺文學(xué)作品,不過最終影片始終是站在中產(chǎn)階級的立場上來同情這些年輕人。堅持往日“美國夢”的中產(chǎn)階級認(rèn)為,畢竟年輕一輩沒有經(jīng)歷過戰(zhàn)爭的煎熬,年輕一輩應(yīng)該好好珍惜自己來之不易的生活,向“美國夢”努力奮斗,所謂“美國夢”只是資本主義中產(chǎn)階級固化生活的一種模式,有車有房子有兒女生活安逸等等;而以大學(xué)生、嬉皮士為代表的年輕一輩確實由于沒有經(jīng)歷過戰(zhàn)爭,他們的價值觀、人生觀根本無法理解為什么他們的父母那一代人要這樣給他們自己安排這種“美國夢”生活,而他們那些維護(hù)和平、維護(hù)人權(quán)等想法雖
然美好,但是卻略顯得理想主義化。兩種不同的價值觀在沖突,到了60年代中后期,已經(jīng)有一種滋長了的對社會的現(xiàn)狀以及中產(chǎn)階級的價值觀的不滿情緒出現(xiàn)。隨著越戰(zhàn)的爆發(fā),1967年正是國內(nèi)反文化、反戰(zhàn)情緒最高漲的一年,而《畢業(yè)生》這部電影恰好映射了美國60年代年輕人的反文化思想。電影中對搖滾樂、嬉皮、性解放、反越戰(zhàn)等反文化運動都有不同程度的暗示和反映??梢哉f電影故事表面上反映的是普通年輕人與父輩中產(chǎn)階級之間價值觀的對立,而在更深層次上暗示了美國60年代年輕人與傳統(tǒng)的社會價值取向之間的對立,這種對立在反文化運動中得到很好的體現(xiàn)
另外,英美電影文化與欣賞這門課程讓我學(xué)到了很多??丛骐娪皩W(xué)西方文化:英語電影是英語學(xué)習(xí)的工具之一.以語言學(xué)習(xí)和英語文化學(xué)習(xí)相結(jié)合為原則.通過對英語電影的解讀介紹英語電影中的西方文化元素,尤其是西方宗教和歷史元素。電影是當(dāng)今世界不可或缺的文化載體之一.它用豐富多彩的內(nèi)容給人們帶去無數(shù)的視聽盛宴。同時.對于英語學(xué)習(xí)者來說,英文原版電影還為英語學(xué)習(xí)者提供了純正的語言學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境,是理想的外語學(xué)習(xí)工具之一。鑒賞原版電影、學(xué)習(xí)地道英語已經(jīng)成為越來越多人觀看電影的動機(jī)之一。這里我們也應(yīng)該注意到,語言傳遞了文化信息,通過了解文化能夠更好地理解語言.在觀賞原版電影的時候我們應(yīng)該本著語言學(xué)習(xí)和文化學(xué)習(xí)相結(jié)合的原則,多留意對兩方文化的學(xué)習(xí).以更有助于對地道英語的掌握。同時我也知道了各種鑒賞電影的手法方法,大大的豐富了知識。
第三篇:畢業(yè)生影評
你要去斯卡布羅市集嗎? 你好,黑暗,我的朋友。
一首《斯卡布羅市集》,一首《寂靜之聲》,讓我們認(rèn)識了西蒙和加豐科,也讓我們走進(jìn)了《畢業(yè)生》這部電影。那時的達(dá)斯汀*霍夫曼多青澀啊,他無憂無慮地戴著墨鏡,漂在游泳池上的樣子,讓每個成年人都回憶起自己那一去不返又多愁善感的青春。
一個大學(xué)生,陰差陽錯地和一個婦人發(fā)生了關(guān)系,這讓他既感到成熟的勝利,又感到深深的不安。他的內(nèi)心在掙扎,在掙扎中,他發(fā)現(xiàn)了自己的真愛,那個婦人的女兒。最后,他從婚禮上搶走了新娘,他終歸和自己的真愛走到一起。
欲望的誘惑、未來的迷茫、人性的成熟、飛揚的青春、不滅的希望,這些因素混合在一起,讓你很難形容心里到底是什么滋味。也許,這就是一個畢業(yè)生的感覺吧。
女兒和媽媽共同喜歡一個人,有點不好說吧。媽媽一定會很尷尬的,和自己的情人。
1.Terrific classic, 21 October 2004 Author: rbverhoef(rbverhoef@hotmail.com)from The Hague, Netherlands
'The Graduate' still feels fresh although it was made in the sixties.It tells the story of Mrs.Robinson(Anne Bancroft)who seduces graduate Ben Braddock(Dustin Hoffman).She could be his mother and indeed Mrs.Robinson has a daughter named Elaine(Katharine Ross)who is Ben's age.After Mrs.Robinson and Ben has shared the bed for a while he has to go on a date with Elaine because his parents force him.Mrs.Robinson is not happy, even less when Ben and Elaine start liking each other.This classic film from director Mike Nichols, his second movie after the great 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf', may have lost its strength in some scenes but other great moments make up for that.The first time we meet Ben, just graduated on a party, every single one wants to speak to him and he is getting really tired of them all.He tries to lose them all and that ends up with having the first encounter with Mrs.Robinson.This leads up to the best known scene with the most memorable line from this film.The second party is on Ben's birthday.His must show his present which gives us a hilarious scene.Considering the first party he finds his peace at last, although probably not the way he wanted it.Little things like this make this movie entertaining.The strong acting from both Hoffman and Bancroft also help.Especially the early scenes from Bancroft are terrific.They make us understand why Ben just has to do what he does, also telling us that Ben is not the strongest person in the world.Ross is quite nice too, although her character is pretty forgettable.If Ben would have chosen for Mrs.Robinson instead of the daughter it would probably have been more believable.The music from Simon & Garfunkel is great, although it does not add something to the film really.Because three well known songs('Mrs.Robinson', 'The Sound of Silence' and 'Scarborough Fair')play over and over again some people will get tired of it after a while.I liked the songs enough to not have that problem.Overall I think this is a great film, with only the ending as really implausible, although I must admit I liked it this way.Even if it has flaws, even if it is a little dated at times, it feels fresh and is more entertaining than most films today.2.The Graduate, 29 January 2006 Author: Delonga22 from United States
