The story of Braveheart is simple, but powerful. Peaceful William is driven to rebellion when his wife is killed. He becomes so devoted to the rebellion he starts, he sells his life to it, fighting both the corrupt Nobles of his country and the English oppressors.
The dialog of the film is simple and subtle. It's straightforward, and doesn't beat around the bush or sound poetic. It doesn't waste a moment of time, not an easy feat in a three hour film. THe film contains some great lines, lines that speak the pure truth of the matter. And also lines that are deceitful, the ones nobles are usually speaking.
James Horner's music is sweeping and majestic; it beautifully uses the bagpipes to add the ethnic flavor of Scotland and it sounds truly moving. It adds to the tension and excitement of every battle, and adds grace to every scene of love or silence.
The cinematography is an absolute treasure; a majestic sight to behold. A perfect fog always seems to settle, and the film looks as good rainy as it does in the clear sunlight. The towns are perfectly created, and look great. The costumes are superb, kilt to armor, looking authentic. Shots of thousands of soldiers charging look spectacular and epic on a grand scale.
The cast of the film are all absolutely superb. They all fit their roles perfectly, and everyone's accent is flawless. James Robinson is a great young Wallace. His facial expressions and quiet thinking-like stance, come off great and define the character early as emotionally pained. Catherine McKormkak is stunningly beautiful and full of joy , as Wallace's wife, and it is the memory of her that keeps William going. Brendan Gleeson is excellent as Wallace's friend Hamish; the gruff guy showing feelings through a lot of punches. Sophie Marceau is the weakest, but she nonetheless delivers a fine performance as the princess of Wales, who is not loved and suffers because of it. Patrick McGoohan is wicked awesome as Longshanks, the corrupt and evil king, with every line delivered with a wicked perfection. He is truly terrifying, in a villainous way. It's just the way he commands things, the subtly of how he so easily decides his troops can die, or how even after his nephew dies he is more concerned about the possibility of losing his head (in a literal sense). David O'Hara provides the comic relief as crazy Irishmen Stephen. He's downright hilarious, as he converses with god, but do not degrade the character to as little as a comedian. Soon after his first wise-cracking scene, it's down to being serious as he saves Wallace from a crazy man. Angus McFayden is perhaps the best support. He is the naive noble, who so badly wants freedom and to help Wallace, but is constantly deceived by those around him. His innocence rings true, as does his anger when he decides to change his ways of doing things. In a performance perhaps more terrifying then Longshanks, is Bruce's father played by Ian Bannen. Maybe it's the fact he's a leper, slowly decaying and dying (excellently shown with makeup), but I believe it has something to do with how he delivers every line so calmly. And what is he saying? He's discussing how he plays the country; how he thinks of the rebellions as a game, as opportunity for more land and support. It's scary. And of course there's the star Mel Gibson, as the heroic hero himself: William Wallace. Gibson is emotionally charged and deserved a Best Actor nod. He portrays Wallace as a very angered and hurt man. In one sequence particularly, from the time his wife dies until he brutally kills her murderer, Gibson does not speak. But it's all on his face; the pain, the hate, and even an air of sadness. And even as the dead body hits against his shoulder, he remains impassively depressed looking. He makes no acknowledgment that people are chanting his name in victory. His speech at the first battle, major battle, is truly inspiring. He delivers it with heartfelt passion, coming from a man who is being honest; trying to lead his countrymen in a fight for freedom not the Nobles' profit. And all the pain and anxiety, yet strength of will and character, come off perfectly in his final scene as he is brutally tortured. His face: unforgettable at every moment. Truly moving and powerful.
The direction is masterful. Here, Mel directs as as sharply as he acts. THe visuals are worthy of Peter Jackson, the battles are worthy of Ridley Scott, and the storytelling is worthy of Steven Spielberg. THe violence is intense, the battles being some of the most violent I've ever seen. It's not for the squeamish, but the violence is there to show the hardships of the fight for freedom. Mel holds no bars back. He unleashes medieval brutality. The final torture scene is brutal, but it shows Wallace's triumph to overcome it.

