当观看一部使用三种语言拍摄的电影时，往往需要些勇气和耐心。

 

　　South Korean director Kim Tae-yong’s remake of Late Autumn, a 1966 South Korean film, is in English, Chinese and Korean. And it doesn’t disappoint.

 

　　这部韩国导演金泰勇执导的《晚秋》，翻拍自韩国1966年的同名影片，使用中、英、韩三种语言拍摄。而该片果然没令人失望。

 

　　Starring Chinese actress Tang Wei and South Korean actor Hyun Bin, Late Autumn is an enchanting tale of two unlikely misfits who fall in love, against all odds.

 

　　这部中国女星汤唯和韩国影星玄彬共同主演的电影《晚秋》讲述了一个引人入胜的故事：两个看起来完全无害的不被社会接受的人如何不顾一切地陷入爱河。

 

　　Director Kim’s subtle, nuanced direction elicits wonderful performances from his lead actors, crafting a lyrical and captivating love story.

 

　　导演金泰勇运用细致细腻的导演手法，使得两位主演发挥出精湛演技，演绎出一段充满温情且令人为之着迷的爱情故事。

 

　　The screenplay follows the original: Chinese-American Anna (Tang) is in prison for killing her husband. She is allowed parole for 72 hours to attend her mother’s funeral in Seattle. On the bus, she lends the bus fare to a South Korean escort named Hoon (Hyun). The story between two strangers begins.

 

　　该版本剧情沿用了之前的情节：美籍华裔女子安娜（汤唯饰演）因杀害丈夫而被判入狱。后因为要前往西雅图参加母亲的葬礼，而获得了72小时的假释机会。在长途汽车上，安娜为来自韩国的应召男郎“勋”（玄彬饰演）垫付了车费。两个陌生人间的故事由此开始。

 

　　The plot is similar to that of Before Sunrise (1995) as the couple spends a day and a half exploring the city.

 

　　该故事情节与1995年的电影《爱在黎明破晓时》颇为相似，同样是一对恋人的城市之旅，同样是一起度过一天半的时光。

 

　　At the major turning points of their relationship, they engage in a child-like play-acting. In one scene Hoon pretends to be Anna’s fiance at the funeral and provokes a punch-up with her jealous ex-lover.

 

　　当二人感情到达实质性转折点时，他们像孩子般地玩起了角色扮演。其中一幕发生安娜母亲的葬礼上，勋假扮安娜的未婚夫，还与安娜那位大吃干醋的前男友大打出手。

 

　　Apart from the light-hearted scenes, dialogue is limited. Under Kim’s direction, the film is surprisingly peaceful and chaste.

 

　　除了轻松场面以外，剧中的对白也十分有限。在金泰勇的执导下，整部影片彰显出的令人赞叹的平静与质朴。

 

　　However, it is during the narrative’s silences and pauses that deeper feelings have a chance to emerge. For example there is a scene at a bus stop, in which the camera circles Anna as she mills about in the mist looking for Hoon. Her distress and sense of loss echoes the opening shot of her staggering down the road the day she killed her husband.

 

　　而正是故事中的这些静默与停顿，使得一种更为深邃的情感得以流露出来。比如在长途汽车站的一幕，当安娜在迷雾中漫无目的地找寻着勋的时候，镜头围绕着她的一举一动。她的那份痛苦和失落感也呼应了影片开始时她杀死丈夫那天，踉踉跄跄走在街上的那一幕。

 

　　In Late Autumn, Tang replays her sullen, repressed character in Crossing Hennessy, and Hyun’s performance is impressive–for not underplaying the dandy, narcissistic side of his personality.

 

　　在《晚秋》中，汤唯延续了自己在《月满轩尼诗》中沉闷压抑的人物性格。而玄彬的表演同样令人印象深刻，他将勋这个人物身上那种花花公子而又自恋的性格表演得淋漓尽致。

 

　　Last but not least, there is the third main role in the film–the city of Seattle, which appears beautiful and romantic, yet foggy and drab, with hardly any color or smell of autumn.

 

　　最后要值得一提的是，该剧中还有一个主要角色，那就是西雅图，这个看上去充满美丽和浪漫，却又朦胧且单调的城市，几乎找不到秋天的色彩和气息。
