蹩脚英语

今天终于让自己看了一场电影。

追了无数的美剧之后，在我无聊的待业日子里，我甚至无法忍受超过四十分钟的剧情。

我试着看《疯狂美丽都》。

忍不住的快进。

《真爱无价》，我看了十分钟。

然而我知道这些是好的电影，从开始一个序幕，我就知道。

我却无法忍耐着看下去。

但是我看了完完整整的《Broken English》。

为了大龄女加法国男人？

为了纪念我曾经的偶遇？

为了我也有这么一个带着法国口音的小男人？

无论怎么样，看着这样一幕戏剧，不知道是该感慨戏如人生还是人生如戏。

在这深更半夜不堪为一种甜蜜又辛酸的折磨。

..这样一个女主角，只让你无法停止去比较这种相似处。

35岁，做着一份没有太大变化，天长日久的工作，身边的人纷纷陷入恋情和婚姻，自己的感情却频频失败，甚至找不到一个男友。

她神经质，漂亮，有一个无话不谈的闺蜜。

很难不陷于一些烂一夜情和相亲中。

偶有动心，不是烂情人就是男人对前女友余情未了。

开始痛恨和怀疑自己，觉得没有男人，没有人爱，简直就是自己一个人的错，天生的悲剧。

于是这个男人出场了。

好不好那天自己精心打扮，去出席一个聚会。

他要死不死是个法国男人，年轻，帅气，浪漫，不羁。。

英语说的蹩脚，angry和hungry都分不清。

可是偏这一口蹩脚的英语，带着要命性感的法国腔。。

好吧，我也想起mattieu来了。

还好这个男人不叫马修，叫朱利安。

朱利安短暂停留美国，要乘第二天一早的飞机回巴黎。

于是要求诺拉和他一起走。

诺拉自然惊恐不堪。

如何离开自己已经熟悉的一切而去跟随一段前途未明的感情。

朱利安独自离开了。

诺拉的生活又陷于了往常。

于是某一日，她终于忍无可忍，辞去工作，飞去巴黎。。

但是戏剧性的一幕出现了。

她丢失了朱利安留给她写有电话号码的纸条。。

她一日一日在巴黎闲晃，期待能够偶遇。

然而这城市如此之大，又如何在人群之中相遇？。。

她开始释然，享受这座城市。

然后，准备离开。

登上了去机场的巴士。

我不想再去分析这里面种种的细枝末节。

倒让我写成了一本滥情剧。

你若看下去，或许还会觉得沉闷无聊，剧情也不是十分浪漫。

女主角不是十分漂亮，男主角也不是十分的帅，巴黎的城市都是阴暗的天气，极非又暗的色调。

让人怀疑这是一个爱情剧还是悬疑凶杀片。

然而这正是一切的真实所在，没有过度渲染的浪漫。

有时对话经常有空白，那是生活无聊又正常的尴尬瞬间。

就是如此，你是仍会相信爱情，持有美好信仰去等待。

还是有时义无反顾，为了爱情疯狂一把，去改变这一成不变，令人厌倦又安全不已的生活。

你是要相信奇迹有时会发生，还是怀着生活及如此的绝望。

就在我这种怀疑中觉得电影就要如此结束的时候。

巴士停站，车门口一个抽烟的男人一晃而过，蹦上了车，坐在靠前的位子上。

就那么一瞬间，你就以确定，他就是你在寻找的男人，他就是朱利安。

幻想过千万遍的偶遇的场景，就那么平淡无奇的发生了。

镜头划过诺拉的脸，那一瞬间道尽种种情绪。

然而我就觉得她要放弃了。。

她还是走上了前去。

两人打过招呼，是尴尬的沉默。

在这种沉默之中，我几乎要失望了。

我看着男人的脸，抖动的腿，不知道他心里在想些什么。

他在想这个女人怎么在此出现，如何摆脱这个麻烦和困窘？

天哪。。

我几乎要后悔我为什么出现在这里。

可是男人站了起来，一把抓起女人的包袱，一把拉起她飞奔起来。

电影的最后，在一个咖啡馆，朱利安又抽起了烟，两个人依旧没有太多话语。

男人问：Would you stay with me for another drink?。。。