Braveheart was a huge deal when it first came out. I never really watched the film properly until recently. As a frequent cinema-goer since my youth I was not a part of the mid-nineties cultural phenomenon that was Braveheart's release in Scotland. I did turn up at the the cinema, the old Odeon in Edinburgh, but the queue went round the block (the literal term for a blockbuster) and there was no way in hell I was prepared to wait for three hours on a gray September afternoon (a choice I came to regret). Every subsequent attempt since then was blocked. I never rented the video as I didn't want to watch in pan-and-scan. The fact that every single living Scottish person had seen it apart from myself really got on my nerves, and I was quite bitter about it. And then, as the fever died down, I just kind of forgot about it and moved on.
Watching it fully as an alt I think I probably enjoy it more now that I would have done as a teenager. It's certainly a huge epic right up there with the best of them. Mel Gibson captures the pretty side of Scotland wonderfully with his scope photography accompanied by James Horner's bittersweet score. The film never really feels three hours long, the time just disappears.
Nearly every notable Scottish actor (apart from Connery and Connelly) appears at some point. From the brilliant (Brian Cox) to the dreary and pretentious (Peter Mullan). Keep a lookout for Tommy Flanagan too, in one of his earlier roles.
The battle scenes are impressive, but I wish there were more gory. Gibson's first cut of the film was apparently bloodier, I wish it had remained intact. But despite the grim satisfaction of seeing the English aggressors getting splattered the fact that Scotland IS still ruled by England kind renders Wallace's bravery irrelevant. It may have been 700 years ago, but I hate the fact that he ultimately died for nothing. We DON'T have a country of our own, plain and si-mp-le.
华莱士，终其一生都是一个斗士，一个为了爱情而斗的斗士，一个为了自由而斗的斗士，一个为了国家和命运而斗的斗士。他是一个让人尊敬的英雄。
首先是华莱士他的成长，对他而言，真正的成长是在失去了父亲以后。之前他只不过是一个单纯的小孩而已。当他看到那个小屋里被人吊死的同胞，他只是一种震吓，一般小孩一样惊吓而已。但他父亲哥哥死后，他变得勇敢，敢于直面死亡了，面对他父亲和哥哥的遗体，他变得如此平静。再后来，他叔叔把他带走，说是人要先学会用他的脑袋才能真正的战斗，把他带去接受教育，这个是他的故事的开端，也是他生命意义上的长大了。
其次是他的爱情，这部片他的爱情分成了两部分。一个就是和小时候的梅伦，一个美丽的苏格兰姑娘，一个在他父亲的葬礼后送了一枝花安慰他的人。华莱士求学有成后回来向他求婚。因为当时贵族享有初夜权的原因，他们在森林里偷偷的结婚了，这里可以体现出他的一种反抗的精神，一种本能的叛逆。但他们的爱情没有维系多久，因为梅伦的美丽太耀眼了，贵族杀了梅伦，这是苏格兰和英格兰的战斗的导火线，因为这引发了华莱士的爆发，揭竿而起，各地响应。第二段是与皇后的感情。皇后丈夫本来就是个同性恋，包办的婚姻让她感觉不到爱情的存在，根本没有感情可言。缺乏了爱情的滋润，让为爱情而起的华莱士走进了她的心灵，她自然为华莱士的豪情倾倒了。而华莱士则是在为了自由而奋身博杀，因为失去了梅伦，他一直在为了他的信念作战，皇后的美丽和善良感动了他，两颗干枯的心就这样融在了一起。
再说说他的战斗，华莱士开始战斗的时候，是因为贵族杀了他的妻子梅伦，可以说是一个简单的复仇行动，但事情一开始就不能再受到控制的，尤其是领导权掌握在一个聪明人的手里。后来，他们起义得到了各地不断的支持，这让人看到了苏格兰的自由希望。一个方面是因为他们苏格兰的人受迫压太久了，再加上华莱士所学的智慧，他们势如破竹，这就很让人，特别是爱德华心慌了。想尽办法招安华莱士，最后还是利用了一个骗局把华莱士抓了。
最后，在砍头台。这里是这部片的一个精华了，思想就是在这里的。行刑前，两个小丑在那里舞尽丑态，让人发笑，但也是说明了英国人的行为恰恰就是两个小丑所为。华莱士就刑，行人对这位英雄扔鸡蛋、烂菜，恰恰说明了国民的麻木和愚昧。后来在刑台上，华莱士受尽了各样残酷的折磨，下面则是一片欢呼声。华莱士就刑前，看到那个小孩在笑，可能这里也是一个希望的延续，把希望寄托给了后人。那声振馈发聋的“freedom”让人久久不能放下思想，激人不断前进。可以说，在刑台这段，是鲜明的对比让这个自由的精神体现的淋漓尽致的。一边是斗士、英雄，一边是愚昧的国民;一边是前进中的先锋，一边是止步不前的落伍者。差距就在这里体现了，代沟在这里产生。
勇敢的心是震撼人心的，因为这里有可贵的思想——自由。没有自由了你们还能干什么?也许是真的，我们也该好好思量思量。
望采纳！~~

The Review of Braveheart
I am deeply impressed by William Wallace’s courage and the efforts that the Scottish created to resume soverienty.It reminds me of my dream.Dream,whatever it is,really should be pursued heart and soul.Compared to Wallace,I am so lazy and passive.I watched it,giving free outlet to my thoughts and tears.
