Persuasion《劝导》1995
Persuasion is a mature Jane Austen film, more subdued and grown-up than Pride and Prejudice. The camera work is decidedly unstuffy at certain points. Also refreshing: Amanda Root in the main role. Unlike the conventionally pretty Gwenyth Paltrow and Keira Knightly, she is a woman of modest looks (which is actually better for the source material). This movie is a beautiful work of art that both pokes fun at the pretensions of nobility and also contains one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful love stories of all time.
影片《劝导》改编自简·奥斯汀晚期的作品，比《傲慢与偏见》更忧郁、更适合成年人。显然，在某些方面，影片并不那么拘泥。令人耳目一新的还有：阿曼达·鲁特担纲主角。不同于格温妮丝·帕特洛和凯拉·奈特莉这类传统意义上的漂亮迷人，阿曼达外表朴素端庄（这实际上更贴合原著形象）。这部电影是一部出色的艺术作品，既嘲讽了贵族的虚伪做作，也讲述了文学史上最令人心碎的一个美丽爱情故事。
▲ 预告片
None of us want to be in calm waters all our lives.
我们没有人想一辈子都平淡无奇。
All the privilege I claim for my own sex and it is not very enviable. You need not covet. It is that of loving longest when all hope is gone.
我所说的女性超越男性的地方没什么值得羡慕，也无需渴望。因为那是了无希望之时仍无法自拔的爱。
I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone forever.
我无法再沉默。我必须通过这种我力所能及的方式向您表达。您深深打动了我的灵魂。我很痛苦，但又心怀希望。告诉我，我没有太迟，这珍贵的感觉还没有消逝。
I have loved none but you.
除了你我没爱过任何人。
I tried to forget you. I thought I had.
我试着忘记你。我以为我忘了。
When you make decision, you must stick with it. There’s no going back.
当你做了决定，就要坚持下去。没有回头路。
