弱点电影赏析英文

Watching The Blind Side, you could be forgiven for thinking you'd fallen into an alternative universe where the Republicans are still in charge in America. Sandra Bullock plays Leigh Anne Touhy, a larger than life Momzilla, and blonde sub-species of the genus Sarah palinus. She's almost as funny as Tina Fey doing her dead on impression of the former Governor of Alaska, with lines like "I'm in a prayer group with the D.A., I'm a member of the NRA and I'm always packing," delivered absolutely straight. Until you realise we're meant to be rooting for her. Leigh Anne is an interior decorator with a penchant for sentimental gold tat and a heart to match. When she sees that a po' black kid at her children's school is effectively homeless, she takes him in and in her no-nonsense fashion shapes him into a professional-calibre American football player. This is a true story - the real Michael Oher currently plays for the Baltimore Ravens, having been legally adopted by the Touhys (don't expect to hear much from Leigh Anne's hubby, by the way, he's the strong silent type) at high-school age.

《弱点》的观后感如下：

This movie is based on Michael lewis's works weakness（The game process）and is the adaptation of the film, which also has a name“protect you”, I think, whether it is named“weakness”or“protect you”, it is a film which contains warmth.

I think a good movie is not in its content and profound, but it can relate to the content of the people, let a person feel warm and most essential things of the society.

Even if you do something with a purpose to at the beginning, but when you get what touches your heart is, you will be desperate to pay, you will be happy from the deep heart, and touched by themselves at the same time. How many times the life can be touched by himself?

翻译：这部电影是根据迈克尔·刘易斯的作品《弱点·比赛进程》而改编的电影，它还有一个名字叫《守护有心人》，我想，不管是取名《弱点》还是叫《守护有心人》，都是体现了电影所包含的温情。

我觉得一部好的电影不在于它的内容有多深奥，而在于它的内容能有共鸣的人，让人感觉到温暖和这个社会最本真的东西。

就算是做好事，即使你一开始是带着目的去的，但当你得到触动你内心的东西是，你会不顾一切去付出，你会发自内心的高兴，同时也会感动自己。人生又能有几次是能感动自己的呢？

The marketing campaign for The Blind Side plays up the inspirational aspects of the story - that it's based on the real-life rags-to-riches tale of football player Michael Oher and the woman whose fierce love and determination to help him allowed him to see the Promised Land. There's no doubt this is a crowd-pleaser, as occasional bursts of applause attested during the screening I attended. The film skillfully plays on an audience's emotions, but that's what this sort of movie does, and director John Lee Hancock shows a sure hand when it comes to careful manipulation. He rarely goes too far and he knows enough to leaven the heavy emotional aspects with bursts of comedy and the occasional telling point about what causes us to value individuals in this society. Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) was selected in the first round of the 2009 NFL draft by the Baltimore Ravens. This is a sanitized (some might argue "Hollywood-ized") version of events that brought him to that point. When the film begins, he's a lost teenager who has been accepted to a private religious school because of his untapped potential as a football player. The coach (Ray McKinnon) salivates when he considers Michael's size and strength on his offensive line - he's a bear of a man - but Michael's academic performance is so poor that he is ineligible to play. He has no home - the State took him away from his crack-addicted mother when he was a child and he mostly looks for warm places to spend the night. He is wandering the streets in the cold and the rain when Leigh Anne Touhy (Sandra Bullock) spots him. She and her husband, Sean (Tim McGraw), recognize him since their son, S.J. (Jae Head), and daughter, Collins (Lily Collins), go to his school. Impulsively, Leigh Anne invites Michael to spend the night on her couch, and that one night becomes the first of many. Michael becomes a part of the Touhy family, his performance at school improves, and he is finally able to show what he can do on a football field. To be sure, there are some stock elements in the story, such as a scene in which Michael returns to the projects and confronts some of the gangsters who knew him as a child. But what's impressive about The Blind Side is how many of the familiar clichés are not to be found in the movie. No villain is invented to generate unnecessary conflict. There is no weepy reunion between Michael and his birth mother. There are no tortured scenes of drawn-out family bonding. The Blind Side isn't exactly subtle but neither is it cloying. Hancock, who also directed another inspirational sports drama, The Rookie, gets the tone just about right. And, while things are softened considerably for the PG-13 rating, there are hints of darker elements that don't quite make it to the screen. In a way, this is Precious for a family-friendly audience. Lee Daniels' movie is more gritty and gripping, but the core message is the same about an individual with profound disadvantages overcoming his or her disabilities and finding success in life. Both are fairy tales of a sort, and it hardly matters that one has its roots in fact and the other is based on a work of fiction. Some will doubtlessly dismiss The Blind Side as another example of a heroic white person saving a black victim but, although there is an element of truth in that perfunctory description, it misses the point. This is more about simple human decency and economic disadvantage than it is about racial inequality (although it would be disingenuous to ignore a link). Leigh Anne helps Michael not because of the color of his skin or his potential as an athlete - she does it because she sees another human being suffering and reaches out to him. Others, like Coach Cotton, have ulterior motives for extending themselves. Although the central character in the real life drama is Michael, that's not necessarily the case with the movie, in which the script strikes a balance between Michael and Leigh Anne. But where relative newcomer Quinton Aaron operates a little under the radar, Sandra Bullock is anything but low-key. She is very good in this juicy role - the right mix of tough love and occasional vulnerability. There's some of the Julia Roberts vibe from Erin Brockovich here and it would be foolish to assume the actress was unaware of the Oscar potential inherent in the part when she accepted it. Still, Bullock pulls it off and it seems possible a nomination could be in her future. She is ably supported: Tim McGraw is likeable as the supportive husband who's along for the ride; Lily Collins shows spunk as the little sister who defies peer pressure to embrace her new brother; and Jae Head provides most of the comedic relief. Aaron, meanwhile, has the physique to play Michael and his acting is solid enough for him to be able to pull off the role of the gentle giant, but he spends a fair amount of time in Bullock's shadow. A number of college coaches have cameos; Nick Saban is probably given too much screen time. He's a truly awful actor, as becomes evident as soon as he begins reciting dialogue. The trailer makes The Blind Side out to be more mawkish than it is. Although there is some softening of the edges and amplification of the positives, the film doesn't take it to extremes or play the audience for fools. The script is generally pretty smart - it begins with a fabulous voiceover detailing how Joe Theismann's 1985 injury resulted in Michael having a shot at eventual stardom - and the characters are nicely developed. It's easy for an inspirational movie to try too hard to get viewers to cheer. This one achieves the goal by allowing the good feelings to emerge organically rather than by artificial means. In a head-to-head comparison, one would be hard-pressed not to declare that Precious is the better film - it makes fewer compromises and doesn't shy from showing the true ugliness only hinted at in this movie, but The Blind Side is more accessible. It's easier to digest. In the end, both films tell stories of triumph over adversity - a category of drama that uplifts while offering a dollop of social commentary.

