影評(píng)鑒賞   對(duì)這部影片的評(píng)價(jià)，曾經(jīng)有一句話說(shuō)它是 A passionate journey into the darkest secrets of love, betrayal and the unbreakable bonds of blood. 這句話絕好的概括了影片的主題。

小編感言    Legends of the fall 沒(méi)能奪得奧斯卡和金球獎(jiǎng)的真正原因 

 

影片對(duì)白

O'Banion: Kenneth. Watch this. Go on, go on and get Tynert.

Isabel II: I think you missed a bump, Stab.

Stab: (says something in an Indian language)

Tristan: Who taught you how to drive anyway?

Tristan: Jesus!

Man1: Sir! We have information that you're transporting goods in violation of the Volstead Act.

Tristan: If you mean a case of Irish whiskey for my father, I am.

Man1: I have to ask you to give it up.

Tristan: He'll be a bit disappointed. No!

Man1: Jesus.

O'Banion the younger:Hold him down. 

O'Banion the older: Let's get out of here, John P.

Tristan: And the one who shot off his gun?

Alfred: He was... reprimanded.

Tristan: And the O'Banions?

Alfred: Nothing. You have tolet it go, Tristan. It was a terrible, tragic accident. Tristan, listen to me. You let this go now.You got in over your head.

妙語(yǔ)佳句，活學(xué)活用

1. Hold him down.

把一個(gè)人按住要怎么說(shuō)？就是hold one down。比如一群人開(kāi)玩笑，要把某個(gè)人按住了癢癢他，就可以說(shuō)：Hold him down!

2. plead guilty

“服罪，承認(rèn)罪行”的意思。這是一個(gè)法律術(shù)語(yǔ)。在嚴(yán)格的法律用語(yǔ)中，可以說(shuō)一個(gè)人 plead guilty 或 plead not guilty，但不能用 plead innocent。然而在非法律文章中 plead innocent 卻有廣泛的使用。我們來(lái)看一個(gè)例子：

Former NBA and Virginia star Ralph Sampson has agreed to plead guilty to mail fraud and serve two months in jail.
前NBA球星、弗吉尼亞球星拉爾夫·辛普森同意服罪，因郵件欺詐他將入獄兩月。

3. serve 30 days

“入獄服刑30天?！比缟侠?，拉爾夫·辛普森要 serve two months in jail。

4. let it go

“事情已經(jīng)如此，接受這個(gè)事實(shí)”吧！ 例如：Susannah has married a millionaire. You have to let it go.

5. You got in over your head.

Over one's head 的意思是 to a position higher than one's head。這里 Alfred 的意思是Tristan 做得出格了，got in a position he can't handle。

地頭蛇O'Banions兄弟為了保證自己販賣私酒的利益，不惜以武力和權(quán)勢(shì)威脅小酒販子Tristan。他們有國(guó)會(huì)和警察撐腰。當(dāng)他們誤殺Isabel II后，不但沒(méi)受到任何懲罰，還把Tristan以販賣私酒的名義送進(jìn)了監(jiān)獄?？梢?jiàn)社會(huì)的黑暗。
