在30年代,一直在研究勘探北非沙漠,尋找澤祖拉綠洲。一次,一位叫傑弗里·克利夫頓的年輕英國貴族帶著他的新婚妻子凱瑟琳飛到了開羅,加入了沙漠勘探的行列。一個月里,奧爾馬西成了她的情人。為報復奧爾馬西,凱瑟琳的丈夫設計了一起自殺飛行,要他們三人同歸於盡。

(3)電影英國病人故事梗概英文擴展閱讀:
創作背景
翁達傑之所以把小說命名為《英國病人》是因為英國做為英聯邦的核心國,她曾經也有著非凡的凝聚力。雖然這種凝聚力在小說創作之時雖已大不如前,但她的影響還會繼續存在下去,在前廣大殖民地地區發揮重要作用。獨立後的英帝國成員如印度、加拿大等,由於歷史原因,在移民組成、文化背景和發展道路等方面都留有共同的英殖民統治的烙印。
這些國家的人對於前宗主的感情是愛恨交加、難以言喻的,正如小說中的卡拉瓦喬和基普:當自己的猜測最終得到證實時,卡拉瓦喬決定對過注不予追究,基普則舉槍對准他所敬重的「英國」病人。
《英國病人》從構思至完稿歷時近六年,其創作之時正是加拿大多元文化政策出台之際。為了緩和各移民民族之間的矛盾、支持各族裔群體發展自己的民族文化、保護其在文化習俗和社會生活等方面的平等地位,加零大政府積極推行「多元文化」政策。
❹ 英國病人以及阿甘正傳的英文影評
英國病人'The English Patient' can rightly be compared to the films of David Lean, whose sweeping epics such as 'Lawrence of Arabia' and 'Bridge on the River Kwai' must have inspired the director Anthony Minghella. The film is beautifully photographed, and like 'Lawrence', is set in Northern Africa, but ring the second world war. The story is complex, but it boils down to a forbidden love between an opinionated and often difficult archeologist played by Ralph Fiennes and a married woman played by Kristin Scott Thomas.
The story, based on a novel by Michael Ondaatje, is told in flashbacks by Fiennes' Count Laszlo de Almasy - the titular character. The fact that his name does not sound like he's English plays a key role in what unfolds. He has been badly burned in a plane crash, occurring just as the film opens, and is being cared for back in Europe by Hana, an army nurse played by Juliette Binoche. What makes this story epic is the vast sweep across place and time, and the development of characters beyond that of the two ill-fated lovers. The film makes clear that true love and passion, even with dreaded consequences, can make life worth living, or worth dying for. If you're a romantic at heart, and can appreciate a film without the standard happy endings and simple moral codes, you may find that 'The English Patient' speaks directly to you. 阿甘正傳Forrest Gump who is unfortunately to be born with a lower IQ and the muscle problem, usually, people always think this kind of person can't be successful in doing anything. But, instead, this unlucky man has achieved lots of incredible success, he is a football star, a war hero, and later a millionaire!
In the contention of the best picture of the 67th Oscar Award in 1995, film <Forrest Gump> Have got six Grand Prixes , such as the best picture , the best actor , the best achievement in directing , adapting drama , the best achievement in film editing and the best visual effect bestly ,etc. at one blow . The film was passed to a intellectual disturbance person the description of life has reflected every aspect of U.S.A.'s life, important incident of social political life make and represent to these decades such as U.S.A. from one unique angle. Film adapt Winston · novel of the same name of Groom since. Only the original work is that one is full of fantastic novels with a satiric flavour, but the film modifies and beautifies the story. Have abandoned the absurdity of the original work and revealed that satirizes meaning , have added a kind of tender feeling for the film. This undoubtedly makes the film suit audience and judging panel's taste even more, but has sacrificed the struggle spirit of the rebel of the original work , make the film become one kind and idealize ethical symbol .
Forrest Gump mould incarnation of virtue is honest keeping one's word , conscientiously , brave paying attention to emotioning among film. In the film, Forrest Gump is a very pure image, but Jenny has become the degenerate symbol . And write the great discrepancy originally in this. To all that narrated, since beginning all behave with a kind of tender feeling and well-meaning attitude after all for the film, having even joined poesy composition, this makes the film seem soft and have no injury. The film advocates to traditional moral concept and embodiment. Make film apt to accept by people, director superb lay out skill and film application of language make the film very attractive too. Success with commercial for film content of the film has given security, and the treatment on director's art makes the film more excellent, this is reason that the film succeeds. It was the box-office hits the most in that year to become U.S.A. in < Forrest Gump>.