至此，这部电影没有任何惊天动地，甚至没有任何承诺和我爱你。

然而，不管爱情多么伤，我也希望你给我一个，说着蹩脚英语的男人，我们谈一场恋爱，管他明天又如何。

娜拉身材火辣的娜拉•怀尔德是美国纽约一家酒店客房服务和特殊服务部经理，专门处理疑难问题。

按说和人打交道应该是有丰富的实战经验，却在处理一个男电影演员入住酒店纠纷后把自己搭进去了，被客人免费体验了一把“一夜情”。

醒悟后打赌发誓不再和男人约会。

痴情的娜拉被消费妈妈出手相帮介绍朋友的儿子给她认识，却不想第一次约会就被这个男人前女友发现并醋意大发，男人落荒而逃，这让她沮丧到了极点。

说着蹩脚英语的朱利安百无聊赖的娜拉参加朋友的一个聚会，偶遇说着蹩脚英语的法国人朱利安，朱利安刚刚被女友摔掉，这让娜拉有了一点同病相怜的感觉，所以尽管朱利安有点粘人，但并不惹人烦。

娜拉又一次醉酒，早上醒来完好如初，第一次遇到个不以上床为目的男人和她约会，让娜拉对朱利安又多了几分好感。

朱利安的英语实在蹩脚，把“”我饿了”说成“我生气了”，让娜拉莫名其妙，也平添了几分乐趣，很快两人水到渠成自然而然的上了床。

不想两人在超市亲热被熟人撞到，娜拉一时尴尬情绪失控，犯了焦虑症，朱利安体贴的陪伴在她身边，让娜拉感动，但是却拒绝了朱利安提出的一起去法国巴黎的请求，两人最后一夜缠绵，朱利安飞回法国。

娜拉和闺蜜安吉拉朱利安的离去让娜拉抓狂，甚至把工作都辞了，实在无法忍耐，拉着闺蜜安吉尔一起飞到法国，不想刚到巴黎就和出租司机闹了个误会，出租司机祝她们找到幸福，结果她俩听成了“一根阴茎”，这法语也太她妈恶心了。

朱利安到了酒店住下后，娜拉才发现写有朱利安联系电话的字条不见了，各种方法都试过，无果。

安吉拉急着回纽约，娜拉要浏览一下巴黎留了下来。

法国男人果然喜欢搭讪美女，无论是在艺术馆还是在酒吧，随时可以遇到主动搭讪的男人，巴黎男人举止优雅，热情好客，幽默风趣。

几天的游览，娜拉心情大好，甚至忘记了寻找朱利安。

娜拉和朱利安娜拉坐在去机场的公交车上，还沉浸在游览巴黎的快乐中，却不知奇迹悄然而至，朱利安仿佛从天而降，活生生的出现在她面前，这真的应了中国那句老话“有心栽花花不开，无心插柳柳成荫”，两个有情人终于重逢，三言两语快刀斩乱麻的迅速消除疑虑和误解，开始了新的生活。

我终于失去了你演唱/赵传 填词/李宗盛当所有的人离开我的时候 你劝我要耐心等候并且陪我渡过生命中最长的寒冬 如此地宽容当所有的人靠紧我的时候 你要我安静从容似乎知道我有一颗永不安静的心 容易蠢动我终于让千百双手在我面前挥舞我终于拥有了千百个热情的笑容我终于让人群被我深深的打动我却忘了告诉你 你一直在我心中啊 我终于失去了你 在拥挤的人群中我终于失去了你 当我的人生第一次感到光荣啊 我终于失去了你 在拥挤的人群中我终于失去了你 当我的人生第一次感到光荣当四周的掌声如潮水一般的汹涌我见到你眼中伤心的泪光闪动当所有的人离开我的时候 你劝我要耐心等候并且陪我渡过生命中最长的寒冬 如此地宽容当所有的人靠紧我的时候 你要我安静从容似乎知道我有一颗永不安静的心 我容易蠢动我终于让千百双手在我面前挥舞我终于拥有了千百个热情的笑容我终于让人群被我深深的打动我却忘了告诉你 你一直在我心中啊 我终于失去了你 在拥挤的人群中我终于失去了你 当我的人生第一次感到光荣啊 我终于失去了你 在拥挤的人群中我终于失去了你 当我的人生第一次感到光荣啊 我终于失去了你 在拥挤的人群中我终于失去了你 当我的人生第一次感到光荣当四周的掌声如潮水一般的汹涌我见到你眼中伤心的泪光闪动