Mike Nichol's The Graduate was a movie that everyone could relate to.The feeling of being thrown out into the world and life just passing you by is overwhelming which is how we find out main character Benjamin feeling.When we first meet him he stares straight ahead with a look that could mean so many things and in fact I felt that through out the movie I could never really tell how he felt except by the change if music and its tempo.I found Hoffman's character hard to grasp except that he is just going through the motions in his monkey suit to make his parents happy.When Benjamin is on the plane there is a head shot of him staring straight ahead and his head seems to be enveloped by the brilliantly white head rest.I found that shot to be amusing because it showed the innocence that he possessed even after completing four years of college.Benjamin was the prodigal son who did everything to make his parents happy, even when he voiced complaints to his father about the party or the diving suit;he was never heard, throughout the movie his character is ignored until he meets Elaine.One of the many great scenes that drive the point across that he is lost in his own world where he can only hear himself is when he comes out for his 21st birthday party and his father will not listen to his objections.The audience is taken into the back yard through Benjamin's perspective(his own world)looking through the goggles.All we can hear is his breath and all he can hear is himself which is what he is used to.His breath blocks every body out and he is pushed repeatedly back into the pool by his father.Benjamin decides to stay submerged and avoid reality.This theme of submersion is present in the beginning of the movie when he is looking through the fish tank and watches the fish swim around, they seem so free yet they can only swim so far before they are back where they started.Benjamin feels alone in the beginning until Mrs.Robinson begins to show an interest in him and pretty soon that white 'halo' from the plane turns to black.As far as the viewer can tell there is no emotional connection between Ben and Mrs.Robinson, he still walks around aimlessly and his manner turns from that of a paranoid youth, like many of us, to an almost cocky young man.An interesting aspect between the relationship of Ben and Mrs.Robinson is the way the gender roles are switched.Ben is interested in involving conversation to their meetings and feels like he is being used while Mrs.Robison just wants to be purely physical.Ben has a more feminine personality then Mrs.Robison because she has so many secrets kept inside.The romance between Ben and Elaine is somewhat rushed because one second they are in a adult club where Elaine feels insulted and wants nothing to do with Ben, and then the next thing we know they are laughing and getting along and going on another date.The next instance Elaine is being married off yet she does not object.When Ben shows up to the wedding it is hard to say whether she is happy because she loves him or if she is happy because he offers and escape for her.All she can hear is Ben screaming her name, everyone else is blocked out.They escape from the wedding and the end scene I found leaving me hanging.I would have expected that they would have kissed and lived happily ever after but instead their smiles fade away as they realize they have no idea what will happen next and they are back to the beginning again.The film leaves you wondering what will happen? Will the characters end up happy together? Or are they looking to each other as an escape from the domination of their parents?