Tom · Hanks very much sincere naturally performance having among film. He has obtained the laurel of the best actor of Oscar for the behavior in this film. This second movie emperor's money already whom he obtained in succession looks like. Success of < Forrest Gump>, make Tom Hanks become one of the most popular movie stars in Hollywood too. To Tom Hanks, those two years are the luckiest period of time in his performing art careers

護士漢娜是戰地醫院的一名護士,戰爭使她失去了男友麥根,在傷員轉移途中由於誤入雷區,又失去了最好的朋友珍,這使她身心交瘁。於是她決定獨身留下來照顧那個"英國病人"。這是義大利的一個廢棄的修道院,遠離戰爭的喧囂,顯得寧靜而閑逸,"英國病人"靜靜的躺在房間的木床上,窗頭的一本舊書漸漸喚起了他的思緒……
匈牙利籍的歷史學者艾馬殊伯爵跟隨探險家馬鐸深入撒哈拉沙漠進行考察,在那裡,他結識了"皇家地理學會"推薦來幫助繪制地圖的"飛機師"傑佛和他美麗的妻子嘉芙蓮。嘉芙蓮的風韻和才情深深地吸引了艾馬殊,並對她產生了無法抗拒的愛慕之情。傑佛由於回開羅籌集資金,留下嘉芙蓮和考察隊一同進行考察,在這段時間里,他們共同發現了沙漠深處的繪有原始繪畫的洞穴,同時,嘉芙蓮對機警、智慧、幽默的艾馬殊也產生了好感。終於,一場激情不可避免的爆發了,嘉芙蓮倒入了艾馬殊的懷抱,不盡的溫存使艾馬殊深陷情網而不能自拔。然而,身為有夫之婦的嘉芙蓮深知這是一場沒有結局的愛情,盡管她深愛艾馬殊,但她無法逾越道德的屏障,最終,她決定與艾馬殊分手,這深深地傷害了艾馬殊。

時間在一點點地流逝,心掛嘉芙蓮的艾馬殊焦急萬分。他終於找機會逃了出來,此時,對他來說,沒有比救嘉芙蓮更重要的事了,情急之中,他用馬鐸繪制的非洲地圖換取了德國人的幫助,用德國人給的汽油駕駛著馬鐸離開時留下的英國飛機返回山洞。他沒有違背諾言,可是,時間已過去太多,嘉芙蓮已在寒冷中永遠地離開了他……

❽ 誰能下載到英國病人的英文劇情介紹及碟傳給我呢急需急需,若有能幫者萬分感謝
前段時間剛看過這部電影,感觸挺大的,幫你找了找。下面是小說的介紹,他們說電影和小說有區別,不過我看了下感覺差不多。
Hana, a young Canadian Army nurse, lives in the abandoned Villa San Girolamo in Italy, which is filled with hidden, undetonated bombs. In her care is the man nicknamed "the English patient," of whom all she knows is that he was burned beyond recognition in a plane crash before being taken to the hospital by a Bedouin tribe. He also claimed to be English. The only possession that the patient has is a of Herodotus' histories that survived the fire. He has annotated these histories and is constantly remembering his explorations in the desert in great detail, but cannot state his own name. The patient is, in fact, László de Almásy, a Hungarian desert explorer who was part of a British archaeological group. He, however, chose to erase his identity and nationality.
Caravaggio, a Canadian who served in Britain's foreign intelligence service since the late 1930s, was a friend of Hana's father, who died in the war, having been a pilot whose plane was shot down. Caravaggio, who entered the world of spying because of his skill as a thief, comes to the villa in search of Hana. He overheard in another hospital that she was there taking care of a burned patient. Caravaggio bears physical and psychological scars; he was deliberately left behind to spy on the German forces and was eventually caught, interrogated and tortured, his thumbs having been cut off. Seeking vengeance three years later, Caravaggio (like Almásy) is addicted to morphine, which Hana supplies.