It was as close to perfect as any movie that I have watched recently. Some people would like to describe it as a love story, but I suppose a movie of female subjects should be more appropriate. It's different from traditional romantic comedy: more independent and more realistic. We can easily find the current problems faced by women, such as pressure from work, marriage, changes, confusion and loneliness. In Broken English, there is no complicated plot nor super star but it is full of natural and delicate emotion.Nora’s beauty is not absolute, but her feminine temperament is attractive. Nora got a Liberal Arts Degree, however she had been working in a hotel for six years. Work is not a problem for her, solving the problems is a clear principle for her. Love is important, but dispeling the confusion in her heart is equally important. Most women who under the pressure nowadays feel this way too; once they can not find a solution they get confused or even desperate.Nora was a romantic person and pursued perfect perception. But now she has turned out to be a little puppet who is out of control and lost her sense of proportion. She trusts men easily, then becomes more irritable and suspicious of love. Nora gets into a quandary about her life; she suddenly realizes that she is getting older and becoming the only single person in her circle of friends. Simple loneliness is a feeling,but deep longliness is poison. Long-term accumulation of loneliness makes Nora desperate. She is despairing of love; she is even despairing of herself. That is why she refused Julien’s kiss in the first place, but she can not prevent love from the depths of her heart. When Julien go back to France, Nora almost breaks down. She completely loses confidence and balance. All the low-key feelings jump off the screen.So she goes to France to find Julien. Perhaps Julien is only an excuse, and what Nora really wants to find is a new life or a new start. Finally she finds her dim love on the subway which is a profoundly unreal scene in this movie, although it will hardly come true in real life, but it is beautiful. This romantic ending is not prepared for Nora, it is prepared for all the people who live in despair. It gives the inspiration and appeasement to women who are living in big cities facing similar problems. Broken English combined a realistic style with the fantasy in people’s mind. The female director of Broken English, Zoe Cassavetes, uses an exquisite perspective to express the loneliness and anxiety that exists in women’s lives.The movie includes a kind of comedy and romance, but the humor or laughter here is real. This reproduction of Nora in real life just meets my soul.

一部拍的很真实的电影，浪漫的平实且生活，小小的幸福和失落都被女演员表达的很到位，一部值得在午后冲上一杯奶茶窝在沙发里静静看的电影我喜欢

情关唱:陈淑桦歌/曲：小虫编制：苍雨英雄美人情關難留是什麼時代什麼樣的人才能完成這個夢我本有心我本有情奈何沒有了天愛恨在泪中間聚散轉眼成煙秋風落葉愁滿樓兒女情長誰捉弄這次孤行沒人相送看來只有揮揮衣袖飄呀飄呀飄的風吹的是誰的痛欠山欠水欠你的最多但願來世有始有終一部商业美片，却读出小虫这首歌的味道。

有些人在一起是为了不孤单，而有些人却期待奇迹。

同是焦虑患者，同是傻傻的奇迹期待者，Nora的无奈似乎成了自己生活（未来）的写照。

她是能把握任何机会的人。

那真心的人呢，不带一点欺骗，坦白待你的那个傻傻的千古愁呢。

我们总抱怨人不合适，机缘难求，不得勉强。

我们是完美主义？

至少是感性的爱情守洁者，更可能是美好愿景的守墓者。

才子佳人，英雄美人大抵是文学家渴如此美事，付诸笔端：即可欺骗自己又能惹妒他人，何乐不为。

千古如此。

好吧，说句积极的话：可能某个时代的某对果真圆了千古人的梦，只能称作梦的梦。

西递愁潮的空气，思折的小巷，惹痛的微风又是怎样的注目这独行者。

谁说孤独的人没人相送。

挥挥衣袖，把我的愁肠也带走。

你很惊讶，这世界不同的国家，不同的肤色，不同语言的大龄女青年单着的相似心理。

拒绝相亲，但最后还是会去；在相亲网站上填写资料，发现符合的人选越来越少，终于有一天会“not found”；想要约会，但没有约出去的人啊；想要结婚，但没有可以结婚的人啊。