1。太棒了經(jīng)典,2004年10月21日
作者:rbverhoef,荷蘭海牙(rbverhoef@hotmail.com)
“畢業(yè)生”,雖然它是在六十年代,仍然覺得新鮮。它講述的故事引誘研究生本布拉多克(達(dá)斯汀霍夫曼)的羅賓遜夫人(安妮班克羅夫特)。她可能是他的母親和羅賓遜夫人確實有一個女兒叫伊萊恩(凱瑟琳羅斯)誰是Ben的年齡。后羅賓遜夫人和Ben有一個共享的床上,而他與伊萊恩的日期,因為他的父母強(qiáng)迫他。羅賓遜夫人是不開心,甚至更少,當(dāng)本和Elaine開始喜歡對方。
這經(jīng)典電影,他的偉大的“誰害怕弗吉尼亞伍爾夫”后的第二部電影,導(dǎo)演邁克尼科爾斯可能在某些場景已經(jīng)失去了它的實力,但為其他偉大的時刻。我們第一次見面本,剛剛在黨畢業(yè),每一個人愿意和他說話,他是他們都變得非常累。他試圖失去他們所有,并結(jié)束與魯濱遜夫人第一次遇到。這導(dǎo)致了從這部電影最難忘的線最好的著名場景。第二方是在Ben的生日。他必須證明他目前這給了我們一個熱鬧場景??紤]到親民黨,他終于找到了他的和平,雖然可能不是這樣,他想。
這樣的小事,使這部電影娛樂?;舴蚵桶嗫肆_夫特強(qiáng)的演技也有幫助。尤其是班克羅夫特早期場景都有不俗的表現(xiàn)。他們讓我們理解為什么本只是做他做什么,也告訴我們,本是不是在世界上最強(qiáng)的的人。羅斯是相當(dāng)不錯的,雖然她的性格是相當(dāng)遺忘。如果本會選擇了羅賓遜夫人的女兒,而不是它可能會更可信。
西蒙和加芬克爾的音樂是偉大的,雖然它不添加一些電影真的。由于三個著名的歌曲(“羅賓遜夫人”,“沉默的聲音”和“斯卡布羅集市”)打過來,一遍,有些人會得到厭倦了一段時間后。我喜歡的歌曲,沒有這個問題。
總的來說,我認(rèn)為這是一個偉大的電影,真的令人難以置信的結(jié)局,盡管我必須承認(rèn),我很喜歡它這種方式。即使有缺陷,哪怕是一點點在次月,感到新鮮和超過目前大部分電影娛樂。
2。研究生,2006年1月29日 作者:來自美國Delonga22
麥克尼科爾的研究生,是一部電影,每個人都可能涉及到。被拋出世界和人生,剛好路過你的感覺是壓倒性的,這是我們?nèi)绾握业街鹘潜窘苊鞯母杏X。當(dāng)我們第一次見面他,他凝視直行一看,這可能意味著這么多東西,其實我覺得通過了電影,我從來沒有告訴他如何改變除外覺得如果音樂和節(jié)奏。我發(fā)現(xiàn)霍夫曼的性格難以把握,他只是在他的猴子西裝走過場,使他的父母高興除外。
當(dāng)本雅明在飛機(jī)上是有一個盯著他的頭部中彈直行和他的頭部似乎是籠罩精辟白了頭休息。我發(fā)現(xiàn)那一槍是有趣的,因為它表明,即使他擁有完成大學(xué)四年后的天真。本杰明是浪子,他們所做的一切,使他的父母高興,他表示,即使他的父親黨或潛水服的投訴;他從來沒有聽說過,整個電影,他的性格是被忽略,直到他遇到伊萊恩。