One day, while Hana is playing the piano, two British soldiers enter the villa. One of the soldiers is Kip, an Indian Sikh who has been trained as a sapper or combat engineer, specializing in bomb and ordnance disposal. Kip explains that the Germans often booby-trapped musical instruments with bombs, and that he will stay in the villa to rid it of its dangers. Kip and the English Patient immediately become friends.
Prompted to tell his story, the Patient begins to reveal all: An English gentleman, Geoffrey Clifton and his wife, Katherine, accompanied the patient's desert exploration team. The Patient's job was to draw maps of the desert and The Clifton's plane made this job easier. Almásy fell in love with Katherine Clifton one night as she read from Herodotus' histories aloud around a campfire. They soon began a very intense affair, but in 1938, Katharine cut it off, claiming that Geoffrey would go mad if he discovered them. Geoffrey, however, did discover the affair when he tricked her into thinking he was out of town for the day (wanting to surprise her for their first wedding anniversary) and saw Katherine getting into a car on her way to Almásy.
When World War II broke out in 1939, the members of the exploration team decided to pack up base camp and Geoffrey Clifton offered to pick up Almásy in his plane. However, Geoffrey Clifton arrived with Katharine and tried to kill all three of them by crashing the plane, leaving Almásy in the desert to die. Geoffrey Clifton died immediately; Katharine survived, but was horribly injured. Almásy took her to "the cave of swimmers," a place the exploration team had previously discovered, and covered her with a parachute so he could leave to find help. After four days, he reached a town, but the British were suspicious of him because he was incoherent and had a foreign surname. They locked him up as a spy.
When Almásy finally got away, he knew it was too late to save Katharine, so he allowed himself to be captured by the Germans, helping their spies cross the desert into Cairo in exchange for gas and a car to get back to Katherine. After leaving Cairo, his car broke down in the desert. He went to the cave of swimmers to find Katharine, and retrieved her body and took it to the crashed plane, which had been buried under the sand. He tried to fly back to civilization, but the plane malfunctioned ring flight. Almásy parachuted down covered in flames which was where the Bedouins found him.
Caravaggio, who had had suspicions that the Patient was not English, fills in details. Geoffrey Clifton was, in fact, an English spy and had intelligence about Almásy's affair with Katharine. He also had intelligence that Almásy was already working with the Germans.
Over time while Almásy divulges the details of his past, Kip becomes close to Hana. Kip's brother had always distrusted the West, but Kip entered the British Army willingly. He was trained as a sapper by Lord Suffolk, an English gentleman, who welcomed Kip into his family. Under Lord Suffolk's training, Kip became very skilled at his job. When Lord Suffolk and his team were killed by a bomb, Kip became separated from the world and emotionally removed from everyone. He decided to leave England and began defusing bombs in Italy. Kip's best friend, a British Army sergeant is killed in a bomb explosion.
Kip forms a romantic relationship with Hana and uses it to reconnect to humanity. He becomes a part of a community again and begins to feel comfortable as a lover. Then he hears news of the atomic bomb being dropped on Japan. He becomes enraged. He feels deceived and betrayed by the western world that he had tried to assimilate to. He threatens to kill the English Patient, but instead decides to leave the Villa.
For some time after their separation, Hana wrote Kip letters, but he never responded. She eventually stopped. Years later Kip is happily married with children and is a successful doctor; however, he still often thinks of Hana.
