What would you do if you were given the chance to be reborn? In real life, we can’t do this, but the sci-fi movie Alita: Battle Angel gives us a glimpse of what it would be like if we could. In the movie, Alita, a robot girl, is given a chance to rediscover herself and the world around her.
如果有机会重生,你会做些什么呢?在现实生活中,我们无法做到这一点,但科幻电影《阿丽塔:战斗天使》让我们得以一窥自己重生后的样子。电影中,机械女孩阿丽塔获得了一个重新认识自己和周遭世界的机会。
The action-packed film hit Chinese mainland cinemas on Feb 22. It was adapted from a manga series called Battle Angel Alita, also known as Gunnm (literally “gun dream”), which was created by Japanese artist Yukito Kishiro.
这部动作大片已于2月22日登陆中国院线。电影改编自日本漫画家木城雪户创作的系列漫画《铳梦》。
The film’s producer James Cameron found Alita’s story very attractive. “The main character is this little girl that everybody kind of ignores. She’s got such a heroic heart on the inside,” the filmmaker told US-based website Medium.
该电影的制片人詹姆斯·卡梅隆认为阿丽塔的故事充满吸引力。“主角是这位所有人都有所忽视的小女孩。她内心勇敢无惧,”这位电影制作人在接受美国网站Medium 采访时如此表示。
Waking with a pair of massive eyes, Alita finds she has no memory of who she was in the 26th century. She is found by Ido, a compassionate cyber-doctor who realizes the extraordinary power in the abandoned cyborg.
拥有一双大眼睛的阿丽塔醒来后,发现自己身处26世纪,失去了记忆。善良的数码医生依德收留了阿丽塔,并发现这个被遗弃的半机械人拥有超凡的力量。
They are like father and daughter, because Ido tries to protect Alita from her mysterious history. But deadly forces allow her to discover unique fighting abilities within herself. Alita becomes vital to saving her friends, family and the world that she has come to love.
他们俩就像父女,依德努力保护着阿丽塔,让她远离神秘的过往。但邪恶势力却让她发现了自己独特的战斗能力。阿丽塔成为了拯救自己亲友以及她所爱的世界的关键。
In the film, Alita has no memory at all. She doesn’t know whom she is or where she is. And she can barely walk. But she’s curious about the world and uses her sensitivity to investigate everything around her.
电影中,阿丽塔没有任何记忆。她不知道自己是谁,身处何方。甚至走路也勉勉强强。但她对世界充满了好奇,用感觉来探索身边的一切。
“When I watch her discover things, it’s like I’m discovering them for the first time and she’s just moving through it, completely led by her heart,” Rosa Salazar, the actress who plays Alita, told Vice. “It is a good way to explore the world.”
“当我看着她探索事物时,感觉就像我第一次发现这些东西一样。她完全听从自己的内心来经历这一切,”饰演阿丽塔的女演员罗莎·萨拉扎尔在接受Vice采访时表示。“这是个探索世界的绝妙方式。”
However, in the eyes of its director Robert Rodriguez, the maker of the crime movie Sin City, the most important thing is that Alita thinks of herself as insignificant at first but comes to learn that she is vital.
曾执导犯罪电影《罪恶之城》的导演罗伯特·罗德里格兹认为,影片最重要之处在于阿丽塔一开始认为自己无关紧要,但却慢慢意识到,其实自己才是至关重要的。
“It’s a message for everyone today, that inside each one of us is the ability to make a difference,” Rodriguez told The Hollywood Reporter. “We just have to find that in a day and age when we all have to make a difference. Alita embodies that.”
“这部电影给大家传递了这样一个信息,我们每个人都拥有与众不同的能力,”罗德里格兹在接受《好莱坞报道》采访时表示。“这需要我们在自己身处的这个需要做出改变的时代中去发现,阿丽塔便诠释了这一点。”