驅(qū)動的跨越,他是在自己的世界失去了點,他只能聽到自己的許多大場面時,他談到了他21歲生日的黨和他的父親不聽他的反對。觀眾是考慮到后院通過本雅明的角度來看,通過護(hù)目鏡(他自己的世界)。我們可以聽到他的呼吸,他能聽到的是自己,這是他用來。他的呼吸塊每一個身體,他推入池中反復(fù)回由他的父親。本杰明決定留淹沒和避免的現(xiàn)實。這個主題淹沒在電影開始時,他期待通過魚缸,看著魚游來游去,他們似乎使自由,但他們只能游泳至今才回到他們開始的地方。
本杰明感覺開始獨自直到羅賓遜夫人開始展現(xiàn)在他的興趣,很快,白色的“光環(huán)”從平面變?yōu)楹谏V劣诳梢愿嬖V觀眾,沒有本和羅賓遜夫人之間的情感聯(lián)系,他仍然走動漫無目的的,他的態(tài)度變成一個偏執(zhí)狂的青年,就像我們許多人,幾乎趾高氣揚的年輕人。Ben和羅賓遜夫人的關(guān)系之間的一個有趣的方面是性別角色的切換方式。本是在談話涉及到他們的會議,感覺就像他正在使用,而羅賓遜夫人只是想純粹的物理。本具有更女性化的個性,那么羅賓遜夫人,因為她已經(jīng)保持內(nèi)部的許多秘密。
本和Elaine之間的浪漫有點沖,因為一秒鐘,他們是在一個成人俱樂部伊萊恩覺得侮辱,并希望與本無關(guān),然后接下來的事情,我們知道他們都笑了,相處和另一日期。下一個實例伊萊恩結(jié)婚,但她并不反對。當(dāng)本顯示的婚禮,這是很難說是否她很高興,因為她愛他,如果她是高興,因為他提供并為她逃脫。她可以聽到本尖叫她的名字,其他人都阻擋在外。
他們逃離婚禮結(jié)束的場景,我發(fā)現(xiàn)離開我掛。我本來期望,他們將有親吻過得很幸福,而不是他們的笑容消失,因為他們意識到他們不知道未來會發(fā)生什么,他們再次回到起點。電影葉你想知道會發(fā)生什么?字符結(jié)束快樂起來呢?或者他們在尋找對方作為一個從他們的父母支配逃生?
雖然這片子是67年的了,但是Benjamin卻和現(xiàn)在的很多年輕人一樣,在校內(nèi)表現(xiàn)優(yōu)秀,畢業(yè)后要走入社會了卻十分的迷茫。Benjamin更是屬于EQ超低的那種,又呆又傻,很輕易的就被一個已婚的徐娘半老的女人的身體給吸引住了。他最初的點點懷疑猶豫和抵抗一下子就被一個男孩身體的欲望給擊破,但是他們之間只是“性”,所謂的“喜歡”,也只是這個男孩和女人身體上的契合。
感覺電影的前半部分就是Benjamin在身理上的成長。后半部分就是心理上的成長了。前半部分喚醒了Benjamin身體上的欲望,后半部分喚醒了他情感上的欲望。
當(dāng)Elaine出現(xiàn),Mrs.Robinson一下子就在她的對比下蒼老了,也失去了吸引力。Elaine年輕活力,而且情緒化,一下子讓男孩明白了什么才是情感上的沖動和激情。
但是母女都與這個男孩有關(guān)系,也就造成這戲的主要的矛盾。但是當(dāng)男孩與女人的關(guān)系被拆穿,女孩還無法理解就離去,男孩費盡心思想把女孩追回來的時候,我依然沒有看到什么真愛的火花。
一切都只是沖動。與女人糾纏不清是生理沖動,對女孩死纏爛打是心理沖動。總感覺他去追回女孩不是為了愛,而是他想贏得青春的首場戰(zhàn)爭。人生難得幾回搏嘛!