母亲在耳朵边如出一辙地叨叨，不是没有男人，而是选择太多，不是没有可以结婚的人，她总会看中一个女婿，但女儿就是无所谓。

总是遇人不淑，不是结婚的，不是有女朋友的，不是刚分手还没缓过来的，就是搭都不想搭理的人“Men hate me”，她对闺蜜说，你对你母亲说“我已经不抱希望了”。

一个人做面膜，一个人做操，也许孤独。

不知道怎么跟一个男人相处，总感觉突兀；有焦虑症，一样地；不相信但还是觉得可能、也许“只有跟一个男人上了床，他才会爱你”；很神奇别人怎么总能走到一起，相爱、结婚，他们说是因为孤独，其实你也相信，相信了就是相信自己总还是不同，标新立异地期待一场奇迹。

生活处在一个地方，连自己对自己都抱怨，早知道巫术一类的都是哄小孩的，却还是被一两句话骗去，回过头也知道自己所有的心情都在脸上，但那时，那些哄钱的话都是玉露琼浆。

最后如果还残留一点希望，就注定会到逃离到另一个地方。

对新文化一脸崇拜，对那里生活的人无理由相信。

还好，这个世界没有那么多坏人。

不愿意知道，在一起的人也会遭遇情感危机；也是不愿意相信，那些看着相爱的人可能刚刚吵过架；依稀发现自己也有些魅力，居然也能遇到男人的搭讪。

生活似乎可以开始美好。

说着蹩脚英语的巴黎男人，在终于决定是真的不抱希望了的时候，忽然就在面前。

她决定赌一把，我想。

为什么上帝安排来的是一个说着蹩脚英语的男人而不是说着和自己一样话的男人呢？

因为我们终究是因为不了解而在一起啊。

（没关系，剧透了更适合看）

it's the first weekend i spend one hour and half to finish this movie which i left midway several weeks ago. very romantic. i poured myself a glass of water and began to reminisce the acquaintance i've made with Chris.the first time i saw him was in the librabry lounge. he asked me whether i'd like a cup of coffee, and i said chocolate. that's the way we found language partners in our university. i pasted up a little affiche on the outsidewall of the Friendship Shop looking for a language partner who speaks english and should be a native speaker. once he introduced himself as a french i was surprised. anyway he's european and spoke english. i was glad to have a friend. you know university life is not always full and most of my spare time was spent with those people. i was grateful that this university offered me such opportunity to enrich my experience with a variety of people, so i tried to make use of this resource.hey,what's your name? kendra, i know it's hard to pronounce it in french...well,no no, it's alright. (and he tried to say it in french, it still souded queer.) we talked in agreement. and soon it's lanch time. i remember it should be a saturday or sunday, for Semmiss was not busy, but still with a number of students. he bought me a sandwich and i asked for a glass of juice, so the same with him. it's the first time i took a liking for the sandwiches in Semmiss. it's very cosy cafe; most foreign students especially europeans found it similiar to that at home. he said the cheese was good and also the beef, and taught me that if i found the the two peices of bread piling up together too thick, i couldn take off one and it still tastes good. i was interested in paris, and he told me paris women were in dominant. the only thing i found was that he's very thougtful with women and chivalrous. i spent more than half a day with him, and it's the first time i realized that i can talk with a frechman with fluent english.i went to his dorm one night. he showed me his music and the movies he liked. 2046 was the one he mentioned. anyway as he sat so close to me and habitually put his hand on my thigh i felt uneasy. shortly i said i should go. i used to complain to him that i couldn't sleep well in the dormitry, so he said i could have his key and any time i came to get a sleep he could drop away. as i fell into an embarrassed silence not knowing how to refuse, we were both at pause. after that i never went to his dorm again, but he still called me sometimes. i scarcely helped him in Chinese. and not after long he moved off campus and rented an apartment near Price Market. he invited me to his new apartment but i always had my excuses. he knew many things about women, even the strange relationship between women and the changing gravitational force of moon and also astrology.i still remember once we met by conincidence at the door of the library and he held me aside and said, he'd checked on the internet and knew that next year would be a difficult year for me. he told me to be careful. the fact proved that i really had a close shave with catastrophe during the next year. then we sat outside the library and chatted about something unmeaningful. that's a most beautiful autumn day. i truly deeply impressed by his expression of "i'd like to keep sunshine in my eyes". later we met less and even null. his name was Christopher. i suggested that if he'd like "克里斯" was a cool Chinese name, so the other day he showed me his passport. it was "克里斯" on it. i smiled.it's really a long time before we met again. when we first made acquaintance with each other, i used to run into him three times in a day, which he said was indeed lot or luck. the last time i saw him was the spring of the next year. i came back from a korean student's home and rode on the campus. outside the football field we saw each other. i knew i was kind of avoiding him for quite a long time, but soon i realised this was the last time we met. i was graduating and he's also moving somewhere else. he said maybe he's going to Xinjiang, where there're a lot of beautiful girls. we both laughed. he worked with Phillips. and we lost contact after that. he didn't show up at my graduation ceremony with flowers. later i left Peking...