There are two scenes over which I really feel melancholy.The initial is when Meilun is buried. The same point happened when Wallace was yong,weeping at the death of his father.Tiny Meilun sent him a purple thistle .to console his sorrow.Even so,Meilun is dead now,no a single would send him a purple thist any much more.He has only himself in this world following losing the two persons he loves most.The second one particular is the very first war against England in the battlefield.,in which they were much weaker in regard to weapons and numbers.Confronted with immense difficulties,they had been not afaid,thinking we would drop.Instead,they fighted bravely and confidently.
Life will not usually be what we want. Wallace’s father died when he was a small boy.He did not want this tragedy transpire but it did take place,so he had to accept it；when his uncle came and would part him with his hometown,he obeyed with reluctance；moreover,his heart was broken facing the death of Meilan,but he had to accept it and be strong.Adversity leads to prosperity on situation that we can turn sorrow into strength.
Much as what is stated above,courage alone won’t guarantee success.Wallace’s uncle informed him :”you have to find out to use your thoughts,then weapons.”Being flexiable and conscious is even more critical,that is to say ,you know how to obtain your goal prior to you take actions.Additionally,it is worth notifying that pals are also extremely important in the pursue of dream.A life devoid of a pal is a life with out a sun.Wallace has Hamiss,who accompanied him to the end.

Ⅶ 拜托了，急啊！勇敢的心 英文观后感
Hills, bagpipes, mist, the word “Scotland” written along the bottom of the screen – it can only be one place. That’s right, Wales. Nah, only joking – as if anyone would ever make a film about Wales.
Mel Gibson both directed and starred in this tartan-clad epic about William Wallace, the legendary Scottish freedom fighter/terrorist who, even way back in the 14th Century, had already had enough of the English going on about winning the World Cup in 1966. So, armed with just some rocks, a few hundred muck-dwellers and an extremely peculiar accent, he led a nation to fight for freedom from English tyranny. Or something along those lines.
It’s actually fairly appropriate to be so vague about all of this, because nobody really knows all that much about the real Wallace (and most of what we do know comes from a poem). You could spend a lifetime picking apart the historical inaccuracies in the flick, and there would still be those who’d disagree with what you found.
Because of that, how much enjoyment you can get from this 177-minute beast depends largely on your willingness to accept Wallace as a charmer with biting wit and a permanently clean-shaven chin. As the sort of bloke beautiful French princesses would hand over national secrets to simply because of the way he looks at them. Or even just as a guy who doesn’t smell like moss.
The most breath-taking, if gruesome, parts of the movie are the incredibly lifelike battle scenes. Putting them together must have been an immense project to undertake, but you’ve got to hand it to Gibbers – he does it very, very well. He also makes a likable hero figure, providing you can put to the back of your mind the fact that he’s basically playing the original ned.
Personally I find the movie far too long, particularly as parts of it play like a TV advert for the Scottish Tourist Board. In one scene, for example, Wallace sprints to the top of a mountain and just stands there, kilt billowing, for no apparent reason. Anyone who’s ever worn a kilt will of course know that the last place you’re likely to linger is a-top a windy Scottish mountain. Talk about “freedom”!!

Long before The Passion of the Christ, Mel Gibson directed another cinematic masterpiece, Braveheart. Filmed against the backdrop of majestic mountains and rolling meadows, it tells the historically-based (yet not entirely accurate) story of William Wallace, a common man’s warrior who led the Scottish people in rebellion against King Edward I, also known as “Longshanks”. Written by Randall Wallace, an American tourist fascinated with a Scottish statue of his namesake, the script collected st in Hollywood for over a decade before Gibson made the brilliant decision to put it on the big screen. Just like The Passion, it’s a decision he would not regret.
