HBO Hit Show — News Room

(2012-07-21 19:11:01) 下一個
一上映就大受歡迎。 看了2集,非常喜歡。 此類節目也隻有像HBO才敢和有能力製作。本片是奧斯卡最佳編劇艾倫·索爾金首次接觸電視劇銀幕。 創作過《社交網絡》、《West Wing》.因此,同艾倫·索金之前的所有劇一樣,本劇的對話火力十足,觀點碰撞激烈,故事情節交錯精巧,你都可以在本劇中找到他在《West Wing》裏的那股霸氣,也彌漫 著一種極端理想化的情緒。劇中,威爾是一個非常棒的新聞人,痛恨當今美國媒體的墮落,似乎在試圖一個人挽救已經頹廢不堪的美國新聞業。一開場,威爾就來了 一大段獨白,在一群學生麵前慷慨陳詞,痛斥美國當下的各種問題。




精彩對白
And with a straight face you’re gonna tell students that America is so star-spangled awesome that we’re the only ones in the world who have freedom?
· Canada has freedom.Japan has freedom.The U.K.,France,Italy,Germany,Spain,Australia.Belgium has freedom! 207 sovereign states in the world,like 180 of them have freedom. · All right…
– And, yeah, you, sorority girl. Just in case you accidentally wander into a voting booth one day,there are some things you should know,and one of them is there is absolutely no evidence to support the statement that we’re the greatest country in the world.
· We’re seventh in literacy, 27th in math, 22nd in science, 49th in life expectancy,178th in infant mortality,third in median household income, number four in labor force, and number four in exports. We lead the world in only three categories: Number of incarcerated citizens per capita, number of adults who believe angels are real, and defense spending where we spend more than the next 26 countries combined, 25 of whom are allies.
· Now, none of this is the fault of a 20-year-old college student ,but you nonetheless are without a doubt a member of the worst period generation period ever period.   So when you ask what makes us the greatest country in the world.I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. Yosemite?

· We sure used to be. We stood up for what was right.
We fought for moral reasons. We passed laws, struck down laws for moral reasons.
We waged wars on poverty, not poor people. We sacrificed.
We cared about our neighbors.
We put our money where our mouths were and we never beat our chest.
We built great big things,made ungodly technological advances,explored the universe, cured diseases, and we cultivated the world’s greatest artists and the world’s greatest economy.

· We reached for the stars, acted like men. We aspired to intelligence.
We didn’t be little it.That didn’t make us feel inferior.
We didn’t identify ourselves by who we voted for in the last election and we didn’t… we didn’t scare so easy.

Ahem, we were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed.   
By great men, men who were revered.
The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one.   
… … America is not the greatest country in the world anymore.