最后他費盡周折,大鬧婚禮,搶到女孩上了公車,兩個人沒有激情擁吻,卻只是面面相覷。不知道前路在何方。
其實這不是喜劇,而像是一場鬧劇。說鬧劇并非貶低此片,而是對于男孩女孩來講,他們的青春像是一場鬧劇,一切只是為了沖動和刺激而存在。
至于說母親為什么不同意他愛上她的女兒這大概既是出自女人的嫉妒與占有欲,又怕接踵而來的尷尬相處。
真怕自己身邊發(fā)生這種事,不過這究竟是中年人的茫然與困頓還是他們在社會壓力下間而扭曲的畸形心里,誰又知道呢?

達(dá)斯 汀·霍夫曼對未知世界的彷徨和向往,以及那個洋溢著激情和沖動的結(jié)尾,都一絲不差地契合了畢業(yè)生的心情。當(dāng)然,還有那首廣為傳唱的插曲,它會適時地蕩起你 心中淡淡的離愁.有時也會有一種對未來的迷茫就像影片中展示的那樣,彷徨,無所事事.就是那樣發(fā)呆,死死的發(fā)呆......從影片的開始本的臉上就是一臉麻木的表情,正是所有畢業(yè)生所共有的.而影片的音樂更是增添了一種憂郁的色彩,悠悠的,清清的,讓人不知不覺的進(jìn)入了自己內(nèi) 心的世界去思考些什么.什么呢?本是一個優(yōu)秀的畢業(yè)生,而且他的家人早就為他準(zhǔn)備好了一切就等著他的歸來,而他對這些似乎還上不在意.他對自己的人生充滿 了疑問.或許他也曾憧憬過很多美好的未來,但在現(xiàn)實生活中他要面對的東西遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過了學(xué)校的書本,他要面對各種誘惑,還要承受高潮過后的寂寞,這就是人生.或許他還沒有作好準(zhǔn)備,或許他開始暴露他人性中的缺點.當(dāng)羅賓遜太太邀請他到她家的時候,或者是在她開始誘惑他的時候,他的良知開始淪陷,我們不能說他的內(nèi)心沒有掙扎,但最后他還是選擇的墮落.而羅賓遜太太就 是這個社會的象征,她牢牢掌控著本.她曾經(jīng)也是一個像本一樣憧憬美好的畢業(yè)生,但經(jīng)過世事的經(jīng)歷,她一點一點的被這個社會同化.現(xiàn)在成了一個追求肉欲享 樂,精神空虛的半老徐娘.在自身受到威脅時是那么的狡詐惡毒.或許到最后我們都會像她那樣吧.而這時的本也暴露了他的弱點,他懦弱,這一點從開始在羅賓遜 太太家里面對她的調(diào)情是本的不知所措就可以看出.面對這個社會本是一張空白的紙,他要經(jīng)歷的東西還有很多,他要學(xué)的東西還有很多.現(xiàn)在的本精神也如羅賓遜 太太一樣空虛,但他多了懦弱.但在與羅賓遜太太偷情的這段時間里他也感覺到了無聊一天他的父親嚴(yán)厲的問到“你對自己的未來到底有什么打算” 時, 他被刺眼的陽光弄得睜不開眼,現(xiàn)實的問題對他來說是那么棘手,而他只能在不停的游泳和偷情中去逃避.“你問住我了”本的回答無力而迷茫,但這也喚起了他對 自身的思考.而就在這時他的天使一連出現(xiàn)了.一連可以說是片中唯一的完美形象了但可惜也是三個人中最單純的一個.本從她身上發(fā)現(xiàn)了自己已經(jīng)和逐漸失去的東西,終于鼓起 勇氣向一連告白,但事情當(dāng)然不會那么簡單,羅賓遜太太瘋了似的阻撓他們.但兩顆相愛的心走到了一起,終于在一個大雨之日本向一連坦白了他的行為,但當(dāng)一連 知道那個女人就是自己的母親時.她無法忍受毅然的離開了本.一連的離開讓本開始思考,他發(fā)現(xiàn)自己不能沒有一連,她帶給他太多的東西,讓他找到了自己的方向,找到了自己生活下去的理由.他決定追回一連.在破壞婚禮的這場戲里,鏡頭對混亂的表現(xiàn)很到位,在看到窗外哀號的本時,鏡頭分別給羅賓遜太太和羅賓遜先生一個特寫,夾雜在混亂的全景中,級好的表現(xiàn)了他們那種虛偽面孔下的窮兇級惡的扭曲,而本終于得到了一連.最后兩個人奔跑著踏上象征自由的公車奔向解放.他們的臉上露出了燦爛的笑容,眼中有希望有欣喜有決心但也有些許的迷茫.新的生活就要開始不知道兩個人即將面對的會是什么?