Set in the 11th Century, Braveheart catalogues the struggle of Scottish serfs who labor under the brutal oppression of English occupation forces. Amidst these terrible conditions, William Wallace (Mel Gibson) falls in love with Murron MacClannough (Catherine McCormack). Insistent on not sharing his wife (a proclamation by the king gives local rulers “first-night rights” to new brides) Wallace secretly marries Murron. Nevertheless, an English knight assaults her, sparking a fight with Wallace. Fleeing the village, Wallace believes Murron has escaped and will soon meet him at a secret rendezvous point. But Murron is captured and executed by the king’s emissaries.
Angered by his wife’s murder, Wallace instigates a local rebellion, slaughtering all the king’s loyalists in his village. As his rebellion grows, a distraught Longshanks (Patrick McGoohan) dispatches his fabled Northern Army to destroy it. But the heroic Wallace delivers a stirring speech to rouse his men, while deploying an ingenious battlefield trick to defeat the king’s cavalry.
With the power and legend of Wallace growing day by day, Longshanks relies on his daughter-in-law, Princess Isabelle (Sophie Marceau) to broker a truce. But Isabelle’s power is limited, and Wallace realizes his people can only win freedom if backed by the Scottish nobles. Their appointed leader is Robert the Bruce (Angus MacFadyen) who vacillates between his own idealistic views and his father’s pessimistic pragmatism. Will the nobles join with Wallace? Will the Scots win their freedom? Only history tells us the answer.
With elaborate costumes, vivid battle scenes, and a noble hero as its focal point, Braveheart is more than your typical run-of-the-mill action movie. Part history, part Hollywood heroism - its timeless idealism strikes a cord with every viewer. In fact, the movie itself led to a revival in nationalistic pride that fueled the successful Scottish independence movement of the 1990s. It’s a testament to the strength and character of the real life William Wallace. A thousand years later, his enring legacy continues to transform the European landscape, and Mel Gibson captures the noble warrior’s passion with an awe-inspiring Academy Award-winning masterpiece.

BRAVEHEART is set in Scotland in the 1200s. It tells the true story of William Wallace who was a famous commoner who led his people in a rebellion against the English. The movie is of epic proportions, length and grandeur. We learn the entire history of William Wallace from the age of 8 until his death.
Mel Gibson, in what I found to be his best role ever, plays the grown up Wallace. Gibson directs the movie as well. The story is full of fascinating history of which I knew little. I have a good English history background but was surprised at what little early Scottish history I knew. Wallace wants to live in peace and ignore the English atrocities he has witnessed, but circumstances force his hand, and he declares war on the English. His battle cry is freedom and many poor people follow him in his quest. The story itself is quite compelling, and the script is excellent.
The political intrigue among the Scottish nobles makes you wonder whose side they are on. As the story unfolds, you come to realize that they are only interested in enriching themselves and do not care about their own people. They constantly counsel Wallace to compromise his ideas in order to achieve some lesser, but more practical solution. His vision is a singular one of freedom for his people. I found myself thinking of Gary Cooper in THE FOUNTAINHEAD and the similarity between his role and that of Gibson's. All of the leaders who were the "wisest" urged constant compromise on their rising young stars in both movies.
Actually, the movie most like BRAVEHEART is GETTYSBURG for both had huge and realistic battle scenes with wave after wave of humans charging each other and dying. Of course, many people will compare BRAVEHEART with ROB ROY. They are both about old Scottish heroes, and in my book, BRAVEHEART wins hands down. Finally, you may find yourself thinking of the Judas story from the Bible except here the movie has a plethora of Judases.
One example of the quality of the script is that the writer manages to introce a very funny character without it seeming like merely a plot device, which of course it is. This character is a mad Irishman who steals every scene he is in with his dialog. I laughed out loud many times. Although there was little humor in this serious tale, there was just enough to keep me from ever tiring even though I had to stay seated for three hours.
