  当年下载在电脑上看的时候是分上下两部的  Back when I downloaded it to watch on my computer, it was split into two parts 而这个导演剪辑版就是把两部合成一部长达四个半小时多 This director's cut combines the two films into a single, four-and-a-half-hour-long film 增加了一段黑白动画讲石井御莲成为杀手的成长经历 A black-and-white animated sequence has been added depicting  O-Ren Ishii  journey to becoming a killer 剪掉了第一部关于新娘女儿活着的消息和前情提要 I cut out the first segment about the bride's daughter being alive and the recap from the second segment 在青叶屋的武打动作戏跟周星驰导演的《功夫》里斧头帮打斗场面感觉很是类似 The action scenes in Aoba-ya feel very similar to those in Stephen Chow's film 《Kung Fu》 查了一下发现武术动作指导都是袁和平，两片相隔一年不到 I looked it up and found that Yuen Woo-ping was the martial arts choreographer for both films, which were released a year apart 《唐伯虎点秋香》里的夺命书生就是白眉 The Deadly Scholar in 《Flirting Scholar》is Bai Mei 铸刀的服部半藏就是小时候看的《风云雄霸天下》里的雄霸 And Hattori Hanzō, who forged the sword for the heroine, is the same Xiong Ba from 《Feng Yun: Xiong Ba Conquers the World》, which I...

 第一次看还是读书的时候 I first watched it back at school 不记得是用百度影音还是快播下载看的 I don't remember if I downloaded it using Baidu Video or Qvod 今天去电影院重温了  Today I went to the movie theater to watch it again 改编于斯蒂芬金1982年小说 《丽塔海华丝与肖申克监狱的救赎》 Based on Stephen King's 1982 novel  《Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption》 要么忙着去生，要么忙着去死 Get busy living or get busy dying 十多年过去了 安迪 俺依然是自己牢笼里的囚徒 More than a decade has passed  Andy And I’m still a prisoner in my own cage

无官一身轻 Without an official position, he’s all smiles 98抗洪 1998 Flood Relief 豆腐渣工程，是王八蛋工程 A shoddy project is a piece of crap 访美推进加入世贸组织 Visit to the U.S. to Join the WTO 不管前面是地雷阵还是万丈深渊 我都将一往无前 义无反顾 鞠躬尽瘁 死而后已 Whether I face a minefield or a bottomless abyss ahead, I will press forward without hesitation, devote myself wholeheartedly to the cause, and continue until my dying breath

  在电影院看了点映，将近三个小时  I saw an advance screening at the movie theater, it was nearly three hours long 诺兰凭借奥德赛进入全球票房前三导演，仅次于卡梅隆和斯皮尔伯格 With The Odyssey, Nolan has become one of the top three directors globally in terms of box office revenue, trailing only Cameron and Spielberg 奥德赛的意思就是一段漫长的冒险流浪旅程 The Odyssey refers to a long journey of adventure and wandering 暴力木马计可以摧毁特洛伊城，英雄战胜了敌人，英雄又是复仇者的敌人，那他还是英雄吗？ The Trojan Horse strategy can destroy the city of Troy, The hero defeated the enemy, yet the hero is also the enemy of the avenger—so is he still a hero? 奥德修斯回家终复仇求婚者，新的秩序又没有建立 Odysseus finally returned home and took revenge on the suitors, but a new order was not established 他们是不是也要循环复仇？ Are they going to seek revenge in a never-ending cycle, too? 你不是在离家出发，就是在回家的路上 You’re either leaving home or on your way back 荷马温柔岁月，诺兰温暖牛马 Homer's Gentle Years, Nolan Warmed the Worker

 1958.2.4-2026.7.23 日本推理小说作家东野圭吾大肠癌逝世 Japanese mystery novelist Keigo Higashino dies of colon cancer 看过电影版：嫌疑人X的献身和白夜行，嫌疑人X的献身电影有日韩中三个版本 I've seen the movie versions: Suspect X and Into The White Night . 'The Devotion of Suspect X' has three versions from Japan, Korea, and China 世界有两样东西不可直视，一是太阳，二是人心 There are two things in the world you can't look at directly: the sun and the human heart 有时候，一个人只要好好活着，就足以拯救某个人 Sometimes, just living well as a person is enough to save someone

