生活英语|epic film 史诗电影

来源:www.sishuzi.com 2024-10-16

Nearly 3 million Chinese paid to watch The Founding of a Party, an epic1 film marking the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China , in the first five days of screening, the film's releaser said Wednesday.

电影发行方周三称,在电影《建党伟业》上映五天后,已有近300万人买票观看了这部电影。《建党伟业》是为了纪念中共成立90周年拍摄的史诗电影。

在上面的报道中,epic film就是史诗电影,史诗电影一般以历史为题材,时间跨度较大,场面宏大,资金投入也大。谈到epic(史诗),不少人会想到Homers Epic(《荷马史诗》)。史诗是叙述英雄传闻和重大历史事件的叙事长诗,所以史诗电影中也必不可少英雄。由此,epic一词有时也指了不起的事情,壮举,比如:Saving a child from icy water is really something of an epic.(从冰冷的水中救起一个孩子着实是个壮举。)

尽管《建党伟业》的初期票房略低于它的twin movie(姐妹篇)《建国大业》,但还是获得了很好的票房成绩。和《建国大业》一样,《建党伟业》也是all-star cast(全明星阵容)。这部电影讲述的是在20世纪前半叶正处于political disunity(政治分裂)的中国怎么样打造中共的历史故事。