女人到了30岁，如果还是单身，都会开始变得神经质起来。

有的人选择乐观地神经质，有的人则选择抑郁痛苦地面对它。

bj是前者，norah应该就是后者吧。

看bj，你应该是开开心心的或者捧腹大笑。

看这部电影，如果你单身，如果你也是那个"唯一"的单身。

那么，小心被他刺到。

norah其实就在显现出那个你。

她是漂亮的，但是只是一个人独自美丽。

她是那么渴望被爱，虽然她很想掩饰这点。

她是情感丰富的女子，但是很多时候她不知道该怎么维系一段关系。

让人看得很心疼但是还好，她最后有个好的结局

Nora妈妈安排的相亲男人对Nora说，你真的很nice。

这在美国是一个半褒半贬的词；在纽约基本就是个贬义词了。

天真的Nora以为约会的演员喝醉时说的话是真的，还跟妈妈炫耀说她有了新男友，岂知他只是一夜风流而已（在纽约真的还有这么纯情的美国女生么）；在她失望地离开后，Nora好朋友的老公Mark说，Nora很好，就是不懂男人，男人是需要挑战的。

Audrey说，你是说男人都喜欢像我这样的bitch么，Mark边笑边说是的。

几天前一个年纪大的同事问我modern dating是什么样。

我觉得这就是modern dating，男人拼命想把女人灌醉，说些夸张的情话，然后上床； 如果还有好感，两个人再都玩些游戏，给彼此些挑战。

所以当Nora遇到非典型的Julian，她以为这不过是另一个想把我哄上床的家伙罢了。

于是Julian想亲Nora的时候被她避开，她不明白为什么Julian不停说跟她在一起的时光很快乐，她对没有跟她上床的Julian留下来并和她共度一天白天的时光感到十分费解。

在她焦虑症发作跟Julian发脾气后，以为Julian已经被吓跑了；第二天发现Julian却在台阶上等她---她马上开心的不得了。

那个在酒吧的Paul说的很好，你没什么问题Nora，你寻找的和别人不一样，但你得先找到自己才行。

Nora在地铁上远远看到Julian的时候，有一瞬间，我以为她决定放手了。

虽然后来两人跑出地铁看的很过瘾，总觉得什么地方不对。

或许期望主角的个性在一句话后就改变还是不太现实吧。

Nora还是一个过于nice的人。

至于她和Julian是real love还是法国版的modern dating， 我就不得而知了。

P.S.,我觉得任何不受酒精催眠的白天发生的sex的场景都很美，看的时候真心为主角欢喜，比如这部电影，比如Meet Joe Black。