  1.整部片看下来全程未笑，但观众的小朋友有在哈哈大笑，说明起码是个合格的作品, 可能是上年纪了，总是用过去的作品衡量今天的作品，比如凌凌漆，审死官，苏乞儿…… I didn't laugh at all throughout the whole movie, but the kids in the audience were laughing out loud, which at least shows it's a decent work. Maybe it's because I'm getting older, I always compare today's works with ones from the past, like From Beijing With Love, Justice, My Foot , and  King of Beggars . 2.一些片段能让你想起他过去的表演，触动你怀念那个港片神仙打架的年代，怀念那个欣欣向荣的时代。 Some clips can remind you of his past performances, making you nostalgic for that era of epic showdowns in Hong Kong films, and for that thriving, vibrant time. 3.不能参加世界杯，就让大家在电影里做一下梦吧。 If we can't participate in the World Cup, let's let everyone have a little dream in the movies.

 先是被认成修空调的  First mistaken for an air conditioning repairman 后是被当成开出租车的 then taken for a cab driver 和小学同学一起吃桃姐卤的牛舌 Sharing a plate of braised beef tongue with classmates 食物是情感的载体 Food is the vessel of emotion 不管是什么身份，生老病死不止是桃姐 Regardless of one's station in life, all must face birth, ageing, sickness and death 年纪大了感触就更深了 With advancing years, this truth becomes ever more profound

麻将四个人凑一桌 Four mahjong players make a table 这个世界只有两种人：不是骗子，就是傻子 There are only two kinds of people in this world: either they're swindlers, or they're fools 你想做哪一种？ Which one do you want? 这个世界上没有一个人知道 自己要的是什么啦 Not a soul in this world knows what it truly desires 每个人都在等着别人告诉他 该怎么做他就跟着怎么做 Everyone waits for others to tell them what to do, then follows suit 香港把马子分享给兄弟 Hong Kong shares his girlfriend with his mates 安吉拉把凯子分享给姐妹 Angela shares her boyfriend with her girlfriends 香港被她们操了，然后哭了 Hong Kong has been raped , then wept

时空恋旅人 不仅仅是爱情，更是父子情 About Time are not just about love, they're about family 同一穿越题材 时间旅行者的妻子 Same travelling theme The Time Traveller's Wife 时光倒叙的 恋恋笔记本 The Notebook of Time Rewind   三部影片女主都是同一演员 瑞秋·麦克亚当斯 All three films feature the same actress Rachel McAdams Reminds me of looking at yellowed photos as a kid 你我都是时间的旅行者 是向前 而不是时光倒流 You and I are time travellers  It's forward  Not backward in time

  岁月无声呀 The years are silent

 剧版叫贫嘴张大民的幸福生活 小时候看过，印象就是挤一起睡在有树的床上 It's a TV series called  The Happy Life of Talkative Zhang Damin I saw it when I was a kid, and I remember sleeping in a bed with a tree 幸福生活的标准是什么？ 没事偷着乐 What are the criteria for a happy life? Steal Happiness 九十年代广大农村老百姓的生活显然没张大民幸福 其实幸福生活就是苦中作乐的生活态度 好死不如赖活着 In the 1990s, the lives of the rural people were obviously not as happy as Zhang Damin In fact, a happy life is an attitude of enjoying life in the midst of suffering Better to die than to live Live like an animal 年纪越来越来大了 纯粹的东西越来越少了 I'm getting older and older There's less and less of the real thing

活人也需要破地狱 The living need to break hell too 中国有句古话：死者为大 There is an old Chinese saying that the dead are the greatest 也就是人死才会放下宽恕 It's also called the death of a human being to let go of forgiveness 也就是说破地狱只是活着的人的自我和解 Which means that hell-breaking is just self-reconciliation for the living 父权在，不平等就在，地狱就在，怎么破？ When patriarchy is there, inequality is there, hell is there, how do you break it? 他人即地狱 Hell is other people

为什么电影是黑白的? 导演：来自于对祖母的生活年代的记忆。 Why is the film in black and white? Director: From the memory of my grandmother's life 结尾女主没有私奔，而是选择了去投票 我们紧握选票，就像紧握情书。 Instead of eloping at the end, the heroine chooses to go to the polls We hold on to the ballot paper like a love letter      有意思的点是母女的对话，父子的对话。    女儿觉得母亲应该反抗父亲的家暴，   可当女儿被结婚对象家暴时没 反抗一样，   正如母亲和她一样年轻时。 躺床上的老父亲告诉儿子打老婆给教训就行， 但不能一直打。  这潜意识就是家暴是正常，这就是观念。 The interesting points are the dialogue between mother and daughter, and father and son The daughter feels that her mother should rebel against her father's domestic violence But when the daughter doesn't feel the same way when she's being domestically abused by the man she's married to Just as the mother did when she was as young as she was The old father in bed tells the son to just beat his wife to teach her a lesson      没人保证不会遇人不淑，靠道德人品看运气。  社会要进步，就要有新的观念，打破旧的观念。 No one guarantees that you won't meet a bad person, depending on mo...