Too often period pieces seem like merely exercises in style. I found QUEEN MARGOT to be one such movie. Here the wonderful costumes and set decoration feel totally authentic but in a natural way. I felt like I was actually in the thirteenth century where people's faces were frequently dirty and in general personal hygiene was minimal. When they made their kills in battle or in revenge, I could sense how close they were to animals then. The blood would splat on their faces, and they could just as easy have been wolves.
I have been to Scotland many times and it is gorgeous. In a low key but quite impressive way, the cinematography makes one feel the beauty and the isolation of countryside. The music with the recurring and haunting melody of the lone Scottish bagpipe sets a sad and yet serene tone and mood.
BRAVEHEART runs a long, but well worth it, 2:52. I would not want it shorten. It is rated R, but NC-17 would be more appropriate. It is THE goriest movie I have ever seen and that too I would not change because it allows one to vicariously live through what actual battles in that period would be like. Please be warned that you will see almost every part of the human body being chopped off or stabbed in one scene or another. Imagine any physical horror, and there is probably a scene of it in BRAVEHEART. Nevertheless, there was not one scene where I thought the violence was gratuitous. I would let older teenagers see the movie, but would be careful with impressionable younger ones.

When pagan Saxons invaded Britain pushing the native Celtic tribes back in the mountains of the west and the north of the country they couldn't have known what difficulties they leave to future generations. One of the difficulties were Scots, though they weren't much affected by the pagan invasion.
Throughout the history, Scots (as a tribe from Ireland was in 360 mentioned by Romans) had a changing luck in battles, whoever they fought. They had had many various allies and fought against many various enemies, including their former or future allies (politics).
Originally based in Ireland, the Scottish tribe later established their kingdom on the west coast and isles of today's Scotland (between years 501 and 503). Generally, they were never good friends with tribes which lived on the isle, called Britannia by the Romans, before them; perhaps because they came from Ivernia, today's Ireland...
The intolerance between the two sides resulted in many battles and rebellions. In 600, 300 Edinburgh horseman were killed by the English, in 1014 king Malcom II defeated the Danes, four years later another victory was won on the river Tweed, at Carham, against the army of Anglo-Saxons (particularly Northumbrians). On the other hand, king Duncan was defeated by the English and killed by famous character of the Scottish history, MacBeth, who is defeated in 1057 by Malcolm Canmore in the battle of Lumphanan etcetera etcetera.
Then, in the year of approximately 1272, William Walace is born in Ellerslie. He is fated to become one of the most important characters of the history of Scots. In age of twenty-five years, he kills sheriff (originally shire-reeve) of Lanark and a revolt is unleashed. Perhaps many Scots were waiting for a leader to emerge, because the same year Wallace defeats the English at Stirling Bridge.
His luck changed when he was defeated at Falkirk in 1298. In 1305, he is betrayed and executed brutally, his head being mounted on London Bridge.
That is a very rough outline of a life so very important, of the life of William Wallace, a thorough Scot, exactly the William Wallace about whom this movie is. His father was killed by the English, his wife was murdered by the sheriff of Lanark (which is a reason why the sheriff ended up equally) - no mercy could have been awaited from a man that had never seen mercy on the side of his enemies.
Braveheart is a heroic epic told compactly and relatively objectively, noticing everything important that most probably happened in the life of William Wallace. After all, it doesn't have to be historically exact - it is a legend and even if it was "only" a legend, it would be a most impressive one.

Back in 1995 when I first saw this movie I was wowed, it was a cinematic epic and one which I thoroughly enjoyed.... a few years later when I met my future spouse I was subjected to this movie on a weekly basis and now I cannot bare to watch it.
Anyway back to the movie, if you have been living under a rock and haven't seen it here's the basic story Mel Gibson plays William Wallace a Scottish highlander who leads his people in a uprising against the English monarch.
Now just so you know this film however "based" on historical events is completely inaccurate, Wallace was in actual fact a Scottish Noble (his family was rich), Wallace never had a wife, and the French princess Mel gets jiggy with would've been around 8 years old at the time, the only real truth in the movie was that he was hung drawn and quartered and he lead an uprising...the rest is Hollywood bullsh*t.
I'm giving the film 4 stars because if you are unaware of the historical inaccuracies and you haven't seen it 100 times you will be entertained, its a good movie.