我觉得并不是谁的弱点。

电影的英文名是The Blind Side，只是体育比赛的术语，应该是指盲点的意思，具体的我也不太懂，但应该是比赛中有你看不到的地方，有你替你看着，保护的意思。引申理解这个弱点也应该是整个社会看不到的盲点，有被黑暗掩盖的美好。就像黑人引发的社会问题，但是也有美好存在，黑人与白人，无论谁收留了谁，谁壮大了谁！我们都是一家人，家人彼此之间要有爱，我们都要懂得回报和感恩。

影片从两个角度诠释了生命的盲点。迈克生长于环境险恶的黑人聚居区，但一直保持着善良的本性，是因为他妈妈从小教导他，有坏事发生时要闭上眼睛，等坏事过去后再睁开眼睛，世界还是一片美好，这个生命的盲点保持了迈克的纯净。安妮在那个夜晚穿越了这个盲点，看到并正视了孑孓而行的迈克，于是避免了他像他的兄弟们那样沉沦和不知所终。她拯救了他的才能，拯救了他的命运，她为此而感谢上帝，她成全了迈克，同时迈克也成全了她。这个道理适用于所有的人，度人就是度己，做一个对他人有意义的人，就是对自己最好的成全。

《弱点》讲的并不是一个麻雀变凤凰、丑小鸭变天鹅的故事。导演的用意要比这积极得多，他从根本上即认为奥赫本来就是凤凰和天鹅，只不过有着严重的盲点，一旦消除了这些盲点，他就能把最美好的一面展示给世人看。

首先此片根据迈克尔刘易斯（Michael Lewis）的原著《弱点：比赛进程》改编，小说本身记叙的时真人真事，在影片中演员昆顿.亚伦所饰的迈克尔.奥赫像每一个平凡的小人物，又比现实生活中平凡人的处境多了一个悲惨的身世，首先在白人资产阶级男性异性恋的金科玉律体系中，奥赫无论在哪一领域都显得十分格格不入，他是黑人，他生活在美国最脏最乱的贫民聚集区，他遭父亲抛弃，又因母亲吸毒成瘾而不得不经常往返于福利院，他的人生开始就被塑造得命如草芥，一文不值，然而导演并没有在此处刻意渲染奥赫以前的悲惨生活或他曾受到的种种不公处境，这也被我们认为是合理的，毕竟导演陈述的影片重心不在人物的以前。像影片中的陶西太太，发现了奥赫一直默默小心守护的善良，之后陶西太太收养了这个无家可归到心也在飘零起伏的非洲裔男孩，并且用自己的实际行动一次次的给奥赫前行的勇气。奥赫无疑是幸运的，他遇到了一位像天使一样的妈妈，超越种族歧视，让人坚信力量。从片子延生到社会，近年来不断有美国家庭领养孩子的新闻传出，美联社报道，2017年美国领养的儿童人数为4714人，在中国领养的孩子数量最多，而且特殊的是，美国人领养的孩子里包括很大一部分的需要特殊照顾的儿童。再领养儿童方面，美国无疑是一个很积极的国家。和中国不同的是，首先在理念上，中国父母在长期的儒家思想文化熏陶下，他们认为孩子长大后，将来自己年老后要赡养自己，有养儿防老这一说，而西方的宗教思想和较为完备的医疗养老制度影响下，美国父母更多的将孩子视为一种礼物，一份祝福，且抚养到十八岁就可以独立，父母不需要为他们在提供任何物质补给，父母年老之后也会有相应的社会政策保障他们的老年生活。最后，希望被领养的孩子都能幸福成长，也希望每个生命的诞生都能被严肃对待，毕竟每个孩子都是上天赐予你的礼物，每个家庭都应该负担起这份责任。
