December has already arrived, and here is a list of films recommended by Nicholas Barber, from BBC News .
12月已经到来，这是英国广播公司新闻频道尼古拉斯·巴伯推荐的电影清单。
Don’t Look Up
不要抬头
People are often slow to react to a disaster, whether it’s a climate emergency or a global pandemic—and it was this tendency that prompted Adam McKay ( The Big Short, Vice ) to make his new film, Don’t Look Up . Jennifer Lawrence and Leonardo DiCaprio play two astronomers who have calculated that a “planet killer” comet is going to crash into the Earth, killing everyone. But the US president (Meryl Streep) is just one of the many people who refuse to face the facts. “It’s the idea of a disaster movie in which people don’t necessarily believe that the disaster is coming. I call it a dark comedy,” McKay told The New York Times .
人们通常对灾难反应迟钝，无论是气候紧急情况还是全球大流行 -- 正是这种趋势促使亚当·麦凯制作他的新电影，不要抬头。詹妮弗·劳伦斯和莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥扮演两位天文学家，他们计算出一颗 “行星杀手” 彗星将坠入地球，杀死所有人。但是美国总统只是拒绝面对事实的众多人之一。“这是一部灾难电影的想法，在这部电影中，人们不一定相信灾难即将到来。我称之为黑色喜剧，”麦凯告诉《纽约时报》。
West Side Story
西区故事
The original 1961 film of West Side Story , directed by Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins, is honoured as one of the finest Hollywood musicals ever made. A New York-set movie version of Romeo and Juliet , it was the biggest box-office hit of the year, and went on to win 10 Oscars, including best picture. Why, then, should anyone watch a new take on the same material? Well, one answer is that this West Side Story is directed by Steven Spielberg. Another answer is that Stephen Sondheim has given it his approval. “It’s really terrific,” he said. “And for those of you who know the show, there are going to be some real surprises in it...”
由罗伯特·怀斯和杰罗姆·罗宾斯执导的1961年《西区故事》原版电影被誉为有史以来最好的好莱坞音乐剧之一。这是一部由纽约拍摄的电影《罗密欧与朱丽叶》，是今年票房最高的电影，并获得了10项奥斯卡奖，包括最佳影片。那么，为什么有人应该看同样材料的新作品呢？一个答案是《西区故事》是由史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格执导的。另一个答案是斯蒂芬·桑德海姆已经同意了。“真的很棒，” 他说。“对于那些了解这个节目的人来说，会有一些真正的惊喜……”
Flee
逃离
In this heart-breaking Danish documentary, Jonas Poher Rasmussen interviews his friend Amin about his miserable experiences as an Afghan refugee. Amin remembers his years as a child in Kabul(the capital of Afghan), his family’s flight from the Taliban, his deeply painful life in Moscow... It’s hard to imagine a more important film, but Flee doesn’t just do the vital job of humanising(使人性化) refugees, it also breaks new ground as a documentary.
在这部令人心碎的丹麦纪录片中，乔纳斯·波赫·拉斯穆森采访了他的朋友阿明，讲述了他作为阿富汗难民的悲惨经历。阿明记得他小时候在喀布尔的岁月，他的家人逃离塔利班，他在莫斯科的生活非常痛苦……很难想象一部更重要的电影，但是《逃离》不仅做了使难民人性化的重要工作，它还作为一部纪录片开辟了新的领域。