   有人的地方就有江湖    有江湖的地方就有恩怨 Where there are people, there are lakes Where there's a lake, there's a grudge     说起金庸就的不能不提琼瑶，同样是大作家，评价却不一样 琼瑶有两次婚姻，被骂小三，但不会骂金庸小三 金庸结过三次婚，抛弃第三个老婆和服务员在一起 同样是私德男女却是不同的  Speaking of Louis Cha on the can't not mention Qiong Yao, the same is a great writer, evaluation is not the same! Qiong Yao has two marriages, was scolded mistress, but will not scold Louis Cha mistress! Louis Cha  has been married three times, abandoned the third wife and waiter together The same private morality is different for men and women 男性是主体 女性是客体 男性凝视着女性 从古至今依然如此 The man is the  Leading role  The woman is the  supporting role The man gazes at the woman Throughout the ages

  2024年诺贝尔文学奖给了韩国作家韩江 她的作品《素食者》开篇 感受一下写作风格 In 2024, the Nobel Prize for Literature was awarded to Korean writer Han Kang Here's the beginning of her book 《The Vegetarian》 Get a feel for the writing style 2024年美国大选前总统特朗普二次当选 2024 U.S. Election Re-elects Former President Trump 前者代表了科学艺术，决定今天我们生活便利 The former represents science and art, we have such a convenient life today because of the invention of electricity, the invention of the Internet, the invention of smart phones, AI …… 后者代表了政治经济，决定当下我们生活质量 The latter represents political economy, which determines the quality of life of the people, employment and income affect the rice bowl 

老狐狸口中的好人 在乎别人感受的人 是失败的人 干我屁事就是干我 屁事 Good people in the mouths of old fox People who care about other people's feelings They're losers What's it to me is what's it to me 1990年 台湾股市在两年半内从2000点冲到12000点 随后又在八个月内跌回2000点 1990 Taiwan's stock market surged from  2000 to 12000 in two and a half years Then it fell back to 2000 in eight months    国庆前后大A行情真是很应景 The SSE market around the National Day is really out of date. 假期看完小孩视角的老狐狸 更让我想起小时候碎片 弥足珍贵的是日常 不是节日 After watching the old fox from a child's point of view on vacation Reminds me more of my childhood debris It's the daily life that's precious. Not holidays

                         看完第一反应就是是枝裕和风格 The first thing that came to mind was the Yuwa Ebisu style. 姥姥存的钱最后还是给自己买了房子 Grandma's savings ended up buying herself a house. 血缘背后是亲情，亲情背后是家庭，家庭背后是文化 Behind blood is kinship, behind kinship is family, behind family is culture 这是导演仅此能做的 That's all the director could do.  

 金牌可以衡量一个国家的实力吗 Can gold medals measure a country's standard 1.那些非职业运动员能拿奖真是非常牛逼，比如26岁的分析师 贾斯汀·贝斯特 1. it's pretty awesome that those non-professional athletes can win awards, like 26-year-old analyst Justin Best 2.令我印象深刻是卢森堡选手倪夏莲，尤其是自信的笑容，是我们父辈身上没有的，与日本小山智丽曾经都是国家队员 2. I was impressed by the Luxembourg player Ni xialian, especially the confident smile, which is not found in our fathers and mothers, and Japan's  Koyama Chire  used to be a national player. 3. 她们让我想到刚去世的李政道，如果他和杨振宁都没去美国留学，或者去了又像邓稼先一样回来了，显然他们不会获得诺贝尔物理学奖 3. they remind me of  Tsung Dao Lee  who just passed away, if he and  Yang Chen Ning  didn't go to the US to study, or went and came back like Deng Jiaxian, obviously they wouldn't have won the Nobel Prize in Physics
