英文动画片感受

《风中奇缘》—好莱坞包装纸下美化的殖民历史说实话，最先被吸引的是《风中奇缘》的音乐，有一次，已经记不得是什么场合下听到那首动听的《风之彩》了，只是被那带点空灵，却又浑厚的音乐场景所吸引，可是一直不记得去看这部电影。刚刚看完后，感触比较多，迪斯尼的制作水准完全体现出来了，从技术的角度上讲，动画人物造型延续了迪斯尼的特色，场景渲染的丰富，色彩逼真。可能很多人看完这部电影后，和我的感觉一样，音乐太出彩了，无论是影片中采用的合唱旋律，或者片尾主题曲，的确制作精良，演出者全力投入，可以称得上一次音乐盛宴，与其得到众多赞扬和褒奖是名副其实的，梅尔吉布森的配音，凡妮莎威廉姆斯的献唱都为之填色着彩。但是，回过头来，故事情节，人物刻画却深深让人失望，为什么？我们不是六岁的孩子，我也不相信迪斯尼的观众全都是小孩子；作为稍有常识的成年观众，要认同这样的情节设计是很难的，我估计这也是《风中奇缘》在中国不太能造势的原因之一，情节，还是情节。在这部极力美化或者可以说否认殖民侵略历史的动画片里，首先表现出的是西方文化中强烈的文化中心论，这从梅尔吉布森那句“Savage”（直译可以理解为野人，或者蛮族），整个影片中总督倒是说了句实话，我们是为了金子，但是梅尔吉布森大哥配音的约翰就说的“大言不惭”了：“我们是来帮助你们开化的TO BE Civilized”.第二、对印第安人的再误解之所以说再误解，是因为是在找不出合适的词语来形容《风中奇缘》中对于当地人的刻画，刻意的描画，除了影片自始自终表现印第安人对于自然的强烈崇拜，再就是那棵会说话的神树了，印第安人的个性被完全塑造成好莱坞或者迪斯尼家的款式和风格，就连我们美丽的Pocahontas公主也拥有了完美的好莱坞的“尺码”。第三、爱情发生的时候无疑的，爱情是影片的核心部分，Pocahontas同约翰史密斯相爱了，这大概是必然，因为，影片中的神树都这么暗示了，那么，我们的公主是不会爱上别人的。问题就在于，公主同殖民者的爱情能化解两个种族，或者说两种不同文化，殖民和反殖民之间的矛盾吗？聪明的编剧当然不会把谎话圆的的完美，于是在流血和牺牲之后，总督被当作矛盾制造的焦点五花大绑的送上遣回之路，而史密斯同志则光荣负伤，于是虽然你们牺牲了一个勇士，我们也损失了一个总督，（在《风中奇缘2》中史密斯同志光荣牺牲了）那就扯平了？相反，也许是编剧实在没有办法为这个历史公案做一个近似童话（那是违背历史的）却又可以接受的结局，于是只有安排史密斯为保护酋长（或者说是部族的头领）而奄奄一息，乘船回国，Pocahontas公主在山顶，用当地手势默默目送心上人缓缓远去，风之彩悠然响起。。。。。。也许我们不能苛求迪斯尼像日本一样面对真实的历史，但是很遗憾的，《风中奇缘》的故事情节确实在不敢让人恭维，如果我们是天真的儿童，那也许会为这一场刻骨铭心（应该可以算是刻骨铭心吧？两个人冲破种族界限，文化的隔阂以及历史的残酷选择在一起）的爱情落下一个虽然心碎但却难忘的结局，可惜我们不是。 英文介绍：When Pocahontas originally came out, Disney's wave of recent hits came to a crashing halt. The film was labeled as racist or at least insensitive to Native Americans and the goodwill that Disney had established with its audiences quickly evaporated. You could say they have never been the same since. The "fearsome foursome" that is The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and the Lion King has no equal, except perhaps the last four Pixar movies. Pocahontas is not, unfortunately in that "club" and never will be. Disney spent the next four to five years trying to recreate the "magic" with films like Hunchback, Hercules, Mulan, and Tarzan. Unfortunately, none of those films had the surprise and "good feeling" of the earlier Disney hits, and except for maybe Mulan, none of those films, as films, were as good either. And although Pocahontas is and was the point where the schizm occurred, in retrospect, it's a pretty damned good movie. So what went wrong?First, it wasn't the Lion King. They could have put out something "safe" after the Lion King, and it still probably would have paled in comparison to what was then a great big giant behemoth of a movie. That movie earned over THREE HUNDRED MILLION in its theatrical run in 1994 - not as common then as it is now - thing was a juggernaut. Pocahontas, following on the heels of this bad boy, was not going to live up to expectations. People blamed the fact that it was about PEOPLE and not animals, and that it was based on ACTUAL history rather than a fairy tale. THEN they blamed the fact that the history part of it was botched and that the film's portrayal of Native Americans was at best insensitive, racist at worst. I'll grant you that making Pocahontas' mentor a talking tree and having her learn English "instantaneously" because she listened to her heart is a wee bit ridiculous, but racist? Come on. The message of the film - that love can conquer hate - is anything but racist and if anything, the film shows the "Indians" in a more human light than the English, who are their usual, stereotypical pig-headed selves. Here's what else is good about the movie: The SONGS. Remember 'Colors of the Wind'? Could there be a better song about reconnecting with nature and valuing the earth more? We NEED this song right now, especially, with the world seemingly sliding ever more into a consumerist "bliss," what better than to see some beautiful chick running through the forest teaching that rugged white man how to value LIFE? And what the hell is wrong with that I ask? And what about some of the other songs? The one about the RIVER BEND and making choices - good stuff. And the whole montage ending song that repeats SAVAGES SAVAGES BARELY EVEN HUMAN from both sides - showing that BOTH SIDES misunderstand each other. It gives me chills when Pocahontas is running and you see the war superimposed behind her and she sings "HOW LOUD BEAT THE DRUMS OF WAR!" - makes me want to cry! Don't we need this now I ask you?But, by far the best thing about this movie is - the animation. It is absolutely GORGEOUS. The design for this film is sumptuous, with mostly blues and a seamless style that never gets in the way and illustrates the action (and the feminine nature of the film) so beautifully. Compared to the dreck that is the HUNCHBACK - that film is ugly as sin - and the absolute HIDEOUSNESS of Hercules - the animation in that is strictly straight-to-video, Pocahontas absolutely ROCKS. Only Mulan, with its chirpy story and colorful style match up to the grandeur of this one. While Pocahontas didn't have the grand ending that the Lion King had (it was a downer, remember?), the story bucks tradition by making it about people instead of animals, and its' message outweighs the "historically inaccurate" complaint. What movie IS historically accurate? Disney took a chance with this one and they got BURNED, which is why they went back to doing "safe" crap like Hunchback, which tanked anyway. They should have done the SCARLET LETTER or something like that - really start pissing people off. How about the MARQUIS DE SADE? There's some history for you!Watch Pocahontas again without the weight of expectations. You'll be surprised by how good it really is.

英语翻译技巧：

1、省略翻译法

这与最开始提到的增译法相反，就是要求你把不符合汉语，或者英语的表达的方式、思维的习惯或者语言的习惯的部分删去，以免使所翻译出的句子沉杂累赘。

2、合并法

合并翻译法就是把多个短句子或者简单句合并到一起，形成一个复合句或者说复杂句，多出现在汉译英的题目里出现，比如最后会翻译成定语从句、状语从句、宾语从句等等。