這是電影的介紹,覺得不夠詳細但還是貼出來:The film is set ring World War II and depicts a critically burned man, at first known only as 'the English patient', who is being looked after by Hana, a French-Canadian nurse in a ruined Italian villa. The patient is reluctant to disclose any personal information but through a series of flashbacks, viewers are allowed into his past. It is slowly revealed that he is in fact a Hungarian geographer, Count László de Almásy, who was making a map of the Sahara Desert, and whose affair with a married woman ultimately brought about his present situation. As the patient remembers more, David Caravaggio, a Canadian thief/intelligence operative, arrives at the monastery. Caravaggio lost his thumbs while being interrogated by officers of the German Afrika Korps, and he graally reveals that it was the patient's actions that had brought about his torture. 你說的那段沒找到。要找這部電影的話,用迅雷去gougou.com里下。

❿ 世界著名電影及內容簡介
有一種電影,它能讓你回味並且思考生存的意義與愛情的真諦,它的斑駁光影能封存在記憶里永遠不會褪色;有一種愛情,他能把生命中曾經失去的美麗轉化為一卷無影無形的膠片珍藏在心中,如酒一般越存越醇。有一部叫《英國病人》的影片,它讓我們在流暢大氣的影象里見證了烽火年代的點滴印記。當這些承載著情感與回憶的膠片在閃爍的記錄中被復活時,愛情與人性的美好得到了最完美的呈現,並讓我們在這段超越了國界與道德的戰火愛情中,享受到心靈回歸自我的寧靜,品味到生存與命運的變幻莫測,並帶著永遠無法企及的愛情夢幻奔向永恆。
影片《英國病人》改編自著名作家邁克爾·翁達吉曾獲普立茲等各項文學獎的同名愛情巨著。小說講述了兩個哀宛感人的愛情故事,雖然兩段故事的結局完全不同,卻又意想不到的糾葛在一起。並把愛情這個人類永恆的主題放置在殘酷的戰火年代,悲嘆出命運與情感的無常,形成一部關於愛、關於人性的史詩畫卷。如果說作家邁克爾·翁達吉用揮灑的筆觸描繪出一幅烽火歲月的人性浮雕,那麼英國著名導演安東尼·明格拉則用深沉細膩的光影釋放出愛情的光輝,並用時空交錯的手法展現出心靈渴望超越的深層意識。在第二次世界大戰中,一名在沙漠中意外墜機導致全身燒傷的男子被救起,身處義大利的加拿大籍護士在荒廢的修道院中看養了他。這名如迷一般的英國病人開始每天向善良的護士訴說一段迷樣的愛情故事。這段愛情將兩個生命緊緊的連接在一起,超越了信仰與倫理,沖破了國界與道德。似乎世間的一切在這樣的愛情面前都是蒼白而軟弱的,但這份執著的愛卻在殘酷的現實下也如玻璃玫瑰一樣脆弱的不堪一擊。然而,難以控制的戰火卻毀滅了英國病人和他的戀人,他們死於戰爭,更死於愛情,死於難以控制的「擁有和被擁有」。為了愛情挺而走險的歐洲貴族,擅離職守的英軍護士,內心充滿矛盾的錫克族士兵,被砍掉兩根手指的雙重間諜,這些受到戰爭重創的人們都有一種超越的渴望。這種渴望潛藏在被制約、被規范了的人性底層,就猶如那被掩埋在荒漠之中的古老壁畫。
在回憶與現實互相交錯的時空下,影片中的所有人都成為了戰爭的受害者,他們在人性,國界與戰爭的面前都顯得是那麼軟弱與渺小。雖然他們自身的愛是具有毀滅性的,但卻無法與戰爭所帶來的災難相比。也許在戰火中脆弱的生命只有超越戰爭,回歸到愛,回歸人性才能得到心靈的平靜。於是,英國病人的愛情在影片中被演化為某種符號,象徵著個體在戰爭中的精神創傷,傳遞著關於忘卻與記憶、傷痛與瘋狂、精神與慾望的種種信息。身受戰爭重創的人們,渴想著用愛來呵護與滋潤自身;「英國病人」 ,就成為了一種走向文明的人性象徵。而戰爭在影片當中,就如同那漫漫大漠 ,蠻野又空禿 ,凌人而酷吏,宛若是一抹罪惡的荒沙。
或許亂世中無法把握的愛情,都透著一種悲涼,因戰爭失落的情感也讓人無奈。而在戰火中演繹的愛情故事,蘊涵了太多的深情與無奈。愛是人類永恆的主題,愛情只有在亂世中才顯得奪目和珍貴,戰爭也只有在愛情的嘆息面前才顯得既殘酷又無力。影片中的英國病人在面對死亡時是無悔的,正象他的情人臨死時在日記中寫到的那樣:我們雖死,但卻飽含著愛與經歷。他們在生活上、情感上的糾葛與沖突全來源於自我身心的迷惘與彷徨。經歷戰火的洗劫後,英國病人也似乎只能生活在對往事的回憶當中,希望能從思索中重新找回人生的方向,逃避著思想與情感的痛苦與折磨,也許他那顆充滿遺憾的心靈永遠也找不到心靈在戰爭後的歸宿與寧靜。當道德的大廈倒塌後,當信仰的天平失去指針後,這些從戰爭暴力的漩渦中倖存下來的人,將要受著比戰爭本身還要沉痛的創痛……
