【文化常识】《乱世佳人》
Gone with the Wind
《乱世佳人》
Gone with the Wind is a 1939 American epic historical romance film adapted from Margaret
Mitchell's Pulitzer-winning 1936 novel. It was directed by Victor Fleming. Set in the 19th-
century American South, the film tells the story of Scarlett O'Hara, the strong-willed daughter
of a Georgia plantation owner, from her romantic pursuit of Ashley Wikes, who is married to
another kind-hearted woman, Malanie Hamilton, to her marriage to Rhett Butler.
《乱世佳人》是根据玛格丽特·米切尔 1936 年获普利策奖的同名小说改变的一部美国
史诗式爱情电影,于 1939 年上映。影片由维克多·弗莱明导演,以 19 世纪的美国南方
背景,讲述了佐治亚州种植园主的意志坚强的女儿斯嘉丽·奥哈拉的故事,她狂热地爱
上了阿希礼·威尔克斯,但阿希礼选择了另一个善良的姑娘梅兰妮,斯嘉丽最终嫁给了
白瑞德。
The film shows incisively and vividly how Americans struggle in adversity, the pursuit of
personal independence, dignity, love, optimism and enterprising national spirit. Scarlett, the
little woman grown up in a middle-class family, has experienced a series of huge difficulties
and setbacks, like civil war, the reconstruction, the death of daughter, losing her beloved ones
and so on. But she seldom shows timidity and overcomes the adversities again and again. The
line "After all, tomorrow is another day." is the best expression of her optimism to strive for a
better life. The leading role Vivien Leigh shows gorgeous, capricious, elegant characteristics
of Scarlett perfectly.
这部影片把美国人在逆境中奋斗,追求个人独立,尊严和爱情,永远乐观进取的民族
精神表现得淋漓尽致。斯嘉丽,这个中产阶级家庭出身的弱女子,历经内战乱火、家
园重建、爱女夭折、失去挚爱等一连串巨大的困难和挫折,但她很少胆怯,一次次战
胜逆境。“毕竟,明天又是新的一天。”这句台词就是她乐观自强人生的最好诠释。女
主角费雯·丽把斯嘉丽那任性但不失高雅华贵的气质展现得淋漓尽致。
The film received positive reviews upon its release in December 1939. At the 12th Academy
Awards held in 1940, it received ten Academy Awards from thirteen nominations, including
wins for Best Picture, Best Director (Victor Fleming), Best Actress (Vivien Leigh).
该影片自 1939 年上映以来得到了积极的反响。在 1940 年第 12 届奥斯卡颁奖典礼上,
它获得了 13 个奖项提名,并最终获得了 10 个奖项,其中包括最佳影片奖、最佳导演
奖(维克多·弗莱明)和最佳女演员奖(费雯·丽)。
