時間過得很快,新冠疫情已經即將屆滿三年,在這期間許多與公眾有關的事物都或多或少受到相當大的影響,例如:電影。
Bad Education 中譯:壞教育 就是其中一個例子,由於全球疫情的影響,這本該在 2020 年上映的電影,除了台灣之外,在其他地區都改以線上平台播放,這影響了實體電影院的票房收入。
這部電影由眾所週知的 金剛狼 休傑克曼 Hugh Jackman 所主演,以真實發生在美國教育界的詐騙事件為主軸,由 休傑克曼 詮釋整個詐騙過程,並且,他突破以往形象以極為出色的演技獲得諸多好評,甚至有媒體評以此片是他從影以來的代表作。
有興趣的朋友,可自行於網路上搜尋這部電影的付費播放平台,欣賞他精湛的演出。
而另一個有意思的是這部電影的片尾曲 White Flag,這是英國歌手 蒂朵 Dido 在 2003 年發表的歌曲,這位女歌手是一名獲得全英音樂獎「最佳英國女歌手」、世界音樂獎「全球最暢銷流行女歌手」「全球最暢銷成人抒情歌手」「全英最暢銷藝人」「全英最暢銷流行/搖滾女歌手」頭銜並曾入圍格萊美「最佳流行女歌手」的天后級歌手。
而這首 白旗 正是這位創作歌手極為轟動的代表作之一。
“White Flag“
I know you think that I shouldn’t still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn’t say it, well I’d still have felt it
Where’s the sense in that?
I promise I’m not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
But I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I’m in love and always will be
I know I left too much mess and destruction
To come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can’t talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of “it’s over”
Then I’m sure that that makes sense
I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I’m in love and always will be
And when we meet
Which I’m sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I’ll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I’ve moved on….
I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I’m in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I’m in love and always will be
I will go down with this ship
And I won’t put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I’m in love and always will be
好的電影與好的歌曲,希望你、我生命中的一切都美好。
