今天,电影的题材涉及生活的方方面面,其中很重要的一面就是我们的老师。教师节的电影层出不穷。关于教师的电影往往根据真人真事改编。著名的教师题材电影展现了教师为接近学生们的生活和内心世界,努力探索自我心灵的故事。这些电影说明了教师在社会中不可或缺的地位,并向他们对教育事业的奉献和付出致以最真诚的敬意。
以下是一些广受欢迎的教师电影:
To Sir, with Love
吾爱吾师 (1967)
Directed by James Clavell
Starring Sidney Poitier,
Christian Roberts
Produced in 1967, this film with Sidney Poitier as a novice[新手]
teacher has a lot to teach us today. Poitier takes a teaching position in the rough part of London in order to pay his bills. Realizing that his
students need to be taught important life lessons more than the curriculum[课程], he throws out the lesson plans and makes a real impact on their lives.
这部拍摄于1967年、由西德尼·波蒂埃扮演菜鸟教师的电影对今天的我们仍然极具教育意义。为了生计,波蒂埃接受了在伦敦落后地区的一份教师工作。在意识到学生需要学习重要的人生课程更甚于课本知识后,他抛开课程大纲,给他们的人生带来真真正正的影响。
Dangerous Minds危险游戏 (1995)
Directed by John N. Smith
Starring Michelle Pfeiffer, George Dzundza
Michelle Pfeiffer is excellent as real-life former
marine[海军士兵] Louanne Johnson. Teaching English in a tough inner-city school, she reaches the “unteachable” through caring and understanding. Very true-to-life,
Dangerous Minds does not fall into sentimentality[多愁善感], but instead teaches us of the importance of making our own choices and not allowing circumstances[境况,境遇] to rule us.
米歇尔·菲佛成功扮演了现实生活中的前海军士兵卢安
娜·约翰逊。她在城中一间校风极差的学校教英语,通过关怀和理解与那些“不受教学生”建立了信任。《危险游戏》拍得真实可信,没有落入伤感的套路。相反,它教会我们做自己的选择以及不向环境低头的
重要性。
Music of the Heart
弦动我心 (1999)
Directed by Wes Craven
Starring Meryl Streep, Cloris Leachman
This film shows the influence that one person’s drive[魄力] and vision can have on others. Meryl Streep plays real-life Roberta Guaspari who moves to Harlem注1
as a single-mother and becomes a violin teacher. Working through racial[种族的] and other barriers[障碍], Roberta creates an acclaimed music program in an area where many would have said it was impossible. Definitely a heart-warming movie.
这部电影展示了一个人的魄力和远见会对其他人产生多大的影响。
梅丽尔·斯特里普扮演的角色的现实原型是罗伯塔·瓜斯帕里——身为单亲妈妈的她搬到哈林区,当上了一名小提琴教师。罗伯塔克服了种族和其它障碍,在别人认为不可能的地方开展了一项颇受欢迎的音乐项目。这绝对是一部温馨感人的电影。
The Miracle Worker
奇迹创造者
(又译《海伦·凯勒》,1962)
Directed by Arthur Penn
Starring Anne Bancroft, Patty Duke
Anne Bancroft is awesome as Annie
Sullivan who uses “tough love” to get through to the deaf and blind Helen Keller played by Patty Duke.
Excellent portrayal[描写] of the importance of
perseverance[坚定不移]. Both Bancroft and Duke won an Academy Award for their performances.
安妮·班克罗夫特惟妙惟肖地扮演了安妮·沙利文一角——正是她用“残酷的爱”敲开了又聋又瞎的
海伦·凯勒(帕蒂·杜克饰)的心门。(这部电影)很好地展现了坚持不懈的重要性。班克罗夫和杜克凭借其表演双双赢得了奥斯卡奖。
Dead Poets Society注2
死亡诗社 (1989)
Directed by Peter Weir
Starring Robin Williams, Robert Sean Leonard, Ethan Hawke
Robin Williams gives an
awesome performance as an
unconventional English teacher in a very conventional private school. His love of poetry and his inspiring teaching
methods have a great impact on his students. The central message of the movie, to live life to the fullest every day, is not lost. Further, Williams’s poetry recitations[朗诵,背诵] are awe-
inspiring[使人惊叹的].
罗宾·威廉姆斯精彩地扮演了一位在一间极其传统的私立学校教书的非传统英语老师。他对诗歌的热爱以及他那鼓舞人心的教学方式给学生带来了巨大影响。电影的中心思想——充实地过好每一天——得到了完整体现。此外,威廉姆斯背诵诗句的场景发人深省。
Mr. Holland’s Opus 生命因你动听 (1995)
Directed by Stephen Herek
Starring Richard Dreyfuss, Glenne Headly
This memorable movie gives all teachers hope that they truly have an impact on their students. Richard Dreyfuss is wonderful as a musician/composer who must take a teaching job to support his family. In the end, Dreyfuss’s character realizes that he has had as much of an impact from his teaching as he would have as a composer.
这部难忘的电影让所有为人师者都看到了希望——他们确实能影响学生的一生。理查德·德莱弗斯成功地扮演了一位音乐家兼作曲家,因为要养家不得不接受一份教师工作。最后,德莱弗斯的角色意识到自己作为教师的影响力不比作为作曲家的影响力小。
注1:哈林区是纽约市的贫民区,位于曼哈顿的东北部,住有大量非裔美国人和西班牙人,为爵士乐中心,但被认为是白人不应该去的地方。
注2:又译《春风化雨》,电影原声选段详见CE:Teens 2007年7月号“口语角”。