当苏格兰风笛的声音奏响，镜头像戴在鸟的翅膀上一样，幽雅地掠过藏青色的山峦，白雾从小河上升腾起再散开，镜头不断地拉近，树林间出现了人马的影子，电影就开始了。一个男人的声音在此时响起：“我将为你们讲述威廉姆华莱士的故事，英国的历史学家们会说我在说谎，但历史是由处死英雄的人写的……”在父兄的葬礼上，小Wallace在众人的怜悯中没有说话，一个人默默的感伤。更加年幼的Murron一直在关注着他，当众人都离开的时候，小女孩挣脱了母亲的手，从平静的土地上摘下了一朵紫色的蓟花送给小Wallace。当他接过花的时候，那是我在电影中唯一一次看见他的眼泪大滴大滴地流淌在眼眶之外。他的眼泪可以忍受看到被吊在房顶上扭转着苍白面容的尸体时恐惧，可以忍受失去至亲时的莫大悲痛，却承受不住一朵野花的关怀。说是宿命也好，他们此后的人生便因为这次的邂逅谁也逃不了对方的宿命。长大成人的他们在曾经的小村庄重逢，在教父的见证下秘密地完婚，在月色树林中完成了人生中重要的成人礼，一切顺理成章而无限平静。正如Wallace所希望的那样，他希望过着平静的生活，成家、娶妻、生子。本来我以为他们的爱情会更加长久和轰烈一些的，没想到却因为Murron被英国的军官割喉而死而让他们的“在一起”戛然而止。
失去了爱人的Wallace再也找不到平静的可能，心中注定属于英雄的抗争和对自由深深的信仰让他成为了神话般的领袖。我看到的苏格兰的男人们是穿着裙子上战场，光着屁股挑衅，光明正大地侮辱敌人的。为了所有的人而抛弃了自己的人就是英雄。成了英雄以后的Wallace用脑子打仗，用身体屠戮，捍卫自己除去爱人后最后的信仰。马背上的人生荡气回肠，刀光剑影中的铁血柔情热烈。
在金属的铿鸣和溅血的战歌中，因为错信，因为背叛，因为脆弱，战场成了坟场，还穿着苏格兰裙的尸体互相压着，插满的刀剑，被骑兵的马蹄碾碎的脸。妇女们在悲伤地寻找无数相似的尸体中属于她们的丈夫、兄长、儿子、父亲，无限悲凉残酷。有人说，无数的生命被层层叠叠的沙土埋葬，直到沉陷到大地是最深处，一切的感情和生命一同消失。历史的代价是惨重的，人类用血铸造辉煌，用血铺垫和平。
Wallace最后还是义无返顾地去奔赴用死亡换取的赌注，在最后等待死亡的过程中，他对爱着她的王妃说：“每个人都会死，但并不是每个人都真正的活过。”独身一人的时候，在死亡前在狱中的最后一刻，他也会祈祷：“我很害怕，赐予我力量去面对死亡吧！”因为他也不知道他是否能在莫大的痛苦中将自己的信仰和尊严捍卫到最后。当英国的人民把他当作叛国罪人一样唾弃，为他的即将死去而欢呼，当他看见刑场下儿童对着他的死而微笑的时候，我知道那样的无知是一种莫大的伤害。当他饱受疼痛，在生命的最后，深深地吸满最后一口气，在众人都以为他请求开恩的时候，他用一生的力量大喊了一声：“freedom
”本来我以为只要我不说话，我就不会哭的。但是在那一刻，我竟不知不觉让眼泪流了下来。十年前，也有很多人曾经为这样的一幕哭过。这是一种深深的震撼。
Wallace终究是死了，曾经两度失信的Bruce在阵前对着苏格兰人，深深地吸一口气，喊道：“你们曾经和华莱士一起流血!”他抽出长剑来，“现在，请你们跟我一起流血吧!”
苏格兰高地人振奋了，他们发出了震天动地的叫喊声：“Wallace——Wallace——”于是，他们打得如诗一般美丽，打得一点都不失苏格兰人的面子，为自己赢得了Wallace同样信仰和追求的自由和胜利。
那把无数次在Wallace手中出现的剑被插在一大片绿地上，剑柄上红色的绸带一直飘扬到影片的最后，就像是胜利者的墓志铭。
苏格兰风笛再次响彻的时候，我已经无法继续平静了。勇敢的心像英雄一样的难得。
我相信，电影是活生生的艺术。但是生活是更加真实的，赤裸裸的电影。