Forrest Gump review
Forrest Gump describes a story happened on an idiot called Forrest Gump from the 1950’s to the 1980’s in America.As developed America, as Forrest Gump grew up.Ferrost experienced lots of things of importance in the history of America such as the assassinate of kennnedy, the Vietnam War, the Pingpong Diplomacy
and so on.He became a football star, a war hero, a business boss, and a millionnaire.In our view, he is almost a superman, but he did not notice that.As we all know, the film has received a lot of prizes in the Oscar and the other film festivals.I think it deserves it.Some people think this film is a comedy, but I don’t think so.I consider this film as a rony film.The rony occurred in details and was hidden in humor.I will give an example.Do you think an idiot
could be a war hero? I think it should be impossible.But in Vietnam War, it is.In the other way, if the war was started by the fool, the idiot
deserves the hero.From this point, we can see the against attitude of the public taken to this war.Forrest Gump is also a film that can motivate people.In this
film, Forrest take a special attitude different from almost of us to life.The life of Forrest is not very easy, but no matter what he is going to face next, he always accepted it easily, and try his best to accomplish it.Never in his life, he complain about the unfair of 命運 or lost confident of himself.What he did is just doing his best, which is very simple.In our real life, how many people struggled to get something, but in the end, nothing was left.Why not live as Forrest Gump? Doing best is just okey, but never stop our step forward.When it comes to the script, there is no reason not to say the famous words.‘Life was like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re gonna get.’.It was passed to Forrest by his mother.What wise words it is.The beauty of life is just in the aspect that no one can know what is tommorow like.That is just why I like it.If we all knew what will happen in future, the life must be boring enough.The other fomous script is only one word ‘run’.I think in thisfilm The ‘run’ stand for change.Forrest changed from an idiot
into a success, but there is something that didn’t change.The woman bus driver who took Forrest to school also pick his son
up to school for the first time.I suppose this film deserves us watching it thousands of times.During the progress, we can enjoy the power of one person, the beauty of scenes, be moved by the plot, be influenced by the scripts.Thank you

Thought he would be so comfortable, but he was the only one who love, Jenny came back, Jane began to give him bring happiness and joy, and then Jenny and quietly left.Forrest gump began to fell into chaos, he is going to start running.Someone said he seemed to be thinking in the running, but I think he won't, because forrest gump is a focus on people, if he were running, that he must be in the running, don't want to other things in our mind.What's more, he is a person always live in their own world.Later, he ran for a long time, and have a lot of followers, finally one day, he didn't want to run, and Jenny is back on his world, and of course their son-little forrest gump.Whose end is perfect.Lieutenant Dan is also a perfect ending.Forrest gump's persistent rescued Jenny and lieutenant Dan, or at least to save their souls.Forrest gump's life appeared a lot of miracle, but not the miracle, also will never lead you to envy him, you can only appreciate and forrest gump together those years, life and history, taste the bitter sweet, in order to “across defects, perfect life”.Life is like a feather, who also don't know where next moment want to gone with the wind, insists he wants to is good, but a lot of people like Jenny, in order to pursue and pursue, ignore the side Fine, only the angrily moment in mind, or as lt.Dan to make pain became the pain of forever.There is no one in the film of forrest gump said thank you, but I believe that all those who have seen the film will sincerely say: thank you, forrest gump.
