影视导读: 电影《怦然心动》是一部由罗伯·莱纳执导的动机很棒的家庭电影,由玛德琳·卡罗尔、卡兰·麦克奥利菲等主演。它将你置于一种青涩温暖的、懵懂有趣的,又充满人文关怀的氛围中,直到最后给你一个看上去也并不那么不靠谱的美好…影片诉及了很多关于肤浅空虚的资本家和清贫欢乐的梦想家的对比,处处流露出生活的智慧和生命的色彩。
There are moments in adolescence when your feelings about romance turn on a dime. Maybe it’s hormonal[hɔː’məʊnl]. The girl you thought was a pest becomes the object of your dreams. The boy you’ve had a crush on for years begins to seem like a jerk. The timing is off. Sometimes you can look back half a lifetime and see how things might have happened differently if you hadn’t been so stupid. Rob Reiner’s “Flipped” does the looking.
Here is a lovely movie about a girl who has adored a boy ever since he moved into the neighborhood in the second grade. She even likes his smell, and it is true we cannot love someone who isn’t aromatic[ˌærə’mætɪk] to our hearts. All through grade school and into high school, she pursues him; they’re like the runners in Keats’ “Ode on a Grecian Urn” who pursue each other for eternity without ever drawing closer. In Reiner’s film, they flip and start running in the other direction.
Madeline Carroll plays Juli Baker, who was determined to get Bryce Loski to like her when they were kids, but in eighth grade has turned her attention to more urgent matters, like sparing the life of the beautiful sycamore [‘sɪkəmɔː(r)] tree in her front yard. It is threatened with being chopped down by the forces of evil, and she climbs it and won’t come down. That shows some character, muses Bryce’s grandfather Chet . If he were Bryce, he’d notice a girl like that. Bryce begins to catch on.
There’s a screenplay device by Reiner and Andrew Scheinman, based on the novel by Wendelin Van Draanan, that could be arduous [‘ɑːdjuəs] but works here because it has been thought through. The key events in the film are seen from both points of view: Bryce’s and Juli’s. Teenagers often lose the beat emotionally, and these two need John Philip Sousa. There isn’t trickery: The scenes happen as they seem to, and not in alternate universes. But they seem so different, depending on who is seeing them.
There’s one of those events so beloved by teenage girls in which they can exact excruciating [ɪk’skruːʃieɪtɪŋ] embarrassment on boys while seeming to be blithely[‘blaɪðli] unaware. The boys are auctioned off to the girls as lunch room partners to raise money for charity. Yeah, that’s what a guy wants, to stand onstage while the most patronizing teacher in the school handles the bidding. Of course, it all goes tragically wrong for Juli and Bryce, but for what seems like different reasons.
Reiner sets most of the movie in 1963 (his classic “Stand by Me,” is set a few years earlier, in 1959), and I don’t think it’s just for nostalgia[nɒ’stældʒə]. In a way, that’s the last year of American teenage innocence, before the ’60s took hold. Madeline Carroll and Callan McAuliffe, who both look teeth-achingly vulnerable, are sincere and pure and wholesome, and are characters we believe can be hurt. Some of today’s teenagers are more wounded and cynical than their parents ever were. And for some of them sex is not an undiscovered country.
Maybe what makes “Flipped” such a warm entertainment is how it re-creates a life we wish we’d had when we were 14. That’s true for adults, and also I suspect true for some 14-year-olds. In a way the audience flips, too.
